  31. Summary • Library services must add value to the research process or the experience • Library services needs to be integrated into the students and researchers workflow • Scare: used to be resources but is now attention • Objects are results of a process and their representation can be created (semi)automatically - VRE • Objects carry intelligence / structured information in themselves • Need to address business models
