ALCTS Collection Development and Electronic Resources Committee Program

“Print in the Post-Electronic World: When Just in Case Becomes Just in Time”
Sunday June 26, 2005

1:30 – 3:30 pm

Intercontinental Hotel Seville Ballroom

Join us for a moderated panel discussion which will focus on how the 
decisions we are making about our print collections are being impacted by 
our growing and developing electronic collections.  Issues such as off-site 
(shared or not) repositories, archiving, access, print subscriptions are 
all part of the mix that will be discussed.

  Speakers will include:
    * Bill DeJohn – Executive Director of Minitex, the statewide consortium 
for Minnesota.  Bill will speak to the collection development responses of 
both educational and public libraries.
    * Jim Dooley – Head of Technical Services at the new UC Merced library 
– Merced is a new campus with a new library and Jim will be talking about 
how decisions were made about their collection, which is predominantly 
electronic.
    * Carol MacAdam - Associate Director for Library Relations at JSTOR – 
Carol will talk about her perceptions of the impact their program is having 
on member libraries collection activities

  The program is co-sponsored by RUSA CODES, LITA Electronic 
Publications/Electronic Journals Interest Group.
