Footnote

... This book is written by library professionals and aimed at the librarians in particular, but it will be useful to others who may be interested in knowing what libraries are up to in the age of Google. It is intended for library science educators and students, library administrators, publishers and university presses. It is well organized, well researched, and easily readable. Article titles are descriptive, allowing the reader to find what he needs by scanning the table of contents or by consulting the index. The only flaw in this book is the lack of summary or conclusions in a few articles. The book is in paperback and has 240 pages. This book is a significant contribution and I highly recommend it."

Sein Feldzug war erfolgreich: Europa will eine gemeinsame virtuelle Bibliothek aufbauen, an der sich nur die portugiesische Nationalbibliothek und die British Library nicht beteiligen wollen. Die Staatschefs sind sich einig, die Kulturminister im Gespräch. Es fehlen natürlich noch das Geld und sicher auch der Glaube daran, dass die träge Brüsseler Maschinerie es mit einem agilen amerikanischen Unternehmen aufnehmen könnte. Aber auch dort läuft nicht alles wie geplant: Selbst amerikanische Verleger haben gegen die Verletzung des Urheberrechtes protestiert und für Verzögerungen gesorgt. Jeanneney sieht in einem amerikanischen Alleingang und dem De-facto-Monopol von Google vor allem drei Gefahren: Erstens eine Hierarchisierung und Ordnung des Wissens nach rein kommerziellen Gesichtspunkten. "Kultur heißt nicht, alles kunterbunt auf einen Wühltisch zu schütten", sagt Jeanneney. Wissen und Kulturerbe müsse organisiert, das Angebot hierarchisiert werden. Die zweite kurzfristige Gefahr sieht er in der angelsächsischen Dominanz, in der Tatsache, dass die Trefferliste vor allem englische Texte anzeigen wird oder solche, die unter angloamerikanischem Blickwinkel ausgewählt wurden. Langfristig müsse man sich vor allem fragen, und darin sieht er die dritte Gefahr, wie ein Unternehmen, das so schnell eingehen kann wie es entstanden ist, den Fortbestand dieses Projektes sichern will. Jeanneney fordert die Staaten deshalb auf, sich einzumischen und diesem rein am Kapital orientierten Projekt einen längeren Atem einzuhauchen, "den Atem von mehreren Generationen". Jeanneneys Versuch, hinter dem moralischen Deckmäntelchen die materiellen Interessen von Google zu benennen, wird in Deutschland als "kulturkritisches Ressentiment" abgetan. Drängt sich die Frage auf, ob es sich in diesem Fall um ein antiamerikanisches oder womöglich eher um ein antifranzösisches Ressentiment handelt. Frankreichs Sozialromantiker und Kulturkämpfer stören offensichtlich den ungebrochen naiven Glauben an das messianische Versprechen des Kapitalismus, nach den Waren nun auch das Wissen der Welt zu verteilen. Es sieht aus, als gäbe es alles umsonst. Aber Google lässt sich seine Informationsbeschaffung bekanntlich bezahlen. Es gilt eben nicht das Gesetz der Enzyklopädie, sondern immer noch die Logik des Dow Jones."
Weitere Rez. in: ZfBB 53(2006) H.3/4, S.215-217 (M. Hollender): "Die Aversion des Präsidenten der Französischen Nationalbibliothek, Jean-Noël Jeanneney, gegen die Pläne von Google zur Massendigitalisierung kann nach der breiten Erörterung in der Tagespresse als zumindest in Grundzügen bekannt vorausgesetzt werden. Nunmehr liegt seine im März 2005 entstandene »Kampfschrift« (S.7) aktualisiert und mit einem Nachwort von Klaus-Dieter Lehmann versehen, auch in einer deutschen Übersetzung vor. So viel vorab: selten erhält man für 9,90 Euro so wenig und zugleich so viel: so viel Polemik, Selbstpreisgabe und Emphase und so wenig konkrete strategisch weiterführende Ideen. Dem Leser fällt vor allem der plumpe Antiamerikanismus, der dem gesamten Büchlein zugrunde liegt, über kurz oder lang unangenehm auf. Jeanneney moniert die »unvermeidliche amerikanische Ichbezogenheit« (S. 9). Wer aber mag es Google verdenken, sein Projekt zunächst mit angloamerikanischen Bibliotheken zu starten? Die Bereitschaft der britischen Boolean Library, ihre exzellenten Bestände vor 1900 von Google ebenfalls digitalisieren zu lassen, wird von Jeanneney im Stile einer Verschwörungstheorie kommentiert: »Wieder einmal wurde uns die altbekannte angloamerikanische Solidarität vorgeführt.« (S.19) Mit derselben Emphase könnte man sich darüber freuen, dass Google sich der Bestände hochbedeutender Forschungsbibliotheken versichert - nicht aber Jeanneney. Fazit: die »US-Dominanz, die mit einer mehr oder weniger bewussten Arroganz einhergeht«, bewirke, dass »alles, was der amerikanischen Weltsicht widerspricht, aussortiert« werde (S. 23). Wer derart voreingenommen wie Jeanneney an die Google-Pläne herangeht, verbaut sich selber die Chancen auf eine konstruktive und kooperative Lösung des Google-Problems. ...

Abstract

In Digital Methods, Richard Rogers proposes a methodological outlook for social and cultural scholarly research on the Web that seeks to move Internet research beyond the study of online culture. It is not a toolkit for Internet research, or operating instructions for a software package; it deals with broader questions. How can we study social media to learn something about society rather than about social media use? How can hyperlinks reveal not just the value of a Web site but the politics of association? Rogers proposes repurposing Web-native techniques for research into cultural change and societal conditions. We can learn to reapply such "methods of the medium" as crawling and crowd sourcing, PageRank and similar algorithms, tag clouds and other visualizations; we can learn how they handle hits, likes, tags, date stamps, and other Web-native objects. By "thinking along" with devices and the objects they handle, digital research methods can follow the evolving methods of the medium. Rogers uses this new methodological outlook to examine the findings of inquiries into 9/11 search results, the recognition of climate change skeptics by climate-change-related Web sites, the events surrounding the Srebrenica massacre according to Dutch, Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian Wikipedias, presidential candidates' social media "friends," and the censorship of the Iranian Web. With Digital Methods, Rogers introduces a new vision and method for Internet research and at the same time applies them to the Web's objects of study, from tiny particles (hyperlinks) to large masses (social media).

Abstract

"Web Search Engine Research", edited by Dirk Lewandowski, provides an understanding of Web search engines from the unique perspective of Library and Information Science. The book explores a range of topics including retrieval effectiveness, user satisfaction, the evaluation of search interfaces, the impact of search on society, reliability of search results, query log analysis, user guidance in the search process, and the influence of search engine optimization (SEO) on results quality. While research in computer science has mainly focused on technical aspects of search engines, LIS research is centred on users' behaviour when using search engines and how this interaction can be evaluated. LIS research provides a unique perspective in intermediating between the technical aspects, user aspects and their impact on their role in knowledge acquisition. This book is directly relevant to researchers and practitioners in library and information science, computer science, including Web researchers.

Abstract

The World Wide Web is rapidly filling with more text than anyone could have imagined even a short time ago, but the task of isolating relevant parts of this vast information has become just that much more daunting. Richard Belew brings a cognitive perspective to the study of information retrieval as a discipline within computer science. He introduces the idea of Finding Out About (FDA) as the process of actively seeking out information relevant to a topic of interest and describes its many facets - ranging from creating a good characterization of what the user seeks, to what documents actually mean, to methods of inferring semantic clues about each document, to the problem of evaluating whether our search engines are performing as we have intended. Finding Out About explains how to build the tools that are useful for searching collections of text and other media. In the process it takes a close look at the properties of textual documents that do not become clear until very large collections of them are brought together and shows that the construction of effective search engines requires knowledge of the statistical and mathematical properties of linguistic phenomena, as well as an appreciation for the cognitive foundation we bring to the task as language users. The unique approach of this book is its even handling of the phenomena of both numbers and words, making it accessible to a wide audience. The textbook is usable in both undergraduate and graduate classes on information retrieval, library science, and computational linguistics. The text is accompanied by a CD-ROM that contains a hypertext version of the book, including additional topics and notes not present in the printed edition. In addition, the CD contains the full text of C.J. "Keith" van Rijsbergen's famous textbook, Information Retrieval (now out of print). Many active links from Belew's to van Rijsbergen's hypertexts help to unite the material. Several test corpora and indexing tools are provided, to support the design of your own search engine. Additional exercises using these corpora and code are available to instructors. Also supporting this book is a Web site that will include recent additions to the book, as well as links to sites of new topics and methods.
