A referenceable list

Lorcan

My colleague Constance Malpas has created an interesting Worldcat List in support of ongoing work:

Selected print-only, refereed scholarly journals in the humanities with fewer than 50 aggregate library holdings. Holdings count limited to recs containing ISSN and English-language cataloging. [RLG Prospective Journals Preservation Project – sample titles]

This is an interesting list in itself. What struck me was how nice it was to be able to publish a list so that it was publicly referenceable, the data could be shared, and the items link back to library holdings.

University Futures are shaping Library Futures

Libraries are not ends in themselves, but serve the interests of the organizations of which they are a part. As university emphasis varies around research, education and career poles, we can expect to see libraries evolve to support those emphases more strongly.
