Collaboration in Collections: Libraries, Users and Information Providers: Call for Papers for ACD Section at IFLA 2013 in Singapore
World Library and
Information Congress 2013
Acquisitions and Collection Development Section
79th IFLA General Congress and Assembly
Singapore
17-23 August 2013
Conference Theme: Future Libraries: Infinite Possibilities
http://www.i fla.org/acqu isition-coll ection-devel opment
The Section’s 2 hour Open Session is: Collaboration in Collections: Libraries, Users and Information Providers
Building and maintaining relevant collections requires innovation in these challenging times as libraries establish a greater digital footprint and explore different channels of scholarly communication and information delivery.? Working together with publishers and vendors to find ways to meet the diverse expectations and needs of library users demands new models of communication, programming, organizational infrastructure, reliance on multiple and changing technologies, and accompanying services.? This Open Session will emphasize how innovation and collaboration within libraries, among users and with the publishing and provider community will advance the role of collections.
Suggested subthemes, with a focus on innovation and best practices for potential speakers to consider:
Responding to users’ expectations how & when?
Role of Open Access
Impact of eResources, challenges with acquisitions, licensing, pricing, perpetuity, use
Cooperative collection development
Resource relevance
Relationships with information providers
Collection assessment
Selection and de-selection
Discovery of collections
Promoting collections
The section invites speakers from all library environments (academic, public, government, school, special) who can address any of these themes in a 15 minute presentation at the WLIC meeting.? The goal is to create a diverse program of 4-5 speakers representing libraries from different parts of the world who have different experiences to share. Proposed papers must be original and not have been published elsewhere. It is hoped that all presenters will be able to prepare a formal paper, as well as a PowerPoint presentation; however IFLA realizes that it may be impractical to require that every speaker prepare a formal paper and PowerPoint slides. If that is the case, those speakers must prepare a substantial abstract, including references with URLs and bibliographies to accompany their presentation. All selected papers will have abstracts and links to full papers on the conference website. Presentations can be made in any of the official IFLA
languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, but an accompanying translation of all papers into English must be provided. Discussion at the conclusion of the presentations will be highly encouraged.
Important Dates with which to comply: 31 January 2013
