Abstract

This case study examines the intersection of library discovery technology and diversity, equity, and inclusion through featured collections at the University of Calgary Libraries and Cultural Resources (LCR). These collections feature timely or niche topics such as Open Access Week or Indigenous Heritage Month. They are created in a cooperative environment allowing an exchange of ideas between the engagement librarians requesting the creation of the collection and the technical services staff who create the collection. We are developing policies surrounding the set-up and maintenance of these collections. Recently Ex Libris implemented functionality to gather usage stats for these collections through Primo Analytics and in this presentation, we will use this newly available data to analyze the use and impact of these collections on our users.
