El futuro de las bibliotecas
En It’s all good, hacen un interesante resumen del futuro de las bibliotecas:
The library space – sea change a comin’:
* “Acquire-Catalog-Circulate” fades into new “Integrate-Manage-Analyze” model [thanks to Robin Murray of OCLC PICA for this excellent conceptual frame – see Alane’s post and hear Robin’s remarks in a podcast for a fuller picture]
* Surfacing seamlessly – library content and services will/must show up in non-library spaces (e.g., the web, office applications, learning management systems) to satisfy point-of-need demands of users
* New models (e.g., FRBR) to build on, new user experiences to develop and deliver – lighter, easier, more relevant modes of delivering D2D (discovery to delivery) will appear
* Non-library spaces will inform library spaces and vice-versa far more in the future than they did in the past: As illustration, witness the degree to which bookseller, publisher, library catalogs are starting to show feature & content convergence (e.g., enriched content (dust covers, TOCs) is increasingly a common feature, commonly expressed in form and content)
Se deja atrás el clásico modelo Adquisición-catalogación-circulación pasando a Integrar-gestionar-analizar, más propio de entornos virtuales.
Cada vez más servicios bibliotecarios se ofrecerán via internet, para satisfacer las demandas de los usuarios.
Una muestra de ello, es la biblioteca pública de Denver que será la primera de los Estados Unidos en ofrecer descargas de películas y conciertos musicales.
Y solo será necesario disponer de tarjeta de usuario de la biblioteca y conexión a internet.
