The document discusses the emergence of web-scale library platforms that move away from locally-housed systems towards globally shared platforms. These new library services platforms offer opportunities for libraries to operate less in isolated silos and more within broad, web-scale environments of highly shared data and unified workflows across physical, digital, and electronic collections. Discovery services have led the way towards this web-scale approach, and library management systems are now following a similar path.

THE WEB-SCALE LIBRARY A GLOBAL APPROACH Marshall Breeding Director for Innovative Technology and Research Vanderbilt University Library Founder and Publisher, Library Technology Guides http://www.librarytechnology.org/ http://twitter.com/mbreeding 3 March 2012 UKSG Conference 2012
- 2. Abstract One of the main vectors of change in library automation involves the emergence of a new slate of products that move libraries away from locally-housed systems to global platforms. These new Library Services Platforms offer libraries an opportunity to operate less in self-contained silos of data and functionality, but rather to work in broad Web- scale environments of highly shared data, unified workflows across the physical, digital, and electronic materials that comprise their collections. Discovery services have led the way toward this Web-scale approach and now library management is travelling a similar path. Breeding will present a conceptual overview of this new model of library automation and a practical update on the products and services within this new genre and their current status of development or

Appropriate Automation Infrastructure Current automation products out of step with current realities Majority of library collection funds spent on electronic content Majority of automation efforts support print activities New discovery solutions help with access to e- content Management of e-content continues with inadequate supporting infrastructure
- 5. Transition to Web-scale Technologies Web-scale: a characterization or marketing tag that denotes a comprehensive, highly- scalable, globally shared model Web-scale: One of the key characteristics of emerging library management and discovery services Displaces applications or data models targeting individual libraries in isolation Discovery: index-based search Management: Library Services Platforms

- 15. Expanding the Depth of Discovery
- 16. Citations / Metadata > Full Text Citations or structured metadata provide key data to power search & retrieval and faceted navigation Indexing Full-text of content amplifies access Important to understand depth indexing Currency,dates covered, full-text or citation Many other factors

- 18. Challenge for Relevancy Technically feasible to index hundreds of millions or billions of records through Lucene or SOLR Difficult to order records in ways that make sense Many fairly equivalent candidates returned for any given query Must rely on use-based and social factors to improve relevancy rankings
- 19. Challenges for Collection Coverage To work effectively, discovery services need to cover comprehensively the body of content represented in library collections What about publishers that do not participate? Is content indexed at the citation or full-text level? What are the restrictions for non-authenticated users? How can libraries understand the differences in coverage among competing services?
- 20. Evaluating the Coverage of Index- based Discovery Services Intense competition: how well the index covers the body of scholarly content stands as a key differentiator Difficult to evaluate based on numbers of items indexed alone. Important to ascertain now your library’s content packages are represented by the discovery service. Important to know what items are indexed by citation and which are full text Important to know whether the discovery service favors the content of any given publisher
- 21. Open Discovery Initiative NISO Work Group to Develop Standards and Recommended Practices for Library Discovery Services Based on Indexed Search Informal meeting called at ALA Annual 2011 Co-Chaired by Marshall Breeding and Jenny Walker Term: Dec 2011 – May 2013
- 22. Open Discovery Initiative stakeholders Libraries: provide discovery services on behalf of their patrons Publishers: provide content to be indexed by discovery services Discovery Service Provides: develop discovery interfaces and populate indexes
- 23. ODI Project Goals: Identify … needs and requirements of the three stakeholder groups in this area of work. Create recommendations and tools to streamline the process by which information providers, discovery service providers, and librarians work together to better serve libraries and their users. Provide effective means for librarians to assess the level of participation by information providers in discovery services, to evaluate the breadth and depth of content indexed and the degree to which this content is made available to the user.
- 25. Cloud Computing Major trend in Information Technology Term “in the cloud” has devolved into marketing hype, but cloud computing in the form of multi-tenant software as a service offers libraries opportunities to break out of individual silos of automation and engage in widely shared cooperative systems Opportunities for libraries to leverage their combined efforts into large-scale systems with more end-user impact and organizational efficiencies
- 26. Fundamental technology shift Mainframe computing Client/Server Cloud Computing http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrick/61952845/ http://soacloudcomputing.blogspot.com/2008/10/cloud-computing.html http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-10-2001/jw-1019-jxta.html
- 27. Library Automation in the Cloud Almost all library automation vendors offer some form of “cloud-based” services Server management moves from library to Vendor Subscription-based business model Comprehensive annual subscription payment Offsets local server purchase and maintenance Offsets some local technology support
- 28. Software as a Service Multi Tennant SaaS is the modern approach One copy of the code base serves multiple sites Software functionality delivered entirely through Web interfaces No workstation clients Upgrades and fixes deployed universally Usually in small increments
- 29. Data as a service SaaS provides opportunity for highly shared data models WorldCat: one globally shared copy that serves all libraries Primo Central: central index of articles maintained by Ex Libris shared by all libraries implementing Primo / Primo Central KnowledgeWorks database of e-journal holdings shared among all customers of Serials Solutions products General opportunity to move away from library-by- library metadata management to globally shared workflows
- 30. Leveraging the Cloud Moving legacy systems to hosted services provides some savings to individual institutions but does not result in dramatic transformation Globally shared data and metadata models have the potential to achieve new levels of operational efficiencies and more powerful discovery and automation scenarios that improve the position of libraries overall.
- 31. Is the status quo sustainable? ILS for management of (mostly) print Duplicative financial systems between library and campus Electronic Resource Management (non-integrated with ILS) OpenURL Link Resolver w/ knowledge base for access to full-text electronic articles Digital Collections Management platforms (CONTENTdm, DigiTool, etc.) Institutional Repositories (DSpace, Fedora, etc.) Discovery-layer services for broader access to library collections No effective integration services / interoperability among disconnected systems, non-aligned metadata schemes

- 35. Comprehensive Resource Management No longer sensible to use different software platforms for managing different types of library materials ILS + ERM + OpenURL Resolver + Digital Asset management, etc. very inefficient model Flexible platform capable of managing multiple type of library materials, multiple metadata formats, with appropriate workflows
- 36. Libraries need a new model of library automation Not an Integrated Library System or Library Management System The ILS/LMS was designed to help libraries manage print collections Generally did not evolve to manage electronic collections Other library automation products evolved: Resource Management Systems – Electronic OpenURL Link Resolvers – Digital Library Management Systems -- Institutional Repositories
- 37. Library Services Platform Library-specific software. Designed to help libraries automate their internal operations, manage collections, fulfillment requests, and deliver services Services Service oriented architecture Exposes Web services and other API’s Facilitates the services libraries offer to their users Platform General infrastructure for library automation Consistent with the concept of Platform as a Service Library programmers address the APIs of the platform to extend functionality, create connections with other systems, dynamically interact with data
- 38. Library Services Platform Characteristics Highly Shared data models Knowledgebase architecture Some may take hybrid approach to accommodate local data stores Delivered through software as a service Multi-tenant Unified workflows across formats and media Flexible metadata management MARC – Dublin Core – VRA – MODS – ONIX New structures not yet invented Open APIs for extensibility and interoperability
- 39. Beyond the legacy Library Management System Find a new term for the successor to the LMS Library Management System now viewed as print-centric Need to designate a name for the new genre of automation products
- 40. Open Systems Achieving openness has risen as the key driver behind library technology strategies Libraries need to do more with their data Ability to improve customer experience and operational efficiencies Demand for Interoperability Open source – full access to internal program of the application Open API’s – expose programmatic interfaces to data and functionality
