WAS my pleasure to present the 3rd annual CARL Research Award certificate
and $1,000 to the project, "The Definition of a Digital Library for California
Community Colleges," on September 12th at the 6th Annual CARL Conference.
Dr. Anita Coleman, Assistant Professor and Systems Librarian at Santa Ana
College, designed and submitted this project.
Dr.
Coleman's project will develop a model digital library and accompanying
courses for use in community college settings. The project's results will
include a statement of collection development principles for digital libraries,
a proposed model collection, and reports of course evaluations.
The
CARL Web site will post these results, and Dr. Coleman will provide updates
to the CARL membership through the CARL Newsletter.
I'd
like to thank the members of the year's CARL Research Award Committee for
their thoughtful work. They are:
Marianne
Affifi
University of Southern California
Judy Lee
UC, Riverside
Linda Shoemake
American River College
Jean Stackpole
Sonoma State University (formerly)
This
year's successful proposal was one of three reviewed by the Research Award
Committee. Congratulations to Dr. Coleman, and thanks to all who submitted
proposals.
Linda Salem
University of Redlands
Chair, 1998 CARL Research Committee
