626 Computers, 380,000 digitized books, 116 million pieces of digital content—the library of the future?
Monash University: A Case Study “Ebooks and associated electronically-generated cataloging records make it easier and quicker for staff to acquire, promote and “lend” books – and the cost per use is lower compared to print. It cuts down the space required to house the collection, reduces the need for physical handling and results in a “greener” information resource. Cost, space and time savings can be redirected to other priorities, like efforts designed to make the library a more inviting place and increase the role it plays on campus. Resources realized by migrating the book collection from print to electronic were used to help develop and implement a plan to draw larger numbers of people to the library. As a result door counts have increased significantly. More floor space translated into more group study areas, more tolerant policies regarding noise and food and beverage were instituted and wireless Internet access was installed.” Robert Thomas, Library Manager Hargrave-Andrew Library, Monash University—Australia

Specific Research Needs for a Flexible Historical Data Window…
Even with filtered data….most disciplines need archival data….Backfiles
A possible conclusion might be….. • Researchers……… • Ideally don’t prefer historical access limitations • Ideally don’t prefer limitations depending on the type of the document (whether the search result is from a journal/book/etc.) • Finally • The search results even with severe filtering should consist all relevant data and then user should decide which one to exclude!!!!!!!!!! • The usage behaviour should be well understood ! It is not searching over shelves in the library……….
