Title: Where would you study? Feeback via post-it notes

Authors: Macfarlane, Carrie M.; Brendan Owens

Abstract: No matter how small a library redesign project might be, obtaining student feedback is an important part of the planning process. Middlebury asked students to respond to a potential redesign via Post-It notes on a poster in the library. The responses received were plentiful, colorful, and fun. The presenters will share how they developed the poster, what comments were received, and how they followed up.

Outside-in : application interoperability using an OSID-based framework

Title: Outside-in : application interoperability using an OSID-based framework

Authors: Franco, Adam

Abstract: This paper describes an interoperability demonstration given at OpeniWorld-Europe 2008, Lyons, France. Segue and Concerto are two curricular applications built upon Harmoni, an Open Service Interface Definition-based (OSID) service-oriented application framework. This demonstration will show how website content created in Segue is stored as OSID Assets in Harmoni’s OSID Repository. Similarly, the demonstration will show how multimedia assets created in Concerto can be stored in the same repository. Interoperability will be demonstrated as each application is used to view and make real-time modifications to the OSID Assets created using the other application, while at the same time respecting the authorizations given to those assets. Additionally, an OSID Repository to OAI-PMH gateway will be shown providing the LibraryFind meta-search tool with access to the metadata for content created in Segue, Concerto, and a lightweight, read-only OSID Repository.
