Show Me The Money!
June 29th, 2006Ed Vielmetti said something very important today:
“Electronic collections are often tucked away into an odd corner of a library’s web site, requiring separate logins from the main site and not integrated into the regular holdings or information presented. When you can find them, though, there’s a ton of useful stuff available that’s completely absent from the Googlesphere.”
How much money does your library or library cooperative spend on electronic databases? Does that correlate with the amount of marketing that you put into these important tools? What have you done to show off these most important assets of your Web presence? Tell us in the comments below. I’ll assume that if there are only a few comments, it’s not as important to you as it is to Ed and me. 
(On a similar note, I’m noticing that the comments have been used a lot more than usual – keep them coming!)
