Subject: Scholarly Communication Toolkit

The ACRL Scholarly Communication Committee is creating a web-based 
toolkit designed to introduce librarians, faculty, administrators and 
other campus professionals to the scholarly communication landscape. 
The intent of the toolkit is to provide educational and advocacy 
materials about scholarly communication topics.  The toolkit is
intended 
to complement and extend the excellent materials already available from
the Association for Research Libraries web site.  ACRL members work in 
all types of higher education institutions and the toolkit will attempt
to address what is similar across institutions, and what may be 
different for institutions of differing types and sizes.

We are interested in hearing what would be useful to you for self 
education, and what information you would like to have in order to 
educate others on your campus.  What would be helpful to you in your 
advocacy efforts?  Are there differences on your campus based on size
or 
type of institution?  What information should be present in the toolkit
so that you can refer others on your campus to this site?

Please reply directly to Karen Williams,

  If there is enough interest, I will summarize responses for the list.
  Thank you in advance for any thoughts you have to share.
