Zepheira’s Perspectives on Leadership and Practice
Libraries, Web, Data & Technology

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

Shared observations from community of practice 1. 2. 3. 4.

The Web of Data is here With “Linked Data” Linking first, Data second A Library is more than its collection Libraries can participate more fully on the Web

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

The traditional Web focuses on Harvesting and Links to Pages

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

The emerging Web of Data focuses on Data, Resources, Vocabulary, and Connections

New Vocabularies and Characteristics

Retail – items, reviews, geo, descriptions, inventory, hours, social, events

New Vocabularies and Characteristics

Movies – Geo, reviews, ratings, images, previews, times, tickets

New Vocabularies and Characteristics Restaurants – locations, reviews, hours, reservations, menus

How does the Web see Libraries?

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

Initially Libraries = Community Businesses Location, photos, hours, reviews, social, events

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

The Web values personalization and geography

Title: The geographic distribution of United States public libraries : An analysis of locations and service areas Author: Francis P. Donnelly Journal: Journal of Librarianship and Information Science (JOLIS) Year: 2014, Volume 46, Issue 2, Pages 110-129 ISSN: 0961-0006 DOI: 10.1177/0961000612470276 Publisher: Sage

How much of the library is visible?

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

Many libraries have a wealth of content and resources locked behind legacy, closed technology systems and niche vocabularies We aren’t yet speaking in a way the Web understands

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

Started in 2014 as a unifying initiative focused on shared purpose “Everyone benefits from the visibility of libraries and their content on the Web.”

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira

• Act 1 - Early collaborators, transparent discussions, experiments, and practitioners shaped focus “Libraries need to find new ways of reaching out and demonstrating that they truly are where their people need them, which includes Google and other search engines.” Michelle Jeske, Director of Collections, Technology and Innovation at Denver Public Library

“It’s time to reveal to the Web what we at Atlas Systems and our customers have known all along; libraries are rich, living knowledge environments,” Jason Glover, president, Atlas Systems, a founding Libhub sponsor

@LibraryJournal #LJAtlasZepheira
