Abstract

This paper reports on the underlying motivations of the ongoing project BLIIPS to make public libraries more intelligent by data-driven optimization. Four key developments are described which drive the approach: data gathering in physical spaces using sensors, retail approaches in current public libraries, intelligent algorithms for data analysis and experimentation with data-driven strategies. I highlight these developments to arrive at the final target: data-driven, experimental, physical, public library innovation.
