Community collections, (like The Great War Archive www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ww1lit/gwa), help to harness the collective resources of a wider community and spread the costs of creating and contributing to a collection across the education and public sectors. A community can also be harnessed to enrich an existing collection with tags or comments (like Galaxy Zoo, www.galaxyzoo.org). Oxford University would like to invite those interested in such projects to take part in a free RunCoCo workshop on 26 May (http://projects.oucs.ox.ac.uk/runcoco/events/index.html). [read more...]

The reality of the current economic climate means that it's imperative to provide pertinent services, utilise the most appropriate tools, and explore alternative approaches, regardless of your information environment. Even if you’re managing information outside a traditional library setting - as web designer, content evaluator, portal creator, systems professional or independent researcher - you must continue to offer services that are relevant and cost-efficient.
