Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Libraries are complex and advanced forms of information systems which extend and augment their physical counterparts by amplifying existing resources and services and enabling development of new kinds of human problem solving and expression. Their complexity arises from the data-rich domain of discourse as well as from extended demands for multi-disciplinary input, involving distributed systems architectures, structured digital documents, collaboration support, human-computer interaction, information filtering, etc. In addition to the broad range of technical issues, ethics and intellectual property rights add to the complication that is normally associated with the development, maintenance, and use of Digital Libraries. The Second European Conference on Digital Libraries (ECDL’98) builds upon the success of the first of this series of European Conferences on Research and Advanced Technology for Digital Libraries, held last year in Pisa, Italy, September 1-3, 1997. This series of conferences is partially funded by the TMR Programme of the European Commission and is actively supported and promoted by the European Research Consortium on Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM). The aim is to bring together the different communities involved in the development of Digital Libraries, to review progress and to discuss strategies, research and technological development (RTD) issues, as well as specific topics related to the European context. These communities include professionals from universities, research centres, industry, government agencies, public libraries, etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cataloging and Classification: Trends, Transformations, Teaching, and Training indicates and describes significant trends in cataloging and classification--the practices, services, management, principles, professional education and training, and employment prospects. This is the resource everyone can use to keep their cataloging and classification skills sharp. It gives librarians and information professionals awareness of important innovations likely to change the way they do their job, enables library directors and managers to do longer-range planning, and provides library school faculty and students with insight into new developments and approaches with which they need to be familiar. Cataloging and Classification: Trends, Transformations, Teaching, and Training will increase your awareness and insight into current developments in the field. In turn, this leads to: an appropriate integration and exploration of technologies, systems, and tools better deployment of personnel and expertise more efficient and relevant user-sensitive cataloging and classification, faster and more effective preparation and searching of catalogs more efficient and relevant library school courses and training sequences greater appreciation by library personnel and library users of the value of catalogs and classifications Cataloging and Classification: Trends, Transformations, Teaching, and Training is presented in three main categories: The Cataloger, The Future of Classification Systems, and New Technology and Its Implications. Specific topics you'll read about include the use of vendor services and nontraditional staff for cataloging; recommendations for a syndetic curricular structure; the call to raise classification and subject analysis to more usable and sophisticated levels; an action agenda for technical services in the digital age; and an evaluation of the capabilities of OPACs made possible by advances in technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T The Turn analyzes the research of information seeking and retrieval (IS&R) and proposes a new direction of integrating research in these two areas: the fields should turn off their separate and narrow paths and construct a new avenue of research. An essential direction for this avenue is context as given in the subtitle Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context. Other essential themes in the book include: IS&R research models, frameworks and theories; search and works tasks and situations in context; interaction between humans and machines; information acquisition, relevance and information use; research design and methodology based on a structured set of explicit variables - all set into the holistic cognitive approach. The present monograph invites the reader into a construction project - there is much research to do for a contextual understanding of IS&R. The Turn represents a wide-ranging perspective of IS&R by providing a novel unique research framework, covering both individual and social aspects of information behavior, including the generation, searching, retrieval and use of information. Regarding traditional laboratory information retrieval research, the monograph proposes the extension of research toward actors, search and work tasks, IR interaction and utility of information. Regarding traditional information seeking research, it proposes the extension toward information access technology and work task contexts. The Turn is the first synthesis of research in the broad area of IS&R ranging from systems oriented laboratory IR research to social science oriented information seeking studies.
