Technology

Data is created rapidly and constantly.

Data is only useful in context.

As information becomes more complex, so do contextual opportunities.

Welcome to the Internet.

Also... welcome to the Internet.

Change is the new constant.

Information Pareidolia

The Profane

The mundane

The sacred

The astonishing

Users are their own operators.

We see the road but not the destination.

Like-minded people stick together.

Is our profession sustainable?

21st Century Librarianship = Information Architecture

Open Source SOA SaaS

Example? Open Source Insurge, Locum SOA SaaS

Transparency

Boundaries are artiﬁcial.

Security needs to change.

UX must be predictable, familiar.

Get everywhere from anywhere.

Users need to know where to go.

Retrieval should be as easy as storage.

Speed is essential.

Seams are the weakest point.

Simple is usually better. Except when it’s not.

There is always a formula. It always depends.

Information + Truth = Knowledge

Knowledge is a personal pursuit. Harpers Ferry

Bastogne
