Abstract
ABSTRACT Online content hosted on web-based platforms has many benefits for libraries and their patrons. Vendors will often migrate to newer platforms as new developments and products emerge. Although migrations are meant to improve services, content platform migrations are complex, resulting in problems regardless of careful preparation. In this presentation, a publisher and an academic librarian offer their experiences and challenges with online content platform migrations. A co-chair of the National Information Standards Organization’s Content Platform Migration Working Group shares the group’s work to establish content migration best practices.
期刊介绍:
The Serials Librarian is an international journal covering all aspects of the management of serials and other continuing resources in any format—print, electronic, etc.—ranging from their publication, to their abstracting and indexing by commercial services, and their collection and processing by libraries. The journal provides a forum for discussion and innovation for all those involved in the serials information chain, but especially for librarians and other library staff, be they in a single (continuing resources) department or in collection development, acquisitions, cataloging/metadata, or information technology departments.
