What if libraries banded together to create a new e-book and e-content solution that cost less, made more $ for rights holders and put libraries in control of their own infrastructure?

Learn how the Blue/Green Deployment methodology combined with AWS tools and services can help reduce the risks associated with software deployment. We will illustrate common patterns and highlight ways deployment risks are mitigated by each pattern. Topics will include how services like AWS CloudFormation, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Amazon EC2 Container Service, Amazon Route53, Auto Scaling and Elastic Load Balancing can help automate deployment. We will also address how to effectively manage deployments in the context of data model and schema changes. Learn how you can adopt blue/green for your software release processes in a cost-effective and low-risk way.

Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
UX, ethnography and possibilities: for Libraries, Museums and ArchivesNed Potter
These slides are adapted from a talk I gave at the Welsh Government's Marketing Awards for the LAM sector, in 2017.
It offers a primer on UX - User Experience - and how ethnography and design might be used in the library, archive and museum worlds to better understand our users. All good marketing starts with audience insight.
The presentation covers the following:
1) An introduction to UX
2) Ethnography, with definitions and examples of 7 ethnographic techniques
3) User-centred design and Design Thinking
4) Examples of UX-led changes made at institutions in the UK and Scandinavia
5) Next Steps - if you'd like to try out UX at your own organisation
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.

El suelo es un conjunto natural que sirve de soporte a la totalidad de los ecosistemas de los ambientes continentales terrestres. Su principal función dentro de los ecosistemas es la de proveer la totalidad del agua y nutrientes que necesitan todos los seres vivos del ecosistema a lo largo de su vida. Precisamente, a la capacidad que tiene un suelo para desempeñar este papel es lo que se conoce por calidad del suelo.
Una forma sencilla de definir al suelo es la de “resultado de la adaptación de las rocas al ambiente geoquímico de la superficie de la Tierra, muy diferente por lo general de aquel bajo el que se generó la roca en su interior. Dado que el ambiente geoquímico de la superficie terrestre está condicionado por el clima, es por lo que los suelos son muy diferentes según el tipoi de clima y por lo que estos se distribuyen a lo largo de la superficie terrestre según amplias zonas que se corresponden con las distintas zonas climáticas.
De todos los componentes de los suelos, la materia orgánica es el que más incide sobre su fertilidad natural y su sostenibilidad. Los cambios que esta experimenta en el suelo por la acción de los microorganismos, constituyen la base de la sostenibilidad de la misma a lo largo del tiempo.
A lo largo de los diferentes capítulos de este seminario, veremos como la principal diferencia entre la sostenibilidad de la fertilidad natural del suelo de los diferentes ecosistemas terrestres deriva de alteraciones provocadas por el hombre en la dinámica de la materia orgánica, siendo el ejemplo más palpable de la degradación de los suelos la transformación de los ecosistemas naturales en ecosistemas agrícolas.
