Abstract

Reports results of a questionnaire survey, the main purpose of which was to study and understand library users' perceptions of reference librarians' body language and its influence on the users' satisfaction of the reference interviews. The aim was to improve the overall quality of reference services. The study was undertaken in the National Yang-Ming University Library and involved 162 data samples. Describes the statistical methods used and the content analysis applied to the analysis of the data. Findings indicate that users prefer librarians' to adopt an approachable mode: arms relaxed; frequent eye contact; greeting users with a smile; hands unoccupied, and with appropriate hand gestures. Contrarily, preoccupation mode: with arms crossed; frowning; and hands busy with work; conveys an unfriendly message to library users. Concludes that the findings could be a valuable tool for reference librarians to develop their interviewing techniques in terms of body language and so improve the quality of referecne services

Abstract

Attempts to circumscribe 'information' by means of etymology and the semantics of Chinese characters rather than the traditional way, and also to define several other terms related to information. Discusses the characteristics of information and its movement, and reviews some issues about information science. Information science recognizes information and uses it for making decisions and solving problems. Yi-Jeng (the Book of Changes), the oldest book about the world system, not only explains the relationship between human beings and the universe, but also focuses on how to recognize and use information to improve quality of life and avoid calamity. Derives some conclusions useful for the development of information science from Yi-Jeng. Also discusses the chaotic state caused by rapidly developing networks without a precise concept. Considers some desirable characteristics for the design of information service systems

Abstract

In order to test the power of metadata on information retrieval, an experiment was designed and conducted on a group of 7 graduate students using the Dublin Core as the cataloguing metadata. Results show that, on average, the retrieval error rate is only 2.9 per cent for the MES system (http://140.136.85.194), which utilizes the Dublin Core to describe the documents on the World Wide Web, in contrast to 20.7 per cent for the 7 famous search engines including HOTBOT, GAIS, LYCOS, EXCITE, INFOSEEK, YAHOO, and OCTOPUS. The very low error rate indicates that the users can use the information of the Dublin Core to decide whether to retrieve the documents or not

Abstract

Capability and capacity in handling the topology of a special subject information field has made infomapping techniques and systems instrumental in information searching, monitoring and navigation. Applying the technique to communication networks can reveal the intellectual relationships among junior and senior researchers in the field, and can also show the continuing popularity of a particular researcher's citation record over time. Reports the use of Java in making a cartoon series of chronological maps based on citation analysis on a special subject field (nutrition and dietetics). The map making methods, Java programming, and statistical analysis of the map data are presented, and the advantage and significance of constructing Java maps in enhancing information retrieval discussed. Further technical developments in applying VRML to link together a 3-D spatial indexing system and a 2-D HTML Web site are suggested
