Given the increasing Googlization of electronic resources in libraries,
should the catalog, serial lists, and database lists be accessed through
a single interface? If so, how will our users understand what they are
getting? If not, what are the risks to users and librarians of
maintaining separate systems for searching? We will hear a panel of
experts discuss emerging models of catalog use, the consequences of
maintaining separate systems, and how libraries are addressing the
changing needs and expectations of users.
