Challenges facing librarians• Shrinking library budgets due to economic downturn• Increased scrutiny and pressure on demonstrating return on investment• Broader range of research products available in the market

“Libraries are attempting to face a future in which almost every fixed point has disappeared. Users are changing; content is changing; research is taking new forms.”

Derek Law Centre for Digital Library Research

“Approximately 90% of the 10 billion pages that will be added to the web over the next year to be spam… The massive flooding of the web with endless copies and permutations and shadows of existing things is what is pulling the rug out from under link-based search rankings... Links don't represent a human voting on the quality of a site anymore.”

Rich Skrenta, CEO of BlekkoThe "Useless Garbage" Of The Web, Jan 10, 2011

The problem isn’t having too much information…

…It’s about accessing the right information, at the right time, in the right place, in an efficient and effective way

But do your users want more?

Spain By The Numbers:• In the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy, smartphone

penetration reached 31.1% of mobile users.• In December 2010, viewers from Germany, the UK, and Spain

spent more time watching online videos than those in the US

“Spain is among the top 10 European countries with the highest penetration of social networking sites”

Customer feedback on SciVerse Applications

24

“I was able to quickly locate some new things happening in my discipline, and also just outside of my expertise. The app was simple and returned results in no time at all.”

Assistant professor, Swinburne Univ. of Technology Australia

“Time needed to find new microwave synthesis of some compounds 6-8 hours. After using the application: 30-45 minutes.”

Post doctorate researcher, Institute of Chemistry Timisoara of Romanian Academy

Meet Bill

“I want to better navigate people through the distributed information space we live in.”

Head of Grainger Engineering Library Information Center & Information Resource Support Librarian for the

University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

SciVerse “allows for a very healthy environment of experimentation …The idea is to build an environment that provides access to other information resources. It’s a ‘no-limit’ type of situation…”

“…By changing just a couple of lines of code, the Viewer can be adapted for any library, and there are hundreds of them using VuFind.” -- Bill
