We’ve been kicking around ideas for our symbolic three millionth volume. Most libraries pick an old book with an ornate cover and build a message about the concept of printed artifacts. At UCSB we might do that too... or maybe not. One of the exciting ideas that came up during our initial brainstorming was selecting an open access title or at least something that is born digital. This really rocks the boat but I think that is a good thing. This is a chance to really make a statement about the direction library collections are heading. It also gives us a springboard to reach out to our faculty about scholarly communications. I can imagine a nice promotional package built around this theme.
