TEACHING DISCOVERY THE UNIVERSAL LIBRARY & THE ECONOMICS OF DISCOVERY Cody Hennesy | ALA SF 2015 | RSS Discovery Services Discussion Forum

INFORMATION HAS VALUE “Information possesses several dimensions of value, including as a commodity… Legal and socioeconomic interests influence information production and dissemination.“ ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education.

INFORMATION LANDSCAPE HELPING STUDENTS NAVIGATE THE Complex, for legal and economic reasons… but to many it doesn’t appear complex

“Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”

THE WORLD’S INFORMATION is not available online is not universally accessible and it never will be

BUT DISCOVERY: Tries to provide a “Google-like” experience Great for the students we don’t get to teach Reinforces the notion that a researcher has access to a universal library Goal: unpack the Google-like experience of discovery

UNDERSTAND THE GUTS Not just how it works Not just what is and isn’t in there But why is it in there And why are a lot of things not in there
