| Abstract: |
Controlled Digital Lending (CDL) became a popular term in the United States of America (USA) libraries as a result of a white paper authored by Kyle K. Courtney (Harvard University) and David Hansen (Duke University). (Citation?) The white paper gave the legal groundwork to explore the copyright aspect of CDL: Fair Use, First Sale Doctrine and Supreme Court rulings. The white paper also provided guidelines for Library professionals implementing this new technology to fulfill their users' needs. Inspired by the recent CDL guidelines developed by Courtney and Hansen (2018) two librarians from the University of Florida (UF), and Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) started a conversation about how to develop strategies to make CDL work possible at each institution. The authors share their stories of piloting and initiating a CDL program to ensure students have reliable, affordable access to course materials they need to be successful. Additionally, the authors discuss the emerging trends of CDL in the USA, and the development of the CDL platforms, policies and implementation plans. Most importantly, the implementation of these programs presents challenges, lessons learned, and plans to sustain the program in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
