- 1. Integration and Filtering: Creating visibility across library resources using NGL an OSS By Emmanuel Ebnazar Seminar on "Enhancing Access to Library Resources. A Critical Discussion, Examination and Evaluation of Web-Scale Discovery Services" Organized by SLA Asian Chapter in collaboration with Jain University & KALA, sponsored by ProQuest Date: 14th Oct 2014 Venue: Jain University, JC Road Campus, Bangalore. 1
- 2. Why LMS with information services, KM & Social media features • Different tools for library automation, IR or Digital Library, social networking, KM, Search Engines - Inconvenience to library/ians in terms of Cost & Effort involved in IT infrastructure required in hosting, maintaining these different tools. • Library resources dispersed on different databases/locations – Inconvenience to users, as user had to search multiple databases/search engines for a piece of information required. • Library services dispersed on different locations – Difficult for users to follow – Content Pages, New Arrivals, New Book Request, User self Services, Newsletters. 2
- 3. Why LMS with information services, KM & Social media features This situation was defeating /damaging the purpose/sprit of 2nd 3rd and 4th laws of library science. 3
- 4. Other influencing factors-Changing Scenario • Increase in the scope of media handled by libraries-Physical to electronic, with different file formats. • Increase in the scope of library services-Circulation, electronic media, information service, KM, social networking. • Library services to the users from different generations and changes in media preferences. Influence of Social media. • Changing trends in Publication Industry (Print & Electronic). • Changing business models/pricing of e-resources databases/ aggregators. 4
- 5. Other influencing factors-Changing Scenario • Open Access Initiatives • Library Competitors which are not taken seriously by LIS profession but have detrimental impact on library and they are; – User self managed e-Journal and e-book databases (without librarian). – Online vendors allowing users to buy e-book and download on e-readers. – Commercial library service providers like Just Books Inc, Kwench Inc providing library services in India threatening survival of corporate & special libraries. 5
- 6. Other influencing factors-Changing Scenario • Increasing cost of commercial Library automation software. • Increase in the cost of publications and in contrast dwindling Library Budget. 6
- 7. Solutions: Single tool/Platform • A single tool with which the library community is familiar and further which can be exploited and used not only for library automation but can also be used for Digital Library resources, knowledge sharing and social networking. This is the one solution among various solutions available to cope up with the existing situation in LIS 7
- 8. Review of Literature • Literature search on “Library automation tool” for “DL”, “KM” and “Social Media” – Ten important papers. • Single tool is still not a focused area of research among library researches. • Though there are some theoretical papers which describes how a single tool can be used for library automation, DL,IR & KM but these concepts to be practically checked and realized by the library researchers or library software developers. 8
- 9. Review & Selection of Tool • Studied two open source LMS and two commercial LMS. • Finalized NGL software that meets requirements of present day libraries; a single tool with which the library community is familiar and which can be exploited and used not only for library automation but also for DL/IR, KM and Social Networking. 9
