| “Use and Users of Digital Resources: A Focus on Undergraduate Education in the Humanities and Social Sciences” This report provides much aggregated data on the sources that faculty are using; makes a strong case that search aggregators (such as Google) and personal aggregations of digital materials are the strongest organizing principals that faculty bring to their work at present. The definition of “digital resource” is quite broad here, and so is both a strength and a weakness of the report. |
| “The Visual Resources Environment at Liberal Arts Colleges,” Roger Schonfeld Focuses more closely on digital resource provision for Art History, but covers digital image use elsewhere. Tracks the importance of cross-departmental efforts or efforts to take a university-wide approach to digital media provision. |

| David Green’s study of digital image use at liberal arts colleges [forthcoming on Academic Commons ] This report is not public yet, but when it is release it will provide a good overview of where liberal arts colleges are in terms of use of digital resources. Makes some similar points to the California report about personal repositories and search engines. |
| “Software and Collaboration in Higher Education: A Study of Open Source Software” Open source is exerting stronger and stronger influence in many areas of campus management, including digital assets management questions. This report, while targeted at evaluating a specific proposal to form an OS management body, also provides a valuable overview of the area. |
| Meeting program: “Augmenting interoperability across scholarly repositories” (final report at: http://msc.mellon.org/Meetings/Interop/FinalReport) Exploration of repository interoperability technology and concerns; quite theoretical and technical overall. There is probably little to act on here, but interesting in relation to thinking about where higher education is in much richer interoperability and the integration or IRs into scholarly publishing. |
