Discovery happens elsewhere - New Librarians Global Connection: best practice...Aaron Tay
This document discusses trends in library discovery and usage patterns observed from 2012 to 2014. It notes the increasing popularity of discovery through services like Google Scholar rather than traditional library databases. Usage of the library's discovery service and proxy bookmarklet for off-campus access have increased substantially in this period.

An Introduction To The Use Of Widgets in librariesAaron Tay
1. Widgets are small web applications that can be added to websites, blogs, and desktops to provide dynamic content and functionality. Examples include search tools, calendars, maps, and social media badges.
2. Libraries commonly use widgets to promote resources by embedding searches, links to pages and databases, and RSS feeds. Custom toolbars and bookmarklets can also be used to enhance online services.
3. Popular pre-made widgets can be easily added to pages by copying embed codes. Alternatively, widgets can be created using tools that generate code from RSS feeds without programming skills. More advanced customization requires knowledge of technologies like JavaScript.
