- Abstract
- Die Informationswissenschaft, eine Disziplin ohne Theorie, ohne Bezugsrahmen und ohne Klärung ihres Grundbegriffes. Zahlreiche FachvertreterInnen der Informationswissenschaft bereiten erst recht das Feld für Hate Speech und Fake News vor - mit ihrem ungeklärten (Un)begriff der "Information", - mit ihrer Forderung nach "Informationskompetenz", ein Terrain, das eigentlich der Bibliothekswissenschaft zusteht, - mit ihrer Theorielosigkeit, - mit ihrer unkritischen Ablehnung einer ernsthaften Auseinandersetzung sowie - mit ihrem ungeklärten Domänenverständnis.

- Abstract
- Information als "Wissen in Aktion" zu definieren, scheint der Informationswissenschaft zu reichen. Und das in einer Welt, wie das Fachportal woxiwon (https://synonyme.woxikon.de/synonyme/information.php) ausweist, bei über 460 Synonyma für den Begriff "Information", die in fast dreißig Gruppen geclustert sind. Cluster 1: "Aufmerksamkeit" mit den Dimensionen der Nutzererwartungen "Aktualität", "Werbung", "Schlagzeilen" sowie "Provokation durch Fake & Klatsch". Cluster 2: "Verbundenheit" Cluster 3: "Gemeinsamkeit" Cluster 4: "Intellektuelle Leistung"

- Abstract
- Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze and re-direct recent schematic and empirical scholarship on Habermas' theory of the public sphere in library and information science (LIS). Design/methodology/approach This paper conducts a critical analysis of the relevant literature in light of Habermas' origination and use/purpose of the public sphere concept. Findings The authors examined here produced a schematic operationalization of the public sphere that thinned the concept, but in turn, that schematization has produced insight into the civil society functions and communications of libraries, both within and without. For this work to be meaningful, the considerations and contexts of democratic society must be reinserted. Research limitations/implications Further explorations of the relationship between the public sphere and civil society as they are manifested around and in libraries is called for. Additionally, Weigand's approach to producing data/evidence on the public sphere and libraries should be furthered. Practical implications Understanding the role and function of libraries in democratic societies is essential for libraries to play a productive democratic role in those societies and thus, in guiding them. Social implications This paper helps to situate the bewildering circumstances of libraries who face both popular support and broad political-social questioning of their role and place. Originality/value This paper arguably interjects a more sophisticated and nuanced theoretical picture of the public sphere than prior precis presented in the LIS literature have undertaken. It also engages a unique set of empirical-theoretical students from another perspective in order to deepen and shift that research discourse.

- Abstract
- Informationskompetenz in den Bibliotheken und in der Informationswissenschaft. Es ist erschreckend, dass im Zeitalter der vieldiskutierten "Desinformationen" und "Fake News" im Medienbereich der einzige Beitrag der Informationswissenschaft in der Betonung einer irgendwie ausgestalteten "Informationskompetenz", manchmal ergänzt um eine ebenso imaginäre "Medienkompetenz" besteht. Man möchte sich gern zum verbindlichen Entscheider darüber erklären, was wahre und falsche Information, was Hate Speech und Fakten sind. Der Türöffner dafür soll das bibliothekarisch besetzte Feld der "Informationskompetenz" sein, dass man nunmehr für den Gesamtbereich der "Information" besetzen möchte. Die ursprüngliche Beschränkung der bibliothekarischen Domäne der Informationskompetenz auf eine berufsrelevante Vermittlung von InformationsSUCHkompetenz wird dafür geopfert. Der Ursprung des Begriffes "Informationskompetenz" liegt im Bibliotheksbereich und sollte dort beheimatet bleiben.

- Abstract
- Wir haben uns in der Informationsgesellschaft gemütlich eingerichtet: Information steht allenthalben auf Abruf bereit. Gleichzeitig kann man ein Wiederaufkommen von Populismus und Radikalismus, von Gewalt und enthemmter Kommunikation beobachten. Das Buch widmet sich der Frage, ob in der Vorstellung einer Informationsgesellschaft selbst und in den damit verbundenen Praktiken ein Strickfehler verborgen ist, der Populismus und Radikalismus befördert.

- Abstract
- Im Anschluss an die einführenden, auf Information bezogenen Kapitel in der 5. und 6. Ausgabe der Grundlagen (Kuhlen 2004; Kuhlen 2013) soll das pragmatische Verständnis von Information hier weiter theoretisch abgesichert werden.1 Um es auf den Punkt zu bringen: Information wird nicht über einen (wie auch immer begründeten) Wahrheitsbegriff bestimmt. Was Information ist, was also Nutzer oder Nutzerinnen in Situationen informationeller Unsicherheit oder Unterbestimmtheit tatsächlich aus der auf sie einstürmenden oder ihnen zur Verfügung gestellten Informationsangebote verwenden, was also zu Information wird, entscheiden letztlich sie - wobei das sicherlich nicht immer autonome Entscheidungen sind, dafür sind die darauf wirkenden externen Kontextfaktoren zu groß.

- Abstract
- Purpose In The Invisible Substrate of Information Science, a landmark article about the discipline of information science, Marcia J. Bates wrote that ".we are always looking for the red thread of information in the social texture of people's lives" (1999a, p. 1048). To sharpen our understanding of information science and to elaborate Bates' idea, the work at hand answers the question: Just what does the red thread of information entail? Design/methodology/approach Through a close reading of Bates' oeuvre and by applying concepts from the reference literature of information science, nine composite entities that qualify as the red thread of information are identified, elaborated, and related to existing concepts in the information science literature. In the spirit of a scientist-poet (White, 1999), several playful metaphors related to the color red are employed. Findings Bates' red thread of information entails: terms, genres, literatures, classification systems, scholarly communication, information retrieval, information experience, information institutions, and information policy. This same constellation of phenomena can be found in resonant visions of information science, namely, domain analysis (Hjørland, 2002), ethnography of infrastructure (Star, 1999), and social epistemology (Shera, 1968). Research limitations/implications With the vital vermilion filament in clear view, newcomers can more easily engage the material, conceptual, and social machinery of information science, and specialists are reminded of what constitutes information science as a whole. Future researchers and scientist-poets may wish to supplement the nine composite entities with additional, emergent information phenomena. Originality/value Though the explication of information science that follows is relatively orthodox and time-bound, the paper offers an imaginative, accessible, yet technically precise way of understanding the field.

- Abstract
- Purpose With the shift to an information-based society and to the de-centralisation of information, information overload has attracted a growing interest in the computer and information science research communities. However, there is no clear understanding of the meaning of the term, and while there have been many proposed definitions, there is no consensus. The goal of this work was to define the concept of "information overload". In order to do so, a concept analysis using Rodgers' approach was performed. Design/methodology/approach A concept analysis using Rodgers' approach based on a corpus of documents published between 2010 and September 2020 was conducted. One surrogate for "information overload", which is "cognitive overload" was identified. The corpus of documents consisted of 151 documents for information overload and ten for cognitive overload. All documents were from the fields of computer science and information science, and were retrieved from three databases: Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Digital Library, SCOPUS and Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA). Findings The themes identified from the authors' concept analysis allowed us to extract the triggers, manifestations and consequences of information overload. They found triggers related to information characteristics, information need, the working environment, the cognitive abilities of individuals and the information environment. In terms of manifestations, they found that information overload manifests itself both emotionally and cognitively. The consequences of information overload were both internal and external. These findings allowed them to provide a definition of information overload. Originality/value Through the authors' concept analysis, they were able to clarify the components of information overload and provide a definition of the concept.

- Abstract
- Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify key countries and their focal research fields on the information divide. Design/methodology/approach Literature was retrieved to identify key countries and their primary focus. The literature research method was adopted to identify aspects of the primary focus in each key country. Findings The key countries with literature on the information divide are the USA, China, the UK and India. The problem of health is prominent in the USA, and solutions include providing information, distinguishing users' profiles and improving eHealth literacy. Economic and political factors led to the urban-rural information divide in China, and policy is the most powerful solution. Under the influence of humanism, research on the information divide in the UK focuses on all age groups, and solutions differ according to age. Deep-rooted patriarchal concepts and traditional marriage customs make the gender information divide prominent in India, and increasing women's information consciousness is a feasible way to reduce this divide. Originality/value This paper is an extensive review study on the information divide, which clarifies the key countries and their focal fields in research on this topic. More important, the paper innovatively analyzes and summarizes existing literature from a country perspective.

It first deduces possible units from an existing conceptualization of information, which defines information as the combined product of data and meaning, and then tests the usefulness of these units via two empirical investigations, one with a group of scholarly papers and the other with a sample of scholarly information users. Findings The results show that, on defining an information unit as a piece of information that is complete in both data and meaning, to such an extent that it remains meaningful to its target audience when retrieved and displayed independently in a database, it is then possible to formulate a hierarchical typology of units for scholarly information. The typology proposed in this study consists of three levels, which in turn, consists of 1, 5 and 44 units, respectively. Research limitations/implications The result of this study has theoretical implications on both the philosophical and conceptual levels: on the philosophical level, it hinges on, and reinforces the objective view of information; on the conceptual level, it challenges the conceptualization of work by IFLA's Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records and Library Reference Model but endorses that by Library of Congress's BIBFRAME 2.0 model. Practical implications It calls for reconsideration of existing operational units in a variety of library and information activities. Originality/value The study strengthens the conceptual foundation of operational information units and brings to light the primacy of "one work" as an information unit and the possibility for it to be supplemented by smaller units.

- Abstract
- This article presents a brief history of the term "information" and its different meanings, which are both important and difficult because the different meanings of the term imply whole theories of knowledge. The article further considers the relation between "information" and the concepts "matter and energy", "data", "sign and meaning", "knowledge" and "communication". It presents and analyses the influence of information in information studies and knowledge organization and contains a presentation and critical analysis of some compound terms such as "information need", "information overload" and "information retrieval", which illuminate the use of the term information in information studies. An appendix provides a chronological list of definitions of information.

- Abstract
- Information behavior theory covers different aspects of the totality of information-related human behavior rather unevenly. The transitions or trading zones between different types of information activities have remained perhaps especially under-theorized. This article interrogates and expands a conceptual apparatus of information making and information taking as a pair of substantial concepts for explaining, in part, the mobility of information in terms of doing that unfolds as a process of becoming rather than of being, and in part, what is happening when information comes into being and when something is taken up for use as information. Besides providing an apparatus to describe the nexus of information provision and acquisition, a closer consideration of the parallel doings opens opportunities to enrich the inquiry of the conditions and practice of information seeking, appropriation, discovery, and retrieval as modes taking, and learning and information use as its posterities.

- Abstract
- The individualistic lens refers to the understanding of problematic information as something that is clearly identifiable, with objective criteria of measurement. This article argues for adding a non-individualistic lens for understanding information. The necessity for adding a non-individualistic lens grows from that the existing individualistic lens appears inadequate to make sense of information phenomenon, in particular when it comes to understanding problematic information. Non-individualistic is proposed as a complementary perspective, which needs to be further developed conceptually. To begin such development, this article directs information professionals' attention to the promising concept of information ecology. More specifically, this article pulls resources from philosophy of information (Floridi's infosphere) and information ethics (Capurro's Angeletics) to illustrate existing conceptualizations of information ecology. Information ecology appears to align with this sociotechnical view that information researchers have started to develop in the most recent years, though arguably information ecology may have an even broader scope. Lastly, this article also points out that the conceptualization of information ecology needs to be aware of, and cautious of the philosophical assumption that is relied on for understanding information.

- Abstract
- Purpose The purpose of this study is to discuss the concept of information in relation to temporality within the context of climate change communication. Furthermore, the paper aims to highlight the empirical richness of information as a concept by analysing its use in context. Design/methodology/approach The discussion is based on 14 semi-structured interviews with initiators and collaborators of 6 open letters on climate change published in 2018-2019. By taking three specific notions the interviewees introduced-fast food information, information quality and information gap-as the analytical point of departure, the study aims for a contextual understanding of information grounded in temporal sensitivity. Findings The paper finds that information in the context of open letters is informed by different, and at times contradicting, temporalities and timescapes which align with various material, institutional and discursive practices. Based on this finding, the paper argues that notions of information are intrinsically linked to the act of communicating, and they should be viewed as co-constituting each other. Originality/value The paper contributes with an empirically informed discussion regarding the concept of information as it is used in a specific context. It illustrates how "information" is far from being understood in a singular fashion, but is made up of multifaceted and at times contradictory understandings. Ultimately, they correspond to why and how one communicates climate change information.
