I would also hope that a subsequent discussion can address how you (the attendees) could envision Mendeley’s future in the library tech community.
== ArticlesPlus: Summon API Client Implementation and Integration with Drupal 6 ==
 
* Albert Bertram, University of Michigan (bertrama@umich.edu)
 
On September 27, 2010, the University of Michigan launched ArticlesPlus, an application for web-scale article discovery using the Serials Solutions' Summon service as its search engine. Rather than providing a search box which sent our patrons to the interface provided by Serials Solutions, we used Summon's API to integrate the search as a feature of our library's website. In addition to Summon as the search engine, we used our Drupal instance for the interface engine.
 
I propose to talk about how we implemented the Summon API, the Drupal module we developed in to access the Summon API, problems with implementing an interface ourselves, benefits of implementing the interface ourselves, and plans for future expansion or improved integration in our website.
