Reading Notes Week 11
David Hawking , Web Search Engines
Shreeves, S. L., Habing, T. O., Hagedorn, K., & Young, J. A.
Michael K. Bergman, The Deep Web: Surfacing Hidden Value
My internship over the summer at a government agency was my first exposure to OAI – Metadata Harvesting. Although I used the harvester I didn’t truly understand what was technically occurring. Because of these readings it finally made sense, I now think of OAI for what it is; a protocol that submits request to a repository.

Week 10 - Reading Notes
Mischo, W. (July/August 2005). Digital Libraries: challenges and influential work.
This article made me wonder if library science students are prepared to handle the back end of current and emerging technologies, compared to “information technology” or a “telecommunications” students. Althrough I can use the interace, I’m not sure if I could troubleshoot a “bug” in the system. I guess that is what IT departments are for.
Paepcke, A. et al. (July/August 2005). Dewey meets Turing: librarians, computer scientists and the digital libraries initiative.
Lynch, Clifford A. "Institutional Repositories: Essential Infrastructure for Scholarship in the Digital Age"
As libraries and technology continue to transform I wonder what new possibilities they hold for the actual concept of a book. Will future generations known what the physical container of a book looks like or will it fade away similar to the card catalog. It is not necessarily a bad thing, just interesting.
