Joe Murphy

The first thing I do when I move to a new city

is get a library card

Post PC Era Tipping Point

For the first time, PCs do not consume the majority of memory chips.

PC’s market share of DRAM drops below 50% for the first time.Up until now, PCs have “defined and dominated” the DRAM chip market.Chip suppliers de-prioritizing PCs in favor of the now faster growing markets of smartphones and tablets.

“Personal computers are not at the center of the technology universe anymore.”

At first, I thought this was an art display

1/2 Billion Subscriptions to cloud Storage Services

A trend shift from the consumer side

News depends on attitude

When people think of a time before Google, they think of libraries

“there were things called libraries”

“in the old days you’d go to the reference library”

Apple as the World’s Most Valuable CompanyApple recently became the most valuable company of all time,

giving us further reason to closely watch this giant’s impacts in technology and content.Why it Matters to Libraries:• The biggest company is now a tech company• guides opportunities and changes in interaction (service) and access (content). • Apple sets the direction of consumer technology for all players and guides

consumer behavior and expectations.• Apple dominates the major arenas of smartphones and tablets, providing

opportunities as well as pressures for libraries. • Apple is a major digital media provider, making impactful waves in several

content industry segments, including eBooks.• Be aware of trends as we adapt to the changing world. • Knowing the data works alongside being familiar with the tools and behaviors of

our users for refining current service and planning for future pivots.

NFC + Business Cards

• Focus: print experience w/ mobile/digital

• Arena: how we exchange information

• 1 NFC enabled card in each pack (eliminates having to exchange objects)

• NFC Code can be updated

The death of QR Codes is greatly … … discussed

• Proximity as access • Why QR Codes will

remain• As long as the

camera is universal • Why they will wither• Why libraries should

continue to invest

The writing may be on the wall,

but we may have to be willing to interpret it

• Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos said at the product release, “Paperwhite is the Kindle we’ve always wanted to build—the technology didn’t exist to build a display with this level of contrast, resolution, brightness and battery life, so our engineers invented it.”

Kindle Paperwhite

Paperwhite Special Features:“Time to Read” feature uses your measured reading speed metrics to predict know when you’ll finish a chapter.Miss those author biographies from the backs of paper books? The new Kindle Paperwhite has those now too. Bios are hyperlinked to more by that author with direct purchasing from within the Paperwhite.

Kindle Fire HD

• Smaller than iPad• Rivals Google Nexus 7 • Feature, Kindle Free Time allows parents to set

time limits for types of content; games, movies, reading (unlimited perhaps?) etc. Supports multiple profiles on the device.

Kindle Serials:Like Dickens of old, subscribe to an ebook once for $1.99 and automatically receive the complete piece in serialized segments as they are released. It is hoped that this will provide opportunities for the authors to react fluidly to reader opinion.

Choices

Impact and reflect experience

we focus on chasing the notion

until the pursuit itself devours us

A balanced focus on our traditions

& priorities balanced with future directions

We prefer a choice in format. Often inspired by context.
