This document summarizes the role of public libraries in providing digital resources and promoting digital inclusion. It discusses how the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) provides federal support for US libraries and museums through research, convening, and grants. IMLS works to expand digital access, literacy, and inclusion through various programs and partnerships aimed at education, workforce development, and civic engagement. Upcoming efforts include rolling out a framework for digitally inclusive communities and establishing a Digital Public Library of America.
Slides for a keynote for the Annual Symposium of the Melbourne Networked Society Institute, University of Melbourne, 11 November 2016, discussing the power shifts tied to the rise of a 5th Estate.
I've just bumped into this presentation. We made it to Rochdale Council's Telematics Working Party a long, long time ago.
Basically, it was a pitch for the support and resources to get all the libraries networked and active online. It took us another five years to finish the job (by which networked CD-ROMs were a distant memory!).
Although bits of this sound technically-archaic the fundamental principles still hold water.
The evolution of digital libraries as socio-technical systemsKaren S Calhoun
Introduces and orients participants to digital libraries as socio-technical systems--that is, systems based on the interplay of technology, information, and people. The objective is to expose thematic connections between digital library infrastructure, cultural heritage and scholarly collections, social forces, and online community building. Key challenges of the current environment include interoperability, community engagement, intellectual property rights, and sustainability. Invited presentation for the Nimitiz Library staff, US Naval Academy.

The IMLS National Digital Platform & Your Library: Tools You Can UseTrevor Owens
As libraries increasingly use digital infrastructure to provide access to content and resources, there are more and more opportunities for collaboration around the tools and services that they use to meet their users’ needs. To this end, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) is making substantial investments in developing collaborative and sustainable technical and social digital infrastructure for libraries through the National Digital Platform initiative. In this talk, you will learn about a series of digital tools, services, training opportunities and resources IMLS is funding through the National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program and the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program. The presentation will focus on ongoing projects and efforts that you and your library can get involved in and make direct use of. It will also provide insight into how you could develop competitive proposals for projects that could be funded through this national effort.
Digital Infrastructures that Embody Library Principles: The IMLS national dig...Trevor Owens
Digital library infrastructures must not simply work. They must also manifest the core principles of libraries and archives. Since 2014, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) has engaged with stakeholders from diverse library communities to consider collaborative approaches to building digital library tools and services. The “national digital platform” for libraries, archives, and museums is the framework that resulted from these dialogs. One key feature of the national digital platform (NDP) is the anchoring of core library principles within the development of digital tools and services. This essay explores how NDP-funded projects enact library principles as part of the national framework.
Next Steps for IMLS's National Digital PlatformTrevor Owens
This keynote, at the Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference, provides and update on the National Digital Platform and 20 projects supported to enhance it. The national digital platform is a way of thinking about and approaching the digital capability and capacity of libraries across the US. In this sense, it is the combination of software applications, social and technical infrastructure, and staff expertise that provide library content and services to all users in the US. As libraries increasingly use digital infrastructure to provide access to digital content and resources, there are more and more opportunities for collaboration around the tools and services that they use to meet their users’ needs. It is possible for each library in the country to leverage and benefit from the work of other libraries in shared digital services, systems, and infrastructure.
We need to bridge gaps between disparate pieces of the existing digital infrastructure, for increased efficiencies, cost savings, access, and services. To this end, IMLS is focusing on the national digital platform as an area of priority in the National Leadership Grants to Libraries program and the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian program. We are eager to explore how this way of thinking and approaching infrastructure development can help states make the best use of the funds they receive through the Grants to States program. We’re also eager to work with other foundations and funders to maximize the impact of our federal investment

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
