1 West Virginia Community & Technical College Database Consortium
This session is more of a discussion rather than a presentation. At the end of the brief presentation, attendees are encouraged to provide their experiences and insights to add content to the project. West Virginia Community & Technical College Database Consortium Jamie Bayne, MLIS Heather Campbell, MLIS Heather Lauer, MLS Kat Phillips, MLIS

2 Initial Objectives Purchase databases to support programs available at multiple institutions Business, General Education, Health, & Technology Guarantee a baseline of resources available to every student in the West Virginia Community College system Have common point of contact for database maintenance Maximize budgeting and bargaining power through collective agreements Goals met! These four categories have the most overlap. However, this is a preliminary thought process. As the consortium grows, there will be more expansive offerings based off communal needs.

3 States with Collaborative Databases
Ohio – OhioLINK (1990) - 16 public universities, 24 community/technical colleges, 50 private colleges, and the State Library of Ohio Florida – Florida Virtual Campus / FLVC (July 2012) - 12 public universities, 28 public colleges, K-12 school districts – Government-mandated Georgia – Galileo (1995) – 29 public universities, 40 private colleges, the technical college system, K-12 school districts through the Georgia Department of Education, the Georgia Independent School Association, and the Georgia Public Libraries Kentucky & Pennsylvania both have neophyte programs which are proving to be successful

4 Institutions Blue Ridge Community & Technical College
BridgeValley Community & Technical College Eastern West Virginia Community & Technical College Mountwest Community & Technical College New River Community & Technical College Pierpont Community & Technical College * Southern West Virginia Community & Technical College West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission West Virginia Library Commission West Virginia Northern Community & Technical College West Virginia University at Parkersburg Program is initially being sandboxed with the CTC systems. However, there has been considerable interest in expanding the program to all institutions once all procedures, policies, and databases have been in place for a minimum of a year. This would provide a working pilot program to build into a state-wide network. * Unable to join consortium during initial year due to agreements in place with Fairmont

If you have questions, see us after the presentation to discuss privately.

7 Pre-Consortium Feedback
