Alumni access, More
A couple of liblicense-l readers have asked me whether, given my written comments (for a Yale meeting last fall) about alumni use of remotely accessed electronic resources and my reservations about such use, I also felt the same concerns would apply to alumni access of resources that run locally at Yale. In general, my answer is yes. The matter, from my viewpoint, is that securing license language that permits alumni use is one thing but only the first part of the task; making technological, instructional, and economic provision to achieve effective and appropriate alumni use is another. Those are the issues we need next to address here and to resolve. Doing this will take time for reasons outlined in my note. I do hope we can do so in a way that does provide some such services. By the way, that was not a policy document of any stripe; merely my own view of the challenge of making licensed e-resources available to alumni.
