CONVERGENCE AND DIVERGENCE OF AUTOMATED SYSTEMS
Simposium Internacional: Hacia una evaluación y acreditación de bibliotecas universitarias

Marshall Breeding will share his view of the current state of library automation systems for academic libraries, including recent developments in the realm of integrated library systems and discovery systems. The dynamics of the industry include a number of evolved systems facing a coming wave of automation platforms built anew with different conceptual foundations. Open source and proprietary products compete vigorously. Discovery has split away from the core automation systems as a new genre that offers library users a unified tool for interacting with library collections rather than the fractured approach of traditional library websites.
Summary
Marshall Breeding presentará su punto de vista de la situación actual de los sistemas de automatización de bibliotecas para las bibliotecas académicas, incluidos los últimos acontecimientos en el ámbito de sistemas integrados de bibliotecas y sistemas de descubrimiento. La dinámica de la industria incluyen una serie de sistemas evolucionó hacia una próxima ola de plataformas de automatización construido de nuevo con diferentes fundamentos conceptuales. El software de código abierto y productos propietarios compiten vigorosamente. Discovery ha separado de los sistemas de automatización básico como un nuevo género que ofrece a los usuarios la colección de una herramienta unificada para la interacción con colecciones de las bibliotecas en lugar del enfoque fractura de los sitios web tradicionales de la biblioteca.
Key Context: Libraries in Transition Shift from Print > Electronic Increasing emphasis on subscribed
content, especially articles and databases
Strong emphasis on digitizing local collections
Demands for enterprise integration and interoperability
Key Context: Library Users in Transition
New generations of library users: Millennial generation
Self sufficient – reluctant to seek assistance Perceive themselves as competent to use
information tools without help Web savvy / Digital natives Pervasive Web 2.0 concepts / Inherently collaborative work styles
Key Context: Technologies in transition
XML / Web services / Service-oriented Architecture
Beyond Web 2.0 Integration of social computing into core
infrastructure Local computing shifting to cloud platforms
SaaS / private cloud / public cloud Full spectrum of devices
full-scale / net book / tablet / mobile Mobile the current focus, but is only one
example of device and interface cycles
Key Trends in Latin America
Increased cooperative automation
Separate automation efforts by each faculdad within a university Diverse practices, record standards, automation tools
University-wide automation Consolidate automation of all campus libraries into
one platform Unified cataloging practice Standard use of MARC21
Cooperation among Universities Interlibrary loan / Resource sharing
National / International cooperation
From CDS/ISIS to ABCD
Widespread use of CDS/ISIS family of information management tools
Rio Declaration on the Future of the ISIS Software http://www.librarytechnology.org/ltg-displaytext.pl?RC=13580
Development centered in BIREME in Brazil Recent work involves transition from freely distributed
proprietary software to true open source Open source ILS based on ISIS foundation:
Automatización de Bibliotecas y Centros de Documentación ABCD Formally launched Dec 9, 2009 http://bvsmodelo.bvsalud.org/php/level.php?lang=es&component
=27&item=13 Interest in preserving expertise and data currently managed
Tags, user-supplied ratings and reviews Leverage social networking interactions to
assist readers in identifying interesting materials: BiblioCommons
Leverage use data for a recommendation service of scholarly content based on link resolver data: Ex Libris bX service
Move beyond Web 2.0 mindset of social computing as an add-on to an infrastructure inherently based on collaborative computing models.
Discovery product Trend
Initial products focused on technology Commercial: AquaBrowser, Endeca, Primo, Encore, Open Source: VuFind, Hydra (was Blacklight) 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

Collection platforms Vendor-supplied indexes of library content
E-journals, databases, e-books Full-text and metadata corresponding to e-content
subscriptions Book collections beyond local library collections
Convergence
Increased opportunities for cooperative automation
More open source software now available Technologies converging around Web
services to enable new opportunities for interoperability
Divergence
Many different kinds of specialized software to manage different aspects of library services and collections
New genre of end-user discovery software able to unify diverse services under a single interface
