This informative book reveals the secrets of planning and implementing off-campus services. It also helps veteran librarians add user-friendly features and solve common problems on their existing systems. Off-Campus Library Services explains the technology, addresses management issues, and offers usable suggestions for program development. Off-Campus Library Services explores the central issues of these new services, including: - training issues for library staff - Web site development - technical and information support - changing roles for librarians - the uses of conferencing software - library support for Web-based courses - library agreements and how to successfully negotiate them - and much more!Off-Campus Library Services will become a trusted reference for librarians involved in planning, administering, or updating distance learning resources.
