Future. Ebooks. Google. OUNL. Poodle. The JISC SIS Landscape Study. Posted by Brian Kelly (UK Web Focus) on 10 June 2009 The JISC is funding a landscape study on the UK HE sector use of content, communication and social networking services developed by commercial companies (or, perhaps more accurately, outside of the JISC sector).
As we know although JISC has developed a number of services specifically for use within the UK higher and further education sector (e.g. Jorum, JISCmail, etc.) people within the sector are increasingly using services developed outside the sector, either in addition to – or in some cases instead of – JISC-provided services.
