Book excerpt: The Association of American Universities (AAU) Research Libraries Project was designed to involve universities in the process of shaping the new electronic environment faced by research libraries. The project has engaged university expertise to develop recommendations for action at the national and institutional levels to assure that the perspectives of research universities can play a defining role in the evolution of national information network policies and practices affecting university education, research, and scholarship. The work of the project was carried out through three task forces whose results are reported here: (1) Acquisition and Distribution of Foreign Language and Area Studies Material; (2) A National Strategy for Managing Scientific and Technological Information; and (3) Intellectual Property Rights in an Electronic Environment. Each report contains an overview of the issue; recommendations of the task force; and proposals for policy implementations. (JLB)

Download or read book Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography written by Charles W Bailey Jr and published by Charles W Bailey Jr. This book was released on 2009-07-10 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography presents selected English-language articles, books, and other printed and electronic sources that are useful in understanding scholarly electronic publishing efforts on the Internet.

Peter Jacso said in ONLINE (vol. 27, no. 3 2003, pp. 73-76): "SEP is compiled with utter professionalism. It reminds me of the work of the best artisans who know not only every item that leaves their workshops, but each component used to create them--providing the ideal quality control. . . . The selection of items is impeccable. I have yet to find journal articles irrelevant to the scope of the bibliography. SEP could be used as a benchmark in evaluating abstracting/indexing databases that proudly claim to have coverage of electronic publishing, but do not come close to SEP."

Book The Future of Resource Sharing

Download or read book The Future of Resource Sharing written by Shirley K. Baker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, first published in 1995, addresses the key issue facing libraries on how to survive in an age of interdependence. Increasingly, individual libraries must act as if each is part of a ‘world library’ Instead of being self-sufficient, each library, from the small public library to the large research library, must find ways to put materials from this ‘world library’ into the hands of its patrons and must stand ready to supply materials from its own collection to others, both quickly and cost-effectively through interlibrary loan. It explores the critical questions for making resource-sharing work, with particular emphasis on interlibrary loan. Cooperative collection development, economic decision models, consortial arrangements, copyright dilemmas, and the possibilities of technology are explored and a national project to revamp interlibrary loan and document delivery is described and future directions posited. Authors present historical perspective, explore the future, and report from multiple perspectives.

Book The National Electronic Library

Download or read book The National Electronic Library written by Gary Pitkin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1996-06-30 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Information Infrastructure will bring information to the doorstep of every household. Librarianship must respond to this development through the National Electronic Library. Librarianship as a profession must set the information agenda if it is to be a viable and influential entity in the electronic environment. Traditional library services are being redefined by technology, and the concept of the National Electronic Library must combine the roles of the academic institution, public enterprise, and library education. This professional reference is a guide to assist librarians in planning for the future. The volume maintains that the growing electronic environment is driving a cultural transformation in which libraries must examine and understand what libraries have been, what they are, and what they need to be. Libraries need to participate actively in this transformation in order to remain the central providers of information and related services. The book explores the National Electronic Library as a concept and formal organization. Library services, collections, and the physical facility are examined in terms of present and future needs based on the rapidly changing electronic environment, and the volume relates the future management of information to administrative structures, constituencies, public and technical services, collection development, education, and strategic planning.
