Book Synopsis Re-engineering and Redefining University Libraries in the Context of Modern Information and Communication Technologies by : A. T. Francis
Download or read book Re-engineering and Redefining University Libraries in the Context of Modern Information and Communication Technologies written by A. T. Francis and published by Ess Ess Publication. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technological advances, especially within information and communication technologies, have brought remarkable changes in the functions and services of libraries and information centers. In recent decades, the library and information service sector has witnessed rapid changes due to various factors. In order to cope with these changes and to improve the organizational performance through the effective use of the latest technologies, various strategies are commonly used. Among these, Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) is one of the leading management approaches which deals with the radical redesign of an organization's processes, especially its business processes. Rather than organizing an institution into functional specialties (like production, accounting, marketing, etc.) and looking at the tasks that each function performs, the re-engineering theory is looking at complete processes from acquisition, to production or services, to marketing, distribution, and dissemination. Hence, the organization should be re-engineered into a series of processes. BPR in libraries target to serve the clientele not as a mechanical act, but one that provides an opportunity for fulfillment and meaning. Policy planners, head of institutions, librarians, and library staff should be able to understand the principles of re-engineering their libraries. This book provides a detailed management analysis in the context of modern ICTs and depicts various aspects of re-engineering that can be used to re-define the business processes of libraries, especially university libraries. The book also discusses the re-engineering and re-defining aspects of collection management, personnel management, technology management, service management, etc.

Book Synopsis Digital Libraries and Innovation by : Fabrice Papy
Download or read book Digital Libraries and Innovation written by Fabrice Papy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital libraries emerging from "information societies" no longer concern only digital technodocumentary devices that are patrimonial, cultural or scientific. Social networks and high-audience merchant sites share the same technologies, heterogeneous digital resources, offer identical user experience (UX) capabilities, and are born within the same communities of designers and engineers. These technology-induced recoveries nourish a usage fantasy that irrigates a transformation movement of innovation where use and user occupy a central place. The evolution of digital libraries does not constitute a disjointed set of singular innovations. They are the result of an innovation movement that gives them a specific dynamic and produces two major effects: empowering users and increasing their number. This book highlights and study that the combination of these effects is likely to have a positive impact not only from an economic point of view but more broadly from a social point of view. Presents information from the society of information Contains technologic and cognitive accessibility technologies Provides information on Interoperability technologies

Download or read book Library Services Platforms written by American Library American Library Association and published by ALA Editions. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The genre of library services platforms helps libraries manage their collection materials and automate many aspects of their operations by addressing a wider range of resources and taking advantage of current technology architectures compared to the integrated library systems that have previously dominated. This issue of Library Technology Reports explores this new category of library software, including its functional and technical characteristics. It highlights the differences with integrated library systems, which remain viable for many libraries and continue to see development along their own trajectory. This report provides an up-to-date assessment of these products, including those that have well-established track records as well as those that remain under development. The relationship between library services platforms and discovery services is addressed. The report does not provide detailed listings of features of each product, but gives a general overview of the high-level organization of functionality, the adoption patterns relative to size, types, and numbers of libraries that have implemented them, and how these libraries perceive their performance. This seminal category of library technology products has gained momentum in recent years and is positioned to reshape how libraries acquire, manage, and provide access to their
