Abstract
Co-producer of the FreePint Topic Series "All About Usage - From Content Sharing to Data Mining", Anja Thygesen, looks at the transformation of information databases over the last 30 years. She highlights advances such as automated indexing, speech to text, Google-like search, and the rise of the end-user researcher. Anja explains what this means for information professionals in terms of training, complex searching and database selection - and what actions they should take.
