ALCTS webinar: Organizing the Evaluation of Electronic Resources
Date: May 4, 2011
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, 2pm Eastern.
Description: Looking for a better way to organize your evaluation of
electronic resources? The electronic resources evaluation process is
multi-faceted and includes a seemingly endless range of resources and
tools involving numerous library staff. If not well managed, the
evaluation process can become increasingly fragmented and inefficient.
This Webinar will first review the electronic resources evaluation
process in detail to understand and appreciate the myriad of details
required to prepare for and maintain a valuable evaluation of electronic
resources. Participants will then be shown a solution: A Springshare
LibGuide to organize the evaluation process for electronic resources.
