so that we can send you a Zoom link to participate.

We are pleased to showcase our two research forum presentations:

Abigail Goben, University of Illinois at Chicago - Current Practices in
Data Management Education: Results of Surveying Doctoral Nursing Programs

Despite growing data capture and reuse for quality improvement,
informatics, and research, little is known about nursing data management
(DM) education. Health sciences librarians and nurse faculty collaborated
to determine how DM is taught in nursing doctoral programs. The purpose of
this study was to identify current practices of DM education and where gaps
.


Greg Nelson, Brigham Young University - Think Twice Before You Get Rid of
Your Backfiles! Scan Quality of Elsevier’s Electronic Backfile PDF
Collection

Journal publisher Elsevier sells perpetual access to their research
articles published prior to 1995 through an institution’s ScienceDirect
subscription. Brigham Young University recently purchased a large number of
the backfile collections and wanted to evaluate the collection’s scan
quality in hopes to deaccession our matching print collection and free
needed shelf space. This is the first evaluation assessing the scan quality
of Elsevier’s large corpus of electronic backfiles and will provide
evaluation criteria for those contemplating a purchase or for those who may
also want to determine whether to keep or discard in-house print versions
of their Elsevier journal collection.

Thanks!
Rachel
