The prospect of a new automation system can be daunting. When do the benefits of moving to something new surpass the deficits of keeping the status quo? Can the products on the market deliver what libraries need to survive and prosper? Are those based on open source more flexible than proprietary systems? What about those deployed in the cloud? These and dozens more questions arise when libraries enter a selection process. Knowing the options is key to arriving at the best answers for your own organization. Marshall Breeding, who has followed the ins and outs of library technology for more than 30 years, gathers together a roster of fellow experts in the field to offer new practioners, library decision makers, and budgeting staff a comprehensive survey of what’s out there. Providing substance beyond the buzzwords and hype, this guide quickly brings readers up to speed while providing practical advice on such topics asRFPs: what they are, how to write them and tips for getting bids;standards, interoperability, and trends in resource sharing;distinguishing between infrastructure-as-service, software-as-service, and platform-as-service when it comes to cloud computing;what you need to know to start planning for cloud computing;how library service platforms differ from the traditional ILS; andfactors to consider when comparing e-book platforms. Armed with this book’s clear-sighted perspective, libraries will be empowered to make informed and responsible decisions concerning their technology infrastructure.

This issue of Library Technology Reports (vol. 55, no. 7), Protecting Privacy on Library Websites: Critical Technologies and Implementation Trends, explores the issues and technologies needed to deploy a library website with adequate protections for the privacy of those who visit. Without the implementation of standard encryption components, the online information-seeking activities of website visitors are vulnerable to exposure. Even when a site is properly encrypted, privacy can be circumvented through tracking agents placed on the site for analytics or advertising. Following discussion of the technical issues with implications for user privacy, this report includes the results of a broad study of the state of practice for these privacy-related technologies among public and academic libraries in the United States. This study reveals great progress among these libraries in the strengthening of privacy on their websites, though substantial gaps remain.

Supplementing your local collection through resource sharing is a smart way to ensure your library has the resources to satisfy the needs of your users. Marshall Breeding’s new Library Technology Report explores technologies and strategies for sharing resources, helping you streamline workflows and improve resource-sharing services. Covering key strategies like interlibrary loan, consortial borrowing, document delivery, and shared collections, you’ll also learn about such trends and services as: OCLC WorldCat Resource Sharing, and other systems that facilitate cooperative, reciprocal lendingSystem-to-system communications that allow integrated systems to interact with resource-sharing environmentsTechnical components that reliably automate patron requests, routing to suppliers with tools for tracking, reporting, and staff intervention as neededSpecialised applications that simplify document delivery, such as Ariel, Odyssey, or OCLC s Article ExchangeHow the NISO Circulation Interchange Protocol (NCIP) can enable borrowing among consortial libraries using separate integrated library systemsThe Orbis Cascade Alliance consortium, examined using a case study

Libraries are increasingly demanding the ability to exploit their library systems (LIS) using application programming interfaces (APIs), Web services, or other technologies. This issue of Library Technology Reports explores how vendors of open source library technology are approaching this desire for customization plus an in-depth exploration of trends towards APIs, Web services, and the service-oriented architecture.Topics Covered in this Issue Include: Why Should Libraries Care about Application Programming Interfaces? APIs: Basic Concepts Vendors and Products: Case Studies and Customer Responses API Hype and Reality Conclusions and resources

For the last four years, Breeding has conducted an online survey to measure satisfaction with multiple aspects of the automation products used by libraries. In this issue of Library Technology Reports Breeding and Yelton take a deeper look at the survey data, including an expansion of findings based on the 2010 iteration, an examination of trends seen across the four years, and additional analysis not previously published. The survey data have been extended with additional fields that provide the opportunity to separate the findings into categories that show some interesting trends not otherwise apparent. Brief interpretive narratives help place the data in context.In this Report, the authors Explain the basis and origins of the survey and what it attempts to measure Examine the qualitative data to find themes and trends Break down the data quantitatively by library size, library type, and more Provide profiles of different vendors and how they are reflected in the survey data
