OCLC releases new CONTENTdm version<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1868437&l=30085&ctl=2BFF1EA:C073EF2ACA43AF3450B3C103E159B6F3B99A427DD10DD538&>

<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1868437&l=30085&ctl=2BFF1F8:C073EF2ACA43AF3450B3C103E159B6F3B99A427DD10DD538&>With the new release, the CONTENTdm Project Client now supports auto updates, enabling users to get updates as quickly as they are available. It automatically checks for software updates in the background, so work is not interrupted. If updates are available, they are downloaded but not installed until the organization is ready.

“Auto update is an easy and efficient way to keep all of our staff up-to-date with the most current Project Client release,” said Jennifer Ricker, Digital Collections Manager, State Library of North Carolina.

To better support text-based collections, PDF print quality can now be specified in the Project Client, enabling users to select a quality level when generating optional print versions of their compound objects. For users with large, full-text collections, several enhancements improve performance and reduce indexing times. Other enhancements include the addition of a new thesaurus, Canadian Subject Headings (CSH), and configuration options to filter hits in Usage Reports.

This new release is available to current CONTENTdm licensees at no additional charge.

10 crucial consumer trends for 2010, from mass mingling to maturialism<http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1868437&l=30085&ctl=2BFF1EB:C073EF2ACA43AF3450B3C103E159B6F3B99A427DD10DD538&>

 *   [http://www.oclc.org/emailcontent/articles/abstracts/images/tw-logo.gif] <http://visit.oclc.org/t?r=896&c=1868437&l=30085&ctl=2BFF1FC:C073EF2ACA43AF3450B3C103E159B6F3B99A427DD10DD538&> Business as unusual. Forget the recession: the societal changes that will dominate 2010 were set in motion way before we temporarily stared into the abyss.
 *   Urbany. Urban culture is the culture. Extreme urbanization, in 2010, 2011, 2012 and far beyond will lead to more sophisticated and demanding consumers around the world.
 *   Real-time reviews. Whatever it is you're selling or launching in 2010, it will be reviewed 'en masse,' live, 24/7.
 *   (F)Luxury. Closely tied to what constitutes status, which itself is becoming more fragmented, luxury will be whatever consumers want it to be over the next 12 months.
 *   Mass mingling. Online lifestyles are fueling 'real world' meet-ups like there's no tomorrow, shattering all predictions about a desk-bound, virtual, isolated future.
 *   Eco-easy. To really reach some meaningful sustainability goals in 2010, corporates and governments will have to forcefully make it 'easy' for consumers to be more green, by restricting the alternatives.
 *   Tracking & alerting. Tracking and alerting are the new search, and 2010 will see countless new INFOLUST services that will help consumers expand their web of control.
 *   Embedded generosity. Next year, generosity as a trend will adapt to the zeitgeist, leading to more pragmatic and collaborative donation services for consumers.
 *   Profile myning. With hundreds of millions of consumers now nurturing some sort of online profile, 2010 will be a good year to help them make the most of it (financially), from intention-based models to digital afterlife services.
 *   Maturialism. 2010 will be even more opinionated, risque, outspoken, if not 'raw' than 2009; you can thank the anything-goes online world for that. Will your brand be as daring?
