*Apologies in advance for posting to multiple lists.*
*ALCTS webinar: Services Lead to Success: Strategies for Repository Growth*
*Date: February 8, 2012*
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.
*Description: *Institutional repository managers often focus on content
acquisition - how to recruit, build and grow collections. However, a
strategy for truly sustainable growth should focus not on the content,
but on the services that the repository provides to the broader
institutional community (faculty, students, administrators). The primary
goal of this webinar will be to provide participants with
service-oriented strategies for building and growing institutional
repository programs.
The main focus of the content will be communication strategies.
If time allows, some of the ethical/legal considerations related to IR
management will be explored. As part of this portion of the
presentation, participants will be directed to government (and academic)
resources on copyright, FERPA and human subjects/animal/biological research.
*Learning outcomes:*
1. Participants should be able to understand and articulate strategies
for communicating with institutional stakeholders about the benefits of
contributing to an IR.
2. Participants should also be able to understand and articulate
potential ethical/legal issues related to IR management.
*Audience*: All those with an interest in establishing or expanding an
institutional repository
*Presenter: Isaac Gilman* is Scholarly Communications and Research
Services Librarian at Pacific University (Oregon). He manages Pacific's
institutional repository, Common knowledge, and provides
editorial/technical support for several open access journals published
at Pacific. Isaac also lectures regularly on research methods, teaches
an undergraduate course on scholarly journal publishing, and is
co-editor of the new "Journal of Librarianship and Scholarly Communication."
