Are you starting to check out devices like e-readers, tablets, and laptops? Making devices available for public use may seem challenging and overwhelming. However, the right combination of technology, organization, and policies can help your library create a popular checkout program that your patrons will love.
View these webinar slides to learn what one library is doing to expand checkout to cover a wide range of devices. Stephen Tafoya (Garfield County Library District, CO) will share his experience with device checkout, including Kindles, iPads, and Google Chromebooks. He will share best practices, tips, and advice to help you get started (or to improve your existing device checkout program).

The Impact of Linked Data in Digital Curation and Application to the Catalogu...Hong (Jenny) Jing
(Full version of the presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS9Svbmp-YY)
Information organization and systems in libraries are in a state of significant flux. In systems there is a shift to XML and RDF-based schemas and ontologies while resource description content standards have changed from AACR2 to RDA. A move from MARC to BIBFRAME and other linked data applications is on the horizon. Linked data and the semantic web have become buzzwords, but what is linked data and why it is important for librarians? How can we use it in digital curation? What can libraries do now to “prepare” for this change in their current practice?
In light of these questions, the panel presentation will discuss two projects. First, there will be coverage of a sample project using the Fedora-based open source framework, Islandora to demonstrate the concepts of connecting related data across the Web with URIs, HTTP and RDF. The second half of the presentation will describe how a consortia has taken a holistic approach to writing an RDA workflow to help front-line cataloguers develop a wider perspective when it comes to resource description (creating more structured, future compatible metadata). Up for discussion: the current state and future possibilities of library metadata with a focus on the implications of linked data.

Agile Data: Building Hadoop Analytics ApplicationsDataWorks Summit
Mining data requires a deep investment in people and time. How can you be sure you’re building the right models? What tools help you connect with the customer’s needs? With this hands-on presentation, you’ll learn a flexible toolset and methodology for building effective analytics applications. Agile Data (the book) shows you how to create an environment for exploring data, using lightweight tools such as Python, Apache Pig, and the D3.js (Data-Driven Documents) JavaScript library. You’ll learn an iterative approach that allows you to quickly change the kind of analysis you’re doing, as you discover what the data is telling you. All the example code in this book is available as working web applications. We will cover how to: * Build an application to mine your own email inbox * Use different data structures and algorithms to extract multiple features from a single dataset, and learn how different perspectives can yield insight * Rapidly boot your applications as simple front-ends to a document store * Add features driven by descriptive and inferential statistics, machine learning, and data visualization * Gather usage data and talk to real users to help guide your data-driven exploration

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Delivery of Library Resources

Library Delivery Demand Has Been
Increasing Steadily
! Sarah Long, North Suburban Library System:
“500% increase in last 10 years”
! More typical: 15-20% increase per year since
introducing patron-initiated request service
Factors Influencing Library Delivery:
The Upward Spiral
• Library Software ! Patron initiated requests
! Better discovery
interfaces
! More union catalogs
• Library Software
• Customer
Expectations
! Fast turnaround
! Bestsellers
! Blockbusters
! Classics
! Niche
! Educational
! ...and personalized
service too
Factors Influencing Library Delivery:
The Upward Spiral
2. • Library Software
• Customer Expectations
• Service Goals of
Libraries
! Compete with Google
! Compete with Amazon
! Compete with Netflix
! ....and be the local
community hub, too
Factors Influencing Library Delivery:
The Upward Spiral
Factors Influencing Library Delivery Volume:
The Dampening Effect
! Online availability of
more stuff
! Better portable devices
! Easing of DRM
restrictions
! Downloadable movies
! eBooks
! Downloadable
audiobooks
! iPads

Characteristics of Library Courier Systems
! Company is local (or a local franchise of a larger
regional courier)
! Drivers are contractors who own their own trucks
! Sorting is manual (and may be bin-level only)
! No tracking of material possible
! Sort destination relies on labels applied by staff
Local Courier
Library Staff Workload Increases as
Delivery Volume Increases
! Outgoing material must be:
! labeled
! routing slip filled out
! rubber-banded
! DVDs put in jiffy packs
! pre-sorted to location
! Incoming material must be:
! removed from bin
! unpackaged
! checked-in item by item
3. Libraries Haven't Changed How
They Do Delivery
They just do more of the same....
! more routing slips
! more trucks
! more stacks of bins
! more people manually sorting
What is/will Change the Delivery
Landscape
! More collaboration; more sharing
! Adoption of automated materials handling
technology
! RFID
! Changes in how library space and library staff are
used
More Collaboration & Sharing
" Open source software is creating opportunities for
libraries to work together and control their
workflow
" Open Source ILSs:
! Evergreen: Georgia PINES, Evergreen Indiana,
Michigan Evergreen
! Koha: Kansas (NEKLS), Wisconsin (SCLS),
Massachusetts (Masscat), Vermont (VOKAL)
" Coming: FulfILLment
! ILS-agnostic resource-sharing software
! Reduced staff workload without shared ILS
Automated Materials Handling
" Self check-in with sorting
! eliminates handling of ready-to-shelve returns
! separates items to send to other libraries
" Central sorters
! sort at 1500 per person hour instead of 400
! huge reduction in work effort in libraries
! provide batch check-in of delivery totes
! eliminate presorting, routing slips, rubber bands
RFID
" Standards are coming along for HF tags
! Interoperability across vendor products more likely
! More libraries moving to RFID will help reduce tag
costs
#New data models support delivery better
# use tag, instead of ILS connection to sort
# track deliveries
" UHF may be the spoiler
•
Cheaper
•
Longer read range but more “tune-able” than HF tags
Library Space and Staff
" Fewer book shelves in favor of more
! program, community meeting spaces
! flexible and fun kids areas
! click-free, quiet reading areas
! group work rooms
" Embedding staff
! out on the floor in public spaces
! out in the community
! in computer labs
4. Predictions
Delivery volume will continue to increase
because of the trend toward increased
sharing of resources
and the much-improved (and improving)
discovery
and
resource-sharing
software
Predictions
The dampening effect of digital media
will only serve to
s l o w d o w n
the increase in delivery volume
and will primarily only affect
DVDs and hot book titles
Predictions
Library material will increasingly be
stored
outside of public areas
where
storage and extraction
can be optimized
for better retrieval on demand
Predictions
Materials handling automation will become
standard components of library operations
because it dramatically
reduces materials handling workload for staff
and
improves service to patrons
Predictions
Automated sorting
will move in the
sharing and collaborative
direction
especially as the
sort operation
relies less and less on ILS connectivity
What Won't Work
" Choosing to “go it alone”
! one library's holdings is not enough to satisfy today's
library customers
" Continuing to use staff for materials' handling
functions instead of automation
! staff are too slow and prone to injury
" Thinking library logistics are different from
every other industry
! standards, professionalism, and technology need to
replace the home-grown approach
5. Library Delivery Affirmation
Library physical delivery will...
Be composed of shared, automated, sort centers
aka “Distribution Centers”
that do not rely on ILS connectivity
Be supported by
professional regional couriers
with employee-drivers and company owned vehicles
Provide seamless delivery across library systems
for library-to-library, and possibly
library-to-patron
library materials fulfillment services
NISO WORKING GROUP:
PHYSICAL DELIVERY OF
LIBRARY RESOURCES
Diana Silveira, Co-Chair
Tampa Bay Library Consortium
May 12, 2010
Charter
1.The increased volume and costs of library
delivery is creating a demand for more
information about how to run efficient and
effective delivery operations. The Physical
Delivery for Library Resources Working Group
(under the oversight of NISO's Discovery to
Delivery Topic Committee) is charged with
developing a Recommended Practice to help
facilitate library resource sharing.

Current Status
•Charge: Create recommended standards to
improve performance and reduce cost of physical
delivery.
•Focus: Methods for improving performance and
reducing the cost of moving materials between by
a library that owns an item and another library
whose patron wants to use the item.
•Scope: External delivery of items between
separately administered libraries.
6. Delivery of Physical Resources Work Flow
1. A patron wants an item not held in his or her home branch
2. Through either a mediated or a self-conducted search,
the patron identifies the desired item as being held in
another library
3. Once the desired item is located, an electronic request is
made to the lending library
4. The lending library ships the desired item via some
delivery method to the requesting library (or in some
cases directly to the patron)
5. The patron’s home branch checks the item out to the
patron
6. The patron returns the item to the requesting library
7. The requesting library returns the item to the home library
Recommendation Topics
1. The Physical Move
! Packaging, labeling, automation and receiving the item
2. Connections between separate administrative delivery services
3. International Delivery
! Unique issues: customs, insurance, packaging, labeling,
4. Direct Delivery to Patrons
! Methods
5. Management Considerations
! Governing structure, roles, relationships, policies, damaged and lost
policies, record keeping guidelines, contracts, communication,
evaluation, fees
6. Reducing Deliveries
! Why, how?
