Library Publishing and Scholarly Bibliographies: A Case Study

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

The Pennsylvania State University Libraries Open Publishing Program publishes scholarly annotated bibliographies in partnership with units/departments within Penn State and editors across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Since early 2020, we have almost doubled our production of bibliographies with both published and in progress projects, bringing our catalog up to twelve publications. We use the Drupal Biblio module to publish these annotated and searchable bibliographies, some of which are used by libraries and organizations around the world. We have learned a lot about scholarly bibliography publishing over the past five years and have used that knowledge to create a bibliography publishing workflow that ensures a timely and thorough process from the initial consultation to the final publication launch. In this session, we wish to highlight some of our bibliographies and discuss the publishing process, including the proposal review by our publishing board, consultations process with the editors, the content review and proofreading process, pain points in content organization and keyword searching, the creation and addition of content to our Drupal bibliography websites, and final publication. The publications we will highlight range in topic from indigenous knowledge for agriculture and rural development; utopian literature in the English language; and memoirs and primary sources documenting Polish Jews fleeing the Soviet Union during World War II. Attendees will come away from this session with an understanding of the scholarly bibliography publishing process at Penn State and proposed metrics for success.
