We have just concluded our voting and the results are in! We now have the official list of six key trends, six significant challenges, and six emerging technologies that will appear in the upcoming NMC Horizon Report > 2014 Library Edition. This project is a collaborative effort between the NMC, University of Applied Sciences (HTW) Chur, Technische Informationsbibliothek (TIB) Hannover, and ETH-Bibliothek Zurich. The NMC is interested in learning about any kind of pilot programs or innovative projects happening at your library in any of the 18 areas listed in the final selections. The goal is to help readers understand the potential impact of these topics and their applications on academic and research libraries across the globe. Please follow this link to review the official list and consider submitting your examples! http://www.nmc.org/news/submit-your-project-first-horizon-report-library-edition Thanks all, ~Lindley ------------ Lindley C.

It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
