ALCTS Webinar: Standards for Collection Management - Part 2
Thursday, October 09, 2014
Sessions begin at 11 am Pacific | 12 Mountain | 1 pm Central | 2 pm Eastern and
last about an hour.
This webinar is the second 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:
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])
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 first session will be held on October 7, 2014 and will cover:
usage statistics (COUNTER/SUSHI)
licensing (SERU)
publisher/platform changes (Transfer)
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.
Who Should Attend?
Anyone involved in working with or supplying electronic resources: librarians,
publishers, aggregators, subscription agents, and system providers.
