“…As for bibliographic control's support for management functions, these functions can and increasingly do happen in separate but linked systems. Juha Hakala, in his 2004 article on the emerging heterogeneous system environment, wrote "in one vision of the future, even the monolithic ILS will be split into smaller pieces … integrated systems will be replaced by modular ones, which by definition are a perfect fit for networked or consortial environments" [62]. Recently Roland Dietz and Carl Grant, presidents of Endeavor and VTLS respectively, described the "dis-integrating world of library automation" and called for library systems to be more compatible with other systems [63].…”

“…The growing complexity of the library systems marketplace is shown by the different providers of such systems, which included individual libraries, library consortia, library systems vendors and subscription agents/aggregators (Collins, 2008). Other systems that libraries might be using now to manage access to digital content -in addition to their existing integrated library system -include a digital object or digital asset management system (DOMS or DAMS) for locally-produced content, an information retrieval portal or federated search engine for cross-searching of databases (Hakala, 2004) and a virtual learning environment (VLE, also known as a learning or course management system), typically used by academic libraries to manage access to electronic course readings or 'ereserves' and to information literacy tutorials (Black, 2008).…”

The concept of collection development in the digital world

Collection Development in the Digital Age

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The concept of collection development is central to the professional practice of librarianship as the whole notion of a library is fundamentally associated with the idea of a collection, to the extent that the words 'library' and 'collection' are almost synonymous. Other terms such as 'information centre' 'learning centre' or 'discovery centre' are often used now instead of 'library' and terms such as 'information resources' may be substituted for 'library collections', but the activities and processes traditionally associated with collection development are still essential to the effective functioning of contemporary library, information, learning and knowledge services, even though they may look and feel quite different to their historical counterparts. Our concern here is to explore the concept of collection development in the digital library and information environment and in particular to examine how thinking and practice in this vital area of library and information management have developed and changed in response to advances in digital technologies. What are the similarities and differences between collection development yesterday and today? Investigating such questions should help to prepare us for dealing with the collections of tomorrow.The chapter therefore starts by examining a few definitions of the library as a collection to demonstrate the centrality of collection development to library and information professionals. It moves on next to the more problematic issue of collection development as a concept, showing how professional discourse on the subject has suffered from confused terminology. It then uses a convenient four-phase framework to review the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on libraries, concentrating on effects on collections and their development. The final part of the chapter returns to academic and practitioner conceptions of collection development in digital environments, concluding with a set of questions for reflection on the future of collection development.

Esse estudo analisa as perspectivas teóricas dos estudos sobre interoperabilidade semântica da Ciência da Informação e identifica a aproximação destas com as abordagens ontológica e/ou epistemológica. É uma pesquisa bibliográfica e exploratória que emprega a técnica de análise de conteúdo e análise bibliométrica. A partir da análise de 54 artigos sobre interoperabilidade semântica indexados na Web of Science e classificados na categoria Information Science Library Science, identificou-seque as pesquisas sobre interoperabilidade semântica na área de CI são majoritariamente aplicadas e, muitas vezes, limitam-se a descrever o desenvolvimento de processos e produtos sem se preocupar em apresentar os fundamentos que estão por trás dos mesmos. A maior parte das pesquisas apresenta pouca ou nenhuma fundamentação teórica sobre a linguagem ou sobre o que se entende por objetividade.
