增强档案馆社会服务功能的对策——关于海口市档案事业发展的一点思路

档案馆的社会服务功能是指档案馆面向社会、面向公众所具有的档案服务功能。随着我国各项事业的发展，各地档案馆充分拓展自身的社会服务功能，使之融入到贯彻落实科学发展观，构建社会主义和谐社会等中央提出的一系列战略思想和战略部署中，将发挥档案馆社会服务功能、创造社会效益看作档案馆的生命力所在，为各地方各项事业的发展作出了很大的贡献，赢得了社会各界的广泛认同。因此，有效发挥档案馆的社会服务功能，对于巩固党的执政地位，实现立党为公、执政为民的根本宗旨具有十分重要的意义，对于档案事业的发展也一样具有十分重要的意义。     

档案馆社会功能的发挥

档案馆是党和国家的科学文化事业机构，是我国档案事业的主体，是永久保管8党和国家档案资料的基地，是科学研究和各方面工作利用档案史料的中心，随着新世纪的来临及社会与经济的快速发展，档案馆传统的管理模式，越来越不适应新形势的需要，迫切要求对档案馆工作进行创新和变革，逐步建立馆藏信息丰富、服务形式多样、现代科技管理、具有公共形象、为全社会服务的现代档案馆，使档案馆具有文化功能、教育功能、信息功能、科技功能、休闲功能等五项新型的社会功能，同时也要根据变化了的形势，把档案馆建设成“两个基地，一个中心”，即要把档案馆建设成为名副其实的保管党和国家档案资料的基地、对全国人民进行爱国主义和社会主义精神文明建设的教育基地以及提供利用档案资料为党和国家的中心工作、为改革开放和现代化建设服务的信息中心。     

欧美档案馆的特色与思考

欧美是当今世界档案馆事业较为发达的国家。也是档窠馆法制建设较为完善和利用现代技术较早的国家。借鉴欧美档案馆建馆特色的经验，对加快我国档案馆事业的发展是有益的、必要的。     

实现综合档案馆社会功能的思考

为社会经济、政治、科学、化等各项事业提供档案服务，是国家综合档案馆的基本社会功能。实现档案馆社会功能创造社会效益是档案馆的生命力之所在。如何在新时期实现好综合档案馆的社会功能，引发了笔的思考。     

档案馆室业务衔接中存在的问题

档案馆是国家档案事业的主体,而档案室是档案事业的基础,在整个档案事业中,只有把二者的功能紧密地结合起来,在加强档案室基础地位的前提下,进一步巩固档案馆的主体地位,把各级综合档案馆真正建设成档案种类齐全,服务功能较强的档案信息利用中心,才能适应社会和经济发展对档案工作的要求,保证档案事业的持续、快速、健康发展.

British Writings on Romania: From Travel Accounts to Studies

This article surveys a sample of sources of the information about Romania available to British readers in nineteenth century British newspapers and periodicals. It traces first contacts between the Romanian lands and Britain after the union of the principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia in 1859, then after their independence from the Ottoman Empire. The article highlights an increased Romanian interest in British periodicals, which reported and reviewed Romanian literature and scholarship. The article concludes that nineteenth century British newspapers and periodicals offer a great variety and wealth of new material previously unavailable or unknown to researchers. It also states that only a portion of a large quantity of this material has been indexed and is therefore available via the bibliographic sources mentioned in the article. The author argues for the need of a new and updated British-Romanian bibliography, which can draw on new online resources offering access to thousands of new newspapers and periodical records.

Politicking for the Public Library

ABSTRACT

In today's current political environment raising support for millage renewals, bond campaigns or even millage continuations for public libraries is affected by national politics, and a tendency towards tax aversion on principle across the country. The lessons we can learn from the governing boards of small and rural public libraries are worth raising up to a greater national consciousness. Board governance, community consciousness, and facilities management are clear and logical tools that elected boards of public libraries can use to politick for support of libraries.     

Architectures of Knowledge and Literary Tradition: A History of the Almanac in Croatia

ABSTRACT

The history of the almanac in Croatia is reconstructed through primary research in bibliographic and archival sources. The almanac is a vehicle for knowledge communication in informal contexts, engaging both oral tradition and literary forms traceable to medieval literacy and ways of structuring knowledge. The history of the almanac in Croatia reflects the changing context of the book trade, literacy, and the evolution of language. Four main stages are identified: (1) the beginning of the annual almanac in the seventeenth century; astrological almanacs reflecting the sensibility of the Baroque period; (2) the Enlightenment's stimulation of almanac publishing in the spirit of contemporary secular reforms in agriculture and education; (3) nineteenth-and twentieth-century almanac trade, showing complex and overlapping networks for the production, distribution and appropriation of printed almanacs;(4) roughly the end of World War II, when the almanac slowly moved out of the role of a popular mass medium and into specialized niches represented by regional, diaspora, and religious almanacs.

Germany's New Culture of Welcome—Our Libraries are an Essential Part of it

ABSTRACT

German authorities are expecting more than 1 million refugees by the end of 2015. These people come to Germany to seek protection and assistance and to build a new life, therefore it is important to welcome them and to assist them in their integration as soon as possible. This situation creates a versatile and perfectly fitting opportunity for cultural and educational programs, including libraries, which can play a vital role in this integration process. The key to integration is the knowledge of the German language, and the most important challenge now is to teach the necessary language skills to as many asylum-seekers as possible.     

Syndicating Rich Bibliographic Metadata Using MODS and RSS

Abstract

Many libraries use RSS to syndicate information about their collections to users. A survey of 65 academic libraries revealed their most common use for RSS is to disseminate information about library holdings, such as lists of new acquisitions. Even though typical RSS feeds are ill suited to the task of carrying rich bibliographic metadata, great potential exists for developing applications that can exploit metadata exposed to Web services via RSS. Using the MODS metadata format, entire catalog records can be seamlessly embedded in RSS 2.0 feeds. Existing tools, such as Library of Congress Java toolkits and XSLT stylesheets, can facilitate this process, while a new XSLT stylesheet may be used to create the RSS feeds complete with MODS records. As an example of the added functionality these MODS/RSS feeds can offer, records from a MODS-enriched RSS feed can be ingested into a non-RSS application such as Zotero. As more emerging library technologies use Web services architectures to handle data objects, the ability to syndicate catalog records will become more critical to providing innovative library Web services.     

Selling Women on PDAs from “Simply Palm” to “Audrey”: How Moore's Law Met Parkinson's Law in the Kitchen

This essay investigates key moments in the history of personal digital assistant (PDA) marketing to women. Analyzing promotional texts for three PDAs that received considerable press coverage from 1999 to 2001, this essay explores the cultural significance of the convergence of anxieties about women's place in the gendered division of labor with the computer industry's changing marketing imperatives. Drawing on an array of promotional texts, including news articles, press releases, promotional Web sites, and ads appearing in newspapers and magazines, this paper tells the story of how the computer industry aimed to sell smaller, faster computing devices to women while promising to mediate and thus reproduce women's overwork as paid and familial laborers. After experimenting with the PDA as a sexy fashionable gadget for working women, marketers approached women as mothers with “Audrey,” an Internet appliance designed for the kitchen.
