Making Research Books More ‘Discoverable’ Online | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

"If a dissertation rolls off the presses, and no one reads it, does it make a difference? It’s a quandary no freshly minted PhD wants to ponder. Yet the longform research typical to disciplines like English, history and sociology can be difficult to share and find online."

Spotlight on the digital: how discoverable are your digitised collections? | JISC Digitisation and Content Programme

Spotlight on the digital: how discoverable are your digitised collections? | JISC Digitisation and Content Programme | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Over the past few months we’ve been busy setting up Spotlight on the Digital, an eight-month project (Jun 2013-Jan 2014) which Jisc is running in collaboration with RLUK (Research Libraries UK) and SCONUL (Society of College, National and University Libraries) as part of the Jisc co-design programme. This is a pilot programme including six projects that was set up to test new approaches to innovation with some of the Jisc key stakeholder organisations.

WHY?
The need for Spotlight emerged out of the concern that digitised collections are not as “discoverable” as they could be through the channels and devices most commonly accessed by users.
