Join Bailey-Hainer as she discusses a new resource sharing model. Reviewing the growth of extensions or plug-ins for Web browsers that assist in locating library resources, she will introduce the concurrent development of a group of librarians and others who have been rethinking resource sharing and have conceived a more generic and extensible plug-in.

A prototype "GetIT Button" is being developed by members of the Rethinking Resource Sharing Initiative, an "ad hoc group that advocates for a complete rethink of the way libraries conduct resource sharing in the context of the global internet revolution and all of the developments that have arisen from that." The session will focus on a demonstration of the prototype and other similar efforts underway and serve as a springboard for initiating other efforts.
