Abstract

Describes the availability, use and value of Z39.50, an international standard which allows a librarian accessing a database on one computer platform to search an OPAC hosted on another computer with a totally different database structure. Experiences of those working with the standard are given, and its use by the European Union IRIS project to link 6 major Irish research libraries is examined. Despite some problems encountered with different forms of author cataloguing and possible competition from the WWW, the standard is seen as possessing considerable strengths, for example in searching different catalogues and presenting the results in a standard format on screen, which justify the continuing interest of librarians

Abstract

One finding of the 2006 OCLC study of College Students' Perceptions of Libraries and Information Resources was that students expressed equal levels of trust in libraries and search engines when it came to meeting their information needs in a way that they felt was authoritative. Seeking to incorporate this insight into our own instructional methodology, Schaffer Library at Union College has attempted to engineer a shift from Google to Google Scholar among our student users by representing Scholar as a viable adjunct to the catalog and to snore traditional electronic resources. By attempting to engage student researchers on their own terms, we have discovered that most of them react enthusiastically to the revelation that the Google they think they know so well is, it turns out, a multifaceted resource that is capable of delivering the sort of scholarly information that will meet with their professors' approval. Specifically, this article focuses on the fact that many Google Scholar searches link hack to our own Web catalog where they identify useful book titles that direct OPAC keyword searches have missed.

Abstract

Myriad new information resources are available to contemporary library users. While print remains the foundation of most collections, libraries are also beginning to provide access to an array of bibliographic, numeric, and full-text databases. As more and more information is produced in electronic form and presented at computer workstations, the library catalog is being given an expanded role. The expanded catalog will play a crucial part in organizing information in electronic libraries, and in providing navigational assistance to library users. Like the traditional card catalog, the expanded catalog will not only lead to specific items or groups of sources, but also will provide connections to related materials. These connections will uses standard data elements to link the results of a search in one database with related material in another. For example, links will show local library holdings of sources in citation databases. Cornell University's Mann Library serves the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, the College of Human Ecology, and the Division of Biological Sciences. As part of electronic library development, Mann staff have been analyzing issues involved in making it possible for Agricola and BIOSIS users to see, automatically, which of their retrieved citations are from sources available in the Cornell libraries. Samples of citations from Agricola and BIOSIS were drawn, and data elements present in these records were compared with bibliographic records of the library's holdings. In some cases, links would be provided by ISSNs. The study shows, however, that the presence of standard identifiers such as ISSN, USBN, or CODEN cannot be assumed, and other linking algorithms must be developed. This article presents study results, provides an overview of several linking systems, and identifies some of the difficulties caused by lack of standardization between different bibliographic databases. It is clear that the concept of an expanded catalog will require not only links between information resources but agreements among information professionals on standard data elements.

Abstract

Reviews the potential revolution in the creation and smooth delivery of information on an OPAC released by the MARC 856 field. This offers the catalogue users an active link to a WWW site. Predicts the use of such links for accessing texts or showing locations within the library. Outlines the problems of maintaining the field 856 links and some of the solutions that are being applied by information professionals

Abstract

The Print-handicapped Libraries Access Network (PLANET) seeks to provide its 6 participating libraries in Victoria, Australia, with access to each other catalogues. By making the catalogues of many alternative format libraries more readily available, it is intended that much better use can be made of the limited stock of titles. The first stage is to link the 6 libraries to the state networked electronic information service, VICNET, and this is nearing completion. The inclusion of the Talking Book Library of the Royal Victoria Institute for the Blind (RVIB Table) will mean that users can select material from it using a wider variety of access points

Abstract

The aims of the QUALCAT project were to: set up a large bibliographic database integrating records covering a range of material from a number of different databases by using USBC technology for cleaning, merging and control, develop an expert system to select the best records from a number of duplicate records; develop an expert system to link databases and centralized authority control; develop a fully automated quality control package for day to day running; and investigate interface problems for cataloguers using the system

Abstract

This article proposes four design principles - The User, Active Learning, Conceptual Model of Teaching, and Modularity - as a conceptual framework of an Information Access Instruction (IAI4). These principles, when put in practice as specific guidelines, deamlessly link information sources together, regardless of their implementation medium, information structure, or interface style. Examples are drawn from a section of four-unit elective undergraduate course taught in the Department of LIS, University of California, Los Angeles

Abstract

A major initiative at the Sandia National Laboratories Technical Library, New Mexico, is the provision of desktop access to information for Sandia researchers. During 1995, the library created a home page on the WWW with information on how to link to its client server based OPAC. Through multiple access points, researchers can search the catalogue from their desks and a new initiative is the provision of access to Sandia generated documents by converting them to electronic form, placing them on Sandia's 'internal Web' and linking them to the OPAC bibliographic record. Addresses the processes developed in the library and the procedures for cataloguing these electronic reports, including identification of the bibliographic information and MARC tags to be used

Abstract

Examines the use of the Z39.50 Information Retrieval protocol for provision of access to its collections. Z39.50 offers a translation of different search engines developed by library systems suppliers and online database hosts. Traces its development and describes its abstraction and metalanguage, and the TCP/IP and OSI layer. It is being further developed in project ONE - OPAC Network in Europe, and European Union Library Plan project which began in Jan 95, of which the British Library is a partner. It aims to link national library catalogues in an open standards and telecommunications network, and to achieve interoperability by use of Z39.50. Describes the project so far, agreements made, and future developments

Abstract

As of spring semester 2010, Georgia Southern University began using a VuFind implementation as the default access to the library catalogue on the library Web page while maintaining a secondary link to the traditional Voyager "classic" catalogue. VuFind is an open-source product that has been adopted and adapted by all the state universities and colleges in the state of Georgia. For approximately ten years, Georgia libraries have used Voyager as their catalogue, and it remains available to users as the "classic" search option. This report examines the local VuFind implementation compared to the more traditional Voyager implementation, emphasizing the differences in the searching capabilities of each.
