Abstract

This session addressed some of the practical issues arising from open access. The Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries (CARL) links members with open access resources through the Gold Rush service, which includes 80 open access title lists. Librarians at the Colorado School of Mines have collaborated to develop a subject specialized list of titles - for their own library, and to share with all CARL members through Gold Rush. E-LIS, the Open Archive for Library and Information Studies, provides a means for librarians to share our own work with colleagues.

5. Administrative Issues in Planning a Library End User Searching Program. ERIC Digest.

Author

ERIC Clearinghouse on Information Resources, Syracuse, NY. and Machovec, George S.

Abstract

This digest presents a reprint of an article which examines management principles that should be considered when implementing library end user searching programs. A brief discussion of specific implementation issues includes needs assessment, hardware, software, training, budgeting, what systems to offer, publicity and marketing, policies and procedures, and evaluation. It is concluded that end user searching represents an important step in allowing patrons to be self-sufficient in meeting their information needs and that libraries need to participate in this phase of the information-gathering process or face the possibility of a reduced role in the future. References are provided. (KM)
