About this WikiThanks to all from the New York library community who participated in the
2008 Resource Sharing Summit October 23-24 in Saratoga Springs, NY.
Lively roundtables, panels and thought-provoking presentations helped frame the discussion about the future of resource sharing discovery and delivery.
The summit was open to library staff and directors/administrators from all types of libraries.
- Keynote speaker Rush Miller, University Librarian and Director of the University Librarian System, University of Pittsburgh, shared his thoughts on how two different types of consortia have evolved--and what the "next gen" might be.
- Katie Birch, OCLC Portfolio Manager, OCLC Europe, exposed new pathways in OCLC resource sharing
- Other topics included reporting from the Discovery and Delivery Working Groups, roundtable discussions and explorations of resource sharing models.
- Presentations and notes are being posted here during the week of October 27--please take a look and start or join in a discussion.
