Synopsis
Keep up with new concepts in this fast-changing field! The Internet, distance learning, and remote access to central information banks used to be the stuff of science fiction. Nowadays, academic librarians reap the benefits--and face the practical consequences--of the staggering advances in information technology. Off-Campus Library Services presents the advice and suggestions of experienced librarians to help you develop effective, easy-to-use off-campus information services, including distance learning.
This informative book reveals the secrets of planning and implementing off-campus services. It also helps veteran librarians add user-friendly features and solve common problems on their existing systems. Off-Campus Library Services explains the technology, addresses management issues, and offers usable suggestions for program development.
Off-Campus Library Services explores the central issues of these new services, including:
- training issues for library staff
- Web site development
- technical and information support
- changing roles for librarians
- the uses of conferencing software
- library support for Web-based courses
- library agreements and how to successfully negotiate them
- and much more!
Off-Campus Library Services will become a trusted reference for librarians involved in planning, administering, or updating distance learning resources.
