Gale’s SVP Paul Gazzolo Wants to Unlock the Publisher’s Information Vault
What types of digital products are you planning to work on in the next couple of years?
There are two areas that I'm particularly interested in. The first is the Gale Virtual Reference Library. It is really the building block for a lot of different things; how to enable a library, instructor, or student to access what's inside of a Gale database so that it can be consumed, shared, or taught from is an area of great interest for us. Beyond that I can't tell you what we plan to build because we're not at that stage yet. But we do have teams that are spending a great deal of time with instructors, librarians, and students to see how we can unlock the value of the content there and bring it to the student rather than expect the student or instructor to find it.
