- The impact of new student housing on library usage: A case study
"A quantitative analysis of campus housing figures and library usage statistics suggests a stronger correlation than library usage compared to other enrollment figures. New residents on a university campus were surveyed on their frequency and reasons for utilizing the library's physical and online resources, before and after moving in."

- Library Blogs: What's Most Important for Success Within the Enterprise?
"Library blogs, such as the one I supervise as associate director for public services at UCLA’s Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library, exchange information and ideas on everything from the everyday, such as library services, to the profound, such as values held by librarians (high-quality reliable resources, academic freedom, open access, and so on). If you’ve got your library blog up and running, however, don’t count on it being a booming business, providing plenty of “connectedness” to the enterprise or new business. Recent figures from a 2008 national survey of 22 academic health sciences (medical) libraries with blogs indicate as much. According to medical librarians who maintain library blogs, a typical month includes two to four contributors writing and posting about two to four posts—but barely any feedback.
So should library management support blogs in the enterprise? The answer is yes."

"L'idéologie de la « société de l'information » repose notamment sur un récit économique. Ce récit met l'accent sur une « nouvelle économie », caractérisée par la « dématérialisation », dont deux conséquences seraient le « piratage » des oeuvres et le développement de « médias Web 2.0 » fondés sur la gestion directe de l'information par le public. Dans ce texte, nous allons réfuter quatre « découvertes » de l'idéologie économique de la société de l'information à la fois sur le plan théorique et par l'étude d'un cas d'entreprise de l'Internet, la société Cityvox. Les changements réels qui affectent l'économie des biens informationnels en relation avec le développement des technologies numériques doivent plutôt être décrits comme la manifestation contemporaine de fondamentaux de l'économie capitaliste, industrielle et marchande concernant la formation et la circulation de la valeur et la concurrence entre les firmes."

- LJ Webcast on the ILS
"When it comes to selecting an Integrated Library System (ILS), there are many factors to be considered with respect to both commercial and open source solutions. Customer support, third party integration, consortia concerns, underlying platform, and institutional stability are key parts of the equation. More than ever, libraries must consider the source of the software applications that keep all library resources accessible, manageable, and affordable, with the ILS at the center of its operations."
