Download or read book ARL Preservation Statistics 2002-03. A Compilation of Statistics from the Members of the Association of Research Libraries written by Mark Young (Comp) and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents data from 123 U.S. and Canadian research libraries that were members of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) during the 2002-2003 fiscal year. Since 1987-1988, the number of preservation programs managed by a preservation administrator has grown 66 to as many as 80 in more recent years, with 78 in 2002-2003. Shifting trends have made themselves evident in many categories. Preservation expenditures for ARL's 115 reporting member libraries were $97,833,909 in 2002-2003, which reflects an inflation-adjusted increase of 17% since the survey's revision in 1996-1997. Total preservation staff dropped to 1,746 FTEs in 2002-2003, after being over 1,800 FTEs in each of the last two years. Although all three levels of conservation treatment dropped from 2001-2002 levels, Level 1 and Level 3 treatment had seen unusually large upward spikes last year, and 2002-2003 amounts are more in line with what they have been throughout the last decade. Microfilming activity decreased to 50,397 bound volumes, the smallest amount of microfilming recorded in the history of the survey. Availability of external funds plays a critical role in preservation activities. In 1988, the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) began a multi-year, expanded cooperative preservation microfilming program, in which ARL libraries have participated extensively. However, it appears that cuts in the NEH budget have also negatively affected availability of external funding for preservation, which fell constantly from a high of $11,090,547 in 1992-1993 to a low of $4,917,732 in 1997-1998. In recent years external expenditures have been up and down, with the 2002-2003 figure of $7,326,613 representing a 7.4% increase from 2001-02. The data contained in the "Library Data Tables" are descriptive indices of preservation activities in research libraries, including preservation staffs, expenditures, and productivity. A copy of the ARL preservation statistics questionnaire and instructions, as well as footnotes to the statistics, is included. An appendix lists ARL member libraries as of June 1, 2004. (Contains 6 footnotes, 2 graphs and 16 tables.) [For 2001-2002 statistics, see ED498299.].

Book excerpt: This report presents statistics on how Association of Research Libraries (ARL) member libraries spend money on electronic resources. This report indicates that expenditures for electronic resources account for 25%, on average, of ARL institutions' library materials budgets. ARL libraries reported spending more than $228 million on electronic resources, with a total of $21,470,716 in additional funds spent on their behalf through a centrally funded consortium for purchasing electronic products and services. More than $13.1 million was spent on document delivery/interlibrary loan services. Expenditures for electronic serials have increased by 171% since the 1999-2000 survey and by more than 800% since they were first reported, in 1994-1995. In every year since 1992-1993, average expenditures on electronic resources have increased at least twice as fast, and in some cases more than six times faster, than average library materials expenditures. The following information is included: (1) Summary of electronic resources and library materials expenditures in ARL university libraries, 1992-1993 to 2002-2003; (2) Summary statistics for university libraries, 2002-2003 (2-part); (3) Expenditures for computer files, electronic serials, indexes and reference tools, and full-text items by library; (4) Expenditures for bibliographic utilities, computer hardware and software, and document delivery/interlibrary loan by library; (5) bibliographic records, in-house use, and services by library; (6) Rank order of expenditures for electronic materials as a percent of total library materials expenditures, ranked by percent for 2002-2003; and (7) Rank order of expenditures of electronic materials as a percent of total library materials expenditures, ranked by expenditures for electronic materials, 2002-2003.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to better control costs for print and digital resources—from recognized leaders in library administration! Academic libraries have been using electronic resources for several years, yet library administrators still find that the evolution from print to digital takes meticulous planning. Collection Management and Strategic Access to Digital Resources is a collection of eight presentations from the 2004 University of Oklahoma Libraries Conference focusing on the ways academic research libraries can successfully make the transition from print materials to electronic resources. Respected authorities offer effective strategies to efficiently coordinate the use of digital materials in the contemporary research library. As acquisition budgets tighten and fresh emphasis is placed upon finding strategies to afford needed resources, library administrators find it increasingly difficult to meet the challenge of providing information to today’s students and scholars. Collection Management and Strategic Access to Digital Resources focuses on innovative, practical solutions to difficult problems facing librarians and library administrators today and in the coming decade. The book is carefully referenced and includes tables and charts to clearly explain data. Collection Management and Strategic Access to Digital Resources presents and thoroughly discusses: the impact of digital resources on libraries, research, and learning in history and science open access of research results beyond the print journal regime Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and electronic journal subscriptions an introduction to Ithaka—a not-for-profit organization that acts as an “incubator” for electronic projects and research for libraries evaluations—and innovative alternatives—of the rules and beliefs of electronic resource collection the historical and contextual considerations that have made collections cooperation difficult to achieve—and a global resources network initiative that may answer the challenge transforming scholarship’s role by offering access to the raw material of research—offering new opportunities for access to a greater range of information the responsibilities of research libraries in a rapidly evolving digital world Collection Management and Strategic Access to Digital Resources is essential reading for senior library administrators in public, special, and academic libraries, as well as acquisitions, reference, collection development, and systems librarians.
Download or read book Divided Libraries written by T.D. Webb and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the highly trained library workforce now available and the vast and growing array of packaging information and knowledge, libraries have the capacity to become pre-eminent places of learning, research, and teaching. Yet, despite this potential, libraries remain divided from their constituencies and their governing bodies, be they students, faculties, university administrations, municipal governments, or ordinary citizens. Indeed, many modern university administrators, viewing librarians as ancillary citizens in academe, have allowed their libraries to wither under the burden of shrinking budgets, staffing inadequacies, and deteriorating facilities. This thought-provoking volume by a 35-year veteran of academic libraries identifies, diagnoses, and provides remedies to the damaging divisions in and between libraries and librarianship, arguing that the processes of teaching constitute the genuine context in which to steer librarianship into the future.
