8. Primary focus now and in 3 Years time

9. Top 4 challenges users are facing  Desire for remote, instant access  Too much content, need help to find relevant content  Understanding the quality of information through search engines such as Google  Keeping up to date on topics which are of interest to them

10. What conclusions can we draw from this?  Adding value to Users and Research increases in importance for the future  Discovering relevant content is key to the user experience  Demands continue to grow for  Instant access  Multi device  Any time any place  Improving workflow  Results the Library can help deliver become significantly more important in the future than in the past

11. 3 ideas and possible solutions  Workflow and Social Media tools your users already use and how you can add value to them  Role document delivery can play  How tools like text mining and semantic fingerprinting can improve results

12. Adding value to research

13. How are your researchers working today?  Most are working through a collaboration, social media platform  They are storing, sharing and annotating key documents  What they are doing is often invisible to you with only a limited view of how content is being used  Yet you are securing the content, the funding and the licence for their work  How can you step in, add value and show the true value of what you are contributing too?

19. What we’ve heard from our Academic Customers: To avoid: What is happening in the world is bypassing university libraries acc. to Peter Murray-Rust (Chemistry Professor at Cambridge) Introducing MIE Research is done for over 50% in social networks outside the library.* The library’s contribution to students and researchers will be questioned Libraries have to prove their value to the management of the university. Some librarians try to understand how to support research better in their work. Librarians are searching for the right ways and tools to do so, without sacrificing their other responsiblities. The libraries will have to prove how they support research output. * McKinsey* McKinsey report November 2011

20. Mendeley & MIE MIE is a module developed on top of Mendeley’s existing end-user model to enable the Library to add value to the process and workflow of research in their institution

43. New Technologies

44. How can we use emerging technologies?  Word clouds  Click on title  Compare word cloud to other titles  Discover other relevant content  Suggest to the use  See if you already subscribe  Text mining  Build lexicons on key terms and synonyms  Recognise those in other content  Directs the user to other relevant sources  Semantic fingerprinting – profile your use  Uses technology to identify word patterns and key words  Builds an interest profile of your user  Enables you to deliver relevant content to users without the need to request it
