Overview
In this hands-on course you will learn to create an e-library
collection development plan for free and fee-based Web-accessible
resources for a patron community of your choice. Students will focus
on developing a collection plan for one library patron group of their
choice, for the kind of library they work in (e.g., public libraries,
academic library, special library, etc.) Patron groups may include:
Healthcare consumers,faculty, students, researchers, general public,
children, etc. This is a five part course. Each part includes
lecture, discussion and hands-on activities that will step
participants through creating or assessing a collection plan for
developing a e-library collection:
collection plan abstract or introduction
collection strategy
collection organization plan
collection maintenance plan
We will use examples of well planned and designed e-libraries on the
Web to illustrate each part.
Audience
Librarians and other information specialists who need to develop or
expand e-library collections of high quality Web-accessible
information resources. Some experience with information searching on
the Web is assumed. Experience working with the target patron group
chosen is assumed. Level of instruction is intermediate.
Participants should know how to use e-mail and a current standard Web
BrowserMozilla/Firebird, Netscape 7.0 or IE 5.5 or higher is
preferred. Some HTML or HTML editor experience will be useful.
