Abstract

In 1989 Brabant Catholic University was the first university in the Netherlands to provide an online campus information service. Since that date other universities in the Netherlands have inaugurated systems providing a wide range of information services, including access to the respective library's catalogues. Ease of use varies from system to system and there is an urgent need to standardize system commands. Libraries can provide useful help in creating such services. In return ther services provide a useful adjunct to the organization's library

Abstract

Because of the individual character of museums the use of online catalogues to describe objects in the collections in the Netherlands has lagged behind that of libraries. In 1993 the MIRO (Museale Informatieverzorgingen Registratie Opleidingen) project was inaugurated to identify probllem areas and devise solutions. The project identified 4 areas for which training is required for museum staff: description of objects, compilation of indexes, automation in museums, and the use of multimedia systems. Following the project's report the Dutch government has dedicated extra funds for museum automation

Abstract

In the Netherlands updated versions of the Vindex and Zoek search engines have been released. Vindex indexes sites originating in the Netherlands and us currently undergoing a 6-month trial period. In both search engines help for users is unclear whilst truncation practice in Zoek is unhelpful. However, Zoek offers a range of options including ranking of topics. Display of search results is excellent

Abstract

Reply to an article by B. Schaap and W. Dussel in Bibliotheek en samenleving 19(1990) no.4, in which it is suggested that the SISO classification used in adult sections of Dutch public libraries, may be adapted for use in children's libraries. However, experience shows that SISO's highly-structured nater makes it difficult for both adults and children to understand. Moreover, because related aspects of the same subject are scattered throughout the scheme's main categories, the user must first understand how to use a library's cataloue. However, a more useful system is to arrange books in broad categories according to children's interests, e.g. football and horses. To enable sucha method to succeed public libraries and school resource centres must agree a common scheme

Abstract

The universal classification schemes developed in the 19th century are a direct response to the social changes of that era. However, the increasing use of automation in libraries has highlighted the need fir greater precision in hierarchical structures. A thesaurus of used and related headings can be employed to show the spatial relationship of semantic terms. The resulting search profile can be further enhanced by the addition of citation weighting. To assist users to define searches more accurately libraries using large general classification schemes should consider adding supplementary classification data to records

Abstract

A survey of the literature shows that little is known of how reference enquiries are answered in libraries and how far answers satisfy readers' needs. To remedy this situation a survey was held in 15 academic libraries in the Netherlands. Survey results show that the traditional approach to reference service was the norm despite the need for a more flexible approach. Follow up studies showed that reference satff often lacked in-depth subject knowledge. A national programme is required to provide training and exchange of expertise

Abstract

Amstelveen Public Library in the Netherlands introduced the online Kid's Catalog in 1997 to enable young users to access the library's catalogue. The system was developed in the United States and has been translated into Dutch for use in Amstelveen. The system enables users to access the catalogue through a menu of icons or by typing in author, title and subject headings. The system can recognise typing errors and offer corrected headings. The system is extremely popular both with children and adults

Abstract

Until comparatively recently archive collections in local and provincial authorities in Belgium were largely concerned with preserving the output of official organisations. As a result the transactions of local societies, including political organisations, are lacking in such collections. Because of its role as the first political party in the country the Liberal Party's headquarters in Antwerp contains a range of material and national significance. A scheme has been devised to arrange the archive, which may prove useful for other collections

Abstract

In an attempt to reduce administrative costs a survey was undertaken in 1992 of the opportunities for cooperation in governmant libraries in the Netherlands. The survey concentrated on shared cataloguing and subject indexing of periodical articles. The study showed that subject interests varied to much from library to make cooperation cost-effective. Moreover, as too few records were likely to be obtained from the Dutch online union catalogue it was decided that a cooperative network was not feasible

Abstract

In 1992 the universities of Groningen, Leiden, Utrecht and Tilburg in the Netherlands participated in a study sponsored by the SURF Foundation to examine the feasibility of document digitisation and transmission. The study revealed a lack of use of the technology and highlighted the problems of copyright. As a result of the preliminary study the SURFdoc project was initiated in March 1993 to promote cooperation and examine readers' reactions to such systems. The project has revealed the need for a reorganisation of interlibrary lending

Abstract

Multimedia databases started to appear on the market in 1989. They are computer databases combining a number of features, including text, images, sound and video, and may appear in CD-ROM, CD-I, floppy disk, or videodisc format. Examples of multimedia products are games, instructional programs, and refrence materials. A study of such media in the Netherlands revealed the limitations of search facilities and the difficulty of reading large amounts of text on screen. Multimedia publishers will need to overcome these problems in order to stand any chance of success

Abstract

A survey of catalogue use in 1993 at Utrecht University in the Netherlands showed considerable dissatisfaction with the online catalogue's subject search facilities. Of those who used subject searching 64% preferred subject headings against only 2% who chose classification schedules. Library users make little use of the existing facilities for assistance and leaflets which are available in the library. It has, therefore, been decided to provide a programme of instruction in library use and to move towards a unified system of subject access to the library's catalogue

Abstract

Analyses the concepts species, class and set to explain the development of generic arrangement beginning with Aristotle's theory of essences. Explains the development from Aristotelian essences to the acceptance of accidental characteristics, culminating in the logical algebra of Boole and in a distinction between classes (as the extension of a concept) and sets (as a grouping of elements). Discusses 2 problems relating to indexing theory, selected from PRECIS and the work of Das Gupta

Abstract

Arjo Klamer, professor of the economics of art and culture at Rotterdam's Erasmus University, was involved in the government-sponsored national debate on the place of knowledge in tomorrow's society. Klamer believes that changes in society will require a system of continuing training for its citizens. Klamer believes that libraries are ideally suited to fulfil this role and urges librarians to accept the challenge. He warns that current trends towards implementing market-oriented library services will attract competitors into undercutting libraries

Abstract

As a result of the growing pace of developments in the electronic information industry the EC Commission invited applications for the creation of a data base of producers and their services. Tha contract was awarded to the European Information Industry Association, which in collaboration with ECHO (European Commission Host Organisation) has created the I'M GUIDE (Information Market Guide) service. Information on the products, services and manufacturer is contributed by a network of correspondents. The data bank is updated fortnightly and contains more than 4.000 references. The system is available for online access 24 hours daily. It offers natural language searching in English, french and Italian and a menu-driven system in the 9 EC languages

Abstract

In May 80 the joint working parties on the Dutch National Bibliography and the Dutch National Bibliographical Centre published their final report containing proposals for a national bibliography in the Netherlands based on Brinkmann's catalogue of books. In view of the limited number of terms used in the subject index of Brinkmann's catalogue it was proposed to adopt the thesaurus of headings developed by the Netherlands Bibliotheek en Lektuur Centrum with the addition of UDC and SISO classification numbers to each entry. A test-run has identified a core of some 3.500 headings which will be input into the database to provide a subject index to the bibliography. The system will become operational on 1 Jan 81
