Library management and innovation in the Big Data Era

Abstract

[...]library big data can be categorized into two groups: catalogue and process/transactional data. Values for librarian are manifested in the changes and benefits provided by intelligent big data analytical techniques to librarians and digital management processes that enables library to provide competitive products and services with minimal costs. Due to the high volume, variety, velocity, and veracity of big data, the development of library management system requires not only the design of a new architecture, but also the application of digital technology in managing library big data, such as data acquirement, preservation, and processing. [...]both digital library management and digital library innovation constitute a transition closed-loop system, where library innovation drives library management, which in turn provides management systems and necessary support for library innovation.
