    Abstract
    A new collaborative approach in information organization and sharing has recently arisen, known as collaborative tagging or social indexing. A key element of collaborative tagging is the concept of collective intelligence (CI), which is a shared intelligence among all participants. This research investigates the phenomenon of social tagging in the context of CI with the aim to serve as a stepping-stone towards the mining of truly valuable social tags for web resources. This study focuses on assessing and evaluating the degree of CI embedded in social tagging over time in terms of two-parameter values, number of participants, and top frequency ranking window. Five different metrics were adopted and utilized for assessing the similarity between ranking lists: overlapList, overlapRank, Footrule, Fagin's measure, and the Inverse Rank measure. The result of this study demonstrates that a substantial degree of CI is most likely to be achieved when somewhere between the first 200 and 400 people have participated in tagging, and that a target degree of CI can be projected by controlling the two factors along with the selection of a similarity metric. The study also tests some experimental conditions for detecting social tags with high CI degree. The results of this study can be applicable to the study of filtering social tags based on CI; filtered social tags may be utilized for the metadata creation of tagged resources and possibly for the retrieval of tagged resources.

    Abstract
    British novelist E.M. Forster once complained that long books "are usually overpraised" because "the reader wishes to convince others and himself that he has not wasted his time." To test his theory we collected reader ratings for 737 books tagged as "classic literature" on Goodreads.com, a review aggregator with 80m members. The bias towards chunky tomes was substantial. Slim volumes of 100 to 200 pages scored only 3.87 out of 5, whereas those over 1,000 pages scored 4.19. Longer is better, say the readers.

    Abstract
    Are computer science papers extended after they are published? We have surveyed 200 computer science publications, 100 journal articles, and 100 conference papers, using self-citations to identify potential and actual continuations. We are interested in determining the proportion of papers that do indeed continue, how and when the continuation takes place, and whether any distinctions are found between the journal and conference populations. Despite the implicit assumption of a research line behind each paper, manifest in the ubiquitous "future research" notes that close many of them, we find that more than 70% of the papers are never continued.

    Abstract
    Die seinerzeit 19-jährige Studentin Katrin Scheibe war 2015 Teilnehmerin an einem Seminar der Uni Düsseldorf über "Social Live"-Streaming Services und hat mit anderen Studenten zusammen eine Live-Übertragung einer Sitzung über YouNow durchgeführt. Innerhalb des rund einstündigen Programms schnellte die Zuschauerzahl auf weit über 200 hoch. Die meist jugendlichen Zuseher empfanden es als höchst interessant, eine Uni-Lehrveranstaltung hautnah miterleben zu dürfen. Ebenso waren die Studenten von dem aktuellen und zeitnahen Thema begeistert und publizierten ihre Forschungsresultate unter einem Pseudonym (Mathilde B. Friedländer) in internationalen Fachzeitschriften.

    Abstract
    Der Grund für die Einführung der DDC war die Umstellung auf Freihand durch den damals bevorstehenden Umbau und Ausbau der Bibliothek. Durch die Errichtung von 3 Tiefgeschoßen war es möglich, das gesamte oberirdische Magazin für das Publikum zu öffnen, wodurch die Publikumsflächen von vorher weniger als 200 m**2 auf nun 2200 m**2 ausgeweitet werden konnten. Zur Ausgangssituation: Wir hatten damals eine Freihand-Bibliothek im Umfang von einigen tausend Nachschlagewerken im Lesesaal, die wir einige Jahre zuvor - nach einem Umbau des Lesesaals - grob nach der 3-stelligen DDC aufgestellt hatten. Aber im Grunde genommen war das Thema Freihand für uns vollkommenes Neuland.

    Abstract
    This study explores the use of online newsgroups and discussion groups by people in situations of information poverty. Through a qualitative content analysis of 200 posts across Internet groups, we identify topics and information needs expressed by people who feel they have no other sources of support available to them. We uncover various health, well-being, social, and identity issues that are not only crucial to the lives of the people posting but which they are unwilling to risk revealing elsewhere-offering evidence that these online environments provide an outlet for the expression of critical and hidden information needs. To enable this analysis, we first describe our method for reliably identifying situations of information poverty in messages posted to these groups and outline our coding approach. Our work contributes to the study of both information seeking within the context of information poverty and the use of Internet groups as sources of information and support, bridging the two by exploring the manifestation of information poverty in this particular online setting.
