Ithakas 2006 Studies of Key Stakeholders in the Digital Transformation in Higher Education.pdf

Housewright, Ross and Schonfeld, Roger on August 18, 2008.

This document focuses on identifying differences between respondents
based on institutional size and disciplinary divisions.

In the modern era, academia has been faced with unprecedented and ubiquitous change, largely driven by\ntechnological developments like the personal computer and the internet. Changing technologies have been\naccompanied by changes in research habits, scholarly communications patterns, campus roles, and more.\nThese changes offer exciting new opportunities, but also pose significant challenges for those who serve\nthe higher education community. In order to be effective, librarians, information technologists, academic\nadministrators, and others concerned with facilitating research, teaching, and scholarly communication in\na changing world must keep up with the complex and evolving needs and attitudes of scholars. For\nlibraries in particular, a deep understanding of the information needs of a scholarly community and how\nexisting services mesh with these needs is essential in order to effectively serve and remain relevant on\nthe modern campus. To succeed in the internet age, libraries must be aware of which traditional roles are\nno longer needed and which potential roles would be valued, and strategically shift their service offerings\nto maximize their value to local users. We hope that this document, describing the findings of two largescale\nsurveys conducted in 2006, will help librarians and others interested in scholarship in the digital\nworld think about these changing needs and prompt consideration of how to best serve faculty in a rapidly\nchanging world.
