Collective Insight: "Getting off the Island: Collaborating to Create Boundless Collections"
Date: Tuesday, October 15
Time: 9:00 am to 3:30 pm, Pacific Time
Live streamed online from Loyola Marymount, Los Angeles, CA
Collections that support research are evolving as technology continually influences information-seeking behaviors and techniques. Today, collections can extend well beyond the walls of any one library sparking new and unconventional partnerships across library types. These unique collaborations test the boundaries of current practice in the way they approach research needs and exploit the benefits of the network.
Join us and our event partners, SCELC and Loyola Marymount University, for this interactive program where we will explore current and future opportunities to share our print and electronic collections at network-scale. Register today to join the conversation.
