The Carolina Digital Library and Archives (CDLA) was established at UNC-Chapel Hill in 2007. The CDLA builds and manages digital collections at Carolina to improve access to intellectual and cultural resources in all formats. You can read more about the CDLA at http://cdla.unc.edu.
Richard V. Szary, interim director of the CDLA, director of the Louis Round Wilson Library, and associate university librarian for special collections, will present an overview of the CDLA program and services and will describe challenges and opportunities of working directly with scholars to define the future of the digital collection and services. Some of the discussion will center around issues raised in an article about Stanford University in the April 3, 2009 Chronicle of Higher Education (http://chronicle.com/free/v55/i30/30b00601.htm?crnt).
A tour of the CDLA will be offered before the presentation. When you register for the presentation, you will be asked to indicate if you will attend the tour.
This event is co-sponsored by the Odum Institute's Working Group on Scholarly Communication and by the Faculty Center for Excellence.
