Show moreCollection development is challenging for academic libraries due to the rising cost of e-resources. Over the past five years, the Case Western Reserve University Library has been experimenting with new ways to actively address these issues through specific strategic initiatives. We have been successful in reallocating one-time funds to user-driven purchasing initiatives, such as demand-driven and evidence based acquisitions models. Our usage data proves these models are cost-effective and aid in the research process by offering a wealth of content at the user’s point of need. This initiative has demonstrated that small changes can make a big impact and show value to our stakeholders.

Show moreHow do faculty and graduate students provide input for collection development? How well have librarians understood the research needs of recently tenured faculty or recent graduates? Four librarians from four different collection areas — the humanities, the social sciences, and 2 unique areas in engineering — all set out to see if evaluating the collection against recent publications by faculty and students can foster stronger engagement between them and the subject collectors in their areas.

Show moreWhile digitization is not a digital preservation plan, methods used to execute digitization work can support future preservation efforts. Our approach in supporting digital preservation work is to conduct image analysis of the camera and resulting images to ensure FADGI compliance. Ensuring the quality of our preservation files increases the reliability of their survival in a digital preservation storage environment. This presentation covers how to use device and object level targets during the imaging process, what the importance of those targets are, and how exactly they're used to analyze the quality and accuracy of a camera's output. Running images through the Golden Thread software results in many points of data that enable us to understand our output from a scientific perspective. We will demonstrate how we review our analysis results and determine the necessary adjustments to make in our capture process for true FADGI compliance.
