Dear Colleagues,


I thought you might be interested in sharing this call for papers with 
other colleagues via e-mail or Facebook-- or even better, submitting an 
abstract yourself! I’m guest editing this issue of Against the Grain; 
details below.



Thanks!

Jonathan

interested people)

Call for Papers: Going out on a limb -- pushing the boundaries of DDA

We are inviting you to submit brief abstracts (1-2 paragraphs) prior to 
July 5, 2012, for a special fall 2012 Charleston Conference issue of 
Against the Grain on DDA/PDA (demand-driven/patron-driven 
acquisition/access).

Following a year and a half after the last special issue on this topic, 
it’s time to take a look at where we’ve landed, and what’s down the road.

We are interested in a variety of perspectives. Distributors, 
publishers, vendors, consultants, library patrons, and library workers 
from all types of libraries are encouraged to send your ideas to 
jharwell_at_rollins.edu.

We’re particularly interested in:

· what sorts of models could appear in the next generation (DDA of 
articles, multimedia, etc., with access beyond library catalogs, e-book 
platforms, & discovery services)

· radically redefining library selection, “collections,” and approval 
plans with DDA

· DDA usage analysis by subject & cost

· to weed or not to weed DDA records (triggered or non-triggered)

· the current state and the future of short-term loans, manual DDA, and 
extended access

· results of consortial DDA projects

· perspectives on, or plans for, DDA from small presses, scholarly 
presses, journal publishers, database vendors, etc.
