7. Sustainability of ANTS
"[T]he sustainability of OERs - in a fashion that renders them at once both affordable and usable - requires that we think of OERs as ... part of a larger picture, one that includes volunteers and incentives, community and partnerships, co-production and sharing, distributed management and control.“

Questions to consider… “What new organizational structures are necessary to
support emerging client demands given new fiscal constraints? How can libraries creatively redesign functions and services to realize cost savings…? How will the work of librarians change?”
How will libraries create Web-based products and services that can compete with commercial products sold directly to students and faculty? Should libraries compete or collaborate in this arena?
![Page 28: Paul Betty and Cassandra Kvenild Wyoming Library Association Annual Conference](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062410/5681650d550346895dd78465/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Questions to consider…“How can Libraries develop a meaningful electronic
presence as students shift away from static web sites….How can libraries more effectively create awareness about their content so users can discover it?”
“How can the library demonstrate impact and value by developing or expanding programs to support student form low-income and disadvantaged backgrounds?
