Stop the Press: The Future of Journalism Is Not Post-Political

Discussions of the future of journalism center on new economic models, digital modes of distribution, and how to attract young audiences. But what of how future journalism might represent, describe, and critique issues of race, gender, class, and sexuality? And what of the race, gender, class, and sexuality of future journalists themselves? Issues of industry survival take center stage in debates about journalism’s future. Issues of integrity, wisdom, and increased levels of equity in coverage and employment have less success finding the spotlight. Concern over how to deliver news in the coming decades generally trumps debate about who might deliver it and the character of what might be delivered. The importance of political economy analyses of new journalism, coupled with keeping gender, race, and sexuality identities front and center, is emphasized.     

Scaling up Content Analysis

ABSTRACT

Employing a number of different standalone programs is a prevalent approach among communication scholars who use computational methods to analyze media content. For instance, a researcher might use a specific program or a paid service to scrape some content from the Web, then use another program to process the resulting data, and finally conduct statistical analysis or produce some visualizations in yet another program. This makes it hard to build reproducible workflows, and even harder to build on the work of earlier studies. To improve this situation, we propose and discuss four criteria that a framework for automated content analysis should fulfill: scalability, free and open source, adaptability, and accessibility via multiple interfaces. We also describe how to put these considerations into practice, discuss their feasibility, and point toward future developments.     

医学科研论文一稿多卖案例分析与思考

针对《陆军军医大学学报》近期发现的4起同一稿件不同单位不同作者多次投稿行为(一稿多卖)进行分析,并追踪其2017年10―12月来稿中代投论文退稿后的发表情况。结果显示,截至2022年8月,93篇代投论文退稿后在CNKI数据库中能检索到有41篇正式发表,其中有6篇发表论文署名作者及单位与退稿稿件署名不同,提示存在一稿多卖。医学期刊编辑应重视对此类稿件的甄别和审查,注意辨别稿件的真实性;建立医学期刊学术诚信平台,鼓励论文数据共享;加强对作者的教育和警示;建议国家制定对第三方中介的惩处政策,严格防范第三方买卖论文的学术失信行为。     

编辑应重视“修改后发表”的返修稿

针对返修稿存在的修改质量未达到要求、修改后文字重复率增高、修改后论文"焕然一新"等问题,认为编辑应从重视与上一稿的比对、对改动较大的修改稿再次进行学术不端检测,依靠专家的帮助等3个方面来更好地对无须专家再审的返修稿质量进行把关。     

NaNoWriMo in the AcadLib: A Case Study of National Novel Writing Month Activities in an Academic Library

The J. D. Williams Library at the University of Mississippi launched a pilot program during the 2010 National Novel Writing Month, hosting related events to determine community demand and how such efforts could be quantified. Using participant-submitted word counts and the event's own tools, researchers were able to ascertain that such events had a positive impact on participants’ writing output, at least by the standards of National Novel Writing Month itself, and that there is sufficient community interest to hold future events in an academic library setting.     

Looking inside of the Utah COVID-19 digital collection as a community archive

Using the Utah COVID-19 Digital Collection as a case study, this study investigates the nature of the materials collected in a community archive during COVID-19, examining their unique contributions to building public history. The authors collected and analyzed metadata from 812 collection items created between March and June of 2020. Findings show that the local community's active voluntary participation was noteworthy. The local community submitted more than half of all collected materials. Even when submissions from the campus community decreased during summer break, the local community's submissions remained steady, helping to broaden the collection's geographical and topical coverage. The authors conclude by offering their recommendations for COVID-19 community archiving projects and future research directions.     

The Use of Gifts in a Medium Sized Academic Library

Use of gifts by library patrons can be a measure of how worthwhile a gifts program is. The program can be evaluated by cost-effectiveness and use methods, and collecting data for such methods is feasible. The data collected from one academic library suggest that factors such as the availability of multiple copies and the time lag between printing and donating of a gift might affect its use.     

A Glossary of Medical Library Jargon

Based on submissions from forty-seven geographically representative medical school libraries, the authors have compiled a glossary of jargon used in medical school libraries in the United States. This glossary will serve as a unique reference tool of particular use to the novice medical librarian.     

Determining Dimensions of Reality: A Concept Mapping of the Reality TV Landscape

This research examines the dimensions underlying reality-based TV programs as a first step towards uncovering the reality programming subgroups that might exist in viewers' minds and the themes that might distinguish them. Two samples—one of students and one of city residents—engaged in a sorting task of 33 reality-based programs. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) indicated two underlying dimensions along which audiences think about reality TV (romance and competitiveness), which were supported by subsequent analyses. These findings both help frame future theoretically driven research on reality-based programming and offer insight into how research interested in the effects of programming themes might proceed.

International journal editors and East Asian authors: two surveys

Countries in East Asia – specifically China, Japan, and South Korea – are rapidly emerging as major contributors to global research output. However, owing to barriers in language and culture, it is possible that authors from these countries face unique challenges in getting published. Moreover, as submissions from these countries increase, journal editors may be able to spot some trends in the problems encountered when processing these submissions. This study presents the results of two surveys – one involving non‐native English‐speaking authors from East Asia and another involving international journal editors. The surveys were designed to throw light on the challenges East Asian authors face in the publication process and the perceptions journal editors have of submissions from East Asian countries. Here, we present and discuss the survey results, highlight gaps in the perspectives of authors and journal editors, and make recommendations to bridge these gaps.

Growing a NACO Program: Ingredients for Success

ABSTRACT

What factors are critical to the success of expanding a NACO program? The University of Florida Libraries' experience with NACO, the Name Authority arm of the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC), points to some important variables. As members of NACO, institutions contribute name and series authorities to the national authority database, which greatly increases the pool of available authorities for libraries to use. In 1987, we became a member of the NACO program, and faithfully submitted a few hundred authorities each year for nine years. In 1996, things began to change as we refocused our program objectives, and our submissions grew, tripling by 1998/99. The dynamics that created this environment of change are instructive for librarians and managers hoping to breath new life into existing programs.     

科技期刊审稿委员会的构建与管理办法探讨

审稿人是稿件科学性和创新性的评价者,在控制期刊学术质量方面发挥着举足轻重的作用。我国的期刊审稿人主要扮演“外”审专家的角色,不是期刊的“编内”人员。为了解决这一问题,许多国外期刊成立了审稿委员会,使得期刊审稿人成为期刊编委会的一部分。本文首先提出审稿委员会的概念并介绍了一些期刊的具体做法,接着分析了科技期刊成立审稿委员会的必要性和可行性,并对审稿委员会的运作提出了一些设想和建议。     

Improving Communication Between Postgraduate Researchers and the University Library: A Case Study at De Montfort University Library and Learning Services

ABSTRACT

A well-established postgraduate researcher development program has existed at De Montfort University for many years. Library and Learning Services include modules on literature searching skills and critical appraisal. However, we recognized that researchers seemed to be disengaged with the services on offer. This concern informed a research project that considered the ways we could communicate better with researchers based on their needs. This paper explores the essential components of successful communication, such as context, timeliness and communication channels. An action-research approach was taken including focus groups and online surveys. The outcomes highlighted three significant crisis points, emphasizing the key times when researchers might need some intervention. The findings of this research identified the distinct needs of Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs) and how relevant and timely communication from the library can meet these needs. It also considers the impact of how communication has improved with researchers as a result of some of our interventions.

Finding the Natural Interface: Graduate and Public Education at One University Natural History Museum

University natural history museums are much like their public museum counterparts, yet they differ in some important ways including how they are funded and staffed and how they serve their parent institutions. These circumstances provide some unique opportunities for university‐based natural history museums but they also present challenges, especially for their public education goals. While there are surely a variety of creative solutions for resolving these dilemmas, this article explores how the graduate program at the University of Colorado Museum may be seen as an example serving as an interface between diverse facets of the Museum and its several audiences and constituencies. The usefulness of the program as a model and as a means of training and nurturing future museum professionals is discussed.
