1 What Is An Opac (And What Can It Do)
The OPAC, or online public access catalog, is a library catalog that lists all materials in a library's collection, including books, DVDs, periodicals, and linked e-books. It allows users to search for items, see what they have checked out, renew loans, and access interlibrary loan forms. The Peninsula College Library catalog is accessible from the college homepage and provides simple keyword and title searches to help users find library materials.
Web OPAC
This document discusses a case study of the International Management Institute Bhubaneswar (IMIB) library's implementation of a Web OPAC (Online Public Access Catalog). It provides details on the IMIB library's collections and services. Usage statistics show that the majority of students, faculty, and staff use the Web OPAC to search for books by title. The Web OPAC allows users to easily find information on books and their availability, locations, and details from anywhere via the internet. It has increased awareness of the library's resources and made searching and accessing information more convenient for IMIB library patrons.

Glasgow: OPAC 2.0 and Beyond
OPAC 2.0 and beyond aims to improve online library catalogs by incorporating more modern web features. Second generation OPACs include relevance ranking, faceted browsing, spell checking, and social features. However, OPACs still lack serendipity and recommendations seen in commercial sites. Future library systems may provide unified search across different content silos and local indexing of web resources. The role of the traditional OPAC interface is uncertain as staff and user systems continue to decouple.
Building a Single User Experience
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.
The Library as API
The document discusses how libraries currently operate in silos and are difficult for students and faculty to access and integrate into their workflows. It proposes that libraries can break down these silos by exposing their resources and services through APIs in order to seamlessly integrate with learning management systems and other tools used by students and faculty. Specific examples are provided of how APIs from discovery services and other library systems could be used to build tools that bring library resources directly into the workflows of students and instructors.
Overview of LibQual+ for Library Staff
1) The LibQual+ Survey is an online survey developed by the Association of Research Libraries to measure user perceptions of library service quality. It contains core questions about the library as a place, affect of service, and information control.
2) The LibQual+ Survey will be administered at Columbia University Libraries from February 16-23, 2009 to faculty, students, and staff. Results will provide information about user priorities and satisfaction levels to help the libraries improve services.
3) Previous LibQual+ surveys in 2003 and 2006 at Columbia identified top performing areas like electronic resources access, as well as weaknesses like quiet study spaces and the library website.

What Public Library Users Want and How to
The document summarizes Nina McHale's presentation at the 2012 LITA Forum about redesigning the Arapahoe Library District's website. It describes how staff and patron surveys identified key issues with the previous site and priorities for a new site. This informed the design of a prototype using Drupal that improved search, account functionality, and readers' advisory features. Usability testing provided feedback which was incorporated before launch. The new site aimed to make searches and accounts more prominent while better showcasing events and resources.
Mobilizing the User Experience
This document discusses mobile first and responsive design approaches for libraries. It recommends focusing on the mobile user experience of one eye and one thumb. Constraints of mobile devices present opportunities for innovation. Responsive design uses fluid grids, flexible images and media queries to automatically resize a website for different screen sizes. The technical aspects involve HTML5, CSS3 and responsive themes for content management systems like WordPress and Drupal. It is important to talk to mobile users and vendors to understand needs and integration challenges.
Opac search
The document provides instructions for using the ZU OPAC catalog to search for and access materials in the Zayed University library. It explains how to perform basic and advanced searches, view search results, access item detail pages, save items to lists or carts, place holds, and access e-books. The document also describes logging into a personal OPAC account to view checkouts, lists, and contact details.
Opac introduction
This document provides an introduction to Online Public Access Catalogs (OPACs). It defines OPACs as online library catalogs that allow users to search for and locate information on available materials like books, journals, movies and more. The history of OPAC development from early card catalogs to modern online search systems is overviewed. Basic and advanced searching, browsing, and viewing search results are also explained to demonstrate how users can navigate an OPAC.
Ten things i've learned about drupal
This document outlines 10 things the author has learned about Drupal. It recommends learning Drupal terminology, starting with a sandbox site, avoiding too many content types, checking permissions if content isn't visible, building the site structure before theming, making the content creation process easy, using contributed modules, regularly maintaining and backing up the site, connecting with the Drupal community, and developing "the Drupal way" by using themes, modules and not hacking core code.

Rachel Vacek discusses trends in web design and user expectations and how libraries can respond. She outlines current web design trends like responsive design, flat design, and large background images. User expectations include a personalized experience, quick access to resources, and mobile friendly sites. Libraries can offer full discovery of resources and services, conduct more user testing, highlight unique assets through storytelling, and follow agile development practices with gradual improvements.
Therapy for your CMS: Improving the User Experience
In web design, much of user experience design is focused on the needs and expectations of end-users. However, when developing within an open-source content management system (CMS), it becomes essential to also consider those who will be using the CMS.At the University of Houston Libraries, the Web Services department learned how essential it is to balance usability and functionality when developing a CMS after they really started using and getting feedback on their over-engineered intranet implementation in Drupal.This talk will include lessons learned from our initial mistakes, but focus primarily on the challenges and successes of the CMS built for the Libraries’ website and the methods we used for engaging users to help determine the initial direction for the development of the CMS. Attendees will leave with ideas on how to simultaneously provide flexibility and advanced tools to improve the user experience and apply “therapy” to their own CMS implementations.

Impact the UX of Your Website with Contextual Inquiry
A contextual inquiry is a research study that involves in-depth interviews where users walk through common tasks in the physical environment in which they typically perform them. It can be used to better understand the intents and motivations behind user behavior. In this session, learn what’s needed to conduct a contextual inquiry and how to analyze the ethnographic data once collected. We'll cover how to synthesize and visualize your findings as sequence models and affinity diagrams that directly inform the development of personas and common task flows. Finally, learn how this process can help guide your design and content strategy efforts while constructing a rich picture of the user experience.

Findability OPAC's Bright And Changing Future
A presentation snipet about how and why to change the Public Discovery Interface of a Library Catalog
Moving to the network level: discovery and disclosure
The bundle of functionality encapsulated in the library catalog is an artifact of a particular phase of library operations. We are now seeing a move to a different model where discovery needs to happen in a variety of network environments. This means that the library has to think about reconfiguring its systems and services. It becomes important to think about how to disclose their offerings into the places where users are.
Inforum 2007 Into The User environment
http://www.inforum.cz/en/
This presentation provides an overview of causes why library and information services are fading out of sight for most user groups and how these users and their expectations have changed without us realizing. It contains a strong plea for a focus shift for librarians, but in fact also for companies and organisations. A focus into the environments where the users are, instead of expecting them to come to us, or our resources. Exploration of all relevant user environments for your organization, the use of new web-based technologies with Web 2.0 elements and certainly a more structural technical re-design of (library) information systems is required to deliver your services and resources at the place of need. A simple short-term solution like a QuickSearch Library Toolbar is explained, several other tools to “enrich” the user’s personal search environment, as well as the more long-term ongoing work at the Libraries of the University of Groningen and the Central Medical Library of the University Medical Center Groningen.

NISO Webinar: The Future of Integrated Library Systems PART 2: User Interaction
NISO Webinar: The Future of Integrated Library Systems PART 2: User InteractionNational Information Standards Organization (NISO)
The document summarizes a webinar on May 18, 2011 about the future of integrated library systems and user interaction. The webinar featured four speakers discussing their projects focused on improving the user experience of library discovery systems. Jennifer Bowen presented on the eXtensible Catalog software being developed at the University of Rochester to give libraries more control over their metadata and interfaces. John Blyberg discussed the SOPAC library discovery system and its user-centered design. Allie Flanary and Anya Arnold then described the shared catalog system used by the Orbis Cascade Alliance and efforts to enhance it based on user research findings.Intermediation In The New User Environment
The document discusses how users are bypassing traditional library and publisher interfaces and intermediaries by using search engines, RSS feeds, blogs, and other tools. It argues that libraries and publishers need to develop more user-friendly and useful services that meet users where they are, rather than expecting users to come to the libraries and publishers. The rise of social software, mashups, and users tagging and sharing information also allows users to become their own intermediaries and bypass traditional intermediaries.

Expanding Our Horizons: Reaching for the Limits[PowerPoint]
The future of the library OPAC as a destination information portal is shaky at best. To surface library collections in today's information environment, libraries will have to move toward exposing themselves in multiple locations and through multiple methods. Looking at some of the successful ways OCLC has been able to surface the library's full capacity can give libraries one way to consider their futures.

3 - Discovery-systems
Discovery systems aim to provide a more modern and user-friendly search experience compared to traditional ILS-based OPACs. They index content from a library's ILS as well as other sources to allow patrons to search across local and remote resources from a single interface. Early discovery systems depended on regular synchronization with the ILS, but the goal became developing web-scale discovery that could harvest and index content in real-time similarly to search engines like Google. Features such as faceted navigation, relevance ranking, and recommendations are now expected in discovery interfaces to meet user expectations.

Library Impact Data Project
The document summarizes the Library Impact Data Project, which investigated the relationship between student library usage and academic performance. The project was led by the University of Huddersfield and involved several other universities. It found correlations between increased usage of library resources like books, e-journals and databases and better student grades. A second phase of the project performed a more in-depth analysis of usage metrics and confirmed a link to student outcomes. The results were shared online to help libraries demonstrate their value through data.
(H)appiness is a warm API!
The presentation discusses how Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) were used to help develop MyReading, the reading list software used by the University of Huddersfield.
Summon: The Path of Least Resistance
The document discusses how students often find Google easier to use than library resources and will choose the path of least resistance when searching for information. It notes that libraries need to make their resources simpler to access so students do not have to become "mini-librarians". Data from studies show that students are unlikely to look beyond the first page of search results and prefer accessibility over information quality. The document argues that libraries should make it easier for students to find relevant information in order to save them time and encourage continued use of library resources.
Uksg2012 dave pattern_final
This document summarizes Joseph Janes' presentation at the 2009 UKSG conference. Some key points from the presentation include:
- Janes ranted about how outdated and difficult to use online public access catalogs (OPACs) were.
- Common themes in responses to his questions on Twitter included frustration with library websites and discovery tools hindering access to e-resources.
- An example showed how finding information on Google and Wikipedia was sometimes easier than using a library's actual website.
- Janes discussed the need for library discovery tools and websites to better support students' instinct to take the easiest route to find information.
JISC LIDP ILI2011
The Library Impact Data Project analyzed the relationship between student library usage and academic performance across multiple UK universities. It found a statistically significant correlation between higher library resource usage (book loans, e-resource logins, visits) and better degree attainment. The project aims to help libraries better understand this impact and target resources to support student success.
Jisc10
Huddersfield University is using student usage data to provide personalized book and journal suggestions to students, and added borrowing suggestions to its catalogue in 2005. It is measuring the impact of this program by tracking the number of unique titles borrowed each year, the number of books borrowed, and the average number of books borrowed per active student per year.
Summon Launch
The document discusses the evolution of search tools at the University of Huddersfield library over the past 10 years, from Microsoft Word and OneLog in the early 2000s to MetaLib in 2006 and the launch of Summon in late 2004. It provides details on the content included in Summon as of the time the slide was created, such as nearly 50 million items including over 35 million journal articles, 33,000 journals, and materials from the library's collections, university repository, and more. Key dates for Summon's implementation and replacement of MetaLib are also outlined.
Mosaic Wolverhampton
The document discusses services and perspectives from the University of Huddersfield library. It provides details on enhancements made to the library catalog to add Web 2.0 inspired features like borrowing recommendations and course specific RSS feeds. Usage data is analyzed, showing increases in borrowing and the number of unique titles borrowed after recommendations were added. The library also released circulation transaction and book recommendation data as open data to be reused by others.
Web 2.0 at Huddersfield
The University of Huddersfield Library has embraced Web 2.0 technologies since 2006, including blogs, wikis, and enhancing its online catalog. Adding borrowing suggestions and personalized recommendations to the catalog increased borrowing amounts and the diversity of titles borrowed. The library also released usage data about circulation transactions and book recommendations under open licenses to encourage new uses of the data. Staff are encouraged to experiment with new technologies like QR codes and share what they learn.
Library 2.0 and the JISC MOSAIC Project
The document discusses how a university library implemented various "Web 2.0" features in their online catalog to improve the user experience and increase borrowing, including a spell checker, keyword cloud, borrowing suggestions, and course-specific RSS feeds. Usage data from over 2 million circulation transactions was then released openly to encourage others to explore and reuse the data. The JISC MOSAIC project aimed to further develop such library systems by holding a developer competition.
ILI2009: Exploiting Usage Data
The document discusses how the University of Huddersfield library exploited usage data from over 3 million borrowing transactions to provide personalized book recommendations and improve borrowing habits. Features like "people who borrowed this" suggestions and course specific RSS feeds were added. Since 2006, when recommendations were added to the catalog, the number and variety of books borrowed has increased year over year. In 2008, the library released this usage data to encourage reuse, and it was quickly converted to RDF by another university. The presentation recommends libraries capture and release aggregated usage data with open licenses to power new applications.
Cosi Opac Tweaks

Barriers to sharing data between institutions and benefits of doing so are discussed.
Cosi V Mware
The document summarizes the process taken by a university library to virtualize their Horizon library system when upgrading hardware. They initially tried moving Horizon to new physical and virtual servers running Solaris but failed due to platform incompatibilities. They then successfully migrated Horizon to a new virtual Windows server, but it initially crashed daily due to storage snapshots interfering with the Sybase database. Once snapshots were excluded for the database, the virtualized Horizon system ran smoothly.
Cosi Opac Tweaks
This document summarizes several new features being added to a university library catalog called HIP. It describes adding a spell checker to catch typos in searches and suggest corrections to avoid "dead end" pages. It also outlines integrating book ratings and comments, locating other editions using OCLC and LibraryThing APIs, and additional features like email alerts, RSS feeds, a virtual shelf browser, and tracking item usage. The presentation is available online for reuse under a Creative Commons license.
Did someone say "Free Beer"?
The document summarizes a presentation about open source software and libraries. It discusses how open source software is usually free to download but requires investments of hardware, time, and maintenance. It also covers how the price per gigabyte of storage has dramatically decreased over time, free speech benefits of open source, examples of open source software used in libraries, releasing library usage data as open data, and potential benefits of sharing more library data.
Web 2.0 and You Too
This document summarizes a presentation about Web 2.0 and Library 2.0. It discusses how Web 2.0 technologies allow for faster and more interactive experiences with user-generated content. Library 2.0 aims to actively involve users and deliver services directly to them without walls. Examples are given of libraries experimenting with new technologies like blogs, wikis, games and virtual worlds to engage users in new ways.
Sheffield
The document discusses how libraries collect and use data from users. The University of Huddersfield library collects data from turnstiles on who enters the library, books borrowed, computers used, and websites visited. This anonymous data is used to improve services like finding popular search terms and books. The library has shared some usage data with no restrictions to encourage others to analyze and build applications with the data. The author proposes that sharing usage data between libraries could help improve the student experience.
