    Abstract
    This study examines the differences between Scopus and Web of Science in the citation counting, citation ranking, and h-index of 22 top human-computer interaction (HCI) researchers from EQUATOR - a large British Interdisciplinary Research Collaboration project. Results indicate that Scopus provides significantly more coverage of HCI literature than Web of Science, primarily due to coverage of relevant ACM and IEEE peer-reviewed conference proceedings. No significant differences exist between the two databases if citations in journals only are compared. Although broader coverage of the literature does not significantly alter the relative citation ranking of individual researchers, Scopus helps distinguish between the researchers in a more nuanced fashion than Web of Science in both citation counting and h-index. Scopus also generates significantly different maps of citation networks of individual scholars than those generated by Web of Science. The study also presents a comparison of h-index scores based on Google Scholar with those based on the union of Scopus and Web of Science. The study concludes that Scopus can be used as a sole data source for citation-based research and evaluation in HCI, especially when citations in conference proceedings are sought, and that researchers should manually calculate h scores instead of relying on system calculations.

    Rez. in: Mathematical intelligencer 27(2005) no.2, S.80-81 (J.P. Ladwig u. E.B. Williams): "This book deals with the basic tools and skills needed in the mathematical laboratory." It is written not only for librarians, but more importantly for undergraduates doing mathematical research, for graduate students, and for faculty exploring new areas. This is the 66th volume of Dekker's Books in Library and Information Science. It is divided into two parts, "Tools and Strategies," and "Recommended Reading by Subject," and it has two indexes: author and subject. The first place a seasoned mathematician is likely to browse is Part II, "Recommended Readings by Subject," just to check the list of resources for his or her subject. The subjects included are: History of mathematics Number theory Combinatorics Abstract algebra Algebraic and differential geometry Real and complex analysis Differential equations Topology Probability theory and stochastic processes Numerical analysis Mathematical biology Mathematics education NOTE: We understand from the editor that contributors for other subjects (like mathematical logie) would have been welcome. Each subject is given a chapter written by a mathematician and/or a mathematics librarian. Each entry gives enough information to locate and even order the resource, and often a one- or two-sentence description. The emphasis is an books, but key journals and on-line resources are also indicated. The chapters generally contain an introduction, a section an general sources, and then sections for the major subdivisions of a field. Sections often refer to general texts, and then further refine the subdivision. For example, the chapter an topology by Alan Hatcher contains a section an introductory books, then sections an algebraic topology, manifold theory, low-dimensional topology, history, and other resources. The section an manifold theory, for example, discusses differential topology, piecewise-linear topology, topological manifolds, and surgery theory.

    Abstract
    In the late 1950s Dr. J.C.R Licklider observed that most of his time as a researcher was spent an getting into a position to think, and not an creative thinking as such. "Much more time went into finding or obtaining information than into digesting it." (see Howard Reingold: "Tools for Thought-The History and Future of Mind-Expanding Technology", The MIT Press, Cambridge Massachusetts 2000, p133). A few years later Licklider became the director of ARPA, the research organization that initiated the forerunner to todays Internet, the ARPAnet. Licklider's observation might be seen as a general justification for the development of any research infrastructure, including the Internet. The overriding goal of a research infrastructure is to facilitate the maximization of the time spent an digesting and thinking over the time spent an finding and accessing. However, even today nearly 50 years after Licklider's observation and about 10 years after the invention of the World Wide Web, comparative social science research in Europe is hampered by the fragmentation of the scientific information space. Data, information and knowledge are scattered in space and divided by language and institutional barriers. As a consequence too much of the research are based an data from a single nation, carried out by a single-nation team of researcher and communicated to a single-nation audience. The state of affairs is preventing the development of a comparative and cumulative research process integrating and nurturing the entire European Research Area. Yesterday's answers to these challenges would probably have been formulated in terms of centralization and establishment of large-scale European-wide institutions. Today's answers should rather focus an the power of emerging information technologies to encourage communication, sharing and collaboration across spatially dispersed but scientifically related communities.

    Abstract
    Literaturflut. Medizinische Forschung gibt es nicht nur in Forschungsinstituten mit vielerlei Spezialgebieten wie Vergiftungen, Krebsforschung, Zellbiologie usw., sondern auch in Universitätsklinika, Spezialkliniken und nicht zuletzt in der pharmazeutischen Industrie. Ärzte sind fleißige Schreiber, die auch über Kasuistiken, retrospektive Auswertungen der Krankenakten, prospektive Erhebungen, klinische Studien und natürlich auch über vielerlei Laborforschung, Versuche mit Zellkulturen und über Tierversuche berichten. Hinzu kommt Literatur von Institutionen und Firmen, die Medizingeräte (z.B. Beatmungsgeräte, Narkosegeräte, chirurgisches Instrumentarium, Röntgengeräte usw.) oder Medizinprodukte (z.B. Verbandsmaterial, Prothesen, Nahtmaterial, orthopädische Hilfen) herstellen. Vermutlich ist die Literaturflut in der Medizin größer als in jedem anderen Fachgebiet. Datenbasen und Datenbanken. Die derzeit wichtigsten Datenbasen für die medizinische Literaturdokumentation sind MEDLINE der US National Library of Medicine (siehe Glossar), BIOSIS, hergestellt von BIOSciences Information Service, EMBASE, hergestellt von Elsevier Science B.V. sowie eine ganze Reihe von Datenbasen mit Spezialgebieten wie z.B. TOXLINE. Der wichtigste Anbieter medizinischer Datenbanken in Deutschland ist das Deutsche Institut für Medizinische Dokumentation und Information (DIMDI) in Köln, das 90 Datenbanken mit zusammen über 100 Millionen Dokumenten anbietet. Die Bedeutung der medizinischen Literatur zeigt sich auch am Science Citation Index (SCI). Im SCI sind 2345 medizinische Zeitschriften erfasst. Das sind 39% aller 6073 vom SCI erfassten naturwissenschaftlichen Zeitschriften. Nimmt man den Social-SCI mit 1798 Zeitschriften und den Art and Humanities-CI mit 1133 Zeitschriften noch hinzu, so haben die medizinischen Zeitschriften immer noch einen Anteil von 26%. Hinzu kommt, dass medizinische Zeitschriften meist mehr Hefte pro Jahr und dickere Hefte haben als die Zeitschriften anderer Fachgebiete.

    Abstract
    Vorbemerkung: zur aktuellen Problematik im Zeitschriftenwesen Derzeit kann auf einschlägigen Fachveranstaltungen und Expertlnnentagungen oftmals (großteils berechtigte) Kritik am Verlags- und Zeitschriftenwesen vernommen werden. Mitunter werden regelrechte Zeitschriftenkrisen oder gar Informationskrisen ausgerufen, um im Anschluss daran auch gleich passende Auswege aufzuzeigen. Solche Geschütze werden hier nicht aufgefahren, doch soll mit Rückgriff auf Harnad u.a. (2004) kurz ein Schlaglicht auf die existierende Problematik im Zeitschriftenwesen geworfen werden. Einerseits leiden Bibliotheken unter dem so genannten Preisproblem (journal-affordability problem), womit gemeint ist, dass es aufgrund der Preisentwicklung wissenschaftlicher Zeitschriften für Bibliotheken zunehmend schwieriger wird, diese gedruckt oder elektronisch zu erwerben. Verbunden mit knapper werdenden Ressourcen sind hier Engpässe in der Informationsversorgung unvermeidlich. Daraus resultiert eine zweite Facette dieser Problemlage, nämlich dass - aus der Autorlnnensicht - viel an potentiellem Impact aufgrund der Nichtverfügbarkeit der Forschungsliteratur ungenutzt bleibt (article-access/impact problem). Als Impact wird dabei das Ausmaß der Rezeption der Forschungsergebnisse in der Scientific Community definiert. Viel spricht dafür, dass Open Access tatsächlich als möglicher Lösungsweg für diese beiden unterschiedlichen, aber zusammenhängenden Problemlagen gesehen werden kann. In diesem Artikel wird deshalb kurz aufgezeigt, was man unter Open Access versteht; anschließend wird das Volltextarchiv E-LIS: E-Prints in Library and Information Science etwas genauervorgestellt. Wir sind nämlich der Meinung, dass BibliothekarInnen und Informationsexpertinnen Open Access nicht nur bewerben und einfordern, sondern selbst mit gutem Beispiel vorangehen und deshalb möglichst alle ihre bibliotheks- und informationswissenschaftlichen Schriften entsprechend publizieren sollten.

    Abstract
    This illustrates a stark reality of the Web. There are many resources for environmental content, but there is no central repository of authoritative information that meets the needs of diverse user communities. The Encyclopedia of Earth aims to fill that niche by providing content that is both free and reliable. Still in its infancy, the EoE already is an integral part of the emerging effort to increase free and open access to trusted information on the Web. It is a trusted content source for authoritative indexes such as the Online Access to Research in the Environment Initiative, the Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative, the Open Education Resources Commons, Scirus, DLESE, WiserEarth, among others. Our initial Content Partners include the American Institute of Physics, the University of California Museum of Paleontology, TeacherServe®, the U.S. Geological Survey, the International Arctic Science Committee, the World Wildlife Fund, Conservation International, the Biodiversity Institute of Ontario, and the United Nations Environment Programme, to name just a few. The full partner list here can be found at <http://www.eoearth.org/article/Content_Partners>. We have a diversity of article types including standard subject articles, biographies, place-based entries, country profiles, and environmental classics. We recently launched our E-Book series, full-text, fully searchable books with internal hyperlinks to EoE articles. The eBooks include new releases by distinguished scholars as well as classics such as Walden and On the Origin of Species. Because history can be an important guide to the future, we have added an Environmental Classics section that includes such historical works as Energy from Fossil Fuels by M. King Hubbert and Undersea by Rachel Carson. Our services and features will soon be expanded. The EoE will soon be available in different languages giving a wider range of users access, users will be able to search it geographically or by a well-defined, expert created taxonomy, and teachers will be able to use the EoE to create unique curriculum for their courses.

    Abstract
    Wikipedia (the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit) is having a huge impact on how a great many people gather information about the world. So, it is important for epistemologists and information scientists to ask whether people are likely to acquire knowledge as a result of having access to this information source. In other words, is Wikipedia having good epistemic consequences? After surveying the various concerns that have been raised about the reliability of Wikipedia, this article argues that the epistemic consequences of people using Wikipedia as a source of information are likely to be quite good. According to several empirical studies, the reliability of Wikipedia compares favorably to the reliability of traditional encyclopedias. Furthermore, the reliability of Wikipedia compares even more favorably to the reliability of those information sources that people would be likely to use if Wikipedia did not exist (viz., Web sites that are as freely and easily accessible as Wikipedia). In addition, Wikipedia has a number of other epistemic virtues (e.g., power, speed, and fecundity) that arguably outweigh any deficiency in terms of reliability. Even so, epistemologists and information scientists should certainly be trying to identify changes (or alternatives) to Wikipedia that will bring about even better epistemic consequences. This article suggests that to improve Wikipedia, we need to clarify what our epistemic values are and to better understand why Wikipedia works as well as it does. Somebody who reads Wikipedia is rather in the position of a visitor to a public restroom, says Mr. McHenry, Britannica's former editor. It may be obviously dirty, so that he knows to exercise great care, or it may seem fairly clean, so that he may be lulled into a false sense of security. What he certainly does not know is who has used the facilities before him. One wonders whether people like Mr. McHenry would prefer there to be no public lavatories at all.

    Abstract
    Thomson ISI has announced the Century of Science initiative. Currently, Web of Science coverage extends to 1945. The Century of Science initiative will expand the Web of Science to include bibliographic data from the highest impact scientific literature published between 1944 and 1900, adding nearly 850,000 articles from approximately 200 journals. The jour-nals have been carefully selected by the Thomson ISI editorial team, based an such criteria as citation patterns, geographic origin, and meaningful balance across scientific disciplines. The Century of Science initiative will extend through 2004, with the new material available to customers in 2005. Using the historical data that will be available, researchers will be able to track published research concepts retrospectively back to the beginning of the 20th century and consequently develop a greater understanding of prior developments. Currently, Web of Science indexes approximately 8,500 scholarly journals, providing users with complete bibliographic data, searchable author abstracts, and cited references. Web of Science is a key component of ISI Web of Knowledge, the single Web environment from which researchers can access, analyze, and manage information. Thomson ISI (http: //www.thomsonisi.com) is a business of Thomson Scientific, part of The Thomson Corp. [Die Kosten für den Kauf der ISI Backfiles würden sich für ein österreichisches Konsortium auf USD 800.000,-, zahlbar in drei Jahresraten, belaufen. Anm. d. Red.]
