  • The Case for County Law Library Consortia*
    LAW LIBRARY JOURNAL Vol. 111:3 [2019-14] The Case for County Law Library Consortia* Meredith Weston Kostek** This case study looks at the benefits found in joining statewide county law library consortia. Surveys of participating states show benefit use and preferences and indicate that while monetary benefits are found in statewide consortia, the biggest perceived benefit is in collaboration with other libraries in the network.

These libraries serve not only their local legal communities but also pro se litigants. This is especially true of government libraries, which include state, county, and court libraries. This study focuses on states’ county law libraries, which are frequently autonomous from one another. Would sharing costs, resources, and community knowledge benefit these libraries?

  • Observations on Scholarly Engagement in the 2008 Cataloging Hidden Special Collections and Archives Program
    Observations on Scholarly Engagement in the 2008 Cataloging Hidden Special Collections and Archives Program Council on Library and Information Resources March 2010 Introduction As defined by CLIR, the “Cataloging Hidden Special Collections and Archives” program aims to identify and catalog hidden special collections and archives of “potentially substantive intellectual value that are unknown and inaccessible to scholars.” By providing resources for cataloging key hidden collections and by facilitating the linking of online records, the program also aims “to construct a new research and teaching environment of national importance.” Inherent in the program’s design is a conviction that its success will depend on the ability of the library and archival communities not only to participate actively in the creation of this new environment by processing and cataloging hidden collections, but also by forging new connections with scholars. In a sense, the program is attempting to answer the call of scholars, such as Anthony Grafton, who have written of the pressing need “to bring librarians and scholars, planners and users together…to fashion what we now need … libraries that can regain their place as craft ateliers of scholarship….”1 The “Cataloging Hidden Special Collections and Archives” program is aiming ambitiously to help design, populate, and build these new “ateliers of scholarship,” hybrid physical and digital spaces requiring recalibrations of relationships between librarians, archivists, and scholars. Now entering its third grant cycle, the “Hidden Collections” program is continuing to provide a novel opportunity to observe and describe approaches to scholarly engagement as currently practiced within a diverse set of U.S. libraries and archives.

Suggestions for Local Action at UO 1 Executive Summary The state of global scholarly communications has evolved rapidly over the last two decades, as libraries, funders and some publishers have sought to hasten the spread of more open practices for the dissemination of results in scholarly research worldwide. These practices have become collectively known as Open Access (OA), defined as "the free, immediate, online availability of research articles combined with the rights to use these articles fully in the digital environment." The aim of this report — the Open Access White Paper by the Senate Subcommittee on Open Access at the University of Oregon — is to review the factors that have precipitated these recent changes and to explain their relevance for members of the University of Oregon community. Open Access History and Trends Recently, the OA movement has gained momentum as academic institutions around the globe have begun negotiating and signing creative, new agreements with for-profit commercial publishers, and as innovations to the business models for disseminating scholarly research have become more widely adopted.
