This document summarizes a presentation about enhancing the functionality of OPAC (online public access catalog) systems. It discusses findings from a survey that found users give low ratings to the usability and features of typical OPACs. The presentation describes efforts at the University of Huddersfield to "OPAC 2.0" by adding modern web features to their system like spell checking, borrowing suggestions, and tags. These changes led to increased usage. The document advocates experimenting with new OPAC features and sharing ideas between libraries to improve user experience beyond just "putting lipstick on a pig".
Policy Forum Series: Teller - The Changing Role of Natural Gas in the United ...Environmental Initiative
The document summarizes a presentation given by Katherine Teller of the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) about the changing role of natural gas in the United States. The presentation covers current natural gas markets and supply, the short-term outlook for natural gas which expects a rise in prices in 2013, and the long-term outlook to 2035 in which natural gas production and use, especially for electric power generation, are expected to continue increasing substantially according to EIA projections.
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- Janes ranted about how outdated and difficult to use online public access catalogs (OPACs) were.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.
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.
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.
This document discusses how social media tools related to Web 2.0 can enhance library services. It defines Web 2.0 as enabling collaboration, participation, sharing and transparency among users. Social media tools like blogs, wikis, Twitter, Facebook, social bookmarking, QR codes and augmented reality apps allow users to interact and engage with the library in new ways. The document encourages libraries to explore these tools and take risks in opening their services to possibilities of Web 2.0.

Equity markets nearing a bottom? Can one start SIP in midcap funds?Dhuraivel Gunasekaran
The document discusses mid and small cap mutual funds as an investment opportunity. It notes that mid and small cap stocks have fallen more than large caps recently but tend to outperform when markets recover. It recommends that high risk investors consider staggered investments in mid cap funds over 15-24 months as the equity market nears bottoming out. Mid and small caps are seen as offering higher growth potential due to their business life cycles and ability to gain market share, though they also carry higher risk than large caps.
If you choose a career interior design, chances are money is not your focus, but doing good, designing experiences and making people happy is. In this presentation we help you realize your passion, and discuss ways to apply it. Great content for students and young professionals.
Building Fund Of Funds Portfolios During Challenging TimesElliot Noma
This document discusses Asset Alliance Corporation's approach to constructing fund of funds portfolios during volatile market conditions in 2008. It summarizes challenges in 2008 including uncertain asset valuations and unstable markets. It then outlines Asset Alliance's study to cluster managers based on historical return profiles, examine how valid those clusters are, and determine if similar past return patterns predict future performance. The document provides examples of clustered manager styles and time periods of strong and weak performance.
The document provides information about careers in interior design, including job outlook data, average pay statistics, and tips for developing an online presence and professional network. It notes that employment of interior designers is expected to grow 19% by 2020 and that the median annual wage in 2010 was $51,990. It encourages interior designers to know their strengths and brand, share their story online and offline, and leverage professional organizations and social media to build their network.
Uranium production fell dramatically in the 1990s due to low prices and the closure of mines. However, uranium has seen a resurgence in the past decade due to growing demand for nuclear power in countries like China and India. The uranium spot price has risen from $7 per pound in 2002 to as high as $137 in 2007, driving increased exploration worldwide to address supply shortfalls. Over $1.5 billion has been invested in uranium exploration in Canada alone in the past three years. However, utilities have been cautious amid the recession, while Asian buyers aggressively secure long-term supply agreements. The supply crunch could lead to further price increases in the coming years.
Why 85% of Decisions Made in Your Organization are Wrong and How to Fix It!MPCA
1. The document discusses why 85% of decisions may be wrong and how to improve decision making. It explores Deming's view that over 90% of decisions aimed at improvement are misguided.
2. Key strategies discussed for better decision making include understanding systems thinking, using data to detect real trends rather than reacting to normal variation, and applying profound knowledge of processes to design improvements.
3. The alternative to traditional management approaches is discussed as profound knowledge - understanding systems, variation, psychology, and knowledge to guide decision making. Plotting data over time to detect real changes is emphasized.
The presentation discusses how Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) were used to help develop MyReading, the reading list software used by the University of Huddersfield.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
This document summarizes several features that have been implemented in a library catalog called HIP. It discusses implementing a spellchecker using GNU Aspell or Yahoo services to catch spelling errors. It also describes using OCLC and LibraryThing APIs to find other editions and related works. Other mentioned features include email alerts, RSS feeds, getting XML output from the catalog, integrating with Google Book Search, a virtual shelf browsing feature called ticTOCs, and tracking item usage.
This document summarizes a presentation about collecting and analyzing library usage data and sharing it openly. The presentation discusses the types of data libraries collect, including circulation transactions, search queries, and e-resource usage. It shows examples of visualizing and analyzing the data. It also explains how the University of Huddersfield released two million circulation transactions as open data under Creative Commons, and the potential benefits of further sharing data between libraries. Barriers to sharing data between institutions and benefits of doing so are discussed.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Examples are given of libraries experimenting with new technologies like blogs, wikis, games and virtual worlds to engage users in new ways.
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.
The document discusses the evolution of online public access catalogs (OPACs) from the 1980s to present. It describes OPAC 1.0 as basic online card catalogs with poor search functionality. OPAC 2.0 introduced some Web 2.0 features like spellcheck and faceted browsing but lacked social features. The document advocates for open source OPACs and using web services to power discovery beyond the traditional library catalog and into new formats and resources. It envisions a more personalized discovery experience that mines usage data to provide customized recommendations.
The document discusses opportunities to improve online public access catalogs (OPACs) and move them towards an "OPAC 2.0" model. It summarizes surveys that found users give low ratings to existing OPACs and describes efforts at the University of Huddersfield to enhance their system with features like spell checking, keyword suggestions, and integration of library resources. The presentation advocates for an experimental and user-centered approach to OPAC development, and highlights open-source systems and web services that can power new features to create a more modern online experience for library users.
1) The document discusses the evolution of the web from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 and how libraries are adopting Web 2.0 technologies and principles to become more user-centered and participatory, an approach called Library 2.0.
2) Key aspects of Library 2.0 include using blogs, wikis, tags and other Web 2.0 tools to involve users, deliver services directly to them, and make library data more accessible and useful.
3) The document advocates that libraries embrace change, take risks, experiment with new technologies, and make play an important part of innovation.

14. OPAC Survey (2007)
• One criticism of OPACs is that they rarely
have cutting edge features that our users
expect from a modern web site.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how well do you
think your OPAC meets the needs and
expectations of your users?

16. Experiences at Huddersfield
• definitely not OPAC 2.0
• enhancements to the existing OPAC
– user suggestions from surveys
– “2.0” inspired features
– borrowing good ideas from other web sites
– new features launched with no/low publicity
– “perpetual beta”
• required staff buy-in and a willingness to
experiment and take risks
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #16
17. Spell Checker
• we monitored keyword searches over a six
month period and discovered approx
23% of searches gave zero results
– most OPACs present the user with a “dead
end” page
– a good search engine should still give the user
options on a failed search (“did you mean?”)
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #17
19. Keyword Suggestions
• failed keyword searches are cross
referenced with www.answers.com to
provide new search suggestions
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #19
21. Borrowing Suggestions
• we had details of over 2,000,000 CKOs
spanning 10 years stored in the library
management system and gathering virtual
dust
• Web 2.0 – “Data is the Next Intel Inside1”
• historic circulation data can be mined2 to
uncover the hidden trends and links
between potentially disparate library items
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #21
24. Other Editions
• uses FRBR-y web services provided by
OCLC and LibraryThing to locate other
editions and related works within local
holdings

36. Lipstick on the Pig
“We need to focus more energy on
important, systemic changes rather than
cosmetic ones. If your system is more
difficult to search and less effective than
Amazon.com, then you have work to do.
After all, you can put lipstick on a pig, but
it's still very much a pig.”
(Roy Tennant, Library Journal, 2005)
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #36
37. Problems ...Challenges!
• there was no formal process for discussing
and agreeing new OPAC features
– so we organised a web/library 2.0 afternoon for staff
• some initial scepticism from staff
– would users think borrowing suggestions were formal
recommendations from the library?
– aren’t borrowing suggestions just for selling books?
– how relevant will the suggestions be?
• would sudden changes confuse users?
06/Nov/2007 Talis Insight 2007: Inspiration for Change #37
38. Solutions
• encourage suggestions from staff
• include users in decision making process
• encourage play and experimentation
• don’t be afraid to make mistakes!
• look widely for ideas
• “build crappy prototypes fast”
• monitor usage
– if usage is poor then remove it
