It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Jones, Elisabeth (2011): Large-scale book digitization in historical context: outlines of a comparison. In: Proceedings of the 2011 iConference 2011. pp. 829-830.

An ongoing research project is introduced, comparing current large-scale digitization initiatives to early American public libraries as efforts to democratize access to information. Selected parallels and contrasts between these two phenomena are outlined, and a plan for further research -- a comparative case study analysis of two exemplars on each side of the comparison, informed by structuration and sociotechnical systems theory -- is described.
