dk to any great degree during the selection process'. The report notes that users do not use 'library staff, the local library catalog, or bibliotek. You can configure it with the selection of book sites, library sites, and your zip code.
The project page is hosted at Ithaka: will it also host an Organization for Open Source Software as discussed in the report?
The location of the user, which Google recognizes, helps determine what is presented.
Click it to capture the citation. In one followup workshop, the idea of a personal contact for each unit was welcomed.
In some cases it was not clear to them what staff had to offer, or they did not want to disturb staff who were sitting at workstations.
Overall, one could imagine how it could be more specialized to the needs of those interested in this topic and how the various services presented could be more integrated. I would have been interested to learn what they see as priorities: what are the three or four things that JISC could fund to effectively advance some of the topics they describe.
The academic library community does not have non commercial alternatives in a similar way.
The report notes that the 'vast majority' of users will state that Google has a 'sparse selection of literature'. CURL, for non-UK readers, is the consortium of research libraries in the UK and Ireland. So, for example, the ability of Worldcat. Interestingly, the main Google search engine is not included.
More importantly, there are specific options when Zotero recognizes a page it knows how to scrape from: you see an icon in the location bar, like the RSS icon when Firefox discovers a feed.
to get back to the main point, my answer at the time can be summed up pretty simply. CURL, for non-UK readers, is the consortium of research libraries in the UK and Ireland. The report notes that users do not use 'library staff, the local library catalog, or bibliotek. Does this mean no libraries have these books? This is done for purposes of searching, browsing, discovery, translation, mapping, semantic reasoning, subject indexing and classification, harvesting, alerting etc. These are wide-ranging and it is instructive to see what they think is important or advisable. They are working towards a wider range of 'research support services' of which the institutional repository may be a part, and towards a new sense of discovery in a very changed network world.
Indeed, institutions are already investing significant amounts in locally developed solutions given market failures, which leads to redundant effort. Currently it checks prices in several book buying sites, will look in selected library sites, or will interact with Worldcat. Unless, again, it is qualified in use.
What is interesting here is that a national library is imaginatively developing real services which show how library services are complementary to, and can be enhanced by, crowdsourcing approaches. You will notice that I use it in slightly different ways above. Other areas are noted, including, fleetingly, library systems, but are not a main focus.
Does this mean no libraries have these books?
