Enriched databases are undeniably valuable in search, discovery, and reuse of scholarly content. Yet now, more than ever, researchers want to traverse content sets rather than work within just a single database. The potential for collaboration on multiple levels as well as development in technology is significant.

Although this potential is recognized by many, challenges remain. Database creation rarely includes the type of forward-thinking design elements to accommodate the later melding of content between and among external sources. Even where a database can be effectively interrogated and content integrated, the tools or rights to mash up content sets may not exist.

 In this program, information providers share how their customers work across content sets. The presenters provide a strong mix of practical applications spanning STEM and social science use cases. The approaches discussed and the potential of content integration will be relevant to a wide range of attendees.


The use cases our presenters will share include:

  *
JSTOR Labs' Content Mashups
  *
Building a Semantic Platform for Life Sciences at Elsevier
  *
How IHS uses Institutional Knowledge and Expertise across its Enterprise
