TRANSCRIPT
MyLibrary 3.x is a “toolbox” with four major parts
1. Resources
2. Facet/term combinations
3. Librarians
4. Patrons
MyLibrary creates relationships
Example implementations
University Libraries of Notre Dame (subjects, formats, tools)
MyLibrary@Ockham Catholic “Portal” MyLibrary@Infomotions
Expectations have changed
People expect to be able to do information work from their desks
People expect to get the full-text of their information, not just its metadata
People expect to be able to do things with the full-text, such as: download, email, annotate, review, etc.
“Next generation” library catalogs will probably… Be more of a finding aid Include not just metadata, but the data
itself, such as: full-text books, journal articles, pictures, data sets, etc.
Be as much about services applied against the data as the data itself
MyLibrary as a part of a “NGC”
