Talk: Ithaka S+R 2009 Faculty Survey Report

Description: Ithaka S+R recently released the results of its fourth faculty survey, which examines changes in faculty attitudes towards the academic library, information resources, and the scholarly communications system as a whole. In the published report based on this survey, Ithaka S+R analyzes responses from over 3,000 faculty members based at US four-year colleges or universities. This presentation will report findings on (1) faculty attitudes about the idea of a local shift away from print journal collections and towards electronic-only access and (2) faculty attitudes towards scholarly communications trends in open access and digital repositories.
