ALCTS Webinar: Standards for Collection Management - Part 1
Tuesday, October 07, 2014
Sessions begin at 11 am Pacific | 12 Mountain | 1 pm Central | 2 pm
Eastern and last about an hour.
This webinar is the first session of a two-part series intended to
familiarize attendees with the practical applications of standards and
best practices for collection management in an increasingly electronic
world:
*
usage statistics (COUNTER/SUSHI)
*
licensing (SERU)
*
publisher/platform changes (Transfer)
Jointly developed by librarians, system providers, publishers, and other
community members, standards and best practices help grease the wheels
to ensure better interoperability between systems and automate some
tedious tasks. Presenters will introduce specific standards and describe
how they work and their utility in helping libraries manage local and
shared collections.
The second session
<http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/upcoming/webinar/100914>will be
held on October 9, 2014 and will cover:
*
quality of data in knowledge bases (KBART)
*
presentation and identification of e-journals (PIE-J)
*
demand-driven acquisition (DDA) of monographs
*
accessibility and openness of journal articles (open access
indicators [OAI])
Learning Outcomes
Attendees will have gained a greater awareness of existing and
developing standards and best practices that help us better manage our
increasingly electronic collections.
