* New bibliographic environment. This breakout session will provide opportunities for participants us to explore new and emerging models for bibliographic data, such as FRBR, the DCMI Abstract Model, and BIBFRAME with the context of the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Linked Data. Because this This breakout will take the approach of self-directed learning in a collaborative environment, participants (i.e. there will be given time in this session to no expert talking heads). In the first hour, we will individually review some [http://ow.ly/rb9jo suggested background material]. As we work through the material, we will record topics of interest and questions [http://ow.ly/rb9ql here]. Feel free to add other suggestions anytimesuggested resources and related topics/questions at any time. In the second hour, based on things learned and topics/questions generated in Hour 1, we will assemble into groups of 2 or 3 and develop a 10-minute 'overview' of one topic/question to explore further. We can sign up for them once we collectively finalize the topics. In the last hour, we will present our overviews to the larger group.

* What do we really know about library use and what can we do with this information? The general idea of this breakout session is to connect those who made decisions about public services (and want to make more informed public service decisions) and those who have access to data on how library resources of all types are being used. The expected outcome would be to work towards identifying the types of activities that reflect how libraries are used today, with a focus on the impact of new, emerging, and future library services.
