The Digital Library Program, Supporting a New Paradigm for Digital Scholarship

Abstract

As interest in digital scholarship becomes more widespread, and more units within the Libraries and across the IU campus become interested in developing digital collections, the DLP is re-evaluating how it can best support the growing needs of the university and the wider community, and adjust to developing expectations. In this talk, the Associate Director for Digital Library Content and Services will briefly discuss the history of digital collections development, both at IU and beyond, before examining the new paradigm for digital scholarship and describing the DLP's plan for supporting that new paradigm.
