I know that David Lee King at Topeka/Shawnee had been playing with beacons,
as well as John Blyberg at Darien. The LibraryBox Project is also looking
at doing some work on BTLE open beacon tech for ambient findability with
app-enabled smart-things over the summer...

Thanks so far everyone for the answers that are coming in!
Right now this is for my own curiosity rather than for research / paper
type thing. I'm just trying to gauge whose doing what/when/how and if there
are websites or short docs with the info, please feel free to send them

It is always good sport trying to second guess what Google will do with
data…… ;-)
‘Localness’ is not always a matter of geographical nearness. IP address
ranges for example are rumoured to have some influence in this area.
However it is as much about the relationship between well described

Hi Lisa,
There are a few public libraries here in Southern Ontario who are using
sensors to monitor patron movement in their libraries; the intent is to
understand how patrons are using the library space, whether in-place
way-finders are effective, etc.
If you want further info, I can put you in

Well, the aforementioned Jason Griffey's Measure the Future project could
certainly be read as IoT (http://measurethefuture.net/, and I am one of the
developers on this project). It's not yet in libraries in the sense that
we're working on our alpha test right now, but it should be more widely

A month or so ago, I asked on ALA Thing Tank if anyone was using IoT in
their libraries, and if so: what, how, when, where; details man, details!
Other than someone asking me what the IoT is (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_Things), I got crickets.

If you use any Springshare products, I've created a Slack channel for real time
communication to problem solve or have discussions about the various products.
This is complementary to the Springshare Lounge.

Hopefully Google will have a means to let libraries/patrons select/deselect
areas where they will advertise their resources. We're a private institution in
Alexandria VA. Our resources are pertinent to other people on our single IP

Hi Karen,
I took a look at those bryn mawr hits and I don't see the schema.org
used in the page. Am I missing it? Perhaps I found the wrong thing.
If indeed it's not there, it just goes to show how using schema is not a
panacea. Loads of factors go into search ranking, relevancy, and
Hi Cindy,
Deduping can happen in any number of ways, but making use of shared
identifiers is the preferred way to address this issue. You could adopt
a shared identifier or you can an indicate that your Thing is the same
as a this other Thing. In schema.org's vocabulary, you'd use
It's probably not safe to say that "all search is local" but there is
most certainly a strong local component considered for every search.
For me, every hit on the first page of Google's results for a search for
"ice cream parlor" is related to Chicago, which is where I executed the
search. A
Hello All,
As some of you know I am putting together a book on the way libraries
acquire technology and I was hoping to get a feel for something here. How
many of you have systems you have built and maintain yourselves in
production vs something you bought? It doesn't have to be big but I would
An off-the-cuff response: I've heard it suggested in talks about Bibframe
that just as Google tailors your results based on location (i.e. if I put
in "pizza," I'll get pizza places in South Bend, as well as pizza recipes
and whatnot), they'd tailor your library results based on location. So if I
Forgive me if I'm confusing schema.org and Bibframe, but I wonder how Google is
going to dedupe all the sources of a given document/material when many
libraries have their holdings in bibframe? These sample searches made me
wonder about that again. has this been discussed?
