Abstract

Considers the challenge to professional indexers posed by the Internet. Indexing and searching on the Internet appears to have a retrograde step, as well developed and efficient information retrieval techniques have been replaced by cruder techniques, involving automatic keyword indexing and frequency ranking, leading to large retrieval sets and low precision. This is made worse by the apparent acceptance of this poor perfromance by Internet users and the feeling, on the part of indexers, that they are being bypassed by the producers of these hyperlinked menus and search engines. Key issues are: how far 'human' indexing will still be required in the Internet environment; how indexing techniques will have to change to stay relevant; and the future role of indexers. The challenge facing indexers is to adapt their skills to suit the online environment and to convince publishers of the need for efficient indexes on the Internet

Abstract

The Nordic WAIS/WWW project sponsored by NORDINFO is a joint project between Lund University Library and the National Technological Library of Denmark. It aims to improve the existing networked information discovery and retrieval tools Wide Area Information System (WAIS) and World Wide Web (WWW), and to move towards unifying WWW and WAIS. Details current results focusing on the WAIS side of the project. Describes research into automatic indexing and classification of WAIS sources, development of an orientation tool for WAIS, and development of a WAIS index of WWW resources

Abstract

As the amount of accessible information on the WWW increases, so will the cost of accessing it, even if search servcies remain free, due to the increasing amount of time users will have to spend to find needed items. Considers what the seemingly unorganized Web and the organized world of libraries can offer each other. The OCLC Scorpion Project is attempting to combine indexing and cataloguing, specifically focusing on building tools for automatic subject recognition using the technqiues of library science and information retrieval. If subject headings or concept domains can be automatically assigned to electronic items, improved filtering tools for searching can be produced
