Web-Scale Discovery Services: Principles, Applications, Discovery Tools and Development Hypotheses summarizes and presents the state-of-the-art in WSDS. The title promotes a middle-way between finding the best tool for each particular need and the search for the most reliable systems. The title identifies basic theoretical problems and offers practical solutions for librarians. The volume offers a summary of ideas from around the world, giving a new perspective that is backed up by strong theory. Offering a vision for libraries, this book also allows archivists, museum specialists, computer scientists, commercial operators and interested users to deepen their culture and information literacy.
The great number of information sources now available and the changing habits of web users has led to the development of Web Scale Discovery Services (WSDS). The goal of these systems and techniques is to make catalogues, databases, institutional repositories, Open Access archives and other databases searchable and discoverable through a single point of access. The diffusion of systems and connections between data disseminated by libraries and published by other institutions poses a challenge to understanding discovery in the modern library.
Roberto Raieli is the Director of the Department of History, Anthropology, Religion, Art and Performing Arts Library at the Sapienza University in Italy. He is also interim Director of the 'Angelo Monteverdi' Library for Philological, Linguistic, and Literary Studies at the same institution. He holds a PhD in Bibliographic, Archival and Documental Sciences, and his research interests include information science, digital libraries, information retrieval, documentation, and the semantic web.

"Ultimately, it's for those interested in the technical and philosophical issues associated with the (probably impossible) task of bringing order to the chaos of our digital future." --Ian McCallum, (JALIA).
