  • 1.  ALAIR documents posted to MAGIRT Members Library

    Posted Feb 25, 2019 12:26 PM
    In 2016 MAGIRT's Emerging Leaders team worked on a project to document how to use the ALA Institutional Repository to archive our our organizational documents, including agendas, minutes, reports and other documents.  Today I added the project files to our MAGIRT Members Library.  The two most important documents are the Basic Submission Procedures and the Metadata Application Profile. This Library is open to all MAGIRT members; you may access it by selecting the "Browse" tab on the MAGIRT home page in ALA Connect, and then selecting MAGIRT Members Library.  Try it out!

    Best,
