1. Access and Permissions
Recommendation: Classify resources as Internal (faculty/staff-only) or External (public-facing).
Consideration: Ensure FERPA, ADA, and SB-17 compliance.
Policy Suggestion: Develop tiered access rules tied to secure login (SSO), updated annually in coordination with IT/HR.
2. Metadata and Searchability
Recommendation: Use a standard metadata framework (e.g., Dublin Core).
Consideration: Use user-friendly keywords, ADA tags, and note training type (e.g., async/sync).
Policy Suggestion: Require a consistent metadata template vetted by Library Services or Academic Technologies.
3. Catalog Structure & User Experience
Recommendation: Organize resources by topic, role, delivery method, etc. with filters via a centralized platform (e.g., LibGuides, Workday Learning).
Consideration: Include version history and update logs.
Policy Suggestion: Conduct quarterly reviews to archive outdated content using version control protocols.
4. Internal vs. External Hosting
Recommendation: Use internal platforms for staff training; public platforms for outreach and OERs.
Consideration: Create a crosswalk document that identifies platform use and ownership.
Policy Suggestion: Include IT and Communications in quarterly audits for consistency and branding.
5. Data Tracking and Continuous Improvement
Recommendation: Use analytics (e.g., usage stats, completion, feedback) to guide content development.
Consideration: Embed feedback tools (e.g., short surveys, like/dislike) with anonymized collection.
Policy Suggestion: Require biannual reporting on resource engagement to inform planning and investment.
