SUMMARY:Free UKSG webinar - A new perspective on library resource management systems
DESCRIPTION:  You are invited to join Ken Chad\, Ken Chad Consulting Ltd. for a free UKSG webinar: “A new perspective on library resource management systems”   Ken Chad analyses the current landscape and looks at the strategic issues around the changing nature of library collections\, shared services\, workflows\, analytics and the cloud. He predicts that LSPs will move to encompass additional resource silos.
