SUMMARY:UKSG E-Resources Technical Update: London
DESCRIPTION:Course summaryMany of us working directly with e-resources in libraries would like to feel more confident in our understanding of the related technology.  Managing e-resources and making them available to end-users is quite different from dealing with print products\, but many of us have moved from one to the other\, picking up expertise informally.  As a result we probably all have gaps in our knowledge and understanding\, and the need to gain a proper balanced overview of the technical environment is crucial if we are to do our jobs effectively. The UKSG E-Resources Technical Update course will give you a good understanding of the underlying technicalities involved in e-resource set-up and delivery\, including e-journals\, online databases and e-books\, and will help you feel more confident in your day-to-day work. Why you should attendThe course will be invaluable for anyone from a non-technical background working withe-journals and other e-resources.  The atmosphere of the day will be friendly and supportive and participants will be encouraged to share any issues or problems they encounter in their work. Course level and previous knowledge requiredIt is recommended that those completely new to dealing with journals should first attend the UKSG Introduction to Journals and E-Resources Today\, a one-day seminar run in a variety of locations which covers all aspects of the serials and e-resources industry and features an introductory technical session.  If you are not completely new to journals no previous knowledge is required. Learning objectives• Learn how to overcome common problems in implementing e-resources• Have the tools to help you decide the best way of setting up access to e-resources in your institution/organisation• Be confident that you understand the technical landscape when dealing withe-resource providers. Fee UKSG members:  £195.00 + £39.00 VAT [20%] (total £234.00) Non-members:   £245.00 + £49.00 VAT [20%] (total £294.00) The fee includes refreshments and lunch. Venue The Institute of Materials\, Minerals and Mining (Library)1 Carlton House TerraceLondonSW1Y 5DB      Tel.:  020 7451 7300 (Reception) Course presentersThe course is presented by Simon Inger and Tracy Gardner from Renew Training who between them have over 40 years’ experience in scholarly publishing. Feedback from ERTU courses held in 2012“An excellent course containing a wealth of information – almost too much content for one day!” “The section on link resolvers and authentication methods was particularly helpful.” “The speakers were relaxed and very knowledgable.  They were able to respond to all questions.  They managed to explain complex topics methodically and in non-technical language – excellent.” “I would recommend colleagues involved in e-resources attend every year\, such is the pace of change.” Course contentPlease refer to the day’s schedule for times.  The course is continually updated\, but core content will include: Classifying E-Resources• Identifying the major players involved in e-resource provision• The differences between gateways\, platforms\, publisher websites\, aggregators\, search engine-based gateways and library gateways. Reader Behaviour• Where do users choose to begin their research?• What are the differences in preferred starting points for researchers and undergraduates?• Advances in user navigation. Managing User Navigation• Linking through URL and OpenURL\, the development and importance of Link Servers• The role of library web pages\, OPACs\, A-Z lists\, federated search and web scale discovery• Accessing Open Access content. Managing Authentication• User authentication methodologies• IP address ranges\, proxies and firewalls• Athens\, federated access and Shibboleth• OpenID developments.
