RefShare my references on electronic resource management systems
One of the dreadful things when beginning a literature review is dumping your citations into your reference manager. If your topic happens to be electronic resource management systems, however, your life just got a lot easier. I’ve compiled the resources I used in a chapter prepared for the Handbook of Research on Library Electronic Resource Management, and I am pleased to share them with you. Choose the link below to share in my RefWorks reference database, via RefShare. You don’t have to be a subscriber to access these references.

retaining my rights as an author: amendment to publication agreement
I took some of the language and organization from MIT’s author amendment and UIUC’s draft amendment, stripped out the institution-specific jargon, and created my own Author’s Amendment to Publication Agreement
