    Resource Discovery Services at London School of Economics Library
    (INFLIBNET Center, 2009-02-25) Camfield, Graham
    The paper describes some recent projects and developments at the Library of the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). To support and assist learning and research the Library has introduced new resource discovery services, the Beta Catalogue and Cross Searcher federated search engine. There is close collaboration between the Library and LSE Centre for Learning Technology to provide online information skills training via Moodle. The LASSIE project has investigated the use of social software in libraries. LSE Library staffs are gradually introducing social software into their work. The LSE Institutional Repository, LSE Research Online, is managed by a team of Library staff. Two projects, VERSIONS and VIF, have explored the issue of uncertainty around different versions of an academic paper. The NEEO project has developed an open access repository for the research output of European economists. The digitisation of print collections is at an early stage.
