CD Policy for Open Source ebooks
From:
"Shoemake, Linda" <Shoemal_at_arc.losrios.edu>
I did receive several responses regarding the open source ebook policy.
All except one were requests for me to send out the information that I
gathered.
The only real input that I had was in the message below (thanks Jeff).
When we develop our policy I will send it to everyone. Thanks for your
interest.

Linda,
My hope would be that we wouldn't do any "collecting" of these. That
is, what I want in my catalog is reliable meta-data about open access
materials. In that vein, what we would need is a metadata repository
that we could harvest and import/maintain in whatever local catalog of
materials our patrons use. This would be similar to importing all the
DOAJ titles into our ILS from Serials Solutions, SFX, etc.
Best,
