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.
Originally presented on Tuesday, October 7, 2014, and covered:
- 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.
