Three Founding Assertions:Three Founding Assertions:
1. Indiana University Librarians have an extraordinary opportunity to lead in the next generation of university information services.
2. There is widespread expectation that you will fail to do so in a timely manner.
3. Any perceived “failure to lead” will not be attributable to a lack of money, resources, passion, time, hard work, or good intent.

Winning the Right GameWinning the Right Game
Rather… If libraries miss the opportunity it will be the result of passionate work
aimed at
winning the wrong game.

Forces Shaping the Next Forces Shaping the Next GenerationGeneration1. Course Management Systems go
Enterprise
2. Portals become the norm
3. University services (library, registrar, etc.) become unbundled via Web Services
We will overview each in turn…

1. Course Management 1. Course Management Systems TrendsSystems Trends1. CMS becomes part of the 24x7
mission-critical enterprise system
2. Vendor Consolidation and shakeout mean that universities must establish a clear CMS strategy
3. Publishers (textbooks, lab manuals, etc.) are developing materials to plug into leading CMS
![Page 6: Instructional Technologies and the Digital Library: Winning the Right Game at Indiana University Bradley C. Wheeler Assoc. Dean of Teaching & Learning](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022072015/56649ebe5503460f94bc7b3b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
1. Course Management 1. Course Management Systems TrendsSystems Trends4. CMS content is becoming wider
and deeper more professors, students larger files, more content – need for
Library skills
5. Distributed education via CMS continue to challenge our notions of “fair use,” “member of the community,” etc.
These frame the future CMS challenge as one similarto that faced by libraries. Should universities invest in continued efforts to improve the CMS, i.e., optimize the CMS silo, or will the CMS become unbundled too?

1. A functional orientation to services and inflexible IT led to creating service silos on campus.
2. The dawn of the WWW allowed service units to improve their offerings via creating a browser-based interface to their services.
3. Persistent authentication, navigation, and some integration have been achieved via e-facades or “integrated front-ends” to backend systems.3. e-Facades
“Insite”

2. University Portals2. University Portals
Persistent authentication, single sign-on
Personalization via choice, roles, membership
A place for my data (e.g., integrated calendar) rather than a path to data
Delegation (think Tivo™)
Early portal experiences of my.yahoo.com or www.yodlee.com set rising user expectations
If portals are to be more than a facade or links, thendynamic integration of unbundled, personalized university services are the essential next evolution.

An Example ProblemAn Example Problem
What is the shortest path for a professor to place a link to an EBSCO pdf journal article into a Course Management System?Hint: e-reserve systems miss the point
A recent history from Sloan Management Review and my S544 MBA course
Optimized silos and personalized portals don’t address the real integration challenge across university services.Value is created as systems become more porous andaccessible to other university systems/users – “unbundling.”

Post-PC Future of Mobile Post-PC Future of Mobile ComputingComputing
Portal
Services connect to the Portal and the Portal connectsto the evolving plethora of wireless, mobile computing devices headed to campus. Connecting each service is infeasible.

Action: Invest to Win the Action: Invest to Win the Right GameRight Game Make library systems porous
collections of unbundled services – require this of your vendors and custom systems
Accelerate the connection of these services to portals and other electronic front doors – other than the Library’s
Pump/push time- and user-specific data into personalized calendars
….. Lead!
