Building Blocks of a National Print Preservation Network: A Strategic Forum

The Preserving America's Print Resources (PAPR) Conference emphasized the urgency of libraries acting together to strategically preserve the nation’s print heritage materials. This is particularly challenging to libraries confronting exorbitant and rising costs of maintaining electronic resources.

At this year’s annual meeting of the Council of Voting Members, speakers will report on progress on four major collection fronts since the PAPR Conference. Speakers will invite comments and ideas from the Voting Members Council. (For the action agenda, please see the PAPR draft report.)

The forum will focus on:

  • Monographs
    Nancy Davenport, Director of Acquisitions, Library of Congress, will speak about the issues that the Library is confronting in developing its archiving strategy for print monographs. She will invite feedback from Center members on these issues.
  • Federal Documents
    Judy Russell, Superintendent of Documents with the Government Printing Office, will present a status report and welcome ideas and comments on the GPO’s strategy to optimize archiving of printed and other tangible legacy government publications in its system of depositories.
  • Newspapers
    Bernard Reilly, President of the Center for Research Libraries, will discuss how the Center and its partners propose to work in concert to ensure access to and survival of important news content.
  • Journals
    Melissa Trevvett, Vice President for Programs and Services, Center for Research Libraries, will present an update on emerging print archiving programs throughout North America.

The Impact of CRL

Stories illustrating CRL’s impact on research, teaching, collection building and preservation.

Helping Libraries Deal with ‘Big’ Data

At CRL’s 2018 Global Collections Forum, Julie Sweetkind-Singer, Head of Branner Earth Sciences Library and Map Collections at Stanford University Libraries, discussed how satellite imagery and large geospatial datasets are being used as source materials for scholars in a variety of disciplines, and the new types of library support they require.

Unique Arab Diaspora Materials Saved for Future Scholars

In FY 2018 the Middle East Materials Project (MEMP) microfilmed Arab-language publications from several diaspora communities in non-Arab countries, including the UK, Japan, the U.S., and Poland. These resources continue to affirm MEMP’s role as a provider of rare and distinctive documentation for scholars.
