Two decades after the advent of the Web, digital collections are a regular part of academic library business.

In particular, they discussed collections developed around faculty teaching and research interests, student-created collections and exhibits, library publishing programs, and library support for digital field scholarship. In this seminar, Mark Dahl, NITLE fellow and director of the Aubrey R. Watzek Library at Lewis & Clark College, and panelists Mark Christel, director of libraries at the College of Wooster, Anneliese Dehner, digital projects developer at Lewis & Clark, Isaac Gilman, assistant professor and scholarly communications and research services librarian at Pacific University, and Allegra Swift, head of scholarly communications and publishing for the Claremont Colleges Library, as they delve into new directions for digital collections. These slides are from Isaac Gilman's presentation.

“[...] the gap that should most concern us in research libraries today is not the one that lies between physical and online documents, but the one that lies between commodity and non-commodity documents.”

“[T]he Libraries will […] tangibly model the attributes that the University seeks to instill in our students: excellence in scholarship, diversity of thought, and the pursuit of just and sustainable communities.”
“[The Libraries’ publishing services represent] an opportunity for the University to simultaneously advance its mission—by contributing to our global community through the publication of open access scholarship—while also further distinguishing ourselves from our regional and national peer institutions.”
