Abstract

Until the 1980s, the handling of documentary information in business was usually split up among 4 unrelated independent departments: the library; archives; secretarial services; and reproduction/printing. The introduction of new technology allows the integration of these operations into a single system; comprising subsystems for: production of internal documents; acquisition and storage of external documents; information retrieval; archive creation and maintenance; and circulation of information between departments, based on local computer networks. In reality, not many businesses are making use of technology available to set up such integrated systems because of the lack of common standards for equipment and software, which makes internal and external communication unreliable. This problem may be resolved in the near future, as a result of discussions now in progress at international level.

Abstract

Report of a study comparing 2 methods of indexing: LEXINET, a computerised system for indexing titles and summaries only; and manual indexing of full texts, using the thesaurus developed by French Electricity (EDF). Both systems were applied to a collection of approximately 2.000 documents on artifical intelligence from the EDF data base. The results were then analysed to compare quantitative performance (number and range of terms) and qualitative performance (ambiguity of terms, specificity, variability, consistency). Overall, neither system proved ideal: LEXINET was deficient as regards lack of accessibility and excessive ambiguity; while the manual system gave rise to an over-wide variation of terms. The ideal system would appear to be a combination of automatic and manual systems, on the evidence produced here.

Abstract

Extracts from the official report of a study investigating the situation in French public libraries, The main reason for this evaluation is th proposed review of the role of the Bibliothèque Nationale, in relation to developing the role of France in the world information market. The results reported here cover the production and diffusion of bibliographic information. The overall picture is of a lack of coordination between products available and user needs, failure to establish standards for formats and for information technology equioment. The concluding recommendations emphaisis the need for coordinating initiatives by the various organisations involved in producing/diffusing bibliographic information, and establishing common standards to allow free exchange between bibliographic networks. Further studies are in hand to establish guidelines for future policies in more specialised library sectors.

Abstract

The social sciences documentation centre (CDSH) of the French National Research Centre initiated the publication in 1988 of a psychology periodicals catalogue, Catalogue thématiques des revues de psychologie. Discusses the problems involved in setting up such a catalogue, with specific reference to deciding how a printed source can best complement its parent on-line data base: in this case, CDSH's PSYSIS. The decision to produce the catalogue has been largely precipitated by low uptake of the data base. Considerable attention has been given to delimiting coverage (French and foreign specialist periodicals, multi-disciplinary periodicals); defining descriptors (involving decisions about who the periodical is aimed at); and what information to include under each entry. The main problems, still to be solved, concern lack of adequate software (only a relational data base would be fully satisfactory); and inadequate information about user requirements from hard copy material as opposed to on-line data bases. The results of this preliminary evaluation, albeit tentative, are of considerable relevance to the delopment of strategies for diffusing information on scientific periodicals in general.
