II. Transition: 2004-2005
Deferred to next meeting
III. Jaeyong Chang's funding report and review
J. Chang's request for the remaining half of an initial $30K grant for
one-time funding was discussed. CC supported his request.
IV. DiLib
* Funding request: GLBT Life. CC supported the request from Beth Sibley and
Myrtis Cochrane for a request of DILIB funds to participate in a Tier 2
purchase of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Life database. This
resource will replace the NISC Sexual Diversity database which DILIB
currently pays in full. Margaret will notify selectors involved (along with
Jody Bussell and Jim Gordon) that the request for funding of the GLBT Life
was approved. As with all databases, the selectors will be asked if this
resource provides for perpetual access.
* There was a discussion on the nature of the DILIB fund and the fact that,
unlike other funds, it has a built in growth of $75K per year. Margaret and
Jim will get together to analyze just how much the DILIB fund grew in this
fiscal year. They will present this data at an upcoming CC meeting so that
the group can continue this discussion.
* Standard form for submitting DiLib requests: CC approved the draft form
that was distributed to members. Margaret will incorporate the editorial
changes to the DILIB form discussed in the meeting and post it on the staff
Collection Development page.
V. Technical Services Review
CC concluded filling out the Technical Services Review Survey.
VII.Updates
* CDC: Bernie reported on the most recent Collection Development Committee
(CDC) meeting. Among the highlights:
- There has been much discussion about shared print both retrospective
shared print (e.g. CoreStor, IEEE, JSTOR, etc.) and prospective (ejournal
collections such as Lippincott and ProjectMUSE). With all collections,
there is a need to not only pay for the collections but also for the
processing. A small task force, of which Bernie will be a member, has been
formed to develop principles for establishing prospective print collections.
- CDL continues to negotiate licenses for IEEE, Lippincott, ECCO, GLBT
Life, several film databases and the INSPEC archive.
- BIOSIS is transitioning from the OVID platform to ISI (with unlimited
ports) in mid-July; CDL is planning for a 6-month overlap with Ovid access.
- Licensing problems with the Harvard Business Review content in EBSCO
Business Source Premier seems to have been resolved.
- Access to ABI/Inform expires on September 1.
* AUL Collections
Bernie reported that the search committee is moving forward on hiring an
external recruiter.
* Referrals
Science Council has discussed the document and sent on suggestions to
Rebecca. Social Sciences Council and Arts and Humanities Council reps will
discuss the document at their next meetings.
* One-time Projects
Gail reports (via Bernie) that the projects are going well.
* Dollar devaluation task force
John reports that requests were solicited from selectors and that Jim is
currently working on folding selector requests in the planning. They expect
to have something to share by the end of July.
