Collaborative Collections Lifecycle Project - Establishing New Foundational Norms Recording

Filter

The Collaborative Collections Lifecycle Project (CCLP) promises to address multiple long-term challenges in library collections management and governance via the development of a suite of tools, standards, and workflows to enable collaboration and coordination of collections lifecycle tasks at unprecedented levels. This cross-industry collaboration between libraries, consortia, publishers, service providers, and standards communities is meant to ease the collective investment in the selection, acquisition, and resource sharing by distributing collection-related labor and creating new pathways for the creative application of industry standards. Users of the platform will benefit from access to more diverse collections and the human expertise related to them. The CCLP project and innovative infrastructures will empower cross-institutional and system-to-system interoperability, which will reduce duplicative investments and enable a greater re-investment in collecting unique and hard-to-find materials. It will support a greater focus on cross-sharing of work within and beyond consortia and the fundamental shift towards cultivating library excellence hubs such as print preservation communities.

Panel participants will share the latest work around the CCLP Project, including the award of a highly visible IMLS National Leadership Grant, the beginning of the NISO standardization of CCLP-related workflows, and recent discussions with potential partners around applicable use stories and personae. In addition, panelists will describe how the project will address several of their own operational challenges running organizations that strive to increase collaboration and value while being limited by current practices and ongoing market consolidations. Finally, the panelists will explore how the CCLP infrastructure will create new frontiers to allow the library community to build deeper collaborations and develop new services while enabling broader support for new markets and increased overall entrepreneurial business development.
