"WorldShare heeft er zeker aan bijgedragen dat onze werkprocessen nu efficiënt verlopen. We besparen tijd bij het toevoegen van records voor nieuwe titels en bij het verwijderen van de oude."

Alexandra S. Gressitt
Bibliotheekdirecteur, Thomas Balch Library

De Thomas Balch Library is sinds 1994 een prominent lid van de gemeenschap van Leesburg, Virginia, en biedt onderzoekers toegang tot haar speciale historische collecties. De bibliotheek is een aangewezen onderzoekslocatie op het gebied van de Underground Railroad en de enige onderzoeksbibliotheek in de staat die eigendom is van de stad. Naarmate de collecties van de bibliotheek groeiden, wilden medewerkers ervoor zorgen dat mensen hun unieke materialen konden vinden en kozen ze daarom voor WorldShare® Management Services (WMS).

"Eén van mijn doelen in de afgelopen twintig jaar was om al onze holdings in één catalogus te beschrijven en over te stappen van Dewey naar het classificatiesysteem van de Library of Congress. De manuscripten, artefacten, kunstwerken en andere media in onze collecties moesten vindbaar zijn", zegt bibliotheekdirecteur Alexandra S. Gressitt. "Nu alles een eigen catalogusrecord heeft, kunnen onderzoekers hun tijd hier beter gebruiken.”

"Ik heb medewerkers en onderzoekers nog nooit zo blij gezien met een verandering.”

Speciale collecties samenbrengen zonder iets te verliezen

De projectorganisatie voor de verandering vroeg om een uitgebreide planning en herevaluatie van de processen om al het materiaal beschikbaar te maken, ongeacht de media in de holdings van de bibliotheek. "Veel van onze beschrijvende informatie was niet beschikbaar voor onderzoekers. Ons doel was om ervoor te zorgen dat deze informatie voor iedereen toegankelijk werd", legt Gressitt uit.

Met behulp van WMS kon het bibliotheekteam de lokale gemeenschap georganiseerde toegang bieden tot de collecties van de bibliotheek. Het heeft de medewerkers daarnaast geholpen om contact te leggen met andere organisaties over de hele wereld. WorldCat® Discovery, dat onderdeel uitmaakt van WMS, stelt gebruikers in staat om de unieke holdings van de bibliotheek eenvoudiger te verkennen. Zo ontdekte Gressitt dat onderzoekers van andere instellingen, zoals de University of Virginia en George Mason University, gebruik wilden maken van nieuw beschreven collecties. De verzoeken en vragen van onderzoekers zijn nu zelfs beter geïnformeerd dan voorheen. "Het feit dat het hier om lokale geschiedenis gaat, wil nog niet zeggen dat er geen internationaal publiek voor is”, zegt Gressitt.

Betrek de gemeenschap om kennis te delen

Sinds de implementatie van WMS zien bibliotheekmedewerkers dat de gemeenschap meer waardering heeft gekregen voor de middelen van de bibliotheek. Lokale scholen, seniorencentra en andere maatschappelijke organisaties zijn enthousiast over de veranderingen binnen de catalogus.
