OCLC at LIANZA: Libraries working at Webscale
7:00 am - 8:45 pm, Tuesday 22 October 2013
Location: Brooklyn One Meeting Room, Claudelands Events Centre
Cost: FREE. This is a breakfast meeting with food and beverages supplied.
OCLC has recently introduced WorldShare Management Services into the Australia / New Zealand region. Come and hear how Australian libraries have been able to utilise a cooperative strategy, technology platform and management services that enable shared efficiencies and innovation. During the presentation OCLC staff will talk about the experiences of delivering WorldShare into the region and will give a live presentation of WorldShare and WorldCat Local. Staff will also give an update on other OCLC initiatives and future developments.
This event is followed by a LIANZA keynote address by Lorcan Dempsey who oversees OCLC Research and participates in strategic planning at OCLC. Lorcans presentation 'The network reshapes the library' will consider how libraries and groups of libraries will change over the coming years. A focus will be on the shift from infrastructure to engagement, and on the types of innovation required to support this shift.
