Abstract
Chapter 3 of Library Technology Reports (vol. 52, no. 6), “The Knowledge Base at the Center of the Universe"
Explores the intersection between knowledge bases and library services platforms (LSPs), a new generation of systems that aim to bring together core activities previously dispersed between discovery tools, electronic resources management systems, and integrated library systems.
