Michael, Hopefully I am not sounding ignorant but what book were you writing this chapter for? Thanks, Shelley Weyer -----Original Message----- From: SERIALST: Serials in Libraries Discussion Forum [mailto:SERIALST@LIST.UVM.EDU] On Behalf Of Michael Bradford Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2007 4:15 PM To: SERIALST@LIST.UVM.EDU Subject: Re: [SERIALST] [Fwd: FW: [SERIALST] Curriculum for a course on Electronic Resources or ER Librarianship?] Before I came to Harvard, myself and colleagues at the University of Notre Dame wrote a book chapter dealing with this topic, to be published by Haworth Press as "Electronic Resources Librarianship: The Human Element in the Digital Information Age". We look at 100 position descriptions for Electronic Resources librarians and then looked at the ALA accredited schools various curriculum to see if any of their courses addressed these needs. __________________________________ Michael L.
