RLG’s Updates Mission & Agenda

The agenda was updated about a week ago. RLG is now part of OCLC. From the document:

Since July 2006, RLG Programs and OCLC Research staff have been working together to develop an agenda that reflects the needs of the community, builds on existing expertise, and expands the community’s ability to act in concert to shape the future. The major benefit from the combination is our ability to bring the strengths of both staffs to bear on an array of initiatives to benefit the entire community…

These program areas have been identified as important for Programs and Research:
+ Supporting new modes of research, teaching, and learning
+ Managing the collective collection
+ Renovating descriptive and organizing practices
+ Modeling new service infrastructures
+ Architecture and standards
+ Measurement and behaviors
