The Range of Subject Literature Used by Humanities Scholars

Requests made for library materials at the National Humanities Center, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, during a two-year period 1982-84 were studied in order to determine the range of subject matter (according to the Library of Congress Classification) used by each scholar. The mean number of different subjects (L.C. one- and two-letter classes) used by the average scholar was 26.3. That well over half the fellows requested materials from all five major divisions of knowledge is support for the position that centralized collections serve humanities scholars more efficiently than do decentralized ones.     

ISBN的不规范现象与图书馆的应对措施

ISBN与图书本来具有唯一性，但不少多卷书或丛书的总题名既有ISBN，各分卷(册)又有不同的ISBN，这是出版界对ISBN的滥用。图书馆在处理这类图书时，应根据不同的处理方式采用与正题名相对应的ISBN。     

中国人文学者参与数字人文动机的二元结构及行为路径

数字人文在世界范围的兴起和发展引起了学术界的广泛关注,以往研究多聚焦数字人文的技术问题,而忽略了人文学者这一重要参与主体。本文通过多案例研究探索中国人文学者参与数字人文的现状;采用半结构化访谈法和观察法,对11位典型的人文学者进行纵贯数据收集;综合运用质性分析方法,归纳出18个影响人文学者参与数字人文的主范畴,在此基础上构建了用于解释中国学者参与数字人文的相关理论。研究发现,人文学者参与数字人文的动机是二元的,包括主动动机和被动动机;在二元动机的共同作用下,人文学者参与数字人文产生了阶段性的信息需求和参与行为,进而演化出三种参与路径:阶段式假性参与、自我调节性参与和外界干预式参与;每种参与路径的产生有其发展条件和影响因素,并且可分解为不同的阶段,每个阶段对应着各自的要素特征。通过聚焦人文学者,揭示了人文学者信息需求的不确定性和信息行为的复杂性,并提供了一种基于过程研究的全面理解人文学者复杂信息行为的方法,扩展了信息行为的相关研究,也为理解数字人文的发展趋势提供了新的思路。图4。表5。参考文献56。     

Use of Electronic Information Resources Among Research Scholars in the Islamia University of Bahawalpur,Pakistan

This study examined the use of electronic resources among academic scholars of The Islamia University of Bahawalpur (IUB), Punjab, Pakistan. A quantitative survey was found most convenient and useful for this study. The total population of the study was 169 research students in IUB. The response rate was 79% and 133 utilizable responses were coded and analyzed by using SPSS software. Results of the study showed that most of the researchers (61%) used electronic resources daily for many purposes and reasons. Most of them (57%) were “satisfied” with the usage of electronic resources. Learning, education, and research were the main purposes, and easy use and easy access to documents were the major reasons of using these resources. Lack of internet connection is the major problem faced by the respondents.

Information Needs: Developing Personas of Humanities Scholars

A persona represents a group of target users that share common behavioural characteristics. The personas method, an approach to systems design, has been receiving significant attention from practitioners. However, only anecdotal evidence currently exists for the effectiveness of personas and there have been criticisms about its validity as a scientific approach to research. This paper attempts to demonstrate how incorporating personas may lead to better understand the information needs of humanities scholars. Humanities scholars in an advanced ICT environment in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan are sampled as a case. Previous studies show that the humanities scholars have a significant negative relation with ICT use; they are using it less than scientists and social scientists, and they demonstrate a significantly higher use of library facilities than other academics. There is also a lack of up-to-date international research on the humanities scholars' information needs that takes into account recent rapid increases in the availability of ICT infrastructure, especially the Internet. As such, the objective of this study is to understand the information needs of humanities scholars and the effect of the electronic environment on their information seeking behaviour using personas. This study is conducted within a conceptual framework based on an integration of existing models of information-seeking behaviour, along with additional new elements representing the information context environment, such as languages, decision to seek and format of information resources. The four personas that were uncovered in this study may be able to effectively communicate the actual information needs of the humanities scholars through the personal narrative, name, and face, which continuously will remind the academic library of what their users really want and need from their services. This study also lays the foundation for future research by identifying variables of interest, and building construct validity through the themes of information needs that emerged.

Use of Current Journals by Indian Space Technologists

Two latest sample issues of 485 journals subscribed to by the Indian Space Research Organisation (LSRO) Satellite Centre OSAC) library were monitored, and 1,120 inhouse uses and 4,475 lentout uses were recorded over three months from the date of their first display in the library. The paper explains the methodology followed, sample covered and various limitations of the study. Use of journals is analysed by means of frequency tables showing average use per title and average use per person. The study identified unused, least used and most used journals; compared inhouse use with lentout use; and examined the use of journals belonging to differing subject groups. A frequency distribution table of use over number of users is presented and the number of titles and number of subject groups in which journals are used are analysed. Finally, attention is drawn to the moderate use of journals made by Indian space technologists, with an average of about 6 uses per issue per quarter and with relatively scarce use of secondary journals.

Domain Analytic Approach to the Use of Academic Databases by Graduate Students

This study aims to investigate the variations in the search pattern of scholarly databases due to disciplinary differences among graduate students. It is a case study which employed the survey method to solicit the views of purposely selected postgraduate students from six colleges of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST). The findings of the study indicate that differences exist in the extent as well as patterns of use of journal databases among graduate students, and that search patterns are dependent on the degree of scatter of topical content. Knowledge of the internal relationships among scholarly journals will ensure that relevant databases are selected for maximum exploitation. The study provides the domain analytic approach to database use in the Ghanaian situation which is woefully deficient in the literature.

Decreasing Use of Monthly Serials After Publication Date

An exponential curve was fitted to available cumulative frequency data on lapses in months between publication and use of unbound monthly issues of library journals. From the fitted curve, estimates were made of how long after publication various percents of use have occurred. Librarians working with bound issues can use the fifty-percent estimate, eighteen months, as a reasonable time lo send journals for binding. After five years, when approximately ninety percent of use has occurred, a decision may be made to move bound copies of journals to low-access storage.
