Presentation overview
A Brief HistoryThe OrganisationCurrent Projects / Upcoming events
How Did It All Start?
The development of the ISO ILL Protocol was unsatisfactory
Lack of interoperability between systems
OCLC Report ”Perceptions of Libraries and Information Resources”, 2005
Findings
Only 1% of individuals consult a library web page or online catalogues to begin their search for information
While 84% use a search engine like Google or Yahoo
Action
Ensure that library collections and holdings are displayed in search results – e.g Google
Another report from OCLC: ”Environmental Scan: Pattern Recognition”, 2003
Three major trends identified
People are moving on from self-service to self-sufficiency
They are satisfied with the results they get from search engines
They want seamless access
