Enjoyed the annual meeting with presentations by Stephen Elfstrad, PALS Director, Adam Marsnik (Normandale Community College) of their SUMMON instance, and Todd White (College of St. Scholastica) and their use of the EBSCO search product. We also heard from Todd Digby (System Director of Libraries for MnSCU) and Bill DeJohn (Minitex).
The afternoon was spent in small and large group discussion on a variety of topics affecting the consortium. Topics included The Future of Discovery, Open Source vs. Vended Solutions, The Future of the ILS, Future Funding, Minimum Set of Library Technology Services (this is the group I was on), and Open Access Data and Digital Repositories. The ideas generated will be brought back to the PALS office as they continue their planning efforts.
