e-Books Unleashed
Conference Track
1. Managing e-Resources & Licensing
Keywords
e-Books, DDA, Collection Development, Use Driven Acquisitions, e-Resources
Learning Objectives
Participants will learn about different DDA models and specific considerations of open profile, unmediated DDA. Participants will also learn how open profile, unmediated DDA can be used to inform evolution to a use driven collection development/management plan.
Abstract
Ever wonder what would happen if users made library collection decisions? In 2013, University of Nebraska Omaha launched unmediated, non-profiled DDA of more than 460,000 e-books. Could this radical approach work for you? And where might it lead? We encourage everyone interested in DDA to join us for this interactive discussion, which will utilize Poll Everywhere to obtain audience data and jump-start participant conversations.
