    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

    Abstract
    With the proliferation of new information channels such as the Web, e-mail and wireless, it is becoming increasingly important to understand the impact of these technologies within information-seeking and retrieval contexts. This issue of Aslib Proceedings presents research that begins to address the notion of "information disparity". It aims to weave a common thread between the challenges of reconciling disparate information needs in an environment complicated by fragmented or disparate data sources. This article lists several emerging trends that should begin to challenge traditional notions of our research field.

    Abstract
    Examines the challenge for librarians presented with members of the public wanting to make use of the Internet, who may anticipate that finding information on the WWW is a relative straightforward matter. Looks at the kind of guidance needed in using both the Windows operating system and Web browsers. Points out that users will have to learn how to cope with the frustrations inherent to the current realities of the Internet, and specific problems such as the need for absolute precision when entering Web addresses. Reference interviews may be required to determine whether the Web is the best source for the information sought in a particular instance, to help formulate appropriate search strategies, and evaluate and present the information that users retrieve

    Abstract
    Internet use research has focused on user surveys and novice learner studies, using survey, experimental, and ethnographic methods. They share a focus on user-based categories in the affective and cognitve domains. Information behaviour has an affective component that influences the direction of cognitive processing through hierarchically organized goals, characterized by both an individual and a cultural component. Research in human-computer interaction is evolving a user-centred methodology for system design and instruction that focuses on integrating affective and cognitive user variables to increase productivity, creativity, and human growth

    Abstract
    When we were all facing the turn of the century and the somewhat larger turn of the millennium, we left behind epochs of colonialism, imperialism, capitalism, nazism and racialism. Not that the ideologies mentioned does no longer exist, but their impact as grand narratives has gone and they now exist as fragmented discursive parts of their former, illusive hegemony. Parts that have been thrown into the pits of post modern complexity. The 21st century holds no answers, no new meaning, at most it provides human communication a certain self reflectivity due to the increasing egocentrism and individuality of people (i.e. still mostly western people). Another symptom of the loss of grand narratives is a feeling of loss of meaning in everyday life, as well as the state of democracies around the world. Democracy shivers in its void between anarchy and repressive dictatorship. The description 'information age' provides the times we are in with a useful sticker. It tents both back in time e.g. the late 20, century digitalisation and forward in time by givingr origin to the contemporary discourse of social semantics i.e. Dream society, Knowledge society, Post modern society, Risk society, Hypercomplex society etc. The phrase 'information age' implied the introduction of a paradigm shift, and now it is still here showing that paradigms do not shift, they slide. This paper outlines a manifest for librarians and librarianship of the information age. The information age puts the spotlight on the librarian, both regarding classical tasks such as classification and cataloguing as well as new tasks such as systems analysis and design or database searching.
    Complexity establishes a paradox between the tasks of preserving old knowledge (memory function) and facilitate cognitive dissonance in order to challenge established knowledge claims and create new knowledge (catalyser function). Through complexity all social systems organisations, discourse communities, ideologies) face an environment (or surrounding) that is characterised through its instability and contingency. What is real, or presumable real from one point of view can appear completely different from another point of view. Different discourses of meaning and significance float, blend and separates themselves form each other the arena of communication. The library has to both keep record of what has happened, as well as take part in the ongoing battles for new discursive hegemonies. The unity of the paradox of memory and catalysing is described as managing complexity and requires a conscious and constant oscillation between order and chaos, stability and change. The role of the librarian is defined through an analysis of contemporary social semantics as well as the technical, ethical, cultural and epistemological challenges facing us as librarians and information specialists.

    "Es gibt Daten, Informationen und Fakten. Wenn man mir eine Zahlenreihe vorsetzt, dann handelt es sich um Daten: unterscheidbare Einheiten, im Fachjargon: Items. Wenn man mir sagt, dass diese Items stündliche Temperaturangaben der Aare im Berner Marzilibad bedeuten, dann verfüge ich über Information - über interpretierte Daten. Wenn man mir sagt, dies seien die gemessenen Aaretemperaturen am 22. August 2016 im Marzili, dann ist das ein Faktum: empirisch geprüfte interpretierte Daten. Dieser Dreischritt - Unterscheiden, Interpretieren, Prüfen - bildet quasi das Bindemittel des Faktischen, «the matter of fact». Wir alle führen den Dreischritt ständig aus und gelangen so zu einem relativ verlässlichen Wissen und Urteilsvermögen betreffend die Dinge des Alltags. Aber wie schon die Kurzcharakterisierung durchblicken lässt, bilden Fakten nicht den Felsengrund der Realität. Sie sind kritikanfällig, sowohl von der Interpretation wie auch von der Prüfung her gesehen. Um bei unserem Beispiel zu bleiben: Es kann durchaus sein, dass man uns zwei unterschiedliche «faktische» Temperaturverläufe der Aare am 22. August 2016 vorsetzt.

    ""Wir dürfen nicht passiv zuschauen, sondern müssen unser Schicksal selbst in die Hand nehmen", erklärte UN-Generalsekretär Kofi Annan am Mittwoch bei der Eröffnung des "Weltgipfels über die Informationsgesellschaft". Annan sieht einen "historischen Wandel in der Art zu leben, zu lernen, zu arbeiten, zu kommunizieren und Geschäfte abzuwickeln". Delegierte von 175 Staaten, darunter mehr als 60 Staats- oder Regierungschefs, sind zu dieser ersten Weltkonferenz über Information und Kommunikation nach Genf gekommen. Einschließlich der Bosse von Medienkonzernen und der Vertreter von Nicht-Regierungs-Organisationen nehmen rund 15 000 Personen an der Großveranstaltung teil, deren Vorbereitung fünf Jahre in Anspruch nahm. Kofi Annan bemängelte die Schwachstellen beim Aufbau einer weltumspannenden Informationsgesellschaft, die nicht nur mit der technologischen Kluft zwischen dem Norden und dem Süden zu erklären seien. Auch die Inhalte der Leistungen klafften aus-' einander. Ein großer Teil der Webseiten im Internet hätten keinerlei Bezug zu den wirklichen Bedürfnissen der Menschen. Fast 70 Prozent dieser Webseiten seien in englischer Sprache abgefasst. Damit würden lokale Stimmen und Ansichten verdrängt. - Frauen im Nachteil - Außerdem bestehe in der Informationsgesellschaft ein großer Unterschied zwischen den Geschlechtern, sagte Annan, weil Frauen und Mädchen weniger Zugang zu den modernen Technologien hätten als Männer und Jungen. Dies gelte sowohl für die Industriestaaten wie für die Entwicklungsländer. Am Eröffnungstag ergriffen neben anderen politischen Führern der ägyptische Präsident Hosni Mubarak und dessen iranischer Amtskollege Mohammad Khatami das Wort. Die beiden trafen sich anschließend zu vertraulichen Gesprächen über den Nahostkonflikt. Für Robert Mugabe, den' Präsidenten von Simbabwe, musste die Schweiz eine Sonder-Einreiserlaubnis erteilen, weil der Diktator in den meisten europäischen Ländern Aufenthaltsverbot hat. Bei der Fahrt Mugabes von seinem Hotel ins Konferenzzentrum gab es ein Handgemenge zwischen seinen Leibwächtern und Fotografen. Bundeskanzler Gerhard Schröder und Wirtschaftsminister Wolfgang Clement mussten ihre Reise nach Genf wegen der innenpolitischen Debatte in Berlin absagen. Im Namen Deutschlands will am Donnerstag Rezzo Schlauch, Parlamentarischer Staatssekretär im Wirtschaftsministerium, eine Rede halten. Unter den prominenten Politikern beim Weltgipfel sind der französische Ministerpräsident Jean-Pierre Raffarin, der nigerianische Präsident Olusegun Obasanjo und der "Maximo Lider" Kubas, Fidel Castro. Insgesamt sind die westlichen Industriestaaten auf niedrigerer Ebene vertreten als die Entwicklungsländer. Der für Öffentlichkeitsarbeit zuständige stellvertretende UN-Generalsekretär Shashi Tharoor meinte dazu: "Denen, die nicht kamen, kann ich nur sagen, dass sie eine Gelegenheit verpasst haben." Die meisten stritti- gen Fragen waren allerdings vor Eröffnung der Konferenz bereinigt oder an 'Arbeitsgruppen weitergeschoben worden. So wurde gegen den anfänglichen Widerstand Chinas die Meinungs- und Pressefreiheit bestätigt. Die chinesischen Behörden wachen genau darüber, welche Webseiten im Internet die gewöhnlichen Bürger anklicken dürfen. Verhandlungsteilnehmer erwarten nun, dass Peking seine einschränkenden Praktiken in Einklang mit der Erklärung von Genf (unser Bild zeigt die Installation "Hello World" im Genfer See) bringt. Auf die zweite Runde des Informationsgipfels im Jahr 2005 in Tunis vertagt wurde die Frage, wer das Internet "verwalten" soll. Derzeit registriert die mit einer Lizenz der US-Regierung ausgestattete kalifornische Firma "Interne Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers" (Icann) die Anmeldungen von so genannten "Domaines": Vor allem Brasilien, China, Indien und Südafrika wollen diese Kontrolle den USA entreißen und eine Agentur der Vereinten Nationen mit dem Internet-Management betrauen. Die vorgelegten Pläne sind aber derzeit noch recht vage."

    Abstract
    Trust in information is developing into a vitally important topic as the Internet becomes increasingly ubiquitous within society. Although many discussions of trust in this environment focus on issues like security, technical reliability, or e-commerce, few address the problem of trust in the information obtained from the Internet. The authors assert that there is a strong need for theoretical and empirical research on trust within the field of information science. As an initial step, the present study develops a model of trust in digital information by integrating the research on trust from the behavioral and social sciences with the research on information quality and human- computer interaction. The model positions trust as a key mediating variable between information quality and information usage, with important consequences for both the producers and consumers of digital information. The authors close by outlining important directions for future research on trust in information science and technology.

    Abstract
    Colours, icons, graphics, hypertext links and other multimedia elements are variables that affect information search strategies and information seeking behaviour. These variables are culturally constructed and represented and are subject to individual and community interpretation. Hypothesizes that users in different communities (in intercultural or multicultural context) will interpret differently the meanings of the multimedia objects on the Internet. Users' interpretations of multimedia objects may differ from the intentions of the designers. A study in this area is being undertaken

    Abstract
    Experiences of time and temporalities in contemporary life are analysed, with Floridi's conception of the infosphere as a central concept. The effects of instantaneous communication and digital information are shown to result not simply in the obvious acceleration of many aspects of life, but in multiple temporalities. The informational spaces of Floridi's hyperhistorical time form a new time-based society, with our informational activities expressed in linear, cyclic, re-cyclic, and iterative processes. Examples from the information sciences, particularly information seeking and "slow information," are given, and an outline model for time literacy is presented.

    Abstract
    Godert notes that, having survived a period where we were drowning in information, we seem to be in a period where we are happily surfing the Internet. This communication considers the social implications of this change in fundamental metaphors about our relationship to information. It is first proposed that, though a paradigm shift has not occured, the significance of the change should not be minimized. The similarities and differences between surfing and drowning are then considered. Questions suggested by these similarities and differences are offered for consideration
