Abstract

Purpose - To provide a historical look at the development of web versions of reference materials and discuss what makes an easy-to-use and useful electronic handbook. Design/methodology/approach - Electronic reference materials were limited to handbooks available on the web. Observations and assumptions about usability are tested with an information retrieval test for specific tasks in print and online editions of the same texts. Findings - Recommended adoption of those elements which create a well-designed book in combination with robust search capabilities and online presentation result in an easy-to-use and useful electronic reference source. Research limitations/implications - The small sample size that was used for testing limits the ability to draw conclusions, and is used only as an indication of the differences between models. A more thorough look at difference between electronic book aggregates, such as ENGnetBASE, Knovel® and Referex would highlight the best features for electronic reference materials. Practical implications - Advantages to particular models for electronic reference publishing are discussed, raising awareness for product evaluation. Areas of development for electronic reference book publishers or providers are identified. Work in these areas would help ensure maximum efficiency through cross title searching via meta-searching and data manipulation. Originality/value - The paper presents results from some human computer interaction studies about electronic books which have been implemented in a web interface, and the positive effects achieved.

Footnote

Rez. in: JASIST 57(2006) no.8, S.1130-1132 (S.R. Tompson): "The editors of This text in MIT Press' Digital Libraries and Electronic Publishing series deliberately view digital libraries (DLs) as "sociotechnical systems" - "networks of technology. information. documents, people and practices''. They allow an additional definition of "sociotechnical" as "an analytical stance that privileges neither the social nor the technological and in which neither is reducible to the other". This is an important definition, as it is the foundation of the contributors' sociological approach to digital libraries, an approach not typical of the DL literature which still focuses "largely on the technology itself". Bishop et al. have two stated goals for this volume: 1. "... to inform police and professional practice in DLs with socially grounded understanding of DLs as part of a web of social relations and practices. 2. "... to perform technically informed social analysis of phenomena of interest to social scientists that are highlighted by digital libraries. specifically issues of work, groups, and knowledge"."

Abstract

Academic and special libraries are in the midst of a shift toward hybrid collections. This shift from collection ownership to an information access model supports the distributed nature of learning and work. However, unanticipated consequences of these changes are emerging. One confounding result is a visible pattern of discontinuities in collections, with unique features for electronic products. Patterns of discontinuities encountered included the occurrence of intermittent holes and unintentionally masked information. This has both immediate and long-term implications for library users and services, and there are not yet coherent measures to assess these sorts of outcomes. A framework is required for the systematic evaluation of the effects of new systems such as bundled electronic resources. This research suggests that evaluating both use and non-use of electronic collections will supplement other acquisitions and service measures to support long-range planning and decision-making.

Abstract

By Internet resources Zhang means any electronic file accessible by any Internet protocol. Their usage is determined by an examination of the citations to such sources in a nine-year sample of four print and four electronic LIS journals, by a survey of editors of these journals, and by a survey of scholars with "in press" papers in these journals. Citations were gathered from Social Science Citation Index and manually classed as e-sources by the format used. All authors with "in press" papers were asked about their use and opinion of Internet sources and for any suggestions for improvement. Use of electronic sources is heavy and access is very high. Access and ability explain most usage while satisfaction was not significant. Citation of e-journals increases over the eight years. Authors report under citation of e-journals in favor of print equivalents. Traditional reasons are given for citing and not citing, but additional reasons are also present for e-journals.

Abstract

The proliferation of electronic databases and reduced library collections require researchers to be familiar with an increasing range of bibliographical resources. To assist users in searching multiple databases the PICA network in the Netherlands has developed PiCarta as a single information source. The servie enables users to access bibliographical databases and electronic journals using Boolean logic, fuzzy operators, and subject weighting. The system is, however, dependent upon indexing methods used in original sources

Abstract

In 1997 a survey was held in the Netherlands by the Innovatie Wetenschappelijke Informatievoorziening (Innovation in Scientific Information Services) Steering Group to establish how much use students and research workers make of the Internet. 84% of respondents reported it useful for email communication, whilst 49% used it for consulting web documents. However, only 27% of respondents used it to consult electronic journals. A majority of respondents asked for greater assistance from library staff

Content

"Wer im Jahr 2003 in seinen Lieblingsthemen detailliert informiert sein möchte, klappert täglich Dutzende von News-Sites und Webmagazinen ab. Ein Unterfangen, das mitunter recht mühselig sein kann: Neben, über und unter den gewünschten Nachrichten quälen sich bei jedem Aufruf Menüleisten, Banner und Grafiken durch die Leitung, und oft genug wurde die Seite seit seinem vergangenen Besuch nicht einmal aktualisiert. RSS-Clients, auch Feedreader genannt, könnten künftig Surfern die zeitaufwendige Handarbeit abnehmen. Das Prinzip ist denkbar einfach: Die Betreiber von Webangeboten stellen - neben den HTML-Seiten, die übliche Browser benötigen - einen so genannten Newsfeed zur Verfügung. Genau genommen handelt es sich dabei um nichts Weiteres. als eine speziell kodierte Textdatei mit berschriften, Zusammenfassungen und Textausschnitten der jeweils jüngsten Meldungen. Der Feedreader dreht in regelmäßigen Abständen seine Runden, holt diese Dateien und - wieder daheim - präsentiert die enthaltenen Informationen übersichtlich lesbar. Erst ein Klick auf eine Überschrift lädt den entsprechenden Originalartikel schließlich in den Webbrowser. Statt sich der Reizüberflutung auf Dutzenden, unterschiedlich gestylten Websites auszusetzen, genügt so ein Blick auf die systematisch geordneten Texteinträge im Fenster des Feedreaders, um zu entscheiden, welche Beiträge einer genaueren Betrachtung würdig sind und welche nicht. Diese Sammel-und-Zeige-Programme gibt es mittlerweile in vielen Geschmacksrichtungen und für nahezu jedes Betriebssystem (siehe "Feedreade"). Der Haken: Die Betreiber der Webangebote müssen den Dienst unterstützen und die nötigen RSS-Dateien zur Verfügung stellen. Da sich die meisten News-Magazine allerdings mit Bannerwerbung finanzieren, standen ihre Herausgeber dieser Verbreitung ihrer Texte bisher skeptisch gegenüber. Doch langsam denken viele um: Immerhin kann das System Besucher anlocken. Und nicht irgendwelche. Die Leser sind ausgesprochen interessiert und motiviert, da sie sich explizit für ein bestimmtes Angebot entschieden haben - und nicht zufällig oder unter Zeitdruck durch die einzelnen Seiten stolpern. Spätestens seit mit Yahoo einer der großen Anbieter seine aktuellen Meldungen als Newsfeed verbreitet, darf man davon ausgehen, dass etliche Mitbewerber folgen werden. So könnte die praktische Technologie in absehbarer Zeit zum nützlichen Alltagswerkzeug werden. Bis das soweit ist, übernehmen spezialisierte Dienste den Job des Mittlers zwischen den Welten: Unter NewsIsFree.com kann sich jeder User seine individuelle Auswahl an RSSFeeds zusammenstellen. Sollte das betreffende Internet-Angebot die Technik noch nicht unterstützen, wird einfach kurzerhand der notwendige Feed extern generiert - ob es dem Betreiber nun passt oder nicht. Der Service ist in der Basis-Version kostenlos. RSS steht für "Rich Site Summary". Doch zuletzt werden die drei Buchstaben häufiger als Akronym für "Really Simple Syndication" eingesetzt. Die Idee geht zurück auf das Jahr 1999, als das mittlerweile beinahe verblichene Unternehmen Netscape mit Hilfe dieses Verfahrens die Popularität seines Portals MyNetscape.com erhöhen wollte. Der Durchbruch kam mit der Verbreitung der Weblogs. Angeregt durch die Integration des RSS-Standards in das beliebte Blog-Tool Radio Userland, übernahmen die Hersteller anderer Publishing-Systeme schnell diese Strategie, und heute kommt kaum noch ein Online-Journal ohne eigenen Newsfeed aus - erkennbar am kleinen XML-Button auf der Startseite.

Abstract

A guide to collection development and leisure related Web sites. Highlights more than 2 dozen sites, approximately half of which are devoted to collection development. The same principles used to develop print collections apply to electronic resource collection development. Many review resources are available as a result of efforts by Internet librarians. Good starting points for this category include the Library Web Manager's Reference Center: Current Awareness, and the Librarians' Index to the Internet. Picks of the month for leisure time include KidsHealth.org, Chemical Scorecard, and DigiCams Web Cam Viewer. Also includes a sidebar listing eight books covering topics such as SQL, HTML, DHTML, Web navigation, Windows 98, guides to computers and Palm Pilots, and spamming

Abstract

SFX is an XML-based product designed to inter-link electronic resources with other resources in context-sensitive manner. SFX was first developed at the University of Ghent by Herbert Van de Sompel and has been released as a commercial product by Ex Libris. Use statistics garnered from SFX's statistics module since the implementation in July of 2001 are discussed in the context of an academic research library environment. The results from usability testing conducted at Washington State University are reported. These usage statistics demonstrated a pattern of increasing use and exceptional use from FirstSearch databases.

Abstract

The Iter Project ("iter" means "path" or "journey" in Latin) is an internationally supported non-profit research project created with the objective of providing electronic access to all kinds and formats of materials that relate to the Middle Ages and Renaissance (400-1700) and that were published between 1700 and the present. Knowledge representation and organization decisions for the Project were influenced by its potential international clientele of scholarly users, and these decisions illustrate the importance and efficacy of collaboration between specialized users and information professionals. The paper outlines the scholarly principles and information goals of the Project and describes in detail the methodology developed to provide reliable and consistent knowledge representation and organization for one component of the Project, the Iter Bibliography. Examples of fully catalogued records for the Iter Bibliography are included.

Abstract

Reports a preliminary analysis of organizational schemes applied by academic libraries worldwide to arrange their electronic resources an their Web-based information gateways. The unsystematic sample consists of 41 academic libraries in 10 countries representing 4 languages, Chinese, English, German, and Spanish. The study reveals a widely accepted practice in applying 6 simplistic methods to organizing online information: by resource type, alphabetical by title, alphabetical by subject (mostly discipline and genre), by vendor/publisher, by broad classification, and random. In addition, it notes a marked difference between libraries in the English-speaking world and those in other countries in that the former present significantly more systematic characteristics.
