Modelling the Library Domain: Consultative Workshop

When 19 June 2009 10.00am-4.30pm
Where Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Savoy Place, London

The challenge of making library resources visible and accessible in the Web 2.0 environment was a major focus of last year’s JISC/SCONUL study of Library Management Systems.

The JISC TILE (Towards Implementation of Library 2.0 and the e-Framework) project was subsequently commissioned to draft a high level library domain model which could be used to further thinking about the functions and processes that library systems need to support in future.

This workshop seeks to consult on the domain model proposed, and how it might be used in the future.

Who should attend?

This workshop is intended for a mix of senior and middle library managers in a range of roles, both those with IT/systems management responsibilities and those with other library remits.

Programme

The programme consists of a mixture of presentations and group discussions.
