abstract = {The purpose of this research is to identify the innovative features of the LSPs that differentiate them from the LMS, as well as to evaluate their importance, based on the opinions of the Greek information scientists. The method used is the Delphi 2-round questionnaire. The results show that the experts most value an all-in-one system that incorporates all modules within it, instead of different collaborating software. Interoperability between systems, the adoption of new metadata standards, the SaaS architecture and the multi-tenant model are also held in high regard. In contrast, the use of the mobile library applications feature has achieved low ranking.},

abstract = {During the past few decades, it seems that personalizing and adjusting the e-courses’ content based on individual learning styles is rather important. Indeed, several studies have been carried out throughout the years regarding the a priori personalization and adjustment of e-courses systems. This way modern LMSs (Learning Management Systems) could identify beforehand the learning styles of the e-course attendants and adjust the lesson content flow and type based on personal learning styles. Nevertheless, little bibliography exists on how to assess the compatibility level between educational content and learning styles dimensions of an LMS, in a real-life environment.  With the above thoughts in mind, the current work attempts to introduce and verify an innovative framework for the students' learning styles and e-courses compatibility assessment, based on the content type and volume. The proposed framework is validated through its application at an LMS in a real-life academic environment. Such an approach could be very beneficial for already deployed e-courses on LMSs that aim to differentiate educational content provision based on users’ profiles.},
