NISO Webinar: The Internet of Things

Wednesday, October 19, 2016
1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m., Eastern time

The decrease in the cost of sensors and the connectivity necessary to
support them has given rise to a network of interconnected devices.
This network, often called the Internet of Things (IoT), creates a
variety of information management issues. For the library and
publishing communities, the IoT presents opportunities and challenges
around the gathering, organization, and processing of the tremendous
amounts of data the network generates. How will these data be
incorporated into traditional publication, archiving, and resource
management systems?  Additionally, how will the IoT impact resource
management within our community? In what ways will interconnected
resources provide a better user experience for patrons and readers?
This session will introduce concepts surrounding and potential
implications of the IoT on the information management community. It
will also explore applications related to managing emerging resources
in a library environment.

(1)  Education in the Internet of Things
Bryan Alexander, Consultant

 (2) What Does the Internet of Things Mean to a Museum?
Robert Weisberg, Senior Project Manager, Publications and Editorial
