A task force of Aurariabrarians is currently deciding on the fate of the Library's ADI--the database of databases that, until our implementation of 360 Search, was our primary point of access for database searching. The concern is that we will be expending resources maintaining multiple redundant systems. The task force is considering retiring the ADI and using Skyline and 360 Search to provide access to our online resources.
At the November reference department meeting, concern was expressed over what functionality would be lost if the ADI is retired. What concerns you personally? If the ADI went away, what would you miss? Post your comments below by Wednesday, January 16th, so that the task force can weigh this information at our next meeting.
