Macro  Solu.ons:  “Common  to  these  efforts  will  be  developing  strong  coali.ons  that  bring  together  diverse  ins.tu.ons  within  a  na.onal  framework;  federa.ng  shared  resources  and  interests,  including  collec.ons,  technology,  and  exper.se;  and  crea.ng  a  genuine,  voli.onal  dependency  on  other  par.cipa.ng  ins.tu.ons  for  the  provision  of  what  was  once  a  locally  owned  and  managed  asset.  We  are  calling  these  collabora.ve  projects  macro  solu*ons.”

Recommenda.ons:  •   Advocate  in  favor  of  licensed  access  to  mass-­‐digi.zed  resource  

•  Support  HathiTrust’s  efforts  to  expand  public  access  to  the  mass-­‐digi.zed    

•  Communicate  to  stakeholders:  Externalizing  tradi.onal  func.ons  improves  ability  to  fulfill  mission
