Born digital, born accessible: Making the documents and data in open scholarship accessible to all
(2024-02-13) Lim, Adriene; Lazar, Jonathan; Rosen, Stephanie S.; Woodbrook, Rachel; Carpenter, Lindsay Inge
The open scholarship / open science movement is based in part on the principle of equitable access to knowledge as a human right. But how equitable is that access if the documents and data produced in these frameworks are themselves not readily accessible to people with disabilities? In this webinar, experts will present the case for making the born-digital products of research accessible at the point of creation and will provide basic tools and techniques for making sure that born-digital documents and data are also accessible at the point of creation. This virtual workshop is sponsored by the UMD Libraries and UMD PACT and is part of a series of events at the University of Maryland commemorating the OSTP Year of Open Science.
Perspectives on Globalization of American Libraries
(Association of College and Research Libraries, a division of the American Library Association, 2019) Luckert, Yelena; Carpenter, Lindsay Inge
An introduction to the edited book by the same authors, The Globalized Library (ACRL, 2019). This article puts in perspective the historical development of American libraries and the current trends as they relate to the internationalization of collections, digitization, instruction, services, and development of library professionals. The authors argue that the American academic libraries have always been international in nature due to their external and internal environments, and will continue to be so in a foreseeable future.
