expand services into new communities and increase engagement with current users. But traditional library marketing is often geared toward reaching people who already know and love the library. Partnership marketing can help meet all your library marketing goals and it can reach entirely new audiences, while also showing a different side of the library to people who may have a narrow understanding of available resources and services.</p> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/partnership-marketing/" class="btn btn-prime btn-read-more2 btn-read-more btn-small">Read More</a></p> </div> </article> <hr> <article class="blog-item post-4924 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-partnerships category-resource-sharing category-technology tag-ill tag-partnerships tag-resource-sharing tag-shared-print tag-strategy tag-technology"> <header> <h2 class="title"> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/controlled-digital-lending-past-successes-can-guide-our-future/">Controlled digital lending: Past successes can guide our future</a> </h2> <div class="meta-info"> <img data-del="avatar" src='https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/PeterCollins_150-150x150.jpg' class='avatar pp-user-avatar avatar-90 wp-user-avatar wp-user-avatar-90 photo ' height='90' width='90'/> <ul> <li> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/author/peter-collins/" title="Posts by Peter Collins" rel="author">Peter Collins</a></li> <li> 17 May 2022</li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/partnerships/">Partnerships</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/resource-sharing/">Resource sharing</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/technology/">Technology</a></li> </ul> </div> </header> <div class="the-post-thumbnail"><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/controlled-digital-lending-past-successes-can-guide-our-future/"></a></div> <div class="post-body"> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4928" src="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner.jpg" alt="" width="1160" height="370" srcset="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner.jpg 1160w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner-300x96.jpg 300w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner-1024x327.jpg 1024w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/CDL_banner-768x245.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px" /></a></p> <p>When the COVID-19 pandemic created barriers to traditional information access, library workers reacted immediately to help make up the difference.

We are also exploring what it means “to be open”—which, I believe, is the essence of what all modern libraries are striving for.</p> <p>As a member of <a href="https://www.oclc.org/en/membership/councils.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Global Council</a>, I find great value in discussing subjects like this with colleagues from libraries of all types all over the world. Through the topic “open ecosystems” we are united by a common mindset and shared interests. While, at the same time, we realize that our institutions can be as unique and diverse as the communities we serve. How we work together on core issues while respecting local and diverse needs is both a great challenge and a wonderful opportunity.</p> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/open-ecosystems-the-heartbeat-of-modern-librarianship/" class="btn btn-prime btn-read-more2 btn-read-more btn-small">Read More</a></p> </div> </article> <hr> <article class="blog-item post-4696 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-community-engagement category-leadership category-partnerships tag-community-engagement tag-data-science tag-leadership tag-partnerships tag-realm tag-research"> <header> <h2 class="title"> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/build-on-strengths-when-responding-to-a-crisis/">Build on strengths when responding to a crisis</a> </h2> <div class="meta-info"> <img data-del="avatar" src='https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/sharon-photo-150-150x150.jpg' class='avatar pp-user-avatar avatar-90 wp-user-avatar wp-user-avatar-90 photo ' height='90' width='90'/> <ul> <li> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/author/sharon-streams/" title="Posts by Sharon Streams" rel="author">Sharon Streams</a></li> <li> 14 October 2021</li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/community-engagement/">Community engagement</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/leadership/">Leadership</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/partnerships/">Partnerships</a></li> </ul> </div> </header> <div class="the-post-thumbnail"><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/build-on-strengths-when-responding-to-a-crisis/"></a></div> <div class="post-body"> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-4700" src="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/REALM_project_banner.jpg" alt="REALM banner" width="1160" height="370" srcset="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/REALM_project_banner.jpg 1160w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/REALM_project_banner-300x96.jpg 300w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/REALM_project_banner-1024x327.jpg 1024w, https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/REALM_project_banner-768x245.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px" /></p> <p>As the <a href="https://www.oclc.org/realm/home.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">REALM project</a> (REopening Archives, Libraries, and Museums) continues to gather and adapt science-based information to inform local decision making by libraries, archives, and museums, it’s been essential to listen to the real-world experiences at these institutions.

In a <a href="https://www.oclc.org/realm/resources/one-year.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">collection of nine interviews</a>, leaders of libraries, museums, and member associations describe how they leveraged their institutions’ core strengths and drew upon trusted partners to navigate the crisis, helping to protect the health and well-being of staff and community members.

While libraries around the world serve unique and diverse communities, at the core of their work, they share very similar visions and principles. Libraries similarly, are also able to adjust strategy and tactics very specifically to their users’ needs while keeping an eye on global interests. Finding ways to link these two levels—global interests and local conditions—can be very rewarding—and sometimes complicated.</p> <p>For the past year, I have worked with OCLC Global Council and OCLC Research to explore such a link. In the fall of 2019, we began focusing on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to determine how libraries can use the goals as a framework to partner, both with each other and outside organizations, to better address global sustainability efforts.</p> <p>Then COVID-19 struck. And libraries worldwide had an entirely new set of shared challenges to address locally.</p> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/connecting-your-librarys-actions-to-global-challenges-how-do-you-stand-up/" class="btn btn-prime btn-read-more2 btn-read-more btn-small">Read More</a></p> </div> </article> <hr> <article class="blog-item post-3943 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-discovery category-open-content category-partnerships"> <header> <h2 class="title"> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/covid19-free-e-content-partnerships/">OCLC partners provide extended and free e-content during the COVID-19 crisis</a> </h2> <div class="meta-info"> <img data-del="avatar" src='https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Chip-Nilges.jpg' class='avatar pp-user-avatar avatar-90 wp-user-avatar wp-user-avatar-90 photo ' height='90' width='90'/> <ul> <li> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/author/chip-nilges/" title="Posts by Chip Nilges" rel="author">Chip Nilges</a></li> <li> 27 March 2020</li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/discovery/">Discovery</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/open-content/">Open content</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/partnerships/">Partnerships</a></li> </ul> </div> </header> <div class="the-post-thumbnail"><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/covid19-free-e-content-partnerships/"></a></div> <div class="post-body"> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3944" src="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/book_bridge.jpg" alt="book_bridge" width="1160" height="370" /></p> <p>During the past weeks, we’ve all faced a wide variety of changes in our lives and jobs.

In California, where many have been forced from their homes due to forest fires and power outages, libraries like <a href="https://twitter.com/FolsomLibrary/status/1182007950623285249" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Folsom Public Library</a> have become a refuge for people who need to charge devices, use WiFi, or just have a place to go. In March of 2011, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_T%C5%8Dhoku_earthquake_and_tsunami" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">a powerful earthquake</a> triggered enormous tsunami waves in the T?hoku region of Japan, killing thousands of people, driving hundreds of thousands from their homes, and leaving millions without electricity and water service. In the months after this horrific disaster, as hundreds of government services, NGOs, and private and international relief agencies struggled to help communities recover, residents also <a href="https://ideaexchange.uakron.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1029&context=docam" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">looked to public libraries</a> for help.</p> <p>Why is that? Libraries don’t provide food, water, electricity, or medical services. In many cases, libraries had suffered the same catastrophic losses as their neighbors; staff had perished or been injured, buildings completely destroyed or unusable, resources gutted. Why, then, did people so quickly turn to libraries after a disaster?

When you’re talking about shared cataloging standards, even a tiny change can impact thousands of institutions and millions of records.</p> <p>That’s one reason why it’s so important to have organizations like the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC). Lori Robare, Monographic Team Leader at University of Oregon, and PCC Past Chair stated, “The PCC has a strong tradition of cooperative work, standards, metadata expertise, and training. This is an exciting time for the PCC as we consider how to build upon those strengths in the transition to a linked data environment.”</p> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/oclc-and-the-pcc-changing-standards-to-support-changing-times/" class="btn btn-prime btn-read-more2 btn-read-more btn-small">Read More</a></p> </div> </article> <hr> <article class="blog-item post-2781 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-partnerships category-research tag-data"> <header> <h2 class="title"> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/rdm-a-challenge-too-big-to-tackle-alone/">RDM: A challenge too big to tackle alone</a> </h2> <div class="meta-info"> <img data-del="avatar" src='https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/b_f_lavoie.jpg' class='avatar pp-user-avatar avatar-90 wp-user-avatar wp-user-avatar-90 photo ' height='90' width='90'/> <ul> <li> <a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/author/brian-lavoie/" title="Posts by Brian Lavoie, Ph.D." rel="author">Brian Lavoie, Ph.D.</a></li> <li> 14 February 2019</li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/partnerships/">Partnerships</a></li> <li><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/topic/research/">Research</a></li> </ul> </div> </header> <div class="the-post-thumbnail"><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/rdm-a-challenge-too-big-to-tackle-alone/"></a></div> <div class="post-body"> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2785" src="https://blog.oclc.org/next/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/gears.jpg" alt="gears" width="1160" height="370" /></p> <p>The <a href="https://www.oclc.org/research/publications/library/2014/oclcresearch-evolving-scholarly-record-2014-overview.html">scholarly record continues to evolve</a>, gathering a wider array of research outputs—including research data sets. In response, universities and other institutions have started to acquire capacity to support data management needs on campus. While services and infrastructure are coalescing around emerging data management practices, guidelines, and mandates, many questions remain about the future of the research data management (RDM) service space, and the university’s role in acquiring and managing RDM capacity in support of their researchers.</p> <p>How do we approach problems like these that are clearly too big for any one institution to solve? One piece of the solution is to scale learning.</p> <p><a href="https://blog.oclc.org/next/rdm-a-challenge-too-big-to-tackle-alone/" class="btn btn-prime btn-read-more2 btn-read-more btn-small">Read
