Current Situation: General
Library Automation
Can be accessible 24/7/365
Resources
Some digital
Some link to abstracts, full text
Books – link to cover, TOC, e-books, etc.
Journals – from printed to electronic online
Electronic Databases – abstracts and full text
Resources Integration and Linking Services are in
need for users
Current Situation: Hybrid Library
• Not just a traditional library
(printed materials only)
• Not just an electronic library
(digital materials only)
• But..
somewhere between the two
Current Situation: From the User’s Point of View
 Where do I look for information?
 How do I make a query?
 How do I get accurate results?
 How do I compare lists of results?
 How do I navigate to related
resources?
 How do I obtain the actual
materials?
Current Situation: User’s Expectations
 Seamless, integrated, transparent network
that allows searches to link quickly and
painlessly to any document they seek
Linking Technology
 Links to relevant sources and services, such
as OPACs, Union Catalogs, Electronic
Resources and Document Delivery Services,
where users can obtain a copy of the
document
Linking Services
Current Situation of Library Services
 Thailand Union Catalog - A union database
that combines records of information from
geographically distributed academic libraries into a
single unified database - one-stop searching
 Search books, journals or articles and find out from
which library (Location) it is available.
(Inter-Library Loan)
 Books – link to full text searchable E-Books online,
directories, search engines and online bookstores.
 Journals – link to Medical Resources Online
(Ovid Medline / PubMed, etc.)
 Articles – link to CrossRef using DOI (Digital Object
Identifier) and get full text of the article.
New Trends of Library Services
Thailand Union Catalog with Linking Services
 Thailand Union Catalog - A union database
that combines records of information from
geographically distributed academic libraries into a
single unified database - one-stop searching
 Search books, journals or articles and find out from
which library (Location) it is available.
(Inter-Library Loan)
 Books – link to full text searchable E-Books online,
directories, search engines and online bookstores.
 Journals – link to Medical Resources Online
(OvidSP Medline / PubMed / PubList, Ideal Library,
etc.)
 Articles – link to CrossRef using DOI (Digital Object
Identifier) and get full text of the article.
The INTERFACE is the
NEW King!
Soon, you will see huge competition among publishers, ILS
vendors and the web browsers (Google, Yahoo, Microsoft) to
see whose interface becomes the ‘de facto’ interface on the
university campus
We will still have to pay for the content, but prices will depend
on HOW the materials are being accessed
Will your library accept ADVERTISEMENTS, if it means you
therefore pay less for the content?
OPACS
Search Engines
Cross-file Searching
Data Security
The GOALS of the DIGITAL Library:
• Provide ANSWER, not data
• Provide a minimum of information with the highest
quality
• Provide the information in the format most pertinent to
the task at hand
• Provide information that is readily updated
• Enhance the communication of the scholarly and other
information
Information Resources For Medical
Library in 2000’s
Two types of Information Sources
Huge numbers of :
Printed (monographs & serials)
Electronic (CD-ROMs, intranet, internet, & etc.)
Types of Electronic Information
Fast growing numbers of digital contents:
E-books
E-journals, E-TOC
Online databases, WEB Resources
E-news, Medical RSS, Blogs, PodCast, Alerts,
E-learning materials & courses
Local databases, Institutional Repository, Medical Portals, and many more
Print & Online materials
will both be heavily
used
The library must do two things:
Train users how to locate the
information (online first, print
second)
Deliver the print quickly when
requested
