What is the ER&L Forum?
Bonnie Tijerina (ER&L Conference Coordinator) and conference planners have created this blog for a few reasons:
1. We had several blogs on the ER&L Learning Community (Moodle) site and wanted one place for them all to live.
2. We wanted a neutral place to migrate discussions that were beginning on the blog that was erams.org
3. To fill a need for continued discussion after the ER&L Conference
4. To create a place to share ideas and for conference planners to get feedback about future ER&L Conferences, programs, etc.
Why do we need ER&L Forum?
We need a place to focus on improving the current state of libraries, to create and share what we are doing, and to define the future direction of products, services and content. To create a community, an understanding, and a vocabulary about how we need to manage and make accessible our electronic content which is taking over more and more of our materials budgets.
Who Should Care?
Those who are eager to visualize a library not built around a print resource management model but willing to conceptualize the library which is focused on user access and library management of online resources & services.
Librarians, Technologists, E-Resources Vendors, Library Administrators, Creators, Publishers & Preservers of e-content, and all others who want to ensure proper access to electronic content for library patrons.
