Collective Insight: Driven by Shared Data (VLA/VLACRL Annual Conference 2013)
Organizations have begun utilizing data in new and exciting ways. Phrases like “linked data,” “big data” and “data visualization” have permeated discussions, signaling a broader trend toward data-driven insight and integration of libraries into the wider Web. Data is an essential driver of success. What do we know about our collections and resources, who uses them, and how? How do we share and use data within the library community and information industry to gain greater insight? How do we utilize this data to reach out to our users on the Web? Join OCLC Member Services Consultant, Meryl Cinnamon, and your colleagues for an interactive discussion about this important topic.
