About

Discovery of resources for research and teaching is an area of almost continual upheaval and presents many challenges for libraries, museums, archives and other cultural and educational institutions.

Discovery 2013 saw delegates from the UK and across the world come together to discuss ways of collaborating to address the common technical, political and social challenges that are preventing us realising our grand visions for better resource discovery.

Read our background to the event and session synopses from the parallel sessions.
