SPEC Kit 329 explores the tools, workflow, and policies special collections and archives staff use to process, manage, and provide access to born-digital materials they collect. It also looks at which staff process and manage born-digital materials and how they acquire the skills they need for these activities, and how libraries have responded to the challenges that managing born-digital materials present. It includes documentation from respondents that describe digital specialists’ job responsibilities, collection policies, gift/purchase agreements, format policies, and workflows.

On September 3, 2004, NIH released a proposed plan to make research articles available to the public free of charge on PubMed Central (PMC) within six months after publication in a scientific journal. In addition to the library community, SPARC and other public interest groups, the Council of the National Academy of Sciences, 25 Nobel laureates, scores of patient advocacy groups, many higher education institutions and affiliated libraries have joined the growing chorus advocating enhanced access to biomedical information. This is an update of that discussion in 2004.
