Web scale Discovery services are becoming the most sought after solution for Libraries to connect its patrons with the relevant information they seek. Many studies show that these services are getting wide acceptance from users as well as Library staff and making revolution in Library Information retrieval arena. Given such broad implications, selecting a new discovery service for libraries is an important undertaking. Library professionals should carefully evaluate options to meet their goal of finding the best potential match for their library. This Paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions by depicting various facets of Web Scale Discovery, how it differs from federated searching and highlights the important parameters to be considered for taking an informed and confident decision on selecting discovery service.

Abstract
The impact of Internet and Google like search engines radically influenced the information behavior of Net Generation users. They expect same environment in library services such that all their required information make available in a single set of results through unified search across all the available resources. Libraries have been striving to respond to this challenge for years. Until recently, federated search technology of the past decade was the better attempt in this area to meet these user expectations. But federated search solution is marked by the drawbacks of its slowness as it searches each database on the fly. New Generation cloud based Library Web scale discovery technology is a promising entrant in this landscape. This Paper attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of Library Web Scale Discovery solutions by depicting various facets of Web Scale Discovery solutions such as its importance to Library field, their possible role as the starting point for research, content coverage, and finally analyses the competition at the discovery front by comparing the services of major players. The comparative analysis shows that all the major service providers are extending competitive features and services, but varies in some areas and the adoption choice depends on the concerned library’s preferences and the cost involved.

Web-scale Discovery Services are becoming an integral part of libraries' information gathering arsenal. These services are able to use a single interface to seamlessly integrate results from a wide range of online sources, emulating the experience patrons have come to expect from Internet search engines. But despite their ability to streamline searching, discovery services provide a wide set of challenges for libraries who implement them. This virtual conference will touch on both the potential of discovery services as well as some of the issues involved.

Library Automation :
Library automation is the general term for information and communications technologies (ICT) that are used to replace manual systems in the library.
Barbara Albee & Oliver Chen, Indiana University, School of Library and Information Science, Indianapolis
The purpose of this project is to examine the implementation of an open source library automation system, Evergreen, in Indiana public libraries and its impact to library users. Nine public libraries from the Evergreen Indiana consortium are invited to participate in the project. The research team recruits library users at the nine libraries with the assistance from local librarians. The users are classified into three age groups: 18-24, 25-59 and 60 or above. The research team has collected data from the first two quarters in 2010 and reports preliminary results from the two quarters. Preliminary correlation-coefficient analyses indicate participants’ use of the library system’s functions are related to age, frequency of visits to local library in the last 12-months, level of use of the previous library system and the Evergreen system. Participants; use of the Evergreen system has potential to change the way they use library services and collections.
NewGenLib, an Integrated Library Management System, is now freely available as open source under the most widely used free software license, GNU General Public License (GNU GPL) v3. NewGenLib is the result of collaboration between specialists in library automation and software specialists.

The modern library web environment consists of multiple content sources and applications that perform essential functions that often overlap and could potentially create a fractured user experience. For example, content in a library’s Drupal website may be replicated in LibGuides or WordPress blogs. Search functionality in a discovery platform may be replicated in a federated search tool or the ILS OPAC. This presentation provides tips, tackles technical and political challenges to building a single web experience for users, discusses solutions and use of APIs (application programming interfaces), provides concrete examples, and more.

18. Critical concern for public
libraries
Most libraries offer e-book lending programs
Strong demand: increasing use statistics
Print lending remains vigorous
Academic libraries will benefit at a later phase
by e-book lending models developed in the
public library sector
20. E-book Lending Models
Phase I: Link out to e-book lending service
Phase II: Load MARC records in local catalog,
then link out on individual titles
Phase III: Discovery and lending operations
performed fully within the library’s catalog or
discovery environment
21. Full e-book lending
Discovery of print and e-book titles and copies
simultaneously
E-book transactions represented within
patron’s library account
List
of charged items, due dates
Service options: renew, return, etc.
Ability to check-out and download e-books into
e-reader
22. The e-book integration
ecosystem
E-book lending services must expose APIs
Online catalog or discovery services must
consume APIs and adjust interface design and
business logic to accommodate discovery and
lending operations
Challenge: each e-book service provider’s
APIs are different
Response: Work toward consistent or standard
suite of APIs
25. Open Source
Community-based software development
No licensing costs
Services offered for: hosting, implementation,
data conversion, ongoing support
Self-service: all costs absorbed within
institution
Library examples:
Koha
Evergreen
Kuali
OLE
27. Consumer Tech Trends
Device adoption: Tablets, Smartphones, PCs
Need
to balance how to deliver library services
3D printing
Experimental
implementations in library maker
spaces
Wearable tech
Google
Glass? Interesting, but privacy concerns
30. Business Trends
Consolidation: Large international companies
gaining increasing reach into libraries across
many international regions
Local companies vulnerable: May not have the
development capacity to develop new
generations of products
Content and Technology increasingly
interwoven
