Save the dates for two
new Collective Insight events
With 2014 well underway, we are excited to announce two upcoming events in the Collective Insight series! We will continue to focus on topics surrounding Big Data this year, with offerings covering a variety of perspectives on this theme.

*************************************

Getting the Right Fit:
Tailoring Assessment Strategies for Your Library
Tuesday, April 22, 9:00 am – 12:00 pm (US Eastern Time), in-person at Brandeis University (Waltham, Massachusetts) and via live-streaming video

Librarians find themselves in an ever-shifting landscape where tight budgets, increased electronic material purchasing, and ever expanding user expectations influence the use and the perceived value of the library. Central to a library’s success will be the ability to present compelling evidence, backed by data to demonstrate the library’s contribution to their institution’s mission and goals. A key component to determining and expressing the value of the library is increasingly being drawn from a successful assessment program. This event—co-hosted by the Boston Library Consortium and OCLC—will help to define the practice of assessment, explore what drives a successful assessment program, and identify practical tools and techniques that may be tailored to use in reaching the specific assessment goals of your library.

Tracing the Evolution of Linked Data
Monday, May 12, webinar

Five years ago linked data was introduced to the library community as a powerful technology with great promise for libraries, visionary but abstract. In the years since, what was a buzzword has become a fixture in our lexicon. Yet as our understanding of the technology has progressed and solidified, we still struggle to identify the specific benefits of linked data within our individual institutions. Join OCLC’s Ted Fons, Corey Harper of New York University and Phil Schreur of Stanford University as they trace the evolution of linked data technology over the years, and demonstrate practical applications of the latest linked data technologies being utilized in libraries today.

*************************************

More details are coming soon for these events, but put them on your calendar today! We look forward to sharing another great year of thought-provoking discussion around topics that matter to you and your library—and to seeing soon at an upcoming event!
