9. The rich get richer

10. Then: the user built their workflow around the library Now: the library must build its service around the user workflow

11. Then: resources were scarce and attention was abundant Now: attention is scarce and resources are abundant

12. People are entry points

14. Enter what you're reading or your whole library—it's an easy, library- quality catalog. LibraryThing also connects you with people who read the same things. Meet the world's largest book club. Find people with eerily similar tastes.

18. PAUSE

19. Webscale … A library experience which matches the experience of the web?

20. Recombinant Adaptive Navigation Short path from discovery to fulfilment Traverse from personal to global Comprehensive Machine interface: scale with use

21. Part 2: The catalog: from discovery to disclosure

22.  Local Discovery Environments  Shared Discovery Environments  Syndicated Discovery Environments  Leveraged Discovery Environments Remember: focus on catalog Require disclosure

23. Local Discovery environment  Some (not necessarily aligned) motivations  Make data work harder  Integrate access to locally managed resources  Escape from ILS limitations  NCSU  Rochester  SOLR  Worldcat local  Primo  Encore …

24. Making data work harder: simple search followed by rich navigation and participation

25. Glancability

27. Some remarks  How does MARC data play with other data  Subjects, authors,..  Historic investment in structure?  Duplicate cost?  Relationship to Metasearch?  Social and scale

28. Shared discovery environment  Increase impact  Create gravitational pull  Aggregate demand and supply  Reduce costs

31. Some comments  Integration of discovery to delivery becoming essential  A move to shared environments seems more likely with increased ability to ‘view’ different levels  Increased gravitational pull: greater use of collections  Growing evidence  Integration of materials?

32. Syndicated discovery experience  Syndicate data or service or links

37. Syndicating services  RSS  Portlets  APIs, Protocol-based  Projects  Sakailibrary  … Not as rapid as one might expect?

40. Some remarks  Syndication of data now common among data providers  Routing issue for non-unique materials  Resolution  Worldcat  Libraries exposing licensed content holdings interesting  Google Scholar

41.  Service disclosure less common  APIs  Web services  Portlets  HTML fragments – ‘search boxes’  Toolbars  Widgets, extensions, …

42. Social?

43. The Leveraged discovery experience  In some ways the most interesting  Use another discovery service to connect back to your resources  Compare to the situation with article databases and resolvers

47. Some remarks  Some of these are toy-like now, but indicate a direction  Increased capacity to ‘sense’ structure (microformats) will improve ability.

48. So …  How to get to webscale  User environment  Management environment  A new balance between  Institutional development  Shared activities  How to most release value in research and learning lives of users
