Description
As is true at many colleges and universities, the Otis College of Art and Design faculty and staff are actively exploring Web 2.0 technologies, resulting in an explosion of new digital content—learning objects, video demonstrations, interviews, audio podcasts, as well as portfolios, blogs, and wikis. Although the Otis Library owns digital asset management software, it has been a challenge to routinely archive this digital content. A range of issues is explored in this case study of how one library is confronting its changing role in relation to the educational activities of the College. Questions are also raised about the role that librarians play in archiving born-digital content.
