Abstract

This article presents an exploratory study of Blobgects, an experimental interface for an online museum catalog that enables social tagging and blogging activity around a set of cultural heritage objects held by a preeminent museum of anthropology and archaeology. This study attempts to understand not just whether social tagging and commenting about these objects is useful but rather whose tags and voices matter in presenting different expert perspectives around digital museum objects. Based on an empirical comparison between two different user groups (Canadian Inuit high-school students and museum studies students in the United States), we found that merely adding the ability to tag and comment to the museum's catalog does not sufficiently allow users to learn about or engage with the objects represented by catalog entries. Rather, the specialist language of the catalog provides too little contextualization for users to enter into the sort of dialog that proponents of Web 2.0 technologies promise. Overall, we propose a more nuanced application of Web 2.0 technologies within museums - one which provides a contextual basis that gives users a starting point for engagement and permits users to make sense of objects in relation to their own needs, uses, and understandings.

Abstract

cibera als Fachinformationsportal zum spanischen und portugiesischen Sprach-und Kulturraum haben meine Kolleginnen und ich bereits in einem zweiteiligen Bibliotheksdienst-Artikel zur Jahreswende 2005/2006 ausführlich vorgestellt. Im vorliegenden Text geht es nun darum, wie die Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Hamburg durch die Entwicklung und Umsetzung von Konzepten, die die ViFa in Richtung Web 2.0 erweitern, das Fachportal für die Wissenschaft und die interessierte Öffentlichkeit noch attraktiver gestaltet. "Mitmachweb", "Nutzer dort abholen, wo sie sind" und "Vernetzung mit der Fachcommunity" sind dabei nicht nur theoretische Stichworte, sondern in die Praxis umgesetzte Ziele einer modernen bibliothekarischen Informationsarbeit. Was erwartet Sie in diesem Artikel? Einleitend eine kurze Vorstellung von cibera, gefolgt von allgemeinen Vorüberlegungen, warum es für Virtuelle Fachbibliotheken (und sicher auch für verwandte bibliothekarische Informationsdienste) sinnvoll ist, sich mit dem Thema einer Web-2.0-Implementierung zu beschäftigen. Im Zentrum des Artikels steht dann ein Erfahrungsbericht aus der Praxis. Ein Ausblick darauf, was im Rahmen unserer Zielsetzung, cibera noch stärker mit der Fachcommunity zu vernetzen, im Verlauf des Jahres 2009 noch umgesetzt werden soll, schließt den Artikel ab. Falls Sie Interesse an detaillierteren Informationen haben sollten, hier eine wichtige Bemerkung vorneweg: Ich werde dieses Jahr am Bibliothekartag in Erfurt teilnehmen, sprechen Sie mich also im Vorfeld oder gerne auch vor Ort an, wenn Sie Fragen zu dem Thema Web 2.0 als Chance für die Virtuellen Fachbibliotheken haben.

Abstract

Through out this book we showed that Semantic Digital Libraries are no longer an abstract concept; we have presented both underlying technologies, examples of semantic digital libraries, and their applications. However, the bright future of this technology only begins, and we expect more and more genuine applications of semantic digital libraries to emerge. In this section we will spotlight on three of, in our opinion, the most promising of applications: semantic museums, eLearning 2.0, and semantic digital libraries in enterprises.

Die für die Informationsgesellschaft und die Medien zuständige EU-Kommissarin Viviane Reding sagte: »Europeana ermöglicht eine Reise über Zeiten und Grenzen hinweg und regt zu neuen Gedanken darüber an, was unsere Kultur ausmacht. Mehr noch: sie verbindet Menschen mit ihrer Geschichte und - über interaktive Seiten und Werkzeuge - miteinander. Ich rufe nun alle europäischen Kulturinstitutionen, Verlage und Technologieunternehmen auf, Europeana mit weiteren digitalen Inhalten zu füllen. Europeana sollte allen Menschen die Gelegenheit bieten, interaktiv und kreativ ihr eigenes Stück europäischer Kultur zu schaffen und es mit anderen zu teilen. Mein Ziel ist, dass Europeana im Jahr 2010 mindestens 10 Millionen Objekte enthält.« Elisabeth Niggemann, Generaldirektorin der Deutschen Nationalbibliothek und Vorsitzende der European Digital Library Foundation (der Organisation hinter Europeana), fügte hinzu: »Durch Europeana werden kulturelle Einrichtungen interessanter für die Generation Web 2.0 - eine Generation, die zur gleichen Zeit am gleichen Ort Texte lesen, Videos sehen, Laute hören und Bilder sehen möchte. Dieses vollständige Multimediaangebot bringtjungen Menschen Europas Kultur, Vergangenheit und Zukunft näher.« Europeana ermöglicht es, die digitalisierten Sammlungen europäischer Bibliotheken, Archive und Museen gleichzeitig zu durchsuchen, d. h. die Nutzer können Themen erforschen, ohne eine Vielzahl von Internetseiten besuchen oder durchsuchen zu müssen. Im Jahr 2005 von der Europäischen Kommission initiiert, wurde Europeana in enger Zusammenarbeit der Nationalbibliotheken und anderer kultureller Einrichtungen der Mitgliedstaaten sowie mit nachdrücklicher Unterstützung des Europäischen Parlaments aufgebaut. Europeana wird von der European Digital Library Foundation betrieben, in der sich die wichtigsten europäischen Verbände von Bibliotheken,Archiven, Museen, audiovisuellen Archiven und kulturellen Einrichtungen zusammengeschlossen haben. Verwaltet wird Europeana von der niederländischen Nationalbibliothek, der Koninklijke Bibliotheek. Über -.000 Kulturorganisationen aus ganz Europa, etwa der Louvre in Paris und das Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, haben Material, z. B. digitalisierte Gemälde und Objekte aus ihren Sammlungen, für Europeana bereitgestellt. Wichtige nationale Dokumente aus Staatsarchiven sind verfügbar und das Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (Frankreich) hat 80.000 Rundfunksendungen geliefert, die das gesamte 2o.Jahrhundert abdecken, angefangen mit einer Übertragung von den französischen Schlachtfeldern aus dem Jahr 1914. Nationalbibliotheken aus ganz Europa haben ferner gedrucktes und handschriftliches Material beigesteuert, darunter digitalisierte Kopien der »großen« Bücher, die der Welt neue Ideen geschenkt haben.

Abstract

Flexible organization of information is one of the key design challenges in any digital library. For the past year, we have been working with members of the National Digital Library Project (NDLP) at the Library of Congress to build an experimental system to organize and store library collections. This is a report on the work. In particular, we describe how a few technical building blocks are used to organize the material in collections, such as the NDLP's, and how these methods fit into a general distributed computing framework. The technical building blocks are part of a framework that evolved as part of the Computer Science Technical Reports Project (CSTR). This framework is described in the paper, "A Framework for Distributed Digital Object Services", by Robert Kahn and Robert Wilensky (1995). The main building blocks are: "digital objects", which are used to manage digital material in a networked environment; "handles", which identify digital objects and other network resources; and "repositories", in which digital objects are stored. These concepts are amplified in "Key Concepts in the Architecture of the Digital Library", by William Y. Arms (1995). In summer 1995, after earlier experimental development, work began on the implementation of a full digital library system based on this framework. In addition to Kahn/Wilensky and Arms, several working papers further elaborate on the design concepts. A paper by Carl Lagoze and David Ely, "Implementation Issues in an Open Architectural Framework for Digital Object Services", delves into some of the repository concepts. The initial repository implementation was based on a paper by Carl Lagoze, Robert McGrath, Ed Overly and Nancy Yeager, "A Design for Inter-Operable Secure Object Stores (ISOS)". Work on the handle system, which began in 1992, is described in a series of papers that can be found on the Handle Home Page. The National Digital Library Program (NDLP) at the Library of Congress is a large scale project to convert historic collections to digital form and make them widely available over the Internet. The program is described in two articles by Caroline R. Arms, "Historical Collections for the National Digital Library". The NDLP itself draws on experience gained through the earlier American Memory Program. Based on this work, we have built a pilot system that demonstrates how digital objects can be used to organize complex materials, such as those found in the NDLP. The pilot was demonstrated to members of the library in July 1996. The pilot system includes the handle system for identifying digital objects, a pilot repository to store them, and two user interfaces: one designed for librarians to manage digital objects in the repository, the other for library patrons to access the materials stored in the repository. Materials from the NDLP's Coolidge Consumerism compilation have been deposited into the pilot repository. They include a variety of photographs and texts, converted to digital form. The pilot demonstrates the use of handles for identifying such material, the use of meta-objects for managing sets of digital objects, and the choice of metadata. We are now implementing an enhanced prototype system for completion in early 1997.

Abstract

For most museums, online access to their collections is still a challenge. In museum databases, descriptions include descriptive metadata, along with other information that is often irrelevant to the public. Information that would help users to navigate from an object to one sharing similar characteristics is often absent. The conceptual model developed by the International Committee for Documentation, CIDOC-CRM, which provides a formal structure for linking museum objects, is still not widely adopted by institutions, due to its complexity. This project aims to provide a simpler model that could be more easily adopted. For this phase of the project, a sample of 266 Canadian museums with humanities collections (archaeology, ethnology, history, fine and decorative arts) was identified. It is composed of every museum that, during the fall of 2016, was offering to the public at least a part of its collection online. From each museum, a minimum of ten objects was selected, ensuring that the variety of the collections was represented, and extracted the metadata used in the object descriptions. This inventory, which aimed to provide a comprehensive picture of what museums already offer in terms of metadata associated to their online collections, exposed a lack of standardization and interoperability.

Abstract

The Alexandria Digital Library (ADL) was established in the late 1990s as a response to several perceived problems of traditional map libraries, notably access and organization. By 1999 it had evolved into an operational digital library, offering a well-defined set of services to a broad user community, based on an extensive collection of georeferenced information objects. The vision of ADL continues to evolve, as technology makes new services possible, as its users become more sophisticated and demanding, and as the broader field of geographic information science (GIScience) identifies new avenues for research and application.

Abstract

The German Internet Clearinghouse SocioGuide has changed to a database management system. Accordingly the metadata description scheme has become more detailed. The main information types are: institutions, persons, literature, tools, data sets, objects, topics, processes and services. Some of the description elements, such as title, resource identifier, and creator are universal, whereas others, such as primary/secondary information, and availability are specific to information type and cannot be generalized by referring to Dublin Core elements. The quality of Internet sources is indicated implicitly by characteristics, such as extent, restriction, or status. The SocioGuide is managed in DBClear, a generic system that can be adapted to different source types. It makes distributed input possible and contains workflow components.

Abstract

This article describes two approaches for searching heterogeneous resources, which are explained as they are used in two corresponding existing systems-RIRS (Resource Integration Retrieval System) and HRUSP (Heterogeneous Resource Union Search Platform). On analyzing the existing systems, a possible framework-the MUSP (Multimetadata-Based Union Search Platform) is presented. Libraries now face a dilemma. On one hand, libraries subscribe to many types of database retrieval systems that are produced by various providers. The libraries build their data and information systems independently. This results in highly heterogeneous and distributed systems at the technical level (e.g., different operating systems and user interfaces) and at the conceptual level (e.g., the same objects are named using different terms). On the other hand, end users want to access all these heterogeneous data via a union interface, without having to know the structure of each information system or the different retrieval methods used by the systems. Libraries must achieve a harmony between information providers and users. In order to bridge the gap between the service providers and the users, it would seem that all source databases would need to be rebuilt according to a uniform data structure and query language, but this seems impossible. Fortunately, however, libraries and information and technology providers are now making an effort to find a middle course that meets the requirements of both data providers and users. They are doing this through resource integration.
