Abstract
Marshall Breeding will provide an overview of the genre of products and services that provide resource search and discovery for libraries. The presentation will include an overview of the slate of products available, the companies that provide them and their business perspectives. Breeding will describe the basic functionality addressed in these products, their scope of search, and the data or connectivity models involved. Perspectives will also be offered on the value of these products to libraries, how they benefit library users, and the implications for content providers.

Differentiation in Discovery
Products increasingly specialized between public and academic libraries
Public libraries: emphasis on engagement with physical collection
Academic libraries: concern for discovery of heterogeneous material types, especially books + articles + digital objects
Discovery from Local to Web-scale Initial products focused on technology
AquaBrowser, Endeca, Primo, Encore, VuFind Mostly locally-installed software
Current phase focused on pre-populated indexes that aim to deliver Web-scale discovery Summon (Serials Solutions) WorldCat Local (OCLC) EBSCO Discovery Service (EBSCO) Primo Central Encore with Article Integration
