Strategic Alliances and Partnerships in Interlending and Document Supply

 

11th Interlending and Document Supply Conference in

 

Germany / Hannover: 20 - 22 October 2009

  

 

Participants are invited and welcome to submit papers for presentation

Conference papers should reflect the conference theme: 

Strategic Alliances and Partnerships in Interlending and Document Supply

 

 

Topics of interest include:

 

1) Cooperation in document supply and interlending

This Topic includes examples 

- of national collaborations which could serve as role models

- fields of interlibrary lending and document supply worth copying,
which would also work in other library and information environments 

 

2) National and international experiences in resource sharing

Going beyond the limits of classical document delivery and interlending,
the main focus lies on examples of virtual resource sharing.

Subjects of discussion are virtual libraries, portals and collaborative
resource enrichment (e.g. tagging, web 2.0)

 

3) Open Access activities

The worldwide kick-off for Open Access was the "Budapest Open Access
Initiative" in 2001. What was achieved since then? This topic tries to
give a state-of-the-art and forward looking report on Open Access
projects (national, international, subject-related, business models,
role of publishers, economic aspects)

 

 4) Rights & Distribution / Licensing / Economic aspects

Investigations of regulations on the working fields of libraries, e.g.
how have the national adoptions of copy right reforms affected the
workplace and opened the options for the development of new library
policies and services? 

Case reports of Libraries, Library Associations etc, are welcome 

 

5) Future Directions / The Future of. + panel (with of 5-8 persons)

Collection of propositions and research papers surveying the future
