What is the future of search, online content, and reference questions? How can today’s information searchers help us envision the library of the future? Dr. Daniel Russell, library advocate, user, and Senior Research Scientist for Search Quality & User Happiness at Google, will share his thoughts on the future of libraries, online question asking, information search and retrieval.

Russell’s work focuses on understanding how searchers think of online content, exploring how they search and what they consider search success and failure. He blogs at
SearchReSearch, teaches search skills classes online at PowerSearchingWithGoogle.com, and teaches live search classes at libraries throughout California and the world. Russell has been affiliated for several years with the University of Maryland's Future of Information Alliance as its Future-ist in Residence.
