Next Generation: Modularity “ILSes should think in
terms of linking rather than building”
Decoupling discovery and inventory management functions
Standards E-resource
management systems

Toward a New Library Information Space
Today’s Methods and Tools Web-accessible lists +
catalogs Federated searching Reference linking
(OpenURL) Portals E-resource
management systems Digital asset
management systems
Emerging Objectives Integrate access to all
library resources (print, archives, digital, e-)
Simplify digital and e-resource management (lower costs AND improve service)
Become visible in the user’s environment (i.e., on open Web, on course pages, etc.)

Outward Integration
“Integration should be outward rather than inward, with libraries seeking to use their components in new ways”
--Interviewee for LC report on future of the catalog

Longer Term Vision Switch users from where they find things to library-
managed collections of all kinds Local catalog one link in a chain of services, one repository
managed by the library More coherent and comprehensive scholarly information
systems, perhaps by discipline Infrastructure to permit global discovery and delivery of
information among open, loosely-coupled systems Critical mass of digitized publications and special
collections online Many starting points on the Web leading to many types of
scholarly information objects

Intermediate Vision Shared OPACs: begin to aggregate
discovery function for books, serials, and their e-counterparts
Draw on the local catalog’s strongest suit: support for inventory control and delivery
Larger scale collaboration on collection development/resource sharing, storage, preservation

Intermediate Vision, 2 Start to build bigger scholarly
information environments—with libraries playing a role—to aggregate more of the expanding universe of scholarly digital assets
Metadata and outreach skills = strategic assets

Intermediate Vision, 3 Beginning of the era of special
collections Aggregate discovery of digital
collections More emphasis on visual resources
