Professional Qualification Workshops: E-resources Collection Management [Event Ref. No. TG1/PQW9]

Twitter – #cpd25PQW9

This series is devised primarily to support candidates for professional qualifications. However, many of the events in the programme are highly relevant to all levels of library staff – who may or may not be seeking Certification or Chartership, but who wish to further their professional skills and development.

This workshop will focus on the fundamentals of e-resources collection development and management. The e-resources covered will include working examples from the Kingston University collections – e-books, journals, Special Collections, digital archives, open access repositories and databases.

By the end of the session participants will have an overview of the e-resource strategies, policies and infrastructure that support the e-resource collections which form the core of a modern Academic Digital Library. This is an interactive workshop involving a presentation, group discussion and practical group work.

Niki Wilson and Ellie Hunt, Kingston University
