Licensing electronic resources: An introduction<https://store.mcls.org/index.php/licensing-electronic-resources-an-introduction.html>
Nancy Kirkpatrick, MCLS
Oct. 3-4, 10:00am - 12:00pm Eastern (online)<https://store.mcls.org/index.php/partnering-outside-the-box-91.html>

This basic workshop is designed for library staff who are new to negotiating licenses for electronic resources. This workshop would also be beneficial to library staff who do not negotiate with vendors, but who do work with electronic resources and/or ERM systems and need to understand license terms. [Note: this is an introductory workshop and is not geared toward experienced staff who have already negotiated licenses.] The workshop will address the basic concepts of contract law (licenses as contracts) and offer a hands-on look at the components of a standard licensing agreement.

Have you thought that your catalogers been talking a new language lately? Using terms like RDA and FRBR? RDA Resources, Description and Access is the new cataloging standard, implemented in 2013 to replace AACR2. FRBR is part of the infrastructure of this new code. What does this mean to the non-cataloger? What kind of changes should library staff and the end user expect to see as a result of RDA? What are some of the major changes between AACR2 and RDA?
