Video IS an E-Resource

All recent surveys of students, faculty and library staff show the same thing - the preference for video in teaching and learning is growing at a phenomenal rate. Yet, compared to monographs, databases, e-journals and e-books, video often remains the "red-headed stepchild" in academic libraries. Our presentation will discuss overall research regarding the preference for streaming video in the academy and results from the Survey of Academic Library Streaming Video. We will describe how video is being acquired in libraries, discovery and access to streaming video collections, the amount of staff time being devoted to its curation. In addition to commercial offerings, institutions are creating streaming video content. The presenters will also describe how that content is being treated. Unlike offerings from suppliers, institutionally produced or acquired streaming video also has preservation needs and descriptive metadata requirements. Most importantly, we will discuss and demonstrate various methods for making streaming video discoverable to students and faculty.

ROUNDTABLE: Here, There, and Everywhere: Where Do MARC Records for eBooks Come From?

Ebooks proliferate, and the types of providers are almost too numerous to count.

Garbage Dump or Buffet: Librarian Adoption of Web-Scale Discovery Services

Web-scale discovery services – they’ve been around for a few years now, and librarians still have mixed feelings about them. Some consider them a research buffet, but others view them as garbage dumps of random information. Come hear librarians from a variety of libraries talk about what worked and what didn’t work in getting buy-in from (at least some of) their reference/instruction colleagues.

EZProxy for Electronic Resource Librarians

EZproxy is one of the most common tools used by libraries to manage remote access to licensed electronic resources. In many cases the administration of EZproxy falls to the electronic resources librarian. It is often difficult, however, to find information about administering EZproxy that is specific to the role of the ERL. This session is designed to expand your knowledge of EZproxy administration, offer ideas for troubleshooting access issues, provide an overview of authentication options and share examples of log file usage for assessment purposes.
