NCSU Libraries E-matrix CHARGE The ad hoc E-Matrix Committee will implement a prototype electronic resources management system to support acquisition and licensing, collection management, and resource discovery for the Libraries' electronic resources
NCSU Libraries E-matrix CHARGE (cont) • define the need • survey best practices and related local and national initiatives • define functional specifications for the system • build a data model which maximizes opportunities for present and future interoperability with existing systems (e.g., ILS, MyLibrary, Serials Solutions, PeopleSoft) and utilization of existing or emerging standards (e.g., OpenURL, EDI, XML) • implement a prototype.

E-matrix Challenges • Public interface is secondary concern • Leveraging existing ILS data • Adherence to emerging standards • Avoid solutions looking for problems
What Do We REALLY Want • Evaluation tool- DBs, ejournals, serials • Licensing management tool • Tool that will allow library to leverage the authoritative ILS database with the other descriptive and administrative metadata for comprehensive display & management
Getting started • Stakeholders: Cataloging, Acquisitions, Serials, and Collection Management • Identify data that are already being kept • Identify data that are needed for evaluation, longevity, and various services
What Did We Do? • Formed more groups • Database evaluation • Statistics • Licensing • Metadata/Data Elements • ILS Data • Interface
Emerging Standards • XML Schema for E-resource Management • Workflow, specifications, data elements, schema • CONSER, LC, and the gang • NISO/EDItEUR • Serial subscription data exchange • Liblicense • Basic terms and contracts for licensing electronic resources • COUNTER and E-Metrics • Statistical counts • OpenURL, HANDLE, PURL, Global registry • Persistent identifiers • Shibboleth: Internet2/Mace authentication project
What Did We Do Next? • ILS MIGRATION • the ultimate excuse • DLF Electronic Resource Management Initiative • they didn’t take the last 6 months off… • “Borrowed” DLF’s data element scheme/definitions • Added additional elements for NCSU’s needs • Mapped to our existing data sources • Expanded scope to include print subscriptions - Collection Enrichment Project
Data Elements • Descriptive –Title, identifiers, provider, holdings (27) • Licensing – Parties, terms of use, rights, business terms (74) • Access – URI, authorization, proxy (10) • Administrative – Accounts, configuration, usage statistics, tech support, contact info (51) • Evaluative – Resource assessment, impact, faculty contact enrichment (20)
Current Development • Data Modeling • Data Migration • Workflow Design/Interface • Data Hooks
Future Development • Enhance statistical elements/tools as data becomes normalized • Use data to populate public interface – OPAC/Website • Integrate the ILS
SUMMARY • E-MATRIX is a management tool • It is being designed to hook into other resources/datasets as needed • E-MATRIX is a management tool Thank you More information available @: http://staff.lib.ncsu.edu/committees/ematrix
