  6. Project 7 “Collaborative Collections” • Context and scope… • identify models for collaborative collection development for both current collections (retrospective) and future acquisitions (prospective). • focused on 3 collection formats: e-resources, serials and monographs. • optimisation of staff subject expertise to benefit service delivery across all NSLA libraries.

  7. National Core Set - Background

  8. National Core Set - Background • October 2003 - Senate Environment, Communications, Information Technology and the Arts References Committee on “Libraries in the online environment” (role of NLA) • 2004-2006 – National Site Licensing Forums • 2007 - 4th National Site Licensing Forum – 9 May 2007 and the launch of Electronic Resources Australia (ERA) which is “a consortia for Australian Libraries for collaborative purchasing of electronic resources” • 2008 - NSLA Consortium – NSLA’s The Big Bang: Creating the new library (2001-2009) plan. • 2010 - NSLA E-Resources Consortium

  9. NSLA Consortium – Progress Report 2008 The objective of the NSLA is to enable all Australians to have a defined set of online quality information resources that are of national interest and relevance. By defining a core set and working towards providing access to these e-resources through the NSLA libraries will mean that all Australians can potentially have access to this information as a member of their NSLA library…

  10. Role of NSLA e Resources Con… • NSLA E-ResourcesConsortium tasked with evaluating, costing and recommending a core set of e-resources for NSLA libraries. • Four person evaluation subcommittee was formed to evaluate, cost and recommend an ideal set of unlimited remote access e-resources for the NSLA libraries. • A core set of 20 products covering 19 different subject category/product types was recommended by the subcommittee in June 2010. • Two phase approach recommended.

  11. Implementation Approach

  12. Implementation Approach Phase 1A – Products (9 products) Oxford Reference Online Premium (SLQ subscribes) AustLit: the Australian Literature Resource (SLQ subscribes) Ancestry Library Edition/ Plus (SLQ subscribes) Company360 – Universe (SLQ subscribes) Literature Resource Centre (SLQ subscribes) Times Digital Archive, 1785-1985 (SLQ subscribes) Health & Wellness Reference Centre (SLQ subscribes) Encyclopaedia Britannica Online (SLQ subscribes) Informit Complete package (SLQ subscribes to 5 of the 9 titles)

  13. Implementation Approach • Phase 1B – Products (7 products) • Oxford English Dictionary (SLQ subscribes) • Macquarie Dictionary & Thesaurus (no sub) • MacquaireNET (no sub) • Oxford Music Online (SLQ subscribes) • Oxford Art Online (SLQ subscribes) • Science Resource Center (no sub) • SMH Archive,The Age and • The Western Australian Newspaper • package (no sub) • Still being negotiated • SLQ subscribes to all but four of these titles

  14. Implementation Approach Phase 2 (4 products) - yet to be completed. • News & Current Affairs – Current Australian and International newspapers • Titles under consideration: “NewsBank” and “ANZ Newsstand” • Humanities & Social Sciences – Law • Titles under consideration: various Thompson and LexisNexis titles • 3. Multi-subject databases – International • Titles under consideration: “MasterFile Premier” (Ebsco) and” ProQuest 5000” • 4. Science – Technology & Standards • Titles under consideration: “Standards Online Premium”

  15. Current Status

  16. Current Status Pricing • Option 1 unlimited users for all products. • Option 2 current level of access plus entry level access for new subscriptions. Option 2 is the Consortium’s preferred option

  17. Current Status • Next Steps • Negotiation with RMIT Publishing on a multi-year deal for Informit • Development of a marketing plan for e-resources (including key messages to public libraries) • Negotiation on pricing of the 7 products in Phase 1B to commence in January 2013

  18. Implications

  19. Implications • Insignificant increase in SLQ recurrent e-resource budget – SLQ already provides remote access to most of the core set titles. • The normal access arrangements will remain in place: Queensland residents will need to acquire an eServices card or establish a QPL account to gain remote access to the core set titles. • Statewide access licence provisions will remain in place for Encyclopaedia Britannica Online, Health and Wellness Resource Centre and Ancestry Library Edition (onsite access only). • Queensland residents will get access to additional titles to which SLQ may not otherwise have chosen to subscribe. • NSLA focus on monitoring usage and “marketing” or the Core Set.
