    Abstract
    Libraries pay considerable attention to the creation, preservation, and transformation of descriptive metadata in both MARC and non-MARC formats. Little evidence suggests that they devote as much time, energy, and financial resources to the ongoing maintenance of non-MARC metadata, especially with regard to updating and editing existing descriptive content, as they do to maintenance of such information in the MARC-based online public access catalog. In this paper, the authors introduce a model, derived loosely from J. A. Zachman's framework for information systems architecture, with which libraries can identify and inventory components of catalog or metadata maintenance and plan interdepartmental, even interinstitutional, workflows. The model draws on the notion that the expertise and skills that have long been the hallmark for the maintenance of libraries' catalog data can and should be parlayed towards metadata maintenance in a broader set of information delivery systems.

    Abstract
    This paper reviews the enormous changes in cataloging and classification reflected in the literature of 2003 and 2004, and discusses major themes and issues. Traditional cataloging and classification tools have been re-vamped and new resources have emerged. Most notable themes are: the continuing influence of the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Control (FRBR); the struggle to understand the ever-broadening concept of an "information entity"; steady developments in metadata-encoding standards; and the globalization of information systems, including multilinguistic challenges.

    Abstract
    Debate about the future of library catalogs and cataloging has been, and continues to be, featured in the literature of librarianship. Some research into the ways undergraduate students at one institution assign subjects to selected works provides insight into the cognitive elements of categorization. The design of catalogs can be informed by this research, as well as work currently being done on alternative means of organization, such as information systems ontologies.

    Abstract
    An Internet survey of 38 different OPAC systems, at eighty different libraries, was undertaken to investigate the effect on retrieval of the presence of the hyphen or the ampersand in titles. Title and Keyword searches were performed. In Title search, 22 of the systems treat the hyphen as equivalent to a space, while in Keyword the number is 16. The other systems treat it in various different ways (even including the equivalent of NOT), which means that results of searching multiple catalogs are very inconsistent. The ampersand may be ignored, treated as a special character, or treated as "and," again with very inconsistent results. Various recommendations are made with a view to improving consistency of performance.

    Abstract
    Information seeking is a fundamental human activity. In the modern world, it is frequently conducted through interactions with search systems. The retrieval and comprehension of information returned by these systems is a key part of decision making and action in a broad range of settings. Advances in data availability coupled with new interaction paradigms, and mobile and cloud computing capabilities, have created a broad range of new opportunities for information access and use. In this comprehensive book for professionals, researchers, and students involved in search system design and evaluation, search expert Ryen White discusses how search systems can capitalize on new capabilities and how next-generation systems must support higher order search activities such as task completion, learning, and decision making. He outlines the implications of these changes for the evolution of search evaluation, as well as challenges that extend beyond search systems in areas such as privacy and societal benefit.

    Abstract
    Examines the future for catalogues and cataloguers. Traces developments over the last decade: automation, networks, search and retrieve protocols and pwerful new PCs, which have forced and enabled massive cataloguing changes. Librarians have been good at adapting to new situations, but they have not accepted the standards developed for manual systems are not always applicable to today's automated systems. Discusses how new standards and systems can be developed to be of more relevance. Cataloguers need to be aware of the increasing digitization of material, and its impact in research and libraries, and be prepared to play their part in developing new information retrieval systems

    Abstract
    Examines the future of the cataloguer in an increasingly electronic environment arguing that this future will depend on adopting a more holistic approach that broadens the concept from cataloguing to the organization of information. If the goal of libraries is to provide access to information it is the organizational tools created by cataloguers that help meet this goal. Cataloguers must be aware of the potential uses of information and how it may be exploited and administrators must capitalize on cataloguers' expertise when information systems based on their work are developed

    Abstract
    If the public library catalogue is to continue to have relevance to its users, it needs to move beyond its current inventory model, where all content is designed and controlled by library staff and client interaction with catalogue content is limited, to a social catalogue, where users can contribute to, and interact with information and with each other. The goal of this report is to present the results of an analysis of four months worth of log analysis of two social discovery systems used in two Canadian public libraries to examine: (a) how public library users interact with social discovery systems; (b) how usage compares between the two social discovery systems; and (c) whether the use of the features in social discovery systems is consistent over time. Results suggest that clients are making limited use of the social features of the system that allow them to interact with the catalogue records and with one another.

    Abstract
    Extensive literatures exist on information searching theory and techniques, as well as on the Bradford Distribution. This distribution, also known as "Bradford's Law of Scattering," tells us that information on a subject is dispersed in a characteristic and robust pattern that appears consistently across many different environments. This pattern may be expected to have important implications for information searching theory and techniques. Yet these two research literatures are rarely considered in relation to each other. It is the purpose of this article to distinguish three Bradford regions and speculate on the optimum searching techniques for each region. In the process, browsing, directed searching in databases, and the pursuit of various forms of links will all be considered. Implications of growth in size of a literature for optimal information organization and searching will also be addressed.

    Abstract
    This article first compares and contrasts the essential, fundamental differences between traditional and digital information mediums. It then reexamines the role of the online public access catalog (OPAC), refines the definition of library's catalog, and advocates the addition of Internet resources within the OPAC. Next, the article describes the building of the Alex Catalog, a catalog of Internet resources in the in the form of MARC records. Finally, this article outlines a process of integrating the futher inclusion of other Internet resources into OPACs as well as some of the obstacles such a process manifests.

    Abstract
    Theses and dissertations as electronic files transferred from the student author to the Graduate School to the Library may well be the first major source of electronic texts that many libraries encounter. To prepare for this potential influx of electronic texts, an ad hoc task force considered work flow and cataloging guidelines. The author suggests expanding current theses cataloging and taking advantage of online information prepared by authors so that the bibliographic records provide OPACS with much more valuable information than does traditional theses cataloging. This should not require a lot of extra work.

    Abstract
    Popular commercial on-line services such as Google, e-Bay, Amazon, and Netflix have evolved quickly over the last decade to help people find what they want, developing information retrieval strategies such as usefully ranked results, spelling correction, and recommender systems. Online library catalogs (OPACs), in contrast, have changed little and are notoriously difficult for patrons to use (University of California Libraries, 2005). Over the past year (June 2005 to the present), the Melvyl Recommender Project (California Digital Library, 2005) has been exploring methods and feasibility of closing the gap between features that library patrons want and have come to expect from information retrieval systems and what libraries are currently equipped to deliver. The project team conducted exploratory work in five topic areas: relevance ranking, auto-correction, use of a text-based discovery system, user interface strategies, and recommending. This article focuses specifically on the recommending portion of the project and potential extensions to that work.

    Abstract
    Works are key entities in the universe of recorded knowledge. Works are those deliberate creations (known variously as opera, oeuvres, Werke, etc.) that constitute individual sets of created conceptions that stand as the formal records of knowledge. In the information retrieval domain, the work as opposed to the document, has only recently received focused attention. In this paper, the definition of the work as an entity for information retrieval is examined. A taxonomic definition (that is, a definition built around a taxonomy) is presented. An epistemological perspective aids in understanding the components of the taxonomic definition. Works, thus defined as entities for information retrieval, are seen to constitute sets of varying instantiations of abstract creations. These variant instantiations must be explicitly identified in future systems for documentary information retrieval. An expanded perception of works, such as that presented in this paper, helps us understand the variety of ways in which mechanisms for their control and retrieval might better be shaped in future.

    Abstract
    Diese Einführung in die moderne Katalogkunde ist nicht nur für angehende Bibliothekare und Angehörige informationsbezogener Berufe gedacht, sie gilt auch allen interessierten Laien, die sich für eine professionelle Nutzung von Katalogen, insbesondere solchen in Form von Online-Datenbanken, im Bibliotheksbereich interessieren. Die Bibliothek ist eine Einrichtung zur Orientierung in einer Publikationsflut; aber nicht nur in Form einer «Positiv-Auswahl»: Sie stellt auch Information bereit, die man nach kurzer Prüfung verwirft oder die im Laufe des wissenschaftlichen Fortschritts falsifiziert wurde. Sie ist so auch Staumauer zur Eindämmung der Informationsüberflutung des Einzelnen, unabhängig vom aktuellen Nachfrage- oder Marktgeschehen. Insofern war sie auch immer eine Abwehr gegen Schund - und sei es nur durch dessen erbarmungsloser Dokumentation, und Bestandteil eines Controlling gegen schlechte und überflüssige Wissenschaft. Es ist daher auch die zentrale Aufgabe einer Katalogisierung, dazu beizutragen. Noch deutlicher gesagt, ist es weniger die Aufgabe der Bibliothekskataloge, uns zu zeigen, was wir alles lesen können, das sind allein etwa 100 Mio. verschiedene Buchtitel, es ist vielmehr ihre Aufgabe uns zu zeigen, was wir alles nicht lesen müssen, weil es bessere Quellen gibt. Diese Zeitersparnis ist insbesondere im Wettbewerb um das neu zu entdeckende Wissen in der Wissenschaft das höchste Gut, das wir haben, und Wissenschaft würde ohne diese Hilfe unbezahlbar. Es sei an eine mittlerweile rund 50 Jahre alte Maxime des großen indischen Bibliothekars und Bibliothekswissenschaftlers S.R. RANGANATHAN erinnert, die er (etwas irreführend) als ein «Gesetz der Bibliothekswissenschaft» bezeichnete: «Save the time of the reader. » Es ist aber auch für den Leser von Belletristik, für die Auswahl von Videofilmen oder Kinderbüchern nicht weniger wichtig, was man liest. So zitiert A. v. Harnack keinen geringeren als Leibniz mit den Worten «man weis, was bisweilen ein baar Bücher für Schaden gethan!'»
    Lesen hat mit Bildung zunächst nichts zu tun, es kommt darauf an, was man liest, und das wird nicht zuletzt von Katalogen beeinflusst. Wenn hier von Bibliotheken und Katalogen die Rede ist, mag der Leser und die Leserin bei Ersterem unwillkürlich an konkrete papierene Objekte denken, nämlich Bücher. Die Zahl derer hingegen, die mit «Katalog» Karteikarten verbinden, wird schon viel bescheidener ausfallen, denn wir benutzen heute selbstverständlich elektronische Datenbanken als Kataloge. Aber ebenso selbstverständlich gibt es nicht den geringsten systematischen Grund, im Folgenden digitale Bibliotheken auszuschließen. Im einfachsten Fall liegen zu den bibliographischen Informationen in einer Datenbank zugleich die zugehörigen Buchtexte vor, in welcher konkreten Form auch immer. Die Bibliothekare von heute haben es mit einer Vielzahl von Katalogen in Form von Bandkatalogen, Datenbanken, Karteien, Mikrofiches oder Multimedialen Katalogen zu tun, wobei sie immer mehr Datenbanken weltweit online erreichen. So wie wir in der Bibliotheksverwaltung (Ewert, G. und Umstätter, W. 1997) von einer Verwaltung im engeren und im erweiterten Sinne sprechen können, so müssen wir zwischen Katalogen unterscheiden, die den eigenen Besitz und solchen, die das verfügbare Wissen und die publizierte Information weiterer Einrichtungen oder sogar der ganzen Welt erschließen. Im ersten Fall sprechen wir von den Katalogen im engeren Sinne. Im zweiten Fall haben wir es einerseits mit der Zusammenführung von verschiedenen Bibliothekskatalogen zu tun, z.B. in Katalogisierungsverbünden oder sogenannten Internetportalen, und andererseits mit den meist thematisch ausgerichteten Datenbanken, die nicht selten aus den früheren Bibliographien hervorgegangen sind. Bei ihnen eine sogenannte Verlinkung mit den eigentlichen Quellen herzustellen ist oft leicht möglich. Die heutige Datenbanktechnik, die hinter modernen Katalogen steht, ergänzt stärker als je zuvor unser Gedächtnis, weil wir aus Volltext- und Multimediadatenbanken jederzeit gezielt all das abrufen können, was uns momentan nicht präsent ist. Wir können dies allerdings nur dann abrufen, wenn wir Wissen darüber besitzen, was abrufbar und wie es abrufbar ist. Zu dieser Grundlage will das vorliegende Buch beitragen. Schon die Griechen erkannten die fundamentale Bedeutung des geschriebenen Wortes als ein Langzeitgedächtnis, das unsere Erinnerung ins scheinbar Unendliche erweitert. Der Mythos von Theut beschäftigte sich mit der damit verbundenen Problematik. Aber erst die Daten- und Wissensbanken unserer Zeit schaffen die Möglichkeit, sich auch ganz gezielt zu erinnern. Sie bieten uns nicht nur die Möglichkeit bestimmte Bücher, sondern auch Aufsätze in Zeitschriften und inzwischen sogar einzelne Sätze bzw. Zitate zu finden.
    Die Katalogkunde von KARL LÖFFLER aus dem Jahre 1956 als Grundlage unserer Einführung kann einerseits als völlig veraltet angesehen werden, weil sie sich ausschließlich auf Kataloge bezieht, die auf Papier bzw. Karteikarten geschrieben waren. Die Fotographie und die Verwendung des Mikrofilms wurde damals als das Medium der Zukunft angesehen. Andererseits sind die Ausführungen der ersten und zweiten Auflage dieses Lehrbuchs von 1936 und 1956 insofern noch immer aktuell, als die Kataloge der damaligen Zeit inzwischen vielfach digitalisiert wurden und nun online verfügbar sind. Unter dem Stichwort Retrokonvertierung gewinnen die Katalogisierungsregeln der damaligen Zeit wieder Bedeutung oder bleiben sie wirksam. Und der Blick auf den geschichtlichen Kontext, den Löffler immer wieder hervorhebt, vermittelt unserer Meinung nach auch heute noch ein Gefühl für die historische Kontinuität der Probleme, die wir heute unter die Begriffe Wissensorganisation und Wissensmanagement subsumieren. «Die Unkenntnis der Lehre vom Katalog rächt sich am Bibliotheksbesucher selbst», schreibt LÖFFLER in seinem Vorwort von 1935, und wir können heute ergänzen, dass diese Besucher weitaus häufiger Nutzer von Bibliotheken sind, als sie es selbst oft wissen. Sie sitzen zu Hause, im Büro oder im Internetcafe an einem Computer und recherchieren in Online-Katalogen bzw. Datenbanken nach Publikationen, oft ohne jede Kenntnis davon, wie die Erschließung der Bestände organisiert ist, und nicht selten auch ohne den gewünschten Erfolg - und nicht immer im Bewusstsein, dass ein Misserfolg vorliegt, der sich bei besserer Katalog- und Datenbankkenntnis hätte vermeiden lassen. Katalogkunde offenbart damit das Spiel zwischen gezielter Suche, über das «Stöbern» (Browsing) hin bis zur Serendipity, in der wir, wie einst die jungen Prinzen auf Ceylon (Serendip) hinaus in die Fremde ziehen, um uns von der Großartigkeit der Welt überraschen zu lassen - und Bibliotheken haben im Sinne der Welt 3 von KARL POPPER eine überwältigende Größe und Vielfalt. Bei dem Spiel, der ein Wettkampf um die besten Informationen ist, kann es nicht darum gehen, die Regeln der Preußischen Instruktionen(PI), der Alphabetischen Katalogisierung (RAK), die Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR), die Regeln für den Schlagwortkatalog (RSWK), die Prinzipien des Unified Medical Language Systems (UMLS) usw. im einzelnen zu behandeln, sondern vielmehr nur darum, die Grundprinzipien des modernen Kataloges aus ihrer Evolution heraus zu verstehen, um mit ihnen möglichst virtuos umzugehen. Wir hoffen, dass die Katalogkunde dadurch jene Fassung erhalten hat, die den heutigen Bedürfnissen entspricht, und dass sie damit einerseits Inhalte aus dem «Lehrbuch der Bibliotheksverwaltung», und andererseits aus der «Katalogkunde» von KLAUs HALLER (1998) in wichtigen Punkten ergänzt und erweitert.

    Abstract
    Briefly follows the debate concerning: the relationship between traditional library OPACs and the WWW; possible replacement of USMARC format with SGML; and the possible demise of OPACs that do not migrate to the WWW. Discusses the approach taken by the Text encoding Initative (TEI) in their use of a mandatory TEI header in their standard SGML application as the first since CIP to explore attaching bibliographic information to the item itself to assist cataloguing

    Abstract
    Digital documents and Internet access are changing cataloguing practices. MARC formats can accomodate Internet documents by assigning a field for URL but quality control is vital, especially with multimedia catalogues, and new links have to be created. Heterogeneous distant resources can now be searches using the Z39.50 standard, thus enabling access to a wide range of diverse catalogues, and Internet formats are being used to create local systems (intranets). The librarian needs new skills to manipulate digital documents and use information technology tool but the mission is the same: to optimise access to the widest possible range of information

    Abstract
    Libraries, private and public, offer valuable resources to library patrons. As of today, the only way to locate information archived exclusively in libraries is through their catalogs. Library patrons, however, often find it difficult to formulate a proper query, which requires using specific keywords assigned to different fields of desired library catalog records, to obtain relevant results. These improperly formulated queries often yield irrelevant results or no results at all. This negative experience in dealing with existing library systems turns library patrons away from directly querying library catalogs; instead, they rely on Web search engines to perform their searches first, and upon obtaining the initial information (e.g., titles, subject headings, or authors) on the desired library materials, they query library catalogs. This searching strategy is an evidence of failure of today's library systems. In solving this problem, we propose an enhanced library system, which allows partial, similarity matching of (a) tags defined by ordinary users at a folksonomy site that describe the content of books and (b) unrestricted keywords specified by an ordinary library patron in a query to search for relevant library catalog records. The proposed library system allows patrons posting a query Q using commonly used words and ranks the retrieved results according to their degrees of resemblance with Q while maintaining the query processing time comparable with that achieved by current library search engines.

    Abstract
    Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), the standard subject language used in library catalogues, are often criticized for their lack of currency, biased language, and atypical syndetic structure. Conversely, folksonomies (or tags), which rely on the natural language of their users, offer a flexibility often lacking in controlled vocabularies and may offer a means of augmenting more rigid controlled vocabularies such as LCSH. Content analysis studies have demonstrated the potential for folksonomies to be used as a means of enhancing subject access to materials, and libraries are beginning to integrate tagging systems into their catalogues. This study examines the utility of tags as a means of enhancing subject access to materials in library online public access catalogues (OPACs) through usability testing with the LibraryThing for Libraries catalogue enhancements. Findings indicate that while they cannot replace LCSH, tags do show promise for aiding information seeking in OPACs. In the context of information systems design, the study revealed that while folksonomies have the potential to enhance subject access to materials, that potential is severely limited by the current inability of catalogue interfaces to support tag-based searches alongside standard catalogue searches.

    Abstract
    Cataloguing has always depended on choices made by non cataloguers and it has been driven by technology. Technological innovations expand the range of materials requiring bibliographic control and also improve the quality of that control. In the near future, economic factors will constrain opportunities to continue improving quality. Technological factors will continue to broaden demands on cataloguers. Inability to continue expanding the revenue streams of supporting institutions will limit cataloguer's efforts while rapid growth of information bearing technology, particularly on networks, will inflate demands for cataloguing. Librarians must develop expanded skills with automation networks and modern software systems if they are to maintain control
