Among those issues to be explored are the formats library patrons, from adults to children, prefer when borrowing and reading books; how often patrons visit the physical and online versions of their local public library; and the differences in patron attitudes and behaviors depending on age, gender, geography and other demographic factors.

Developments in library metadata frameworks such as BibFrame and RDA built on standard data models and ontologies including RDF, SKOS and OWL highlight the importance of linking data in an increasingly global environment. What is the status of linked data projects in libraries and other memory institutions internationally? Come hear our speakers address current projects, opportunities and challenges.
