  • 1.  Survey closing July 25: Would you like to have input on the future of monographic shared print collections?

    Posted 3 days ago

    I am posting this on behalf of my colleague.

    OCLC Research invites you to participate in a survey for a research project investigating the data and tools to support stewardship of and access to monographic shared collections.   

    Anyone who has knowledge of and/or supports their institution's participation in a monographic shared print program is encouraged to respond to this brief survey. This includes deans/directors, AULs for collections, collection managers and librarians, metadata managers and librarians, and resource sharing/ILL managers and librarians. We're seeking to understand the data and tools used to support shared print workflows and the gaps that may exist. Project findings will be synthesized and shared to support the operationalization of collective collections.  

     

    Please click here to take the survey 

    The survey closes soon! It's open through July 25.  

     

    If you have questions about this research, please contact Lesley Langa, Associate Researcher, OCLC, Inc., 6565 Kilgour Place, Dublin, OH, 43017-3395. Email: langal@oclc.org. 

     

    Thank you!
