Meeting Content:
I. Announcements
* Nancy Kushigian, Director of Shared Print Collections, Systemwide Library
Planning, will attend a special Collections Council meeting on August 31,
10-11am, Room 303
* UCB's standing subcommittee on CDL-negotiated journal packages is
analyzing our use of bundled Blackwell titles. Camille Wanat will
participate in Patty's behalf in a UC conference call this Friday about
Blackwell. The UC Academic Senate is drafting a UC-wide alert to faculty on
these negotiations.
* The Library has received official notice that we will take a 6% cut to
our operations budget for 2004-2005. There are no cuts to collections
dollars, nor are there any new funds to offset inflation.
II. Draft charge re: one-time call on projects
CC discussed a draft charge to a CC subcommittee re the principles and
procedures we might use to offer a one-time call for collections-related
projects. Patty will incorporate CC's comments, and ask for volunteers from CC.
III. JSTOR dim archive project
* Ann reported that some faculty have personal copies of JSTOR titles that
they would be willing to contribute to the JSTOR dim archive. Patty agreed
that we could show these issues on the JSTOR spreadsheet.
* Fleur Helsingor is almost done posting helpful information to the list of
JSTOR titles; selectors can expect to see the list sometime this week.
* Gary and Norma stressed the importance, as expressed by SS and Sciences
Councils, that JSTOR digitization of titles include ALL matter, including
editorial guidelines, advertisements, etc.
* Patty reported that Michaelyn Burnette reports that we hold some special
issues of JSTOR titles that JSTOR seems unaware of. JSTOR welcomes this
kind of help in filling out runs and ensuring that digital content is complete.
* JSTOR will be paying CDL for the dim archive -- in an amount that should
offset the operational costs incurred at the RLFs.
* It remains to be seen what might happen to this contract if UC is not
willing to provide enough of the JSTOR titles.
* If the JSTOR contract goes forward, it will only commit us to providing
the titles now on the list. As JSTOR adds new sets, new contracts would be
negotiated.
IV. Continue review of Brainstorming list
CC has adopted these projects from their brainstorming list and otherwise,
to be addressed in the fall term:
* discuss budget options for 2004-2005
* one-time call for collections-related projects
* one-time call for collections
* call for new faculty start-up funds
* discussion of development with Dave Duer and Tom Leonard (Patty will
invite them to an upcoming CC meeting.)
* address issues of information, accounting and management of donor funds.
(To be discussed at a future CC meeting.)
* further discussion and possible task force on collections analysis and
statistics tools. (Patty will invite a vendor or user of ACAS, OCLC's
collections analysis tool. Patty will also meet soon with Phyllis Bischof
to discuss how best to meet this year's Title VI reporting requirements.)
* e-book working group
* discussion of UCB's wishes for shared print collections
* Early Bird on LOCKSS and CDL digital preservation
CC will look again at the projects list in January.
