Report from the VALE Meeting

Marianne Gaunt, University Librarian at Rutgers, in her keynote address reported on the accomplishments of VALE in its first 10 years of existance. She mentioned current projects such as the Open Library Environment (OLE). She called for more collaboration among the member institutions. I picked the following breakout sessions:

• OLE Project Update
• Using OPAC Search Logs and Google Analytics
• Moving Beyond the Reference Desk
