The library catalogue as social space : promoting patron driven collections, online communities, and enhanced reference and readers' services / Laurel Tarulli. by Tarulli, Laurel. Libraries Unlimited, c2012.

Description:  xix, 122 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Contents:  The library catalogue as a social space -- Exploring next generation catalogues -- Controversies and concerns surrounding next generation catalogues -- Readers' services and the catalogue -- The impact of social catalogues on traditional library services -- Social features without social catalogues: enhancing your public library catalogue is possible even with limitations and resistance -- Future directions of the library catalogue. Summary:  "Professionals and library organizations such as Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) suggest that the most important factor for end-users seeking information is receiving that data conveniently--how they want it, when they want it. But when it comes to reading materials, users also want discovery-related information beyond the standard summaries, excerpts, and tables of contents. Can library catalogues meet these heightened demands? Author and collection access librarian Laurel Tarulli examines next-generation or 'social' catalogues, discussing the theories and concepts behind them, their impact on core library services, and their potential in shaping future libraries and library services. Geared equally toward frontline and backroom staff, this book helps readers understand next-generation catalogues and see the collaborative opportunities that are possible between the frontline and backroom."--Back cover.
