Miller Library Presented Digital Collection of ETDs at CALD Annual Spring Meeting 2008

On April 11, 2008, College Librarian Dr. Ruth Shoge presented Washington College Digital Repository DSpace at CALD (Congress of Academic Library Directors of Maryland) Annual Spring Meeting 2008.

The Congress of Academic Library Directors (CALD) of Maryland is an organization open to library directors in post-secondary institutions in Maryland. Dr. Shoge made a presentation on “ DSpace, a place for senior thesis.” This year, CALD Annual Spring Meeting focuses on digitization and Maryland library digital projects. Presenters from University of Maryland, Towson University and Johns Hopkins University also shared their digital projects.

Dr. Shoge presented the rationale that we chose DSpace as our DdigiTool, and how the librarians made the collection of ETDs available to college community. This is first time Miller Library officially publicizes our digital collection at academic library community.
