An Introduction to Resource Discovery - online seminar https://bit.ly/3cblfhd
Resource Discovery is a new seminar which gives an overview of what is discovery from the point of view of librarians, content providers and the technology services. It gives attendees insight into the discovery services landscape, metadata and processes behind scenes. This seminar will take place over two days on Tuesday 25th October (am) & Wednesday 26th (pm).
Course level:
The course level is for beginners. Some familiarity with the different types of online scholarly content may be helpful, for example ejournals, ebooks and online databases. If you are new to this area, it may be worth first attending the UKSG Introduction to E-Resources which gives an overview of different types of resources and how they are published and provided online. This course is also suitable for people who needs a refresher (after a career break or moving jobs) as Discovery is a moving landscape.
Otherwise, no previous knowledge is required. In particular, please note that this is not a technical course, and no programming skills are required.
