Call for Papers: Going out on a limb -- pushing the boundaries of DDA
From:
Jonathan Harwell <JHARWELL_at_Rollins.edu>


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

(please pardon any duplication---just trying to spread the word to 
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/ <http://www.against-the-grain.com/>//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* <mailto: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 
<http://www.ebrary.com/corp/newspdf/ebrary_extended_access.pdf>

· results of consortial DDA projects

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