  2. Deploying Virtual Libraries • Increasingly means ‘mega’ libraries • Users want/need broader access • Infrastructure too costly to duplicate • Local level service remains critical • Local library knows the user • Large investment in legacy systems • Standards required that allow • Creation of mega services and collections • Support local services

  3. Standards repertoire today • Z39.50 • Search and retrieval of multiple resources • Cross database searching remains a challenge • Even within a common domain like catalogs • Little adoption by library-oriented IP’s • Result many libraries default to the browser as the integration tool

  4. Standards repertoire today • ISO ILL 10160/61 • Taking off after a long taxi • Useful for resource sharing • Difficult to link with user self service applications

  5. Standards repertoire today • NISO NCIP standard • Still in development • XML based • Assumes query services available in Z39.50 • Linking self service applications to ILL a question

  6. What’s missing • Directory services for agencies • What else? • Where do they belong?

  7. Coordination • What level of coordination is desirable • What is possible?
