Rez. in: ZfBB 52(2005) H.5, S.287-288 (D. Geiß): "Die Nutzung von Normen und technischen Regelwerken gehört in technologieorientierten Produktionsbetrieben und Handelsunternehmen zur täglichen Routine. Für viele dieser Unternehmen sind nicht nur die deutschsprachigen Regeln, sondern auch die internationalen Standards der ISO und der Europäischen Union, die nationalen technischen Regeln unserer Nachbarländer wie auch die vielseitigen fachspezifischen Regelwerke der Standardisierungsinstitute der USA unverzichtbar. Das Deutsche Institut für Normung bemüht sich auf breiter Ebene mit Hilfe und Unterstützung von 33 Ausschüssen und der Mitwirkung in internationalen Gremien das Normenwerk dem Stand der Technik anzupassen, es mit Hilfe entsprechender elektronischer Tools für ihre Kunden transparent zu machen und optimal zu erschließen. Die vorliegende DIN-Terminologiedatenbank ist ein solches Werkzeug, das die digitalen Auskunftsdienste des Deutschen Instituts für Normung erweitert und neben der Erschließung von technischen Begriffen auch eine Art bibliografisches Nachschlagewerk darstellt. Im Angebot sind 210.000 Begriffe in deutscher, englischer und zum Teil auch französischer Sprache aus DIN-Normen, DIN-Entwürfen, europäischen und international geltenden Normen sowie Begriffen aus dem IEV-Terminologiekonvolut (International Electrical Vocabulary) des IEC (International Electrical Committee). In praktischer und handlicher Form auf CD-ROM, installierbar auf jedem Laptop oder PC mit einer benutzerfreundlichen Oberfläche und einer sehr überschaubaren Kurzbedienungsanleitung sowie einem ausführlichen Handbuch im PDF-Format, bereit für eine vielseitige Nutzung im Büro,für unterwegs oder auch für die Arbeit zu Hause bietet diese CD einen echten Mehrwert. ..."

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.

Content

The ten chapters in Volume 11 are divided into 3 parts: Part One, "Information and the Community," contains two chapters to familiarize readers with various groups in the community, their information and reference needs, and how professionals attempt to serve those needs. Part Two, "Interview and Search," devotes Chapters 3 through 6 to the vital task of explaining how to isolate and understand the questions readers put to librarians as well as basic methods of finding the correct answer(s). The emphasis is an practical application of tried and true methods of interviewing and searching. Attention is given to both manual and computer searches. Chapter 6 is a guide to basic information about databases, including CD-ROMS. Part Three, "Library Instruction, Networks, Policies, and Evaluation," is comprised of the last four chapters and covers the activities of reference librarians when not responding to direct questions. This part includes hints an teaching people how to find information as well as the networks that help both librarian and user to discover what is needed. Chapter 10 discusses methods of deciding how well the individual has fulfilled the task of being a reference librarian. Only space and the fact that this text is for beginners limits what information it contains. First, many new developments and potentially important technological changes in the field of information are impossible to cover without turning to technical language and jargon quite beyond the average reader of an introductory textbook. However, basic developments are covered and explained, and there is a guide (via the footnotes and suggested readings) for those who wish to explore the future. Second, this volume is for students and working reference librarians and is intended first, foremost, and always as a pragmatic, practical approach. This is not to discount the importance of research and information science. Leaders and followers in those fields are responsible for much of what is revolutionary in references services today. There are other courses, other places where information science can be considered in depth; all that can be done here is to hint at the joy of the intellectual fields that open up to the information scientist and researcher. Students and teachers alike should be aware that much of the material covered in this book is updated, argued, and dutifully considered in several basic journals. RQ, the official voice of reference librarians of the American Library Association, excels in its coverage of the topics considered in this text. Library Journal, while more general, now offers excellent and timely articles an the new technology and its influence an librarians. The Reference Librarian, edited by the author of this text, offers specific discussions of single topics in each issue, and these have ranged from online reference services, to personnel, to problems of evaluation. And, not to be missed, is the nicely edited, always useful, and sometimes downright inspirational, References Services Review.

Rez. in: (1) FR Nr. 158 vom11.7.2003, S.14 (P. Zschunke): "Microsoft hat mit seiner Encarta, einen Monat vor der Neuauflage des Brockhaus multimedial, im Wettbewerb der elektronischen Lexika eine weitere Runde eröffnet. Die Encarta wartet jetzt mit einem "Wissenskompass" auf, der ähnliche Themen vernetzt und hilft, vertiefende Informationen zu finden. Der neue Weg, das Lexikon zu erschließen, präsentiert sich gleich zum Start in Form von Spielkarten mit ausgewählten Themen, die in einem endlosen Reigen von A bis Z über den Bildschirm ziehen. Beim Anklicken der Karte von Theodor W Adorno - der Philosoph wurde vor 100 Jahren geboren - öffnet sich ein Karussell mit 20 Themenkarten von abendländischer Philosophie über den kritischen Rationalismus bis zu Zeitgenossen wie Herbert Marcuse oder Jürgen Habermas. Die Qualität der Artikel überzeugt auch, wenn es nicht um die präzise Erklärung von Fakten, sondern um komplexere Themen wie eben Adornos Werk geht. Die Zahl der Beiträge wurde von 46300 auf mehr als 50 000 ausgeweitet; redaktionelle Mängel der vorherigen Ausgabe sind bereinigt. Gibt es zu einem Suchbegriff keinen Artikel vor, schaltet sich die Volltextsuche ein. Wenn die Encarta passen muss, verzweigt sie zur Web-Suchmaschine von Microsofts Network MSN. Die Zeitleiste startet mit der Entstehung der Trilobiten im Meer vor 570 Millionen Jahren und endet mit dem Beginn des Irak-Kriegs am 20. März. Nachträge lassen sich aus dem Internet laden. Dazu kommen Textdokumente und Artikel aus Fachzeitschriften sowie Tonbeispiele und Videosequenzen - sie sind vor allem zu Naturthemen und historischen Ereignissen interessant." - (2) Bergische Landeszeitung Nr.161 vom 15.7.2003, S.rma01a/1 (P.

Rez. in: Knowledge organization 34(2007) no.1, S.58-60 (P. Buizza): "This Nuovo soggettario is the first sign of subject indexing renewal in Italy. Italian subject indexing has been based until now on Soggettario per i cataloghi delle biblioteche italiane (Firenze, 1956), a list of preferred terms and see references, with suitable hierarchical subdivisions and cross references, derived from the subject catalogue of the National Library in Florence (BNCF). New headings later used in Bibliografia nazionale italiana (BNI) were added without references, nor indeed with any real maintenance. Systematic instructions on how to combine the terms are lacking: the indexer using this instrument is obliged to infer the order of terms absent from the lists by consulting analogous entries. Italian libraries are suffering from the limits of this subject catalogue: vocabulary is inadequate, obsolete and inconsistent, the syndetic structure incomplete and inaccurate, and the syntax ill-defined, poorly explained and unable to reflect complex subjects. In the nineties, the Subject Indexing Research Group (Gruppo di ricerca sull'indicizzazione per soggetto, GRIS) of the AIB (Italian Library Association) developed the indexing theory and some principles of PRECIS and drew up guidelines based on consistent principles for vocabulary, semantic relationships and subject string construction, the latter according to role syntax (Guida 1997). In overhauling the Soggettario, the National Library in Florence aimed at a comprehensive indexing system. (A report on the method and evolution of the work has been published in Knowledge Organization (Lucarelli 2005), while the feasibility study is available in Italian (Per un nuovo Soggettario 2002). Any usable terms from the old Soggettario will be transferred to the new system, while taking into consideration international norms and interlinguistic compatibility, as well as applications outside the immediate library context. The terms will be accessible via a suitable OPAC operating on the most advanced software.
