Registration is Open For "E-books in Libraries: An Update" Online Conference

Registration is now open for the November 16 online conference, "E-books in Libraries: An Update." Sign up for a day of exciting and informative programming.

In the morning, Saint Edwards University librarians Tina Buck and Sara Hills will present “A DDA Program Four Years Later: Evaluation and Sustainability.” They will discuss DDA as a collection-management tool, illustrating with use, cost, and collection data. Included will be a brief history of DDA at a small liberal arts university, focusing on the rationale for adopting the DDA model and the impact of increasing costs and reduced availability of academic publishers.

In the afternoon, Jackie Ricords of IGI Global will present "New Research on Ebooks: Library and Publisher Partnerships." This session will cover new research in three key e-resources trends:

• Your Content is Time-Sensitive
• Know Your Users
• Competing in the Age of Free and Open Education

Two concurrent sessions will run throughout the day.
