Give Them What They Want? Patron Driven Acquisitions for eBooks (LYRASIS)<br>
<br>
Patron driven acquisitions for eBooks is not a new concept but interest in it
is growing thanks to broader adoption of eBooks in libraries and patron
expectations, driven in part by consumer experience. Just what are the rewards
and risks of the patron driven approach, and are there best practices? In this
session, we will provide an overview of concepts and issues from the librarian,
patron, and vendor viewpoints and hear actual case studies from librarians who
are planning or have implemented successful (and unsuccessful) patron driven
programs. Timothy Cherubini, LYRASIS' Program Director for East Region Services
and Shared eBook Collections Librarian leads the discussion with contributions
from several librarians from the field.<br>

October 5 (12-1 pm)<br>
Breaking New Bread: Cookbooks in the Library (Booklist)<br>
<br>
>From celebrity-chef cookbooks to the burgeoning interest in organic and
sustainable foods, things are heating up in the cookery section of today's
libraries. In this hour-long webinar moderated by Adult Books editor Brad
Hooper, Booklist columnist and readers' advisory librarian Kaite Mediatore
Stover and Booklist's cookery reviewer, Mark Knoblauch, discuss trends in
cookbook publishing and the important place of the cookery collection in public
library services. They will also be joined by Michael Friedberg, Marketing
Manager, John Wiley & Sons; Katrina Kruse, Marketing Manager, Houghton
Mifflin Harcourt; and Amy Greeman, Publicity Director, Storey Publishing; who

<br>
October 5 (1:30-3:30 pm)<br>
Beyond MARC Records: Patron Discovery of eBooks (LYRASIS)<br>
<br>
What is the most common advice to librarians who are adding eBooks to their
collections and want to know how their patrons will find them? Add MARC records
to your catalog. Although a wise step, is it enough? Increasingly, discussions
of discovery suggest a focus on being where the patrons are, not relying on
directing patrons to library catalogs or web pages. With eBooks, the issue is
exacerbated as the concept of a "book" and its authority in an online
world are challenged. Samual Klein, Wikimedia Foundation Trustee and Director
of Outreach for One Laptop Per Child; Mike Sweet, Credo Reference CEO, and librariens
discuss the issue in a panel moderated by LYRASIS' Timothy Cherubini.<br>
