Location: Kent A-CLinks to recorded presentations were removed from Sched on June 15. All registered attendees have received an email with direct links for access. Recordings will remain available only for registered attendees until they are released to the public on NASIG's YouTube channel, after an embargo.Industry standards and recommended practices have done much to streamline efficiency for all stakeholders in the e-resource life cycle. For instance, MARC is a universal standard for bibliographic records which can be ingested by most library systems. KBART is a format for transmitting package information and target URLs for link resolvers and OpenURL functionality. COUNTER helps libraries keep track of usage statistics in a standardized way, across content providers. Organizations like NISO have also helped steward new standards and best practices to help address specific pain points in the e-resource librarianship. Come hear from the Standards Committee member experts about a few of these standards, where they sit in the e-resource cycle, why they are so important, and the potential consequences of when proprietary practices prevail. Specific standards covered in this session will include KBART, EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), and COUNTER, from the library and publisher perspectives.
Join the conversation for this session in the Discord Channel "Standards and Best Practices".
