environments
4th International JISC-CNI Conference …26-27 June 2002
Five challenges for libraries to address: “critical mass aggregation local collection development integration archives”
Five areas to take action in (UKOLN): “distributed discovery location and request development of metadata coordination of national resource discovery integrated access to resources across domains organisation of distributed library resources”
using the past to find the future

talking the same talk
4th International JISC-CNI Conference …26-27 June 2002
Early findings from the pilot phase: Z39.50, distributed searching 130 commercial databases chosen, 40 implemented UNIX skills required by university staff, collaboration
facilitated this
Reactions from academics: not interested in Web sites selected by libraries or
described in catalogues keen on multi-database searches, e-journals assumed could access resources not held/subscribed to
by the university
walking the same walk

beware the ‘portal’ label"I think we're more interested in not going it alone." “The results were not blazingly fast, a fact that annoyed some students”“.. plans to become more involved in academic collaborations such as the university-sponsored Open Knowledge Initiative..”

disclosing resourcesin the proposed pilot:
EdNA Online South Seas project Australian Digital Theses Program Australian Virtual Engineering Library (AVEL) Australian National University’s e-print archive Australian Museums Online (AMOL) the U.K.’s Resource Discovery Network
(Australian resources only) the National Bibliographic Database
PANDORA, maps, manuscripts Australian Journals Online (with newspapers) online exhibitions

shining a light
the pilot resource discovery service is:
making free, significant resources more visible in the public domain
enhancing awareness and use of the intellectual output of a nation by disclosing it to a broad community, to facilitate learning, teaching and research
engendering an interest in underutilised resources
flagging resources ‘at risk’
identifying and supporting service providers of the future

is it all about libraries ? “libraries often do not present a clear vision to those responsible for library funding
the public does not see the library as part of the service they receive, but those responsible for funding need to be aware of the library’s role
libraries need to find a way to be more closely aligned with political and economic agendas
it is difficult for government agencies to get approval for plans which do not show a tangible economic benefit
it is essential that the library sector present a single voice to get funding for significant infrastructure development
there is value in trying to move the focus from strictly economic issues, although social and cultural value is not necessarily measurable in dollar terms”

are we there yet ?
“incremental change is no longer enough..
transformational change is needed to secure sustainability..”
