SUMMARY:Free UKSG webinar - Doing Away with the Library Catalogue
DESCRIPTION:  In 2012 we made some bold and unconventional decisions at Utrecht University Library in The Netherlands: shut down the custom-made discovery system Omega\, not to implement another library discovery service and focus predominantly on delivery.    Fresh from her well-received and thought-provoking talk at the UKSG 2014 Conference in Harrogate\, Simone Kortekaas reprises her conference presentation with the advantage of an interactive Q&A session.   More information and registration.
