OCLC Next - Next provides insight and information about the work being done by and for libraries all over the world. Did you catch all of the 2017 end-of-year book lists?
Probably the most noteworthy are The New York Times best sellers lists. Barnes and Noble publishes one, as does Publishers Weekly. Amazon publishes a most purchased books list as well, which gets a lot of attention. As you know, we at OCLC have a different list—the books that are the most shared, as measured by interlibrary loan requests! Last year, our resource sharing systems handled more than 7 million ILL requests from all over the world. We’ve been gathering this data for many years and publishing it here for the past two years. Well, in 2017, ILL requests once again were closely aligned with current events—what was taking place in the news and popular culture.* Here are latest themes in interlibrary loan based on our data.

After a pile of acquisitions (NetG, Books 24×7, SumTotal, ElementK, MindLeaders, 50 Lessons, Vodaclic) it found itself declining in popularity and unable to innovate. But with a recent restructuring of its debt (by converting it to equity) it is ready to reposition itself. A few years ago it launched Percipio, a new learning experience platforms (LXP).

David Weinberger: Joho the Blog - Let's just see what happens. The hosts of the BardCast podcast consider Cymbeline to probably be Shakespeare’s worst play.
Not enough happens in the first two acts, the plot is kuh-razy, it’s a mishmash of styles and cultures, and it over-explains itself time and time again. That podcast is far from alone in thinking that it’s the Bard’s worst, although, as BardCast says, even the Bard’s worst is better than just about anything. Nevertheless, when was the last time you saw a performance of Cymbeline? Yeah, me neither. We saw it yesterday afternoon, in its final performance at Shakespeare & Co in Lenox, Mass. It was directed by the founder of the company, Tina Packer, and showed her usual commitment to modernizing Shakespeare by finding every emotional tone and every laugh in the original script.

As a librarian, I worry about the ways that emotion, especially anger, influences our interactions with information. So much of our political discourse is intended to arouse indignation, and I’m concerned about indignation’s impact on one’s ability to learn. Higher education needs to become more intentional about preparing students for inflammatory discourse as a potential hazard in the information landscape. An important Pew study offers a lens for understanding the cyclical relationship between our media habits and the increasing political polarization of the United States. The short version is that media consumers spend more time with media that confirms their political outlook, and that ideological reinforcement makes one less receptive to dissenting views. A subsequent Pew study confirms the tension. Can indignation foster learning? Creative Commons Blog.
