I tried it a second time removing the author and page numbers and it did not alter the results.
-What are the implications of having many different sources for citation metadata/OpenURLs? -
SFX has proven to be a great tool for libraries. To be able to link from citation databases directly to the full text of the article is great for students, faculty, and librarians. It is a great step forward for libraries. The problems I find that the information is not always correct and that needs to be worked on.
Article:
Poulton, D. "Graces of play in renaissance lute music." Early Music 3.2 (1975):107.

Thing # 9: Wikis, Wikis, Wikis
In the library we have implemented a wiki for SFX/Verde. Team members are allowed to update the wiki as needed. It is a great source of information on SFX/Verde and for me a frequently used resource. I have also updated the wiki as needed. Speaking from my experience with the SFX/Verde wiki it has proved to be a useful tool and a great way of disseminating information. I have found the impact of wikis to be a positive one. It is great to have the information online rather than having to dig through a manual for needed information.

Thing #7 - Social Bookmarking - Delicious
Social bookmarking can be a useful tool for the library. It is a great way of sharing bookmarks. However I can see this as becoming more confusing as you add more tags to bookmarks. It can be useful but maybe a standardization of tags would be helpful.

Thing #6


I have been using Firefox for some time now. Add-ons are seamlessly incorporated into the brower. I have the Google toolbar installed and also have other add-ons, for exmaple Kwout. You can use Kwout to capture a screenshot, highlight areas of interest in the screenshot, and post or save them.

Thing #4 (out of order) - Flicker
Sorry for this being out of order... Flicker is a great tool for saving photos and more... The Library of Congress Flicker site is a great example of how the site can be used. It is a great way of conveying library information.
