Dear Colleagues,
The University of Liège Library (Belgium) is organizing an Erasmus
Mobility Staff Training week focused on services, projects and policies
that libraries can deploy and promote to increase and ease access to
materials that do not belong to their print or electronic holdings. The
Week’s theme will be: */Beyond the Library Collections. We don’t have
it? Here it is!/*
To further the exchange of experience and ideas, the number of
participants in the week will be limited to 25. Candidates are strongly
encouraged to take an active part in the week by submitting a paper for
a session.
_Suggested topics_:
* Centralized and shared collection storage with other libraries
* Long term loan projects between libraries
* Extensions and services like Unpaywall, Open Access Helper, OA
Button: usage and promotion
* Print on demand services for patrons
* Document delivery during/post Covid-19
* Challenges and impacts of new interlibrary loan policies and
workflows (from /fee /to /free/…)
* ILL and its impact on acquisitions policy
* Interfacing solutions for better document delivery
* Legal aspects: Controlled Digital Lending (CDL), DRM, licenses,
copyright…
* New and improved workflows in document delivery and ILL services
* New partnerships and collaborations between libraries for better
delivery and ILL services
The week’s Proceedings will be published as Open Access within the year.
The final articles can be in English, French or German.
