This document discusses developing digital skills training and resources at the Glucksman Library. It outlines how the Technical Services Department has expanded its role to take on new digital services like digitization, metadata creation, and digital preservation. Training programs through organizations like the National Forum for Teaching and Learning and All Aboard help library staff learn skills for working with digital files, systems like Islandora and DSpace, and technologies like XML and HTML/PHP. The library aims to provide these new digital services and encourage students and staff to improve their own digital skills through initiatives like the T1 Step collaboration.
