Abstract

Die 15 laufenden deutschen Landesbibliographien dokumentieren die Literatur über die einzelnen Länder, ihre Regionen, Orte und Persönlichkeiten in regelmäßig erscheinenden Bibliographien. Neben bzw. an die Stelle der gedruckten Bibliographie ist die Online-Datenbank getreten, die über das Internet weltweit zur Verfügung steht. Die nach der Methode des KVK funktionierende Virtuelle Deutsche Landesbibliographie fasst diese Internet-Datenbanken nun unter einer gemeinsamen Suchoberfläche zusammen. Sie ermöglicht die Abfrage gleich mehrerer Bibliographien in einem Schritt und vergrößert die Treffermenge bei länderübergreifenden, regional unspezifischen sowie biographischen Fragestellungen.

Abstract

Für die Suche nach bibliothekarischer Fachliteratur steht seit diesem Jahr die »Datenbank Deutsches Bibliothekswesen (DABI)« zur Verfügung. Sie soll Angebote wie INFODATA und LISA ergänzen. Bereits seit 1995 wird am Institut für Bibliotheks- und Informationswissenschaft der Humboldt-Universität diese bibliografische Sammlung aufgebaut. Darin sind viele der wichtigsten bibliothekarischen Zeitschriften des deutschsprachigen Raumes erschlossen. Was ursprünglich eigentlich als internes Hilfsmittel für die Autoren des Handbuchs »Das Bibliothekswesen der Bundesrepublik Deutschland« gedacht war, steht inzwischen online als kostenloser Service für jeden bereit. Mit DABI soll die Informationslücke geschlossen werden, die seit der Einstellung der DBI-Datenbank DOBI entstanden ist-auch wenn DABI nicht den gleichen Umfang bietet wie das Vorgängermodell.

Abstract

National bibliographies provide interesting opportunities to search for new publications in specific scientific disciplines. This article gives an overview about the bibliographic potential of National Bibliographies in the German-speaking countries for spatial planning both in research and practice. Because grey literature plays an important role in technical disciplines, a national bibliography is a worthwhile source for information retrieval. Furthermore, this article includes a lightweight python-script to parse the bibliographic information from literature relevant to spatial planning and to measure the importance of grey literature using the SRU-API of the German National Library.

Abstract

Der folgende Vergleich von vier Zsn-CDROMs bezieht sich auf drei Produkte, die aus dem 'Online Computer Systems, Inc. (OCS = Bowker; Reed-Konzern) nämlich "Boston Spa Serials" (BSS) der British Library, "ISSN Compact" (ISN) der ISDS-Agentur zu Paris und "Ulrich's" (ULR) aus dem Bowker-Verlag, außerdem auf "Myriade" (MYR) vom Centre National du Catalogue Collectif National. Die einzelnen Vergleiche erfolgen auf zwei Ebenen: Datenbanktransparenz (Funktionalität, Bereichssuche) und Datenkonsistenz. Zusammengefaßt lauten die Ergebnisse: die Datenbankenkonsistenz läßt allenthalben zu wünschen übrig; die Datenbanktransparenz der drei OCS-Produkte ist höher als die von MYR; die Funktionalität der zwei Verlegerverbandsprodukte ISN und ULR ist weit überlegen jener der beiden Bibliotheksprodukte BSS und MYR. Eine wissenschaftliche Bibliothek mit ansehnlichen Zsn-Beständen sollte daher ISN und ULR erwerben

Abstract

The successful development of computer technology for automating Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CIK) vernacular scripts and the completion of the RLIN CJK system in 1983 marked the beginning of online operations of East Asian libraries in North America and helped keep them in the mainstream of library automation. The RLIN CJK system and the subsequently developed OCLC CJK system are building CJK bibliographic databases which have made East Asian cooperative cataloging and resources sharing a true reality. The emergence, features, current conditions, and future plans of the two CJK systems are discussed. So are the automated programs of national libraries in East Asia in terms of their building national databases for vernacular materials and designing and producing national MARCs for exchange of bibliographic information among libraries. The outlook of cooperation between the CJK systems and international exchange of CJK bibliographic information is also examined.

Abstract

The goal of this research is investigating the situation of existing bibliographic records in the online public access catalog of the National Library of Iran in order to use Resource Description and Access (RDA). A sample of 111 bibliographic records was selected for this purpose. These records were analyzed according to the RDA codes. The results reveal that more than 88% of the records show a rather good conformity with RDA, but 47% of the remaining problematic records show direct inconformity with RDA. Based on an in-depth analysis of the fields, most of the discrepancies deal with the assumed rules based on which the data is entered. The results of this study indicate that there is a good level of conformity between contents of current records and RDA, but as for the rest of the records there are some major tasks to be done.

Abstract

In 1989 a consortium of the national libraries of Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal and the UK agreed to cooperate in investigating the potential of CD-ROMs as a means of distributing and using national bibliographic data. The project, which was divided into 10 manageable sub projects, was launched in Jan 90. One major result is a draft specification of requirements for a common retrieval interface for bibliographic data, designed to match as closely as possible the needs of four user groups: acquisition librarians, cataloguers, reference librarians and end users. A second is the production of a pilot CD-ROM in UNIMARC; The Explorers, containing records from the national bibliographies of Denmark, Italy, Netherlands and Portugal. Other major products are MARC to UNIMARC conversion tables, and a multilingual interface. Valuable if sometimes painful experience was gained during the project

Abstract

Effective resourcesharing presupposes an infrastructure which permits users to locate materials of interest in both print and electronic formats. 2 approaches for providing this are union catalogues and Z39.50 based distributed search systems and computer to computer information retrieval protocols. The advantages and limitations of each approach are considered, paying particular attention to a relaistic assessment of Z39.50 implementations. Argues that the union catalogue is far from obsolete and the 2 approaches should be considered complementary rather than competitive. Technologies to create links between the bibliographic apparatus of catalogues and abstracting and indexing databases and primary content in electronic form, such as the new Serial Item and Contribution Identifier (SICI) standard are also discussed as key elements in the infrastructure to support resource sharing

Content

Volume 1 is divided into three parts. Part One (Chapters 1 and 2) constitutes an introduction to the reference process and automated reference services. Part Two, "Information: Control and Access," consists of Chapters 3 through 6 and covers an introduction to bibliographies, indexing, and abstracting services. Chapters 7 through 12 are in Part Three, "Sources of Information," which include encyclopedias, various ready reference sources, biographical sources, dictionaries, geographical sources, and government documents. It is as pointless for students to memorize details about specific reference sources, as it is necessary for them to grasp the essential areas of agreement and difference among the various forms. To this end, every effort is made to compare rather than to detail. Only basic or foundation reference works are discussed in this volume. But readers may not find all basic titles included or annotated because: (1) There is no consensus an what constitutes "basic". (2) The objective of this text is to discuss various forms, and the titles used for that purpose are those that best illustrate those forms. (3) The annotations for a specific title are duplicated over and over again in Guide to Reference Books and Guide to Reference Materials, which list the numerous subject bibliographies. In both volumes, suggested readings are found in the footnotes and at the end of each chapter. When a publication is cited in a footnote, the reference is rarely duplicated in the "Suggested Reading." For the most part, these readings are limited to publications issued since 1987. In addition to providing readers with current thinking, these more recent citations have the added bonus of making it easier for the student to locate the readings. A number of the suggested reading items will be found in Reference and Information Sources, A Reader, 4th ed., published by Scarecrow Press, in 1991. It is beyond argument, of course, that all readings need not necessarily be current and that many older articles and books are as valuable today as they were when first published. Thanks to many teachers' having retained earlier editions of this text and the aforementioned Scarecrow title, it is possible to have a bibliography of previous readings. As has been done in all previous editions, the sixth edition notes prices for most of the major basic titles. This practice seems particularly useful today, since librarians must more and more be aware of budgetary constraints when selecting reference titles. CD-ROMS are listed where available. Prices are based an information either from the publisher of the original reference source or from the publisher of the CD-ROM disc. If a particular work is available online, the gross hourly rate as charged by DIALOG is given for its use. Both this rate and the book prices are current as of late 1990 and are useful in determining relative costs. Bibliographic data are based an publisher's catalogs, Books in print, and examination of the titles. The information is applicable as of late 1990 and, like prices, is subject to change.
The ten chapters in Volume 11 are divided into 3 parts: Part One, "Information and the Community," contains two chapters to familiarize readers with various groups in the community, their information and reference needs, and how professionals attempt to serve those needs. Part Two, "Interview and Search," devotes Chapters 3 through 6 to the vital task of explaining how to isolate and understand the questions readers put to librarians as well as basic methods of finding the correct answer(s). The emphasis is an practical application of tried and true methods of interviewing and searching. Attention is given to both manual and computer searches. Chapter 6 is a guide to basic information about databases, including CD-ROMS. Part Three, "Library Instruction, Networks, Policies, and Evaluation," is comprised of the last four chapters and covers the activities of reference librarians when not responding to direct questions. This part includes hints an teaching people how to find information as well as the networks that help both librarian and user to discover what is needed. Chapter 10 discusses methods of deciding how well the individual has fulfilled the task of being a reference librarian. Only space and the fact that this text is for beginners limits what information it contains. First, many new developments and potentially important technological changes in the field of information are impossible to cover without turning to technical language and jargon quite beyond the average reader of an introductory textbook. However, basic developments are covered and explained, and there is a guide (via the footnotes and suggested readings) for those who wish to explore the future. Second, this volume is for students and working reference librarians and is intended first, foremost, and always as a pragmatic, practical approach. This is not to discount the importance of research and information science. Leaders and followers in those fields are responsible for much of what is revolutionary in references services today. There are other courses, other places where information science can be considered in depth; all that can be done here is to hint at the joy of the intellectual fields that open up to the information scientist and researcher. Students and teachers alike should be aware that much of the material covered in this book is updated, argued, and dutifully considered in several basic journals. RQ, the official voice of reference librarians of the American Library Association, excels in its coverage of the topics considered in this text. Library Journal, while more general, now offers excellent and timely articles an the new technology and its influence an librarians. The Reference Librarian, edited by the author of this text, offers specific discussions of single topics in each issue, and these have ranged from online reference services, to personnel, to problems of evaluation. And, not to be missed, is the nicely edited, always useful, and sometimes downright inspirational, References Services Review.
