Googlelization Is:
• Often misunderstood
• Does not mean you love Google or hate library databases
• Another way to say “I want to give users a Google experience”
• There are some good experiments in making library databases “more like Google” but still sophisticated(e.g., RedLightGreen)
• Is “federated” search a viable option

Googlelizers Vs. Resistors Poll
A – I’m a Googlelizer!
I’m in favor of “Googlelizing” the interfaces of most library databases
B – I’m a Resistor!I think we need to retain the sophisticated features of library databases, databases that actually deliver goodsearches
Choose A Side!

Google Migration
• Put the library content where the users are – in Google
• If they bypass the library – we can still deliver it to the users – assuming they can find it (link resolving or other connections provided by content vendor)
• How will this change searching behavior?
• Best example is Open WorldCat
• Will library databases be next?

Let’s turn everyone into librarians
Good enough is okay
Only librarians like to search
Library databases are too complex
Change it all for Millennials

How Do We Survive (and prosper!)
• Develop expertise – and keep up
• Preach balance – there is a full spectrum of search resources – use them all wisely
• Create user awareness in your community
• Open up eyes and minds with comparative search utilities
• Think competitively and differentiate the library
