There are still places left on Renew Training's Understanding E-Journal
Technology: a course for non-technologists. Members of ALPSP, SSP, and ASA
are all eligible for affiliate discounts.
The course is designed to help delegates understand the issues and
challenges faced by library customers when setting up access to E-Journals.
Recent feedback has indicated that delegates value and enjoyed the course:
"Overall a very worthwhile experience. I learnt a lot" - Production Manager
"Very well presented and organized, excellent real life examples given" -
Customer Service Supervisor
"Very clear and informative. Highly relevant to my job" - Customer Service
Supervisor
"Good coverage of topics, nice collaborative atmosphere, very instructive
and useful" - Marketing Manager
"Complicated information explained clearly" - Sales Manager
"wish I had done this training years ago" - Marketing Manager
"Highly knowledgeable trainers" - Managing Editor
Sales, marketing and customer service staff, senior management, new
technical hires from outside the industry and even production and editorial
personnel would all benefit from attending this course and will help them
deliver a better service to their customers. The course is business-centric
- clearly positioning technologies in the context of the industry issues
they aim to solve. Participants will learn how technology is used throughout
the delivery of e-journals from publisher via library to the end-user.
The course will educate attendees about key issues affecting the delivery of
e-journals and how these affect licensing, customer service and even
pricing. Participants will also learn what necessitated technological change
in libraries and publishers and how to solve some of the key problems posed
by library technologies such as link servers, A-Z lists, federated search,
web scale discovery, DOIs, OpenURL, Athens and Shibboleth.
