Visual Resource Professionals’ Current Concerns
• Need for metadata standards (integrity)
• Copyright infringement
• Continued funding for technical support
• Faculty’s lack of acceptance
• Constant learning
• Time demand
• Will I be replaced?
Center for Instructional TechnologyJames Madison University
Faculty Concerns• “I am far too old to keep up with the
technology.”• “If a projector bulb fails or the server is down,
that particular class session is pretty much over.”
• “I'm concerned about mastering the new technology, about obtaining enough images to teach with, about quality of reproduction.”
Center for Instructional TechnologyJames Madison University
Change is not an event. It is a process of transitioning from the old to the new, from the familiar to the unfamiliar.

People don’t resist change– they resist loss.
Scott & Jaffe, 1995

“The de-population of the slide library room concerns me. It’s nice that people are going digital, but
now they don’t gather casually in a room and have the opportunity to interact…. the way they used to.”
