Since January 2023,Abes has been offering a new training course on Reporting and promoting electronic resources (excluding academic works), available online.

 

Why?

Electronic resources produced by publishers and aggregators currently occupy a growing place in the collections of libraries and documentation centers. These documentary objects raise specific reporting issues, due to the sheer volume of documents made available, the evolving nature of the collections and the multiplicity of tools for reporting titles and access (national and local catalogs, knowledge bases, discovery tools).

The aim of this training course is to provide a toolbox for all documentation staff involved in the management and/or cataloguing of digital resource collections, through the use of tools made available byAbes : Sudoc and its many services, and the BACON national knowledge base.

 

For whom?

  • Electronic documentation managers
  • Coordinators Sudoc
  • Cataloguing correspondents
  • Catalogers at Sudoc,
  • Collection managers
  • Any library staff interested in enhancing the value of electronic resources (excluding academic work)

All the webinars making up this training course, together with the support materials, exercises and Q&A files, are available on theAbes self-training platform:
