- Abstract
While there is extensive literature on creating digital libraries, there is a dearth of literature on encouraging the use of digital libraries. This presentation will discuss a multiyear project to encourage professors to use digital objects as primary source materials in their curriculum. Participants will gain insight into using digital objects as part of learning outcomes and librarian colleagues can determine if introducing digital objects to their users is a valid way to provide service.
