UKSG E-Resources for Further Education: Promoting Your E-Resources
Successfully
Wednesday 5 December 2012
The Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, London SW1
UKSG presents the fourth in their popular series of events focusing
specifically on managing e-resources in the Further Education sector.
This seminar will address the issues and practicalities of providing and
managing effective high quality e-resource collections within Further
Education libraries. During the day there will be opportunities to hear
best practice case studies in managing e-resources and in evaluating their
use, together with advice and strategies from current practitioners in
colleges, and an opportunity to learn the latest about JISC’s eBooks for FE
project.
The event will also give delegates the opportunity to meet with e-resource
vendors who specialise in providing e-resources to the Further Education
sector, as well as being a platform for discussion, problem solving and
networking.

interesting.”

calendar.”

organisation of event. Best course I have been to for several years! Thank
you!”
