“Which shelves do you keep the e-journals on?”:
How to effectively promote electronic library resources
Liverpool John Moores University, Wednesday 8th June 2005
In a response to delegate feedback, the Multimedia and Information
Technology Group (North West), have organised a one day conference about
promoting electronic library resources. The conference will address the
issues surrounding the effective promotion and marketing of the vast array
of electronic information resources, currently available to the library
world.
The first part of the day will aim to demonstrate existing good practice in
this particular field with speakers from the academic, health and public
library sectors. The afternoon will allow an opportunity to find out about
current research projects and findings within e-resources promotion. To end
the conference, there will be a presentation from Professor Mark Stiles, an
e-learning activist, who will talk about how e-libraries fit into learner-
centred e-learning systems.
There will be a panel discussion and an opportunity to ask questions at the
end of the presentations.
