Abstract

Although library catalogs are often thought of as discovery tools, the catalog’s delivery-related information is just as important to end users. This report presents findings from focus groups and online surveys of end users and library professionals that indicate what catalog data elements and services are rated as important to end users, and contrasts these requirements to what library professionals report they need from catalog data and services.
