Collection Development (1)
• Toward a Cloud Library
– CLIR, Mellon Foundation
– OCLC Research, NYU, HathiTrust, ReCap Libraries
• Objective: Characterize the near-term opportunity for externalizing
management of academic research collections leveraging capacity
of large-scale shared print and digital repositories*
• Outcomes: opportunity and risk assessment based on aggregate
collection analysis; draft service agreement enabling generic
consumer library to selectively outsource preservation and access
of low-use research collections to large-scale print and digital
repositories
*From the RLG Partner Update January 7, 2010
Collection Development (2)
• CRL TRAC Audit
– Portico and HathiTrust assessments timely
– “Certification will augment CRL’s strategic archiving of
print, and support a responsible transition to electroniconly formats where appropriate.”
– Work with UC to design shared print journal archiving
effort
– “With this hybrid strategy CRL hopes to enable its
community to accelerate the shift to electronic-only
resources in a careful and responsible manner.”
