Описание: Libraries of all types are increasingly pooling resources to purchase, store and provide access to materials in response to changes in the information environment and user expectations. The challenges of providing access to increasingly diverse content demand innovative approaches, risk taking, and close collaboration to leverage the respective strengths of all stakeholders. Shared Collections provides a snapshot of models for curating content at the collective level and highlights strategies for developing and managing shared collections and leveraging resources to meet readers’ complex information needs.  The book is divided into three parts: Part 1 outlines general considerations influencing relationship building when developing a shared collection. Part 2 comprises case studies ranging from local and regional efforts to consortia approaches that leverage institutional resources in developing a ‘collective collection’. Part 3 suggests future directions for retrospective as well as prospective collection building and management as libraries transition from local isolated collections to robust collaborative stewardship of the intellectual record. This book will be essential reading for library managers, systems librarians, library technicians and all those who are engaged in developing strategies for building, managing, and providing access to shared collections that meet the needs of current and future generations of readers.

Описание: This accessible how-to guide to extensible processing will show you how to reduce your processing backlog, maintain control of the stream of archival materials flowing into your collection, describe large aggregations of archival materials and improve user experience. A recent OCLC Research study found that an Internet accessible finding aid existed for only 44 percent of archival collections. With the strain of processing backlogs, many collections go undescribed and are essentially hidden from your users. Extensible processing offers an alternative: establish a baseline level of access to all your holdings, then conduct additional processing based on user demand and ongoing assessment. This flexible approach emphasizes decision-making, prioritization, and adherence to archival principles and standards. The goal is to give you the tools, confidence, and freedom to improve user experience. Author Daniel Santamaria provides an accessible how-to guide to extensible processing, including the following: the six key principles of extensible processing; international case studies, ranging from one-person shops to large universities: learn from examples of processes, systems, software, and metadata that were used successfully by others; eight steps in an extensible workflow process; how-to-use collection assessment surveys to reduce backlogs; and systematic step-by-step approach to reducing accessioning. Readers will learn how to use Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS) and Encoded Archival Description (EAD) and be up-to-date on recent developments in digitization of archives and alternative strategies such as low-resolution scanning and repurposing existing metadata to ensure that baseline descriptions of all collection materials held by your archive or library are available online as quickly as possible.

Описание: Manuscripts, Politics and Oriental Studies commemorates the life and works of Johann Gottfried Wetzstein (1815-1905) as a scholar, manuscript collector, and consul in Berlin and Damascus. Beyond research into Wetzstein's own time, special attention is given to the impact his efforts to acquire manuscripts have had until this day. Several contributions also illustrate contemporary developments that give context to his own career as a scholar and diplomat. The particular focus of this volume allows to explore the history of Oriental scholarship not purely through the lens of academic posts and publications but encourages us to discover lifes such as Wetzstein's, without academic stardom yet laying the material foundations of textual work for generations.
