Abstract

In the Netherlands the PICA network introduced the latest version of its OPAC in 1991. The new OPAC, which is central to the development of the Open Library Network, offers users new methods of information searching. A study of use patterns of the new OPAC at the Royal Library and Groningen University Library has helped to improve screen layout and command structure in preparation for general introduction of the terminals throughout the network

Abstract

A preliminary survey of poster collections in libraries, museums, and archives in the Netherlands revealed a wealth of material about which little was known. A deteiled survey was, therefore, undertaken in 1992 by the Rijksdienst Beeldende Kunst of 14 institutiions known to hold poster collections. As a result of the project the Database Nederlandse Affiches has been compiled to record details of the 72.000 items identified. Other institutions have now begun to submit details of their holdings to the database

Abstract

Despite the extensive use of automation for archive management the creation of ISAD(G) (General International Standard Archival Description) was only accepted in January 1992. A special adaptation of the ISBD had already enabled a start to be made on creating MARC format records for archive collections. ISAD(G) will facilitate the exchange of data among collections. Whether the new standard will be suitable for all forms of archive depends on the willingness of archivists to adopt new technology

Abstract

Modern online information systems have been criticized as being too complicated for the average information seeker. To overcome this problem interfaces have been developed to assist users at all stages of the information transfer process from searching to analysis and evaluation of retrieval data. However, the effectiveness of an interface will depend on the skills of the user. Further development of interfaces will be aided by the use of Windows and mouse controlled systems

Abstract

In the Netherlands dissatisfaction with the classification schedules and subject indexing headings assigned to records by the National Bibliographic Service has led librarians to re-arrange their collections in broad reader-interest categories. With the introduction of online public catalogues in libraries and their provision of multiple entry terms for each item, the problems of conflictions in shelf location are largely eliminated. The internal layout of each library may place constraints on such radical reorganisation. Howver, the merging of the children's and adults' sections can be useful in offering children a greater depth of knowledge. A further useful arrangement may be the combination of fiction and non-fiction collections in broad subject catalogues

Abstract

In May 80 the joint working parties on the Dutch National Bibliography and the Dutch National Bibliographical Centre published their final report containing proposals for a national bibliography in the Netherlands based on Brinkmann's catalogue of books. In view of the limited number of terms used in the subject index of Brinkmann's catalogue it was proposed to adopt the thesaurus of headings developed by the Netherlands Bibliotheek en Lektuur Centrum with the addition of UDC and SISO classification numbers to each entry. A test-run has identified a core of some 3.500 headings which will be input into the database to provide a subject index to the bibliography. The system will become operational on 1 Jan 81

Abstract

Retrieval techniques may be based on the full text of documents, or on descriptors selected from a thesaurus. The latter approach constitutes an attempt to bridge the gap between demand and documents, which causes problems if demand cannot be forecast. Building up a thesaurus involves choosing the method of collecting descriptors, choosing the actual descriptors and making the system easily accessible to users. Classification and a classified catalogue are essential to the organisation of knowledge. Rules for the formation of classes have developed out of natural systems of classification. Chain indexing greatly aids the formation of the subject index. UDC and DDC are used in most documentation centres in the Netherlands. Public libraries mostly use SISO, a Dutch universal classification system

Abstract

Articles on the Internet and its application to library services now abound in the professional literature. Libraries which do not offer Internet access are depriving their users of access to a vast store of information. As the cost of scientific journals continues to soar the Internet has encouraged the creation of specialist databases, such as the elementary particle physics database at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Publishers charges for online information highlight the vulnerable position of Flemish university libraries

Abstract

A recent survey at the Royal Library in the Netherlands showed that subject headings are more efficient than title keywords for retrieval purposes. 475 Dutch publications were selected at random and assigned subject headings. The study showed that subject headings provided additional useful information in 56% of titles. Subsequent searching of the library's online catalogue showed that 88% of titles were retrieved via subject headings against 57% through title keywords. Further precision may be achieved with the help of indexing staff, but at considerable cost

Abstract

A survey of catalogue use in 1993 at Utrecht University in the Netherlands showed considerable dissatisfaction with the online catalogue's subject search facilities. Of those who used subject searching 64% preferred subject headings against only 2% who chose classification schedules. Library users make little use of the existing facilities for assistance and leaflets which are available in the library. It has, therefore, been decided to provide a programme of instruction in library use and to move towards a unified system of subject access to the library's catalogue

Abstract

A study of the online catalogues of major academic libraries and databases in the Netherlands shows considerable variation in the form of name used for the author W.F. Hermans. The problem lies with a lack of authority control in headings used in the Dutch national union Pica catalogue. Reactions from 2 cataloguers point to the difficulties in maintaining catalogues in the face of reduced funding and to the important role played by the Pica project in improving library services and reducing cataloguing backlogs

Abstract

The 1st book auctions for which printed catalogues were issued started in the Netherlands around 1600. However, few catalogues survive before the start of the 19th century. Such early catalogues frequently represent the collections of individuals or of institutions, including libraries. Details of authorship, provenance and state of individual works varies greatly from catalogue to catalogue. For auctioneers commerical considerations are more important than bibliographical correctness. Despite their importance for tracing provenance, auction catalogues are frequently inadequately catalogued in libraries

Abstract

Programs for converting bibligraphic data are not only of interest to libraries but also to researchers compiling bibliographies. However, few programs are currently available. In choosing a suitable program care must be taken to ensure that it is capable of identifying and converting all fields likely to be encountered, to the required format. Optical scanning can provide a convenient solution for converting printed output to machine-readable format. Increasing acceptance of standardised formats will facilitate exchange of data

Abstract

Modern technology has radically altered the administration of information services and offers a range of alternative sources of information. Librarians must be prepared to use the technology to highlight the importance of their services. Benchmarking provides a useful guarantee to standards of service and assists in improving services on an ongoing basis. In the Netherlands useful models for assessing services have been developed by the Instituut Nederlandse Kwaliteit and the Economic Instituut voor het Midden- en Kleinbedrijf

Abstract

The universal classification schemes developed in the 19th century are a direct response to the social changes of that era. However, the increasing use of automation in libraries has highlighted the need fir greater precision in hierarchical structures. A thesaurus of used and related headings can be employed to show the spatial relationship of semantic terms. The resulting search profile can be further enhanced by the addition of citation weighting. To assist users to define searches more accurately libraries using large general classification schemes should consider adding supplementary classification data to records

Abstract

Many companies now recognise the importance of knowledge as a factor in ensuring the organisation's success. Such organisations will create a knowledge infrastructure linking all aspects of the process, such as knowledge creation, dissemination, storage and application. This infrastructure will involve staff, processes and systems from a range of areas within the organisation. Trained information professionals can expect to play an important role in such services. The limitations of indexing services for online databases will require the input of information specialists in undertaking specialised searches

Abstract

Until comparatively recently archive collections in local and provincial authorities in Belgium were largely concerned with preserving the output of official organisations. As a result the transactions of local societies, including political organisations, are lacking in such collections. Because of its role as the first political party in the country the Liberal Party's headquarters in Antwerp contains a range of material and national significance. A scheme has been devised to arrange the archive, which may prove useful for other collections
