Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:25:33 @tac_niso i don't think a single library can be. it's all libs together that make web-scale. Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:25:32 paul weiss: "we need more #rda training material geared toward catalogers with no #aacr2 background." Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:24:19 realistically, the value of saas workflows - better data sharing, lower costs, easier implementation... let's focus people #rmg21 Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:24:05 now can't get phil collin's "sussudio" out of my head... #ssedu Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:23:49 find it odd that i'm in a brand new room at the #westin gaslamp at and there r no drawers. shouldn't i get a discount?

Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:20:14 @tac_niso #rmg21 agreed. but at web-scale, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:19:14 @tac_niso #rmg21 one obvious advantage is one piece of sw built once, enhanced continually in one place for everyone Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:19:03 yes @janieh: the #alaremix unconference was great way to get fresh ideas right out of the gate at Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:18:42 i uploaded a youtube video -- on the way to #alamw11 http://youtu.be/r_g4-3isp60?a Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:18:40 now i'm vaguely imagining a friends of the fdlp. #advocacy Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:18:37 @carl_grant there is a tremendous amount of duplication among data created & managed by libraries #rmg21 Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:18:37 have fun at . hope you all get some awesome schwag! i will spend my weekend baking cookies and perhaps an apple pie. yum. :) Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:17:54 clearly, traditional ils vendors are not ready to be disrupted. Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:17:37 @andrewkpace my point is that generally the individual library needn't "scale" quickly #rmg21 Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:17:05 about to go to an alcts ccs session Fri, 07 Jan 2011 23:16:44 lol @misskubelik: spoiler ale!! we get totebags!!!
