Abstract

Wie eine gigantische Informationslandschaft tut sich das Internet vor unseren Augen auf. Und seit sich Google im Herbst letzten Jahres mit den Autoren und Verlegern, die die große Suchmaschine wegen Urheberrechtsverletzung verklagt hatten, auf einen Vergleich geeinigt hat, stellt sich die Frage nach der Orientierung im World Wide Web mit neuer Dringlichkeit. Während der letzten vier Jahre hat Google Millionen von Büchern, darunter zahllose urheberrechtlich geschützte Werke, aus den Beständen großer Forschungsbibliotheken digitalisiert und für die Onlinesuche ins Netz gestellt. Autoren und Verleger machten dagegen geltend, dass die Digitalisierung eine Copyrightverletzung darstelle. Nach langwierigen Verhandlungen einigte man sich auf eine Regelung, die gravierende Auswirkungen darauf haben wird, wie Bücher den Weg zu ihren Lesern finden. . . .

Abstract

Although much of the hubris and hyperbole surrounding the 1990's Internet has softened to a reasonable level, the inexorable momentum of information growth continues unabated. This wealth of information provides resources for adapting to the problems posed by our increasingly complex world, but the simple availability of more information does not guarantee its successful transformation into valuable knowledge that shapes, guides, and improves our activity. When faced with something like the analysis of sense-making behavior on the web, traditional research models tell us a lot about learning and performance with browser operations, but very little about how people will actively navigate and search through information structures, what information they will choose to consume, and what conceptual models they will induce about the landscape of cyberspace. Thus, it is fortunate that a new field of research, Adaptive Information Interaction (AII), is becoming possible. AII centers on the problems of understanding and improving human-information interaction. It is about how people will best shape themselves to their information environments, and how information environments can best be shaped to people. Its roots lie in human-computer interaction (HCI), information retrieval, and the behavioral and social sciences. This book is about Information Foraging Theory (IFT), a new theory in Adaptive Information Interaction that is one example of a recent flourish of theories in adaptationist psychology that draw upon evolutionary-ecological theory in biology. IFT assumes that people (indeed, all organisms) are ecologically rational, and that human information-seeking mechanisms and strategies adapt the structure of the information environments in which they operate. Its main aim is to create technology that is better shaped to users. Information Foraging Theory will be of interest to student and professional researchers in HCI and cognitive psychology.

Abstract

Considers cost and value issues of information, which are increasingly becoming the concern of a wide range of professions in addition to information and records managers. Explores a variety of ways of valuing information, 2 of which are based on its availability or proximity and the effect of possessing the information. Concludes that whilst putting a price or value on information is very difficult, there must be a value to it, as the effect of not having it can readily be observed

Abstract

The 3rd in a series on the use and abuse of information, focusing on the relative quality of nearly all information, and how to deal with the problems generated by volatility of data. Argues that information should be gathered from a wide range of cultures, and preferably not the same one as the recipients, or the necessary 'relativising background' will not be provided. Looks at some ways to improve the quality and relevance of information routinely provided in business reports, by transforming the data in simple ways

Ein Netz von Pfaden Ein früher Traum von einem maschinell erweiterten Gedächtnis wurde gegen Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs von Vannevar Bush geäußert. Bush, damals Direktor des Office of Scientific Research and Development (OSRD), das die militärischen Forschungsprogramme der USA koordinierte, und besser bekannt als Erfinder des Analogrechners, stellte 1945 in seinem Aufsatz »As we may think« eine fiktive Maschine namens Memex (Memory Extender, »Gedächtnis-Erweiterer«) vor, die alle Bücher, alle Aufzeichnungen und die gesamte Kommunikation eines Menschen auf Mikrofilm speichern sollte. Das Memex sollte in einem Schreibtisch eingebaut sein und über eine Tastatur, ein Mikrofon und mehrere Bildschirme verfügen. Bush hatte vorgesehen, dass der Benutzer am Schreibtisch mit einer Kamera Fotografien und Dokumente auf Mikrofilm ablichtete oder neue Dokumente erstellte, indem er auf einen berührungsempfindlichen Bildschirm schrieb. Unterwegs sollte eine per Stirnband am Kopf befestigte Kamera das Aufzeichnen übernehmen. Vor allem aber sollte das Memex ähnlich dem menschlichen Gehirn zu assoziativem Denken fähig sein. Bush beschreibt das sehr plastisch: »Kaum hat es einen Begriff erfasst, schon springt es zum nächsten, geleitet von Gedankenassoziationen und entlang einem komplexen Netz von Pfaden, das sich durch die Gehirnzellen zieht.« Im Lauf des folgenden halben Jahrhunderts entwickelten unerschrockene Informatikpioniere, unter ihnen Ted Nelson und Douglas Engelbart, einige dieser Ideen, und die Erfinder des World Wide Web setzten Bushs »Netz von Pfaden« in die Netzstruktur ihrer verlinkten Seiten um. Das Memex selbst blieb jedoch technisch außer Reichweite. Erst in den letzten Jahren haben die rasanten Fortschritte in Speichertechnik, Sensorik und Rechentechnologie den Weg für neue Aufzeichnungs- und Suchtechniken geebnet, die im Endeffekt weit über Bushs Vision hinausgehen könnten."

Kübler): "Noch ist die "Informationsgesellschaft", nicht hinlänglich etabliert, erst recht nicht weltweit, noch streiten sich viele um ihre validen Charakteristika und registrierbaren Indikatoren, noch dürften viele Zeitgenossen mit dem Begriff und vor allem mit seinen konkreten Realia wenig anfangen und in ihrem Bewusstein zumal angesichts vieler vorderhand drängenderen Probleme des Alltags verankert habenda fragt die rührige Bertelsmann Stiftung in diesem (ansprechend gestalteten) Sammelband (schon in zweiter Auflage) internationale Experten danach, was ihres Erachtens oder nach ihrer Fantasie danach kommen wird: die Wissensgesellschaft, die selbstorganisierende Gesellschaft, die Hightouch- (statt Hightech)Society oder einfach mannigfaltige, immer weniger prognostizierbare Formationen und Zukünfte. Denn mindestens in zwei Pole lassen sich die elf, wohl willkürlich gewählten Autoren aus diversen Disziplinen - darunter auch notorische Propheten wie der umtriebige (Seite 46) Trendscout Matthias Horx, der Essener Medienguru Norbert Bolz und der Computer-Visionär John Naisbitt- aufteilen. - Durchwurstelei statt Nachhaltigkeit - Da sind zunächst die einen, die meinen, und just in diesen Aufsätzen meist mit vielen, sich auch widersprechenden Worten begründen, dass und warum Zukunftsprognosen, die über simple und damit irreführende Extrapolationen der Gegenwart hinausreichen wollen, kaum mehr oder gar immer weniger möglich sind. So fragt sich der Kommunikationswissenschaftler Holger Rust zunächst, in welcher Gesellschaft wir leben, zumal für ihn nicht einmal eindeutig ist, wann die Informationsgesellschaft beginnt: War's mit dem Buchdruck oder 1901 mit der Erfindung des Telegrafen oder 1956 mit der Gründung des Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory oder erst mit dem World Wide Web? Genüsslich verweist er auf die kürzlich (2000) erschienene Recherche (»In welcher Gesellschaft leben wir?«) des Münchner Journalisten Achim Pongs, der allein schon für die Bundesrepublik 24 einschlägige Etiketten ausmachte, und schlägt unter den Vorzeichen des wachsenden Naming die sperrige, aber wohl alle ironisch einvernehmende Kompromissformel »informationstechnologiebasierte Wissensdienstleistergesellschaft mit industriellem Kern« (Seite 66) vor. Da fehlt wohl nichts mehr von den wohlfeilen Attributen. Zuvor schon plädieren Eckhard Minx, Leiter der Forschungsgruppe »Gesellschaft und Technik« bei DaimlerChrysler, und seine Mitarbeiter mit nüchternem, aber kritischem Gespür dafür, die vielen eher technisch und ökonomisch formierten »Denkblockaden« weg zu räumen und mehr Utopien in »diskursiven Prozessen« zu entwickeln. Denn nur so ließe sich mit der »Zwickmühle« umgehen, in der wir stecken: »Auf der einen Seite wird der Druck, Aussagen über die Zukunft zu treffen, immer größer, auf der anderen Seite sind verlässliche Vorhersagen meist nicht möglich« (Seite 30).

Abstract

The Turn analyzes the research of information seeking and retrieval (IS&R) and proposes a new direction of integrating research in these two areas: the fields should turn off their separate and narrow paths and construct a new avenue of research. An essential direction for this avenue is context as given in the subtitle Integration of Information Seeking and Retrieval in Context. Other essential themes in the book include: IS&R research models, frameworks and theories; search and works tasks and situations in context; interaction between humans and machines; information acquisition, relevance and information use; research design and methodology based on a structured set of explicit variables - all set into the holistic cognitive approach. The present monograph invites the reader into a construction project - there is much research to do for a contextual understanding of IS&R. The Turn represents a wide-ranging perspective of IS&R by providing a novel unique research framework, covering both individual and social aspects of information behavior, including the generation, searching, retrieval and use of information. Regarding traditional laboratory information retrieval research, the monograph proposes the extension of research toward actors, search and work tasks, IR interaction and utility of information. Regarding traditional information seeking research, it proposes the extension toward information access technology and work task contexts. The Turn is the first synthesis of research in the broad area of IS&R ranging from systems oriented laboratory IR research to social science oriented information seeking studies.

Footnote

- Kapitel fünf enthält einen entsprechenden Überblick über die kognitive und benutzerorientierte IR-Tradition. Es zeigt, welche anderen (als nur die labororientierten) IR-Studien durchgeführt werden können, wobei sich die Betrachtung von frühen Modellen (z.B. Taylor) über Belkins ASK-Konzept bis zu Ingwersens Modell der Polyrepräsentation, und von Bates Berrypicking-Ansatz bis zu Vakkaris "taskbased" IR-Modell erstreckt. Auch Web-IR, OKAPI und Diskussionen zum Relevanzbegriff werden hier thematisiert. - Im folgenden Kapitel schlagen die Autoren ein integriertes IS&R Forschungsmodell vor, bei dem die vielfältigen Beziehungen zwischen Informationssuchenden, Systementwicklern, Oberflächen und anderen beteiligten Aspekten berücksichtigt werden. Ihr Ansatz vereint die traditionelle Laborforschung mit verschiedenen benutzerorientierten Traditionen aus IS&R, insbesondere mit den empirischen Ansätzen zu IS und zum interaktiven IR, in einem holistischen kognitiven Modell. - Kapitel sieben untersucht die Implikationen dieses Modells für IS&R, wobei besonders ins Auge fällt, wie komplex die Anfragen von Informationssuchenden im Vergleich mit der relativen Einfachheit der Algorithmen zum Auffinden relevanter Dokumente sind. Die Abbildung der vielfältig variierenden kognitiven Zustände der Anfragesteller im Rahmen der der Systementwicklung ist sicherlich keine triviale Aufgabe. Wie dabei das Problem der Einbeziehung des zentralen Aspektes der Bedeutung gelöst werden kann, sei dahingestellt. - Im achten Kapitel wird der Versuch unternommen, die zuvor diskutierten Punkte in ein IS&R-Forschungsprogramm (Prozesse - Verhalten - Systemfunktionalität - Performanz) umzusetzen, wobei auch einige kritische Anmerkungen zur bisherigen Forschungspraxis getroffen werden. - Das abschliessende neunte Kapitel fasst das Buch kurz zusammen und kann somit auch als Einstieg in dieThematik gelesen werden. Darauffolgen noch ein sehr nützliches Glossar zu allen wichtigen Begriffen, die in dem Buch Verwendung finden, eine Bibliographie und ein Sachregister. Ingwersen und Järvelin haben hier ein sehr anspruchsvolles und dennoch lesbares Buch vorgelegt. Die gebotenen Übersichtskapitel und Diskussionen sind zwar keine Einführung in die Informationswissenschaft, decken aber einen grossen Teil der heute in dieser Disziplin aktuellen und durch laufende Forschungsaktivitäten und Publikationen berührten Teilbereiche ab. Man könnte es auch - vielleicht ein wenig überspitzt - so formulieren: Was hier thematisiert wird, ist eigentlich die moderne Informationswissenschaft. Der Versuch, die beiden Forschungstraditionen zu vereinen, wird diesem Werk sicherlich einen Platz in der Geschichte der Disziplin sichern. Nicht ganz glücklich erscheint der Titel des Buches. "The Turn" soll eine Wende bedeuten, nämlich jene hin zu einer integrierten Sicht von IS und IR. Das geht vermutlich aus dem Untertitel besser hervor, doch dieser erschien den Autoren wohl zu trocken. Schade, denn "The Turn" gibt es z.B. in unserem Verbundkatalog bereits, allerdings mit dem Zusatz "from the Cold War to a new era; the United States and the Soviet Union 1983-1990". Der Verlag, der abgesehen davon ein gediegenes (wenn auch nicht gerade wohlfeiles) Produkt vorgelegt hat, hätte derlei unscharfe Duplizierend besser verhindert. Ungeachtet dessen empfehle ich dieses wichtige Buch ohne Vorbehalt zur Anschaffung; es sollte in keiner grösseren Bibliothek fehlen."

Abstract

Introduction. This short paper proposes that a unified concept of information as a form of self-organized complexity may be equally applicable to the physical, biological and human/social domains. This is seen as the evolutionary emergence of organized complexity in the physical universe, meaning in context in the biological domain, and understanding through knowledge in the human domain. Method.This study is based on analysis of literature from a wide range of disciplines. Conclusions.This perspective allows for the possibility that not only may the library/information sciences be able to draw insights from the natural sciences, but that library and information science research and scholarship may in turn contribute insights to these disciplines, normally thought of as more 'fundamental'.

Abstract

Information Science (IS) is commonly said to study collection, classification, storage, retrieval, and use of information. However, there is no consensus on what information is. This article examines some of the formal models of information and informational processes, namely, Situation Theory and Shannon's Information Theory, in terms of their suitability for providing a useful framework for studying information in IS. It is argued that formal models of information are concerned with mainly ontological aspects of information, whereas IS, because of its evaluative role with respect to semantic content, needs an epistemological conception of information. It is argued from this perspective that concepts of epistemological/aesthetic/ethical information are plausible, and that information science needs to rise to the challenge of studying many different conceptions of information embedded in different contexts. This goal requires exploration of a wide variety of tools from philosophy and logic.

Abstract

The paper evaluates the data-information-knowledge-wisdom (DIKW) hierarchy. This hierarchy, also known as the `knowledge hierarchy', is part of the canon of information science and management. Arguments are offered that the hierarchy is unsound and methodologically undesirable. The paper identifies a central logical error that DIKW makes. The paper also identifies the dated and unsatisfactory philosophical positions of operationalism and inductivism as the philosophical backdrop to the hierarchy. The paper concludes with a sketch of some positive theories, of value to information science, on the nature of the components of the hierarchy: that data is anything recordable in a semantically and pragmatically sound way, that information is what is known in other literature as `weak knowledge', that knowledge also is `weak knowledge' and that wisdom is the possession and use, if required, of wide practical knowledge, by an agent who appreciates the fallible nature of that knowledge.

Abstract

In response to the perceived (by some) onset of an information society, historians have begun to study its roots and antecedents. The past is replete with the rise, fall, and transformation of systems of information, which are not to be confused with the narrower computer-mediated world of information systems. The history of systems of information-which for digestibility can be labeled information history-lacks neither scale nor scope. Systems of information have played a critical role in the transition to, and subsequent development of, capitalism; the growth of the state, especially the modern, nation-state; the rise of modernity, science, and the public sphere; imperialism; and geopolitics. In the context of these epochal shifts and episodes in human thinking and social organization, this essay presents a critical bibliographic survey of histories-outside the well-trodden paths of library and information-science history-that have foregrounded, or made reference to, a wide variety of systems of information.

Abstract

The study of information needs has long be acknowlegded as one of the most important factors in the design of information services but has been hampered by the severe problem of designing user studies that will reliably measure them. Reviews the literature of previous research in this field, concluding that time and money are the chief constraints on information seeking behaviour. Describes a new observational technique for identifying the information needs of users and reports results of a small scale experiment to test the methodology. The observational technique involves the researcher being with the subject continuously throughout the day and observing their actions. The behaviour recorded was any action taken in order to answer a question. A small scale study was undertaken of 3 academics from the Psychology Department, University of Strathclyde, using the observational technique. The preferred technique of all the academics was to carry out their own research, followed by consultation with other individuals. One lecturer was a significantly heavier user of electronic media than the other two. The preferred physical locations of the information sources were personal collections and the University Library. One lecturer consistently used a wide range of sources while the other two strongly preferred to use personal contacts. Informal sources were found to be twice as popular as formal sources. A follow up questionnaire survey examined the possibility that previous training in the use of the library could explain the differences in the use of electronic information sources but results were found to be negative. Concludes that the new research tool developed for this type of study is both robust and likely to yield reliable information about user information needs

Abstract

Starts from the premise that meaning is not an intrinsic property of information items. Approaches to 'meaning' in diverse humanities disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, and the history of arts and music, are drawn on to enhance the understanding of meaning in the context of multimedia information retrieval on the Internet. The approaches described include philosophy of language and meaning, psychology of language including repertory grids and semantic differential, iconography and levels of meaning, and representation of music. A consistent theme in all these disciplines is the recognition that meaning is context dependent and may be analyzed at a variety of different levels, with nomenclature and number of levels varying across disciplines. Identifies the strengths and weaknesses of searching and retrieval on the Internet with particular emphasis on subject content and meaning. It shows the limitations of searching using the most basic level of meaning, while attempting to cater for a wide diversity of information resources and users. Recommends enhanced retrieval interfaces linked to the needs of specific user groups and the characteristics of specific media on the Internet
