July 15 (12-1 pm) Mountain
As the world of academic scholarship moves from the page to
online, more and more research now happens at the chapter-level. The parsing of
content, the need for it to be easily searchable, with accurate and complete
results, is paramount to meeting the demands placed by researchers and
students. This webinar explores what it means to do research at the
chapter-level, the benefits provided to researchers and students, and the
challenges faced by libraries in delivering the level and quality of discoverability
demanded by patrons. It will also offer a sneak peak at Routledge’s forthcoming
online handbooks platform, Routledge Handbooks Online, which will provide
chapter-level metadata and abstracting to over 300 handbooks across 20 subjects
in the social sciences and humanities.
