Abstract = {Summary: This article explores reasons why the Western
library system does not adequately address Africa''s vision for a
library and why it does not meet the local needs for information. With a
focus on the AIDS pandemic, the role and mission of libraries are
revisited as a customized tool that is culturally localized to
effectively participate as a proactive disseminator of information,
specifically to support the three key public health objectives regarding
HIV/AIDS, namely, to have people tested for the virus, to inform those
infected about their best options to sustain life, and to support
efforts to prevent the spread of HIV. A progressive Africanized vision
of the role of libraries is proposed—to retool libraries from their
current passive roles as the guardians of books, to active, live, and
customized disseminators of socially relevant and culturally appropriate
information. [Copyright 2008 Elsevier] },

Abstract = {The past few years have seen an enormous growth in the
number of journals that libraries can access electronically. This is a
well-researched and well-documented phenomenon, but no studies have
compared the actual number of electronic journals a library can access,
particularly in comparison with the total number of journals they
receive through all sources, including print. The growth of serials
management companies suggests the possibility of this research. Through
analysis of resources tracked by Serials Solutions, Inc., one can get a
firm grasp on how many electronic journals a library is tracking, in
comparison with the number of print or microfilm titles they have. This
article presents the first comprehensive analysis of how many journals
public and various types of academic libraries can access
electronically, rather than in print. While highlighting the incredible
increase in access to information electronically, it also identifies the
limitations of the current research, par},

Abstract = {Postmodernism is still the subject of vigorous ongoing
debate in a variety of fields like education and anthropology and has
now arrived in the literature of librarianship. Prior conflicts
generated over postmodernism remain–including academic areas where it
has been declared passé. This paper summarizes postmodernism and its
intellectual contributions, and then highlights its shortcomings via
critical educational scholarship utilizing that field as a framework of
analysis for librarianship. This is undertaken to relate both strengths
of and problems with postmodernist theories for current work among
scholars in librarianship. We do so to learn from the course of debate
in another field and to challenge postmodern research trends in
librarianship that do not account for the cultural and economic effects
of capitalism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

promote music to all, to enhance confidence and raise self-esteem in
children that will spill over into other aspects of their life. It can
also be a way to encourage reading between parents and children, for
them to participate in music as well as stories and bringing these two

analyzed for layout, technology, and links, and other general site
metrics were taken. Methods: Websites were selected based on rank in the
National Network of Libraries of Medicine, with regional and resource
libraries given preference on the basis that these libraries are
recognized as leaders in their regions and would be the most reasonable
source of standards for best practice. A three-page evaluation tool was
developed based on previous similar studies. All forty-one sites were
evaluated in four specific areas: library general information, Website
aids and tools, library services, and electronic resources. Metrics
taken for electronic resources included orientation of bibliographic
databases alphabetically by title or by subject area and with links to

Abstract = {Akos Domanovszky (1902-1984) is a distinguished figure of
standardized cataloging in Hungary and internationally, and his name was
well-known since he was active in the standardization activities of the
International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)
since 1964. Outlines the cornerstones of Domanovszky's theoretical work
in the area of international harmonization of major national cataloging
rules. He based his thoughts on the expectations of users, and was thus
closer to Anglo-American principles than Prussian ones. The common aim
to be achieved was that the unity of formal and standard features
enhance the use of catalogs in their three-fold functions. Examines the
most important principles and guidelines of standardization, the
requirements of users, which must be taken into account as far as
possible, and the honoring of traditions. Domanovszky took part in the
elaboration of the ISBD-based standards of bibliographic description in
Hungary, and aided this },

offerings on the Web continues to grow, one conspicuous deficiency is
the lack of a comprehensive international bibliography of Slavic and
East European studies. Thanks to the Web, it is now technically possible
to correct this deficiency. This paper outlines a project to build a
comprehensive guide to scholarship in our field through international
collaboration over the Web. The paper discusses the history of the
American Bibliography of Slavic and East European Studies (ABSEES)

Abstract = {Reference desks are standard features in general academic
libraries, but are they staples in academic music libraries? The
following study answers this question and also provides insight into the
factors that have an effect on the existence of desks in these
libraries. The study's survey indicated that two of these factors,
library staffing practices and the reference service philosophy of music
library staff members, had a meaningful impact on reference desks. The
survey also found that there has been a resurgence of interest in
establishing reference desks during the last decade, and that interest
in continuing that trend was high. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

convenience sample of members of the Medical Library Association and a
group of environmental health consultants to the National Library of

comment and analysis prior to the Internet, is being challenged by a
powerful new contender--the blog. Has the column's importance
diminished, even been rendered obsolete, by new e-venues such as the
blog? The author, appreciative of the value and history of both columns
and blogs, first defines these venues of publication, gives a brief
history of each, and then outlines similarities and differences between
the two. With this foundation in place, the author then discusses how
the boundaries between new modes of online discussion, such as blogs,
and traditional modes of journalistic commentary, such as columns, are
blurring. The author looks at how blogs are changing professional and
academic communication, calling for discussion on how blogs and columns
can serve complementary purposes. This paper was the basis for the

Abstract = {In copyright law, the principle of moral rights is that some
part of the creator's personality has gone into each original work, and
that this element of personality cannot be sold or transferred. Moral
rights are not about money, which is readily divisible, but about
concepts such as reputation and integrity, which are not. Offers three
examples of international collaborations where moral rights expectations
could clash. These examples are partially fictional, and meant to
illustrate differences in the law and culture, not to provide legal
commentary. The person raising the issue in each case comes from
Germany, where the moral rights tradition is well established and the
legislation quite explicit. While US citizens can and occasionally do
assert their moral rights, moral rights play a small and very new role
in the Anglo-US copyright tradition. Concludes that at present, the best
remedy for moral rights disputes in the networked environment is for all
parties to understand the pote},

the points of need is critical in the health system/hospital enterprise.
This information access can be enabled by the skills and experiences of
catalogers for internally generated information and by reference
librarians for integrating the best external information into the

of inventorying and classifying clinical documents and physician order
sets, a case is presented for health sciences librarians to cultivate
deeper connections with clinical colleagues and health system/hospital
enterprises. A literature review and informal listserv survey of EMR
activities and interest among health sciences librarians indicate that
contributions and collaboration are emerging and a significant impact of
53% of survey responders favored or participated in EMR development.

the core of the model. The boundary of work for a serial is

Abstract = {This article describes a health sciences electronic book
(eBook) scene that may resemble experiences in other types of libraries.
Ninety nine percent of survey respondents in a 2002 survey of academic
health sciences librarians indicated that their libraries provided
access to eBooks. Libraries usually begin their venture by looking for
reliable textbooks online. The number of publishers and providers
licensing eBook content expanded since 2002. Research is announced in
health sciences journal literature, but broad overview reviews needed by
health sciences students of various levels are found in textbook
literature. Some electronic titles may be considered by librarians to be
part of a quick reference collection. Health science libraries may not
actively license eBooks from general and niche subject providers. It is
common for public libraries to license large collections of eBooks
available for loan and also content that can be read on personal digital
assistants (PDA). PDA download},

Abstract = {Many serials librarians can relate incidents where
communication has broken down during efforts to establish and maintain
access to electronic journals. Questions often arise about who is
responsible for specific tasks, and who is to be contacted in certain
circumstances. This article presents a "collaborative checklist" to
address such questions and discusses the processes by which each of the
major parties in the serials acquisition chain (library, subscription
agent, publisher) contributes to the establishment and maintenance of
access to electronic journals. The checklist comprises fourteen
categories of tasks and the portion for which each party is responsible.
Each category is meant to serve as a guide for designing a procedure for
the particular task that is addressed, within the context of the whole
process of establishing and maintaining access to electronic journals.

Abstract = {Over the past five years the Wayne State University Library
System has become a national leader in the transition from print to
electronic, with nearly 60% of the $7 million annual materials budget
going to pay .for electronic resources. Learning how to manage these
resources has been an evolutionary process. This article discusses the
WSULS experience with regards to: (1) the transition from print to
electronic, (2) the current state of e-resources management, and (3)
future directions in utilizing staff and technology to address
e-resource issues. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

Abstract = {Successive entry cataloging has been used by most libraries
since the early 1970s when the Library of Congress adopted this AACRI
standard as an innovative solution to the problems of retyping lengthy
serial catalog cards. The benefits of successive cataloging in an online
environment have steadily diminished, and frustrations have increased
over the past 35 years. Latest entry cataloging reduces the number of
bibliographic records that are needed for one serial by providing access
to all titles on one record. It promotes efficient processing of title
changes for library staff and causes less frustration for library
patrons. It's time for a radical change! [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

records for some titles) increasingly unworkable, confusing to the
library user and costly to maintain. Discussions during the winter and

e-journals prior to the start of the fall 2002 semester (using a single
record per title with multiple holdings for all formats and locations),
including those in the Serials Solutions list, and to replace the
e-journals and Serials Solutions lists with a link to the OPAC
periodicals search box. This permits finding information on the
library's holdings of all formats for a given periodical title in one

Abstract = {In the spring of 2003 the University Libraries at University
of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), conducted a Serials Assessment Project
which combined technology with effective communication between library
users and subject librarians to successfully identify journals that
could be cancelled, should cancellations be necessary due to budgetary
constraints. Although the library had conducted similar assessments in
1998 and 2000, a flesh look at past assessments resulted in an
innovative approach. The project and experience proved to be
tremendously positive for both the library and its users. This article
describes the planning and process by which the UNLV libraries designed
and conducted the 2003 review of UNLV's serials collection, comparing it

begun. On the other hand, cooperation between universities in Thailand

librarianship published in 2006 and 2007. The review shows that a
central topic in the literature is the nature and effect of libraries'

is reflected in publications that reconceptualize collections and
describe innovative initiatives and strategies for acquisition, access,

prevailing sentiment that libraries are advancing well beyond the
confines of print-centered models and are assuming new roles, imagining
new possibilities, and developing new solutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

and how its practice can expand in the national level. Interlibrary and
inter-librarian cooperation has been in practice for many years. Serial
librarians are very involved with collective purchasing and site
licensing arrangements, cooperative archiving projects, and shared
collection development strategies. The article draws information from
cooperative initiatives between libraries in New Zealand. There are
approximately five hundred libraries in the Australasian country, eight
of the major libraries are run by universities. There are nationwide
centralized systems for interlibrary loan, cooperative cataloging and
school library support, all of which are supervised by the New Zealand
National Library. The country has a sound, up-to-date information
communication technology. The Maoris, the country's indigenous people,
collaborates with social institutions for the promotion of technological
endeavors. },

effective multinational Internet presence requires designing web sites

a conceptual model that differentiates web site content from design. The

addresses presentation and navigational features. This conceptual web

Abstract = {Facilitated by the Internet, the globalization of
information has significant implications for intellectual property
regimes in Canada and internationally. Assessment of these implications
and their probable outcomes is unavoidably value-driven. Many
commentators foresee harmonization of intellectual property laws, but
some predict disparity in political economy outcomes, and some also see
profound effects on sovereignty. Presents a critical review of recent
literature on these topics which discloses a prevalent and rather
persuasive view: that globalization of information and the impact of the
Internet tend toward an international standard of strengthened
intellectual property laws and the erosion of sovereignty notions, with
the economic benefits flowing primarily to developed nations and
transnational corporations. Concludes that the prevalence of this view
in the recent literature may reflect an effort to bring less-heard
voices to the forefront of the discussion. },

Abstract = {The complexity of e-journal subscription management is
requiring subscription agents to re-invent themselves to meet new
demands. E-journal subscriptions have many more components, including
licensing, registration, access, usage statistics, and archiving. By
consolidating information and providing one-to-many and many to-one
flows of information, agents can provide efficiencies in operational
tasks as well as simplifying the financial transactions. Agents also can
add value in negotiations and in aggregating access to e-journals.
Agents are making changes in processes such as speeding communications
to publishers, partnering with third party content hosting services, and
entering into discussions about standards for communication of
electronic subscription information. This paper was presented as part of
a panel that included presentations by Steve Bosch and Selden Lamoureux.

Abstract = {Electronic publishing is changing the business of serial
publication. Yet despite tremendous growth in the volume of electronic
publishing, traditional print publishing has not disappeared;
consequently e-publishing has introduced more complexity into the
environment, and current service needs co-exist alongside the need for
new services required to manage e-publishing. Some believe that
electronic publishing will be the end of the serial vendor or
subscription agent; others are not so ready to mark their passing.
Assuming that the current commercial model will remain relatively
unchanged as the basis for most scholarly communication, the roles of
serial vendors or subscription agents will change, but the services they
bring to the library and the publishing community will continue to prove
valuable. Support will still be needed for paper subscriptions, and new
services are needed to manage e-journals. Of course change is
inevitable, and those service providers that fail to react to t},

2002. First assesses donor commitment to information and communication
technologies (ICTs), particularly whether they view ICTs as a priority
area or as a set of tools. States that the contribution of ICTs, in this
instance the Internet, to meeting international development goals is
currently the subject of considerable debate. Uses the examples of the
international women's movement and the emerging knowledge-sharing
philosophy to emphasize the qualitative impact of ICTs on development.
Concludes that while serious problems of access remain, ICTs do reduce
isolation, facilitate international cooperation, and provide access to
vast amounts of information. The knowledge-sharing philosophy which is
entering the development discourse is crucially dependent upon, and in
some cases fundamental},

developing countries joined IFLA, enabling it to become a truly
international organization. The professional program was enriched under
the framework of a mid-term program, within the organizational frame of
eight departments, 27 sections, ten roundtables, and six discussion
groups. Core programs in the major subject fields were initiated under
the control of a permanent staff, and have been playing a definite role
in international librarianship and its development. One of the main
concerns faced by IFLA has been the contents, forms, and financial
support of library matters in developing countries. Two newly-formed
committees have been addressing free access to information, as well as
copyright and related legal matters. Main tasks currently involve
meeting the challenges of the electronic age. },

suitable location for their business activities, bearing in mind that
they must find the right balance between global integration and local
responsiveness. Contributes to the internationalization debate by
examining how information technology will enable globalization. Focuses
on the sourcing process, an area where globalization is often claimed to
be the case. Re-examination of empirical evidence shows that global
sourcing is not as generally predominant as is claimed. Since inhibitors
to global integration thus exist, classifies them into three categories:
geographical, relational, and environmental inhibitors. Analyzes the
role that information technology plays in reducing these inhibitors, and
formulates propositions illustrated by two case studies. Concludes that
IT shifts the balance toward global integration, but simultaneously
creates new problems in managing internationalization. },

Abstract = {Despite great strides made in recent years to improve
Mexico's transportation and communication systems, obtaining material
through interlibrary loan (ILL) often remains difficult. Describes two
relatively small but successful programs that have been organized by the
Grupo Amigos and by the Transborder Library Forum (Foro). Explains how
both programs are important due to their international focus, noting
that the latter program is particularly interesting because of changes
being made at the Mexico coordinating library to allow end-users to
prepare their own ILL requests via the library's Web page. Compares the
two programs, and speculates about the future of ILL in Mexico. },

Abstract = {Explores the role of union catalogs in interlibrary loan and
document delivery, and considers how this role is changing to embrace
virtual holdings and electronic document delivery. Contrary to
expectations, figures from the Dutch National Union Catalog show that
physical loans are not decreasing, but rather now comprise more than 25%
of ILL activity. With direct user access, ILL has become unmediated, and
the numbers of traditional loans and photocopies have steadily
increased, with a dramatic rise in electronic copy. International ILL
poses technical and logistical problems for union catalogs. From a
system viewpoint, it is necessary to integrate ILL systems and local
library systems, and to determine the end user's ILL system and rights.
Describes how OCLC PICA's EUCAT (a pan-European index of union catalogs)
provides a good example of a federation of union catalogs. },

Abstract = {Delineates some of the problems that could arise in using
research output for performance evaluation. States that research
performance in terms of the impact factor of papers (e.g., of scientific
institutions in a country) could depend critically on co-authored papers
in a situation where internationally co-authored papers are known to
have significantly different (higher) impact factors as compared with
purely indigenous papers. Thus, international collaboration not only
serves to increase the overall output of research papers of an
institution, but the contribution of such papers to the average impact
factor of the institutional output could also be disproportionately
high. To quantify this effect, defines an index of gain in impact
through foreign collaboration (GIFCOL) such that it ensures
comparability between institutions with differing proportions of
collaborative output. Undertakes a case study of major Indian
institutions, using cluster analysis to distinguish between intrins},

Abstract = {This article examines the significance of music libraries in
the public library sector as of March 2005. Music libraries in the
public library sector are disappearing or being downsized at an alarming
rate. But in there are still many public libraries where music libraries
and music librarians are doing important work for their communities.
What many colleagues do not understand is what the true value of that
work is. The effective provision of music requires a lot of skills,
knowledge and expertise but where these are absent it can be difficult
to find the music that the library has available. Even though you find a
copy of the music for an enquiry you have to make sure that it is fit
for purpose. Many factors affect the successful provision of music in
libraries. First, it is undoubtedly true that many librarians find music
a difficult material to deal with confidently, not least because music
enquiries tend to become quite complex very quickly. Also problematical

subject access systems in the era of networked information. The main
argument builds on the fact that we nowadays witness the strongest

international librarianship. While the emergence to cope with the
practical challenges of a wider environment is emphasized, the need to
reinforce the internationalization of knowledge organization as a
professional library matter is stressed, not only at the pragmatic level
but also, more importantly, in theoretical terms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

to international librarianship for over 125 years. Individual and
collective practice is well regarded internationally since it is in
dialogue with international concerns, is based on shared values and
reaches high standards. Many are willing contributors to international
initiatives, contributing on a broad front and sometimes leading
discourse in new areas. The profession in Australia is
characteristically open to models of practice, ideas and colleagues from
elsewhere. It has been enlivened by practitioners from other countries
and Australian professionals have contributed elsewhere, especially in
Southeast and East Asia. The principal challenge is to maintain and
build on these characteristics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

on an observed value matrix of IRRC, which is asymmetric and has no
diagonal elements. Finds that the results fall into three groups: (1)
regional scientific productivity affects both the collaborative
preference and ranking of author name; (2) geographical proximity is an
important factor determining the pattern of IRRC; and (3) when using
Salton's measure, regional mean collaborative strength increases as the
regional productivity increases and as the distance between two regions
decreases. },

various tools to create, aggregate, and share dynamic content in ways
that are more creative and interactive than transactions previously
conducted on the Internet. The extension of this social environment to

how librarians will work, collaborate, and deliver content. Medical
librarians can connect with present and future generations of users by
learning more about the social dynamics of Web 2.0's vast ecosystem, and
incorporating some of its interactive tools and technologies (tagging,
peer production, and syndication) into routine library practice.

Abstract = {Digital versions of the library are proliferating as
information becomes ever more electronic. Traditional methods of library
cataloging are inadequate to fully describe digital objects in this new
dynamic environment. Thus, new standards of metadata are being devised
to provide access for objects in digital libraries. These new standards
extend beyond mere description; there is also a need to include other

Abstract = {More than any other civic institution, community libraries
are the hallmark of an informed society. It has the potential to
transform the way a community thinks about itself; it provides the
conditions and possibilities for intellectual growth, social mobility,
and community development and cohesion. The community digital library
has emerged as a recent evolution in the development of digital
libraries. A community digital library is distinct through having a
community of potential users who define and guide the development of the
library. Describes how the geoscience community has worked to develop
the Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE) in the light of
recent work in the area of meta-design, i.e., the design of the design
process. Discusses the development of DLESE utilizing a conceptual
framework developed from the analysis of a variety of open source
projects. },

aside despite its being important for the development of the new science

Abstract = {In this article open access is defined, and the resources
and issues of greatest relevance to the medical librarian are discussed.
The economics of open access publishing is examined from the point of
view of the university library. Open access resources, both journals and
articles in repositories, are already significant and growing rapidly.
There are close to 2300 fully open access, peer-reviewed journals listed
in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) (320 health sciences
titles are included). DOAJ is adding new titles at the rate of 1.5 per
day. An OAIster search of resources in repositories includes more than
7.6 million items (a rough estimate of the number of articles in
repositories, although not all items are full text), and this number
will exceed one billion items before the end of 2007. Medical research
funders, including the US National Institutes of Health, the Wellcome
Trust, the UK Medical Research Council, and the Canadian Institutes of
Health Research, either },

Abstract = {Jubert defines a community of practice as a flexible group
of professionals, informally bound by common interests, who interact
through interdependent tasks guided by a common purpose, thereby
embodying a store of common knowledge. Considers whether communities of
practice can be harnessed, engineered, and managed like other
organizational groups, or whether their strength lies in the fact that
they operate outside the stable and persistent social relations that
characterize the organization. Points out that communities of practice
are often described, defined, and justified in a number of different
ways. For epistemologists, they are a means of exploring concepts of
social or collective knowledge. For managers interested in performance,
they offer an opportunity to derive templates or frameworks for the
creation of organizational knowledge at a number of levels in the
interest of improved productivity. For designers, they provide case
studies of interactions with artifacts and infras},

Abstract = {Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching strategy
currently being introduced in undergraduate curricula in colleges and
universities across the US, particularly in applied areas such as
engineering and the biological sciences. Faculty are increasingly
interested in using PBL as an instructional tool, because students more
readily transfer the knowledge they acquire using PBL to real-world
situations. Librarians at a June 2002 LEOX-of-West pre-conference
workshop on PBL questioned how it could be used in the 50-minute library
instruction period, since PBL relies on cooperative learning techniques
for successful implementation. The librarians determined that PBL could
be applied in the 50-minute library instruction period using specific
Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) Information
Literacy Competency Standards, but that it could be more effectively
implemented in two 75-minute periods where collaboration among students
can be more easily facilitated. },

Abstract = {When two schools in Florida pledged to offer online classes
that were of equal quality to traditional classes, the decision was made
to embed librarians into select online classes. Embedded librarians from
the schools' joint-use library provided online orientation modules and
graded assignments, and took an active role in discussion forums
relating to research questions. Information on the experiences at both
schools is presented, and an analysis follows of what worked well in
each case and what was improved from the pilot programs. Recommendations
are provided for libraries considering embedding a librarian. [ABSTRACT

create an acquisitions system that meets the needs of libraries when

inquiry, or CI, is a process in which one or two members of a

they work while taking notes and asking questions. This happens before
software coding even begins. This information is taken back to a
development team where engineers are immersed in how libraries order,
receive, and invoice serial titles. Only after the development team has
a good understanding of the process does coding begin. This presentation

Abstract = {Librarians have long agonized over the challenge of the
so-called multiple version problem: how to catalog, associate, and
present related titles or related manifestations of a given work. The
appearance of increasingly large aggregations of electronic serials that
defy easy control has raised the level of interest in newer approaches.
At the LC Bicentennial Conference on Bibliographic Control, Confronting
the Challenge of Networked Resources and the Web, I argued that vendor
supply of metadata for serial aggregations was essential if the library
community was to achieve title-level control of these important and
expensive titles. It was argued that keeping MARC records for the
aggregations separate in the technical services view of the catalog but
merging them on the fly for the public view of the catalog would allow a
sophisticated ILS to achieve the best of both worlds by having
individual records and supporting a multiple versions approach to the
public display. Since that talk wa},

the discrepancy in serial retention patterns in Kentucky public

assessment of the degree to which public libraries have changed both the
number of serial titles and cumulative number of volumes held in the
collections. The study showed that the public libraries' management of

online services provided by the National Library of Medicine (NLM), part
of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. These
services include MEDLINE/PubMed, MedlinePlus, ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed

Evidence is available that the Web is an important and accessible source

growing helps in searching the Web, because no search engine crawls all

disorganized" Internet. Sometimes searches on search engines reveal only
a portion of the pages available on a Web site. Therefore, a pearl's

guidelines, recent attention has focused on approaches that can reliably
assess any updating required. Shekelle et al. (Journal of the American
Medical Association 2001, 286, 1461–7) proposed using limited literature
searches with expert involvement to reduce resources used in assessing
whether a guideline needs updating. Objectives: This study compared
Shekelle's method and the traditional systematic review method regarding
comprehensiveness and effort. Methods: Two research teams translated
critical key questions on screening test treatments and outcomes to
Medical Subjects Headings (MeSH) and search strategies. They refined
Shekelle's method over three iterations, seeking greater efficiency.
Using both methods independently, teams assessed the need to update six
topics from the 1996 Guide to Clinical Preventive Services (US

contributors. Finds that both the compatibility of the journal and the
decrease in complexity have an influence on diffusion, and that
bibliometric methods are able to represent the international diffusion

Abstract = {Workshop leaders Zeter and Thunell have observed the
difficulty with which some library patrons identify and locate journals.
They used this session to explore questions about how libraries today
offer access to serials and how information about serials is presented
to the public. They noted some characteristics of typical student
researchers and discussed the cause of increased user demand for
serials. They demonstrated the two electronic serials "pathways" used at
Michigan State University (MSU), Erasmus and MAGIC, and described their
respective advantages and disadvantages. Zeter and Thunell ended with
recommendations for serials searching improvements and suggestions of
issues for future study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

number of limitations are pointed out. Some questions for further

pattern, is a valid method for determining the core concept in journal
collection management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

example, engineers who have created some new technology, and users who

merely intermediaries between the worlds of technicians and users is

spurred libraries serving visually impaired people to cooperate globally

library services to print-impaired people and changed the participating

Abstract = {Retrospective conversion is a costly endeavor, especially
when the quality of description utilized during the mark-up process is
insufficient according to data content standards. When retrospective
conversion is implemented in a cooperative project, the problems are
compounded. Administrators and encoders alike are forced to reckon with
legacy data formats and descriptive styles that do not match those
utilized in their own archival practices. More time and financial
expenditures must often be placed on administrative duties in order to
deal with the lack of standardization. Discusses effort to mitigate the
high cost of cooperative projects, focusing on the author's experience
in analyzing costs while implementing a cooperative Encoded Archival
Description (EAD) project as an archivist working in the Center for
History of Physics at the American Institute of Physics. },

Abstract = {Web 2.0 sociable technologies and social software are
presented as enablers in health and health care, for organizations,
clinicians, patients and laypersons. They include social networking
services, collaborative filtering, social bookmarking, folksonomies,
social search engines, file sharing and tagging, mashups, instant
messaging, and online multi-player games. The more popular Web 2.0
applications in education, namely wikis, blogs and podcasts, are but the
tip of the social software iceberg. Web 2.0 technologies represent a
quite revolutionary way of managing and repurposing/remixing online
information and knowledge repositories, including clinical and research
information, in comparison with the traditional Web 1.0 model. The paper
also offers a glimpse of future software, touching on Web 3.0 (the
Semantic Web) and how it could be combined with Web 2.0 to produce the
ultimate architecture of participation. Although the tools presented in
this review look very promising and potent},

Abstract = {ISI's journal impact factors (IFs), based on citation data,
have become generally accepted as a valid measure of the quality of
scholarly journals, and are widely used by publishers, authors, funding
agencies and librarians as measures of journal quality. There are,
nevertheless, misgivings about an over-reliance on impact factor alone
in this respect and there is growing interest in the development of
usage-based alternatives to citation-based measures of journal
performance. Against this background, the United Kingdom Serials Group
(UKSG) thought it would be timely to sponsor a study to investigate the
feasibility of journal usage factors. This article describes the aims of
the study, the results obtained and the conclusions drawn. There appears
to be significant support, even among established publishers whose
journals perform well in impact factor rankings, for the development and
implementation of journal usage factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

academic health sciences librarians value knowledge of the health
sciences and spend a considerable amount of time gaining and maintaining
it. The current study replicates the earlier Canadian survey but employs
a larger American sample to address three questions: Do academic health

health sciences to be important, and if so, how do they acquire it? Do
the attitudes of Canadian and American academic health sciences
librarians differ with respect to subject knowledge? Methods -- An
invitation to participate in a Web-based survey was sent to 711 academic
health sciences librarians working in the US; 154 participated. Results
-- Academic health sciences librarians in the US felt that keeping up

Abstract = {Objective: To meet the information needs of isolated primary
care providers and their patients in the US Navy, a digital health
sciences library, the Virtual Naval Hospital, was created through a
unique partnership between academia and government. Methods: The
creation of the digital library was heavily influenced by the principles
of user-centered design and made allowances for the nomadic nature of
the digital library's patrons and the heterogeneous access they have to
Internet bandwidth. Results: The result is a digital library that has
been in operation since 1997, continues to expand in size, is heavily
used, and is highly regarded by its patrons. Conclusions: The digital
library is dedicated to delivering the right information at the right
time to the right person so the right decision can be made, and
therefore the Virtual Naval Hospital functions as a knowledge-management
system for the US Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery. [ABSTRACT FROM

Abstract = {As more and more educators face the impact of Web 2.0, and
as we see emerging what could be called a Learning 2.0 environment, it
becomes urgent to extend teaching to meet the literacy and learning
needs of the Net Generation. These 'new' learners and their expanding
literacy needs have major implications for current models of school
library programs which are largely focused on reading promotion and
information literacy skills. We join others in recognizing the need to
critically question long held tenets of school libraries and to create a
new research-based vision that will accord with the current economic and
social directions driving educational change. This paper contributes to
that process by proposing a framework for the work of school libraries
in new times based on research in new literacies, today's learners, and
emerging concepts of knowledge. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

trends in academic health sciences libraries (AHSLs) as they adapt to
the shift from a print knowledgebase to an increasingly digital
knowledgebase. This research was funded by the 2003 David A. Kronick
Traveling Fellowship. Methods: The author spent a day and a half
interviewing professional staff at each library. The questionnaire used
was sent to the directors of each library in advance of the visit, and
the directors picked the staff to be interviewed and set up the
schedule. Results: Seven significant trends were identified. These
trends are part of the shift of AHSLs from being facility and print
oriented with a primary focus on their role as repositories of a
print-based knowledgebase to a new focus on their role as the center or
"nexus" for the organization, access, and use of an increasingly
digital-based knowledgebase. Conclusion: This paper calls for a national

Abstract = {This article focuses on two intriguing practices to library
management theory. There are no real complexities to this approach.
Starting with basic definitions of theory, practice, and common sense,
the two management theories that have guided the author's management
practices--management by common sense and humanistic management by
teamwork--are described. Theory is defined as "a formulation of
underlying principles of certain observed phenomena which has been
verified to some degree." Practice is defined as "to do something
repeatedly so as to become proficient." Common sense is defined as "good
sense or practical judgment." A person develops common sense through
experience and repeated practices. The author started out in library
management relying on practice, that is, the practice of common sense.
The theory of participatory management encourages staff "to share their
thinking and opinions of the work and how it should be performed."

for relevance and to determine if they need updating. For most of its
lifetime (with a few exceptions when more significant revisions have
occurred), ISO 3297 has been approved without substantial revision.
However, the 2003 ISO review resulted in the decision to revise the
standard to better meet the needs of the digital environment. A Working
Group was formed in late 2003 to revise the standard and, in ISO voting
completed November 6, 2006, the revised standard was approved
unanimously. Although the assignment of separate ISSN to each medium

Abstract = {In dealing with the "serials crisis" over the years,
librarians have often called upon faculty authors and editors in other
disciplines to be more "responsible" in their publishing behaviors by,
for example, not working with journals that routinely engage in sizable
increases in subscription prices. The issuance of Declaring
Independence: A Guide to Creating Community Controlled Science Journals
by the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC) and
the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN) in 2001 provided Chaffin
with a framework for comparison of journals in library and information
science with those in other disciplines more commonly cited as culprits
in producing the "serials crisis." Comparisons of three years of data on
annual subscription prices in journals, copyright policies, and use of
alternate publishing models for library and information science,
physics, and sociology revealed no significant differences in journals
by disciplinary fields. The find},

Abstract = {Objectives: This paper explores the potential of multinomial
logistic regression analysis to perform Web usage mining for an academic
health sciences library Website. Methods: Usage of database-driven
resource gateway pages was logged for a six-month period, including
information about users' network addresses, referring uniform resource
locators (URLs), and types of resource accessed. Results: It was found
that referring URL did vary significantly by two factors: whether a user
was on-campus and what type of resource was accessed. Conclusions:
Although the data available for analysis are limited by the nature of
the Web and concerns for privacy, this method demonstrates the potential
for gaining insight into Web usage that supplements Web log analysis. It
can be used to improve the design of static and dynamic Websites today
and could be used in the design of more advanced Web systems in the
future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] },

Abstract = {Background: The Clinical Librarian (CL) Service at Brighton
was established in 2003 with the aim of providing high-quality evidence
to designated teams and fostering an evidence-based culture. Objective:
To evaluate the CL service at Brighton and discuss the implication of
the findings. Methods: A combination of internally collected data (
n = 167), and an external evaluation of the service by questionnaires (
n = 86) of users and non-users and interviews ( n = 9) of users.
Results: Internal data suggest that the service is valued by its users
and that patient care and continuing professional development are the
most common uses for searches (confirmed by the external study); that
searches generally result in some change in knowledge; and that this
knowledge is disseminated. The external study found that visibility of
the CL was crucial to the effectiveness of the role and that clinicians
used the service mostly to get access to a wider range of resources
and/or to save time. },
