2. We Work Hard to Find the right resources In the right subject areas
And the right formats
At the right time
But that’s not enough!

4. In the Old Library World
We grouped books by subject.
We put them on shelves.
We made a record for you to find.
The record led you to the book on the shelf.

5. Today We Build Pathways

6. We Need Pathways Because
People approach information differently
Information is sometimes buried under other information
Organization of knowledge provides shared mechanics of access
And because there are so many ways!

7. In the New Library World
We give you:
Pathways between Databases - Linked Content
Pathways Across Databases - Cross Database Searching
Pathways Through Subjects - Research Guides
(Some things don’t change that much!)
