2006 ACS National Fall Meeting
How Library Collections are Changing Migrating from print to digital
Moving print copies to storage
Buying digital versions of new and old materials
Linking to open access resources digitized by others
Digitizing public domain and special collections materials

Collections in Major Research Libraries Both/AND – Both Print AND Digital
Subjects and languages: broad range to support programmatic needs
Document Types: text, images, data, maps, scores, geospatial, multimedia, databases, etc.
Content Providers: all countries, full range of content providers, including locally produced resources
Collections in Major Research Libraries Quality: highly-curated, peer-
reviewed, compiled, predicted
Access: desktop, onsite, storage, restricted, single-/multi- institution, open access
Importance: unique, core, important, useful, on-demand
Preservation: high, medium, low
Collection Development/Management During Transition Period Primary functions of library: acquire,
organize, make accessible, preserve
Print: acquire/pay, catalog, access control, shelve, provide long-term access, usage data from circulation statistics
Digital: acquire/pay, catalog, level of access, conditions of use and IP rights, ingest/link, and store, preserve and/or refresh, usage data from many sources

The Library as Place
“The library should be a gathering place that fosters a sense of community, fosters collaboration among students and faculty, and support discovery and retrieval of information resources, both print and digital. It should also allow instruction and discussion opportunities, provide quiet, comfortable individual and group study space and areas where users can socialize.”
Michael Keller, SULAIR Library Director
Library Collections & Services Acquire materials to support
educational and research needs Archive Materials in Institutional
Repository Offer circulation, course reserves, and
document delivery services Provide training and assistance in using
resources Develop subject portals and other
finding aids Provide access to computers, printers,
scanners, etc. Support remote users
Skills Needed by Professional Library Staff Subject expertise (degree and
knowledge of the literature). Masters in Library Science degree or equivalent experience.
Ability to successfully integrate digital information resources, technologies, and services in research library programs.
Ability to contribute to the planning and implementation of new and improved services and resources.
Skills Needed by Library Staff Demonstrated supervisory and
management expertise.
Project planning and implementation skills.
Strong communication skills, both oral and written.
Key Goals Collaborate with and understand
