Repository for Oft Used Library Documents
This idea continues to pick up steam, thanks TJ for getting it going. Library Techlog has these ideas:
So library_geek wants a little knowledge management, eh? I know I talked about this idea of sharing things like forms and the like on the Techlog before, but it's buried in the archives somewhere (metadata, where art thou metadata?) Anyway, dLIST the Digital Library of Information Science and Technology, might be willing to accommodate material of this nature. The About page states: "We are actively seeking partners who can contribute 'papers', 'instructional materials' and 'informetric materials' to the project." I'm e-mailing Anita Coleman to get her thoughts on that. If not, Blake Carver's LISHOST sounds like a good place to put such a repository- pick some eprints or digital library software and get started.The MLX: Maybe this is another model for a place to stow our collective librarianly resources.
