What is NASIG?
NASIG is an independent organization working to advance and
transform the management of information resources. Our
ultimate goal is to facilitate and improve the distribution,
acquisition, and long-term accessibility of information
resources in all formats and business models.
There are three key components to NASIG's mission:
> NASIG supports a dynamic community of professionals
including, but not limited to, librarians, publishers, and
vendors engaging in understanding one another’s
perspectives and improving functionality throughout the
information resources lifecycle with an emphasis on
scholarly communications, serials, and electronic resources.
> NASIG provides a rich variety of conference and continuing
education programming to encourage knowledge sharing among
its members and to support their professional and career
development.
>NASIG promotes the development and implementation of best
practices and standards for the distribution, acquisition
and long-term accessibility of information resources in all
formats and business models throughout their lifecycle. In
addition to developing best practices, NASIG supports the
development of standards by NISO, an affiliated
organization.
