ARL SPEC Kits Now Available

by edlener, posted on November 4, 2014

We have just added a subscription to the full collection of online SPEC Kits from the Association of Research Libraries.  These gather information from member libraries on a wide range of policies and practices in research libraries.  Examples of topics covered this year include support for faculty publishing, next-generation learning spaces, digital collections assessment, and open source software.  Many of the kits include practical, real-world examples of the materials and approaches used at other libraries.   All kits from #292 onward (2006 to present) are available on the ARL site.  Older ones are available through the HathiTrust.
