Abstract

Es mag etwas egomanisch anmuten, wenn ich beschreibe, wie ich mir nicht nur das wissenschaftliche Publizieren der Zukunft vorstelle, sondern auch weitergehende Überlegungen zu Open Access und Open Science skizziere, die über das eigentliche Anliegen des vorliegenden Sammelbandes (Taubert/Weingart 2016) hinausgehen. An dieser Stelle sollte man umfangreiche Datenanalysen zum Publikationsverhalten und daraus abgeleitete Prognosen erwarten. Aber dies geschieht bereits in anderen Beiträgen zu diesem Sammelband in ausführlicher Weise, und so nehme ich mir die Freiheit zu einer ganz subjektiven Meinungsäußerung, die auf langjähriger Beschäftigung mit dem Thema basiert. Ich werde Grundzüge aufzeigen und prinzipielle Überlegungen anstellen, nicht aber auf die genaue Rolle der Beteiligten, die konkrete Ausgestaltung der zugehörigen Informationstechnik oder auf Details der rechtlichen Rahmenwerke eingehen.

Abstract

Digital image formats are now seen not only as feasible alternatives to print and microfilm formats for traditional preservation purposes, but also as the technology bearing the portential for unlimited access and distribution. Examines the requirements for browsing and exploration in the digital library of the future; and whether the open bookshelf model of a classified physical collection is suitable for the universal virtual library or whether new models of explanation are needed

Abstract

Von verschiedenen wissenschaftspolitischen Expertengremien sind in den letzten Jahren Analysen und Entwicklungsvorschläge zur Situation der wissenschaftlichen Informationsinfrastrukturen in Deutschland vorgelegt worden. Der Wissenschaftsrat thematisierte 2012 mit seinen jüngsten "Empfehlungen zur Weiterentwicklung der wissenschaftlichen Informationsinfrastrukturen in Deutschland bis 2020" vor allem Fragen der strukturellen Organisation und Koordination von Einrichtungen aus dem Bereich der Informationsinfrastrukturen. Inwieweit die Empfehlungen des Wissenschaftsrats dabei auf Belange des wissenschaftlichen Bibliothekswesens eingehen, soll im vorliegenden Beitrag betrachtet werden. Dazu werden die Empfehlungen des Wissenschaftsrats zunächst in den bibliothekspolitischen Kontext eingeordnet (Abschnitt 1.1 und 1.3) und in ihren relevanten Aspekten vorgestellt (Abschnitt 1.2). In einer kritischen Analyse werden daraufhin wesentliche Punkte des Papiers diskutiert (Abschnitt 2), die im Hinblick auf ihre Auswirkungen auf das wissenschaftliche Bibliothekswesen in Deutschland bewertet (Abschnitt 3) werden. Als tendenziell problematisch erweisen sich dabei u. a. die Aussagen des Wissenschaftsrat zum Thema Open Access sowie zu den Finanzierungsmodalitäten künftiger Informationsinfrastrukturen und ihrer vorgeschlagenen zentralen Steuerung.

Abstract

Considers the possible potential for service development in public libraries offered by the Internet and describes the traditional models of network access and their lack of relevance to public libraries. Describes 2 current research projects currently being undertaken by public libraries to assess the value of the Internet to their services; ITPOINT, a project being conducted at Chelmsley Wood Library, Solihull, UK; and CLIP, the Croydon Libraries Internet peoject. Presents a range of new service paradigms and suggests that public libraries will become even more central to people's lives than they are today

Abstract

This paper explores cataloging in the Age of Google. It considers what the technologies now being adopted mean for cataloging in the future. The author begins by exploring how digital-era students do research-they find using Google easier than using libraries. Mass digitization projects now are bringing into question the role that library cataloging has traditionally performed. The author asks readers to consider if the detailed attention librarians have been paying to descriptive cataloging can still be justified, and if cost-effective means for access should be considered.

Abstract

Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), a system originally designed as a tool for subject access to the Library's own collection in the late nineteenth century, has become, in the course of the last century, the main subject retrieval tool in library catalogs throughout the United States and in many other countries. It is one of the largest non-specialized controlled vocabularies in the world. As LCSH enters a new century, it faces an information environment that has undergone vast changes from what had prevailed when LCSH began, or, indeed, from its state in the early days of the online age. In order to continue its mission and to be useful in spheres outside library catalogs as well, LCSH must adapt to the multifarious environment. One possible approach is to adopt a series of scalable and flexible syntax and application rules to meet the needs of different user communities

Abstract

CyberLib is the vision of a library whose essential functions, objects and services are offered in an artificial created environment. Making available different work environments that meet the individual user's needs is a very special characteristic of the capacity of CyberLib. Every vision has to be checked for its economic feasibility. How can CyberLib charge its users for its services with the clear target of making a profit and thus enter an open and measurable competition with other CyberLib in order to create a calculable and transparent information market? The paper will discuss different possibilities, such as automomous profit centers, the coexistence of conventional information sources and CyberLib and other forms of financing, e.g. by means of advertising

Abstract

The form in which knowledge is described and encapsulated has a major impact on the design of libraries and the functions performed within them. New technology and the logocentric, practicentric and democentric elements of the information infrastructure have created profound changes compelling the flexible design of libraries. The book of the 17th century, television in the 20th century, and perhaps the Internet in the 21st century, open the door to self education with little economic discrimination. New roles for libraries are emerging that require flexibility in building design for moving collections, services, functions, and equipment; restructuring staff organizations, introducing new services associated with new technology; eliminating unnecessary or unaffordable services; and housing other institutional departments within the structure of the 'new' library

Abstract

Ich bedanke mich, dass die Redaktion der NfD das Angebot angenommen hat, das Originalmanuskript meines Artikels in der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung abzudrucken, der am B. April unter dem von der FAZ-Redaktion vergebenen, gewaltigen (als Ironie nicht ganz so leicht erkennbaren) Titel "Abendländisches Schisma" erschienen ist. Dieser Artikel hat für viel Aufsehen gesorgt-in der Bandbreite von "total support' bis "total hate". Die überwiegende Reaktion aber war "gut, dass nun die Diskussion eröffnet ist". Zwar habe ich die Referenz auf den Artikel schon in INETBIB zur Verfügung gestellt, aber die Klientel der NfD liest das nicht unbedingt. Daher noch einmal, damit auch die Dokumentare und Informationswissenschaftler sich beteiligen können. Ich bin aufgefordert worden, meine in diesem Artikel sicherlich nur sehr holzschnittartig formulierten Gedanken auszuführen und in einer bibliothekswissenschaftlichen Zeitschrift zu veröffentlichen. Das werde ich auch tun. (Schon jetzt kann über http://www.inf-wiss.uni-konstanz.de/People/RK/rk-gutachten.html mein Tübinger Gutachten von Ende 2001 zur Informationsinfrastruktur an Hochschulen eingesehen werden, das damit auch auf die Rolle der Bibliotheken eingeht). Hier nur eine Anmerkung in eigener Sache. Wie die meisten NfD-Leser wissen werden, bin ich nicht nur langjähriges DGI-Mitglied, sondern auch seit Beginn im Vorstand des HI (Hochschulverband für Informationswissenschaft), der auf meine Initiative 1990 in Konstanz gegründet wurde. Wir sind dabei - und ich unterstütze diese Bemühungen - eine Organisationsform zu finden, mit der DGI und HI zu einer innovativen Zusammenarbeit, auch in institutioneller Sicht, kommen können. Zusätzlich ist ja auch nicht zu verkennen, dass es von Seiten der DGI intensive und richtige Annäherungen an das Bibliotheksgebiet gibt, so dass als Ergebnis eines transitiven Übergangs auch Informationswissenschaft und Bibliothekswissenschaft näher in Kontakt kommen, nachdem fatalerweise in den 70er, 80er und teilweise auch noch in den goer Jahren eher Abgrenzungspolitik betrieben wurde. Daher hat mich zum einen etwas irritiert, dass einer der Kritiker (eher in der "hate"Ecke anzusiedeln) meinen Text so gelesen hat, als ob ich dem Bibliotheksgebiet die Konstanzer informationswissenschaftlichen Absolventen als die eigentlichen Informations- und Bibliotheksexperten andienen wollte und dafür das Bibliotheksgebiet abgewertet habe. Das - so weiter die Kritik- sei doch absurd, zumal von Seiten der Informationswissenschaft noch nie etwas für das Bibliotheksgebiet Sinnvolles publiziert worden sei. Verkehrter kann man es kaum lesen. Bibliotheks- und Informationswissenschaft sitzen zweifellos in einem Boot. Die Kritik an der Bibliothekswissenschaft kann auch an die Informationswissenschaft weitergegeben werden. Die Fachwelt der DGI fordere ich auf, in den Diskurs mit einzusteigen-was in dem Artikel letztlich angesprochen ist, ist wohl das Zukunftsthema nicht nur für unsere Disziplin schlechthin, wie wir methodisch, organisatorisch und institutionell mit Wissen und Informationsversorgung, hier vor allem mit Blick auf Forschung und Lehre, umgehen wollen.

Abstract

In their rush to embrace the new technologies that have facilitated remote access to catalogues and document delivery services and are now ushering in the virtual library, librarians and users are unwittingly undermining the institution of the library. Suggests that the library is becoming invisible and its larger purposes risk being lost. At the same time, takes issue with the view that the great libraries of america are being 'trashed' by the rush towards technology and addresses some of the issues raised; such as how to balance the obligation to collect with the need to provide access, how to better serve the scholarly community, and how to enhance the library in the face of its declining visibility. Concludes by urging librarians, library users and funding authorities to discuss anew how the library may serve the intellectual needs of diverse users

Abstract

Among the proposed innovations in the Clinton Administration's plans to develop a National Information Infrastructure is the creation of, and support for, digital or electronic libraries to store and provide access to the vast amounts of information expected to made available over the 'information superhighway'. Although the exact nature and future architecture of such libraries is still a matter for experimentation (and debate), there are several pioineering efforts underway to establish electronic libraries and to provide access to them. This paper describes one such effort underway at the University of California at Berkeley. In collaboration with four other universities we are developing interoperable electronic library servers containing the Computer Science technical reports for each participant and making them available over the Internet using standard protocols

Abstract

Is there a future for the library cataloger? For the past thirty years this debate has increased with the continued growth of online resources and greater access to the World Wide Web. Many are concerned that library administrators believe budgetary resources would be better spent on other matters, leaving library users with an overabundance of electronic information to muddle through on their own. This article focuses on the future of the cataloging profession and its importance to the needs of library patrons.

Abstract

In the future, frontier research in many fields will increasingly require the collaboration of globally distributed groups of researchers needing access to distributed computing, data resources and support for remote access to expensive, multi-national specialized facilities such as telescopes and accelerators or specialist data archives. There is also a general belief that an important road to innovation will be provided by multi-disciplinary and collaborative research - from bio-informatics and earth systems science to social science and archaeology. There will also be an explosion in the amount of research data collected in the next decade - 100's of Terabytes will be common in many fields. These future research requirements constitute the 'eResearch' agenda. Powerful software services will be widely deployed on top of the academic research networks to form the necessary 'Cyberinfrastructure' to provide a collaborative research environment for the global academic community. The difficulties in combining data and information from distributed sources, the multi-disciplinary nature of research and collaboration, and the need to move to present researchers with tooling that enable them to express what they want to do rather than how to do it highlight the need for an ecosystem of Semantic Computing technologies. Such technologies will further facilitate information sharing and discovery, will enable reasoning over information, and will allow us to start thinking about knowledge and how it can be handled by computers. This talk will review the elements of this vision and explain the need for semantic-oriented computing by exploring eResearch projects that have successfully applied relevant technologies. It will also suggest that a software + service model with scientific services delivered from the cloud will become an increasingly accepted model for research.
