Mr. Ken Roberts - F103 – Reframing Our RolesJ.D. Thomas
Wednesday, March 21, 2012 - 1:30 PM – 2:30 PM
Mr Ken Roberts, President, Ken Roberts Library Consulting
The No. 1 issue for libraries planning their future is engaging staff in future planning and changing the way they view their jobs. Many library staff fear that future changes will result in their jobs being eliminated or require new skills they may have difficulty learning. Yet if everyone in the library reframes or looks through the new “frame” together to see the future, these shifts to roles, skills, and ways of working become clearer,much less frightening, and much more exciting. Join this reframing exercise and see what strategies and techniques you can come up with!

Budgets, personnel, technology, services, and information-seeking behavior are some of the factors that influence today’s libraries. During this session, we will look at some of the historical technologies, processes, and trends in cataloging and examine how they panned out. We will use that information to identify and discuss current technologies, processes, and trends to see where we might be going and how advocacy might help us change fate.
The Canadian Linked Data Initiative: Charting a Path to a Linked Data FutureNASIG
As libraries prepare to shift away from MARC to a linked data framework, new convergences in the metadata production activities of our libraries' technical services units, special collections, and digital libraries are becoming possible. In September 2015, the Canadian Linked Data Initiative (CLDI) was formed to leverage the existing collaboration between the Technical Services departments of Canada’s top 5 research libraries and the Library and Archives of Canada. Working cooperatively, our objective is to provide a path to linked data readiness for our institutions and leadership for the adoption of linked data by libraries across Canada. To achieve this goal, partner libraries are working across departments and institutions to create new workflows and tools and adapt to a new conceptual understanding of descriptive metadata. This presentation is a preliminary report on the progress made in five key areas of interest: digital collections, education and training, MARC record enhancement, evaluation of linked data tools and vendor supplied metadata. Building on existing initiatives, the CLDI is investigating the potential of integrating linked data elements into digitized collections, as well as MARC-based bibliographic and authority records, with the aim of fostering new and interesting pathways for resource discovery. To strengthen and expand the professional knowledge of staff, partner institutions are collaborating in the production of educational and training materials related to linked data principles and practices. The evaluation and potential development of linked data tools is another area of concentration. Finally, with the goal of changing workflows upstream, the CLDI is working to engage publishers and vendors in the linked data conversation. In addition to reporting on the work undertaken in the first year of the project, this presentation will also cover lessons learned and outline some of the new opportunities gained from working on a collaborative project that spans across multiple boundaries.

Building a Better Knowledgebase: An Investigation of Current Practical Uses a...NASIG
While knowledgebases have become essential tools for electronic resources management, little research has been done about how practitioners have integrated them into their everyday workflows. Inspired by a partnership with the GOKb project, which aims to build an open source knowledgebase, librarians at North Carolina State University set out to investigate the practical requirements, areas of improvement, and desired enhancements that librarians have for their knowledgebases. During this program, the presenters will describe the results of a survey about knowledgebase use sent to electronic resources managers across the country. The survey results will be supplemented by individual points of view gathered from in-depth interviews with selected respondents.The program will conclude with a look at how the findings of the investigation can be applied to the GOKb project. At the end of the session, the attendee should walk away with an understanding of trends in knowledgebase management, areas where the greatest improvement is needed, and ideas for enhancing knowledgebase functionality in an open source setting.

Web-Scale Discovery: Post ImplementationRachel Vacek
Discovery services provide users a single
search box to access a library’s entire prei-ndexed collection. Representatives from
two academic libraries serving different
user populations will discuss marketing,
instructing users, evaluating the product,
and maintaining the resource after a
discovery service is implemented
The Open Discovery Initiative (ODI) is a National Information Standards Organization (NISO) Working Group formed to develop a recommended practice in the area of index-based library discovery services. These single search services, ever-more relied upon as a primary basis for accessing a library’s collections, have improved the research experience immensely, but they remain firmly seated in a heterogeneous ecosystem consisting of diverse players with individual interests. With the intent of streamlining communications and processes in order to better serve library end users, ODI is investigating the stakeholder landscape in the following areas: data format and data transfer; communication of libraries’ rights to specific content; level of indexing performed for content; definition of fair linking to published content; exchange of usage data between discovery providers and information providers. This session will report on the progress of the group’s research work, including interviews and surveys of stakeholders, and preview the Draft ODI Recommended Practice, expected to be released for public comment soon after the Coalition for Networked Information spring 2013 membership meeting.

Interlibrary Loan Code for the United States
Explanatory Supplement, Revised 2007
“Technology has expanded accessibility options beyond traditional
library-to-library transactions. Unmediated requests, direct-to-
user delivery, purchase-on-demand options, and increasing full
text availability are exciting developments in resource sharing.
At present, the Interlibrary Loan Code provides guidelines for
established practices. However, libraries and other information
centers are encouraged to explore and use non-traditional
means where available to ensure maximum accessibility and
convenience for users. More information for libraries interested
in new ideas for resource sharing can be found at:
http://www.ala.org/ala/rusa/rusaourassoc/rusasections/stars/stars
sections/committeesa/rrscomm/rrscomm.htm”
Redefining “available”
• Boucher’s ILL Handbook excludes owned or “should have owned”
items, regardless of status
• ILL/DD discussion recently
– Majority said they request if checked out
– “The original rule…dates from a time when ILL service was limited to
faculty & graduate students & when libraries expected to collect
everything their clientele would normally need. Things are different now.”

NCIP Update: Growing
Pains
Candy Zemon, NCIP -IG chair
Despite many current
successful implementations
of both direct consortial
borrowing and self service
applications, NCIP is not yet
as widely used as developers
might wish. There are several
real and pe rceived hurdles
slowing more widespread
adoption. The NCIP
Implementers’ Group spent
its September meeting
addressing those issues.
Eight specific problem areas
formed the agenda of the
three -day meeting.
1. extension mechanism
2. smaller messages
3. DTD/schema
4. transport options
5. reported defects
6. profile structure and
purpose
7. supporting
documentation for
developers and other
interest groups
8. ILL/wider resource
sharing ramifications
Coming out of this meeting
are several specific initiatives
to produce documentation
and examples, to correct a
small number of defects
identified over the last few

• Overlapping standards exist
– Gap between ISO ILL and NCIP
– Focus is on physical items
• No clear preferred paths; still a maze
• Many non-standard links exist
• Proprietary solutions common
• Interoperability is possible but not always easy
We have lots of work to do on standards
and
implementing them!

Next Steps
• Adding more scenarios
– Paths through the landscape
– Barriers to success
• Adding overlay of future, desired landscape
– True interoperability
– Physical and electronic
– Patron-focused
– Standards-based
Future: Standards, WebAPIs, Mashups
• ISO ILL (ISO 10160/10161)
– Reconfirmed 2007
– No enhancements planned
• NISO Circulation Interchange Protocol (Z39.83)
– V. 2 ballot approved
– Huge promise for ILL & ILS interoperability
• Non-Standard User Appliances
– LibraryThing
– LibraryElf
– MyLibrary and social networking sites
Rethinking: How can you help?
• Offer patron-initiated requesting; service to all
• Create/join a regional resource sharing consortium
• Automate staff processes
• Review policies – are they really necessary?
• Consider “radical” changes
– Home delivery
– Floating collections
– Collective collection development
– No due dates; recall item when requested
– Incentives for early return instead of overdue fines
Librarians,
throw off your
policies &
expose your resources!
