2009 IDS Search

Mike Curtis

The document describes a proposed discovery tool called IDS Search that would allow library patrons to simultaneously search the collections of libraries in the Information Delivery Services (IDS) consortium. IDS Search would provide a well-designed interface to search library holdings via the OCLC WorldCat API and integrate additional data sources like Google Books. It would also allow searching at the local, consortial, and worldwide level. A proof of concept was developed by a technical and usability group. IDS and OLIS are now exploring hosting options to make a standalone, centrally hosted version of IDS Search available to all member libraries by January 2010.

Bridging The ALM Divide: An Integrated Archive-Library-Museum Approach for Hy...

The Magnes

For many years, institutions housing archive, library, and museum (ALM) collections have catalogued their holdings either into specialized software for each area types, or have forced their collection records into systems which do not take into account the cataloging standards of the field those materials represent. New technology now allows us to rethink the way ALM assets can be catalogued, not only according to professional standards, but in a collaborative environment. Bridging the ALM Divide demonstrates how cataloguing into a collaborative environment enhances research, protects collections, increases access and interpretation and secures professional standards. This presentation was prepared by Francesco Spagnolo, PhD, Director of Research and Collections, and Perian Sully, Collection Information Manager at The Magnes.
