View the presentation: "Mainstreaming Digital Resources"

At ALA Annual 2009, Amy Rudersdorf, the Director of the Digital Information Management Program at the State Library of North Carolina, spoke about integrating a whole host of tools and systems into a digital curation workflow.

Many of the tools are fully integrated into the State Library staff's daily workflow and include the CONTENTdm Digital Collection Management Software, the OCLC Digital Archive, OCLC's Connexion cataloging service and the WorldCat Digital Collection Gateway, among others.

The video recording, which is now available for online viewing, also includes a 15-minute introduction to OCLC's Digital Collection Services by Geri Bunker Ingram, OCLC Digital Collection Services Manager.
