 *Acquisitions and Collection Development Section Open Session: Call
 for papers *

*Open Access Converging on Collection Development *

**Collection development is traditionally focused on purchasing and licensing print and electronic publications and content for users. The number and diversity of Open Access (OA) materials -- materials freely and universally available via the Internet -- is constantly increasing. OA resources are becoming extremely important way for users to get information they need. When discussing library collections it is important not to ignore open access materials but to include them more and more in the big picture of collection development and management. From the point of view of the library OA is an opportunity but brings many challenges. Open access also challenges and changes the traditional concept of collection.

How to promote access to free digital resources? How to integrate OA journals and monographs, open data, open educational resources and open government resources into collection development policies and action and workflows of the library?

This session intends to examine Open Access in the context of library collection development and management. Suggested subthemes, with a focus on innovation and best practices for potential speakers to consider:

 * ·Integrating Open Access issues to collection development policies

 * ·Advancing, promoting and facilitating access to OA resources in the
   context of collection development and acquisitions: supporting
   options of OA publishing (e.g. Green, Gold OA), OA business models

 * ·Finding, selecting and evaluating OA resources;perpetual access

 * ·Workflow processes and practices

 * ·Library and library consortia cooperation

The section invites speakers from all library environments (academic, public, government, school, special) who can address any of these themes in a 15 minute presentation at the IFLA World Library and Information Congress in Lyon, France (16-22 August 2014). The goal is to create a diverse program of 4-6 speakers representing libraries from different parts of the world who have different experiences to share.

Proposed papers must be original and not have been published elsewhere.

It is hoped that all selected presenters will be able to prepare a formal paper, as well as Power Point slides. Selected presenters are encouraged to submit a paper in advance which supports their planned presentation and which will be made available through the IFLA's institutional repository, the IFLA Library <http://library.ifla.org/>. At the minimum, speakers must prepare presentation slides and in advance a substantial abstract, including references if relevant, such as URLs and bibliographies. The abstract is made available through the IFLA Library.

Presentations can be made in any of the official IFLA languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, but an accompanying translation of all papers into English must be provided.
