The Classification of Literature in the Dewey Decimal Classification

The classification of literature by language, while apparently eminently sensible, can fragment national literatures and create groupings in which parts of the literatures of other nations are subordinated to that of the country of the "mother tongue." Classifying literature in this way reflects, and implicitly endorses, literary colonialism. The exception which the Dewey Classification makes of American literature in English undermines the rule, and is not matched by similar treatment for African literature, for example. A more flexible approach to classifying literature is called for, which will recognize place as the ground of community and culture while not forgetting the importance of language as an element in national and cultural identity.     

林业类科技核心期刊文献引用研究

为全面、深入分析文献引用对林业类科技核心期刊质量的影响,通过资料分析,采用数理统计方法,选择同一层次的5家林业类科技核心期刊,对其2014年全年的参考文献的引用情况(篇均引文量、引文类型、引文语种、引文的时效性、期刊自引率)进行统计和分析.结果表明:5家期刊参考文献的引用情况不尽相同,篇均引文量需要提高;参考文献来源类型主要是期刊;语种以中文为主,其次是英文,其他语种引用比较少;参考文献时效性和期刊自引率控制较为合理,但有提升空间.通过统计数据分析,希望期刊编辑重视刊发文章引文的各项指标,从而提高刊发文章质量.

Faculty

Abstract

Teaching faculty are a key resource for reference librarians. This paper includes a discussion of major forces affecting reference service as well as suggestions on ways for librarians to become better acquainted with teaching faculty. One benefit of making these connections is that when faculty know and have confidence in librarians, they are more likely to urge their students to get help at the desk, to schedule course-related instruction sessions, and to let librarians know if they have a particularly difficult or complex assignment. Another benefit is that such connections often lead to increased opportunities, from participation in campus-wide initiatives to the development of collaborative projects and other scholarly work. As a librarian relatively new to the profession, I know that such connections with teaching faculty have enriched my own career.     

基于关系原则的古籍命名方式考论-以《汉书·艺文志》为例

《汉书·艺文志》通过分类目录,将众多文献厘定为各种关系存在。没有脱离其他相关文献而独立存在的孤立文献,相应地,基于独立文献个体特征的命名并不能作为文献名称基本与否的标准,基于类别关系的命名比基于单个文献的命名更为基本。"关系"强调同质化,由同质化导致的古籍书名既有可能因精于求同而更为深刻地揭示出古籍的内容性质,也有可能因疏于别异而泯灭古籍的个性内涵。     

学术数据库的利用分析

近些年来，由CALIS牵头组织的中国大学集团共引进了24个学术数据库。这些数据库的引进为各学校的教学和科研活动的开展起到积极的文献保障作用，但是如果不能对数据库的利用情况进行有效的分析和评价，则无法确切地知道数据库的使用状况，甚至给学校的财政带来浪费。本文将以全文数据库Elsevier ScienceDirect OnSite在东南大学使用情况为例，探讨文献资源对东南大学重点学科的满足度、用户所在学科分布和下载文献的时间分布，数据库的购置成本和效益分析等，以期望提高学术数据库的利用水平。

These articles have focused on the integration and introduction of services such as blogs, wikis, social networking Websites, RSS, and podcasting. This article reviews the content of this literature to see which articles demonstrate a qualitative or quantitative benefit to the libraries where they are used.     

科技文献跨语言推荐模型研究

信息超载和语言障碍影响我国科研人员对外文科技文献的有效获取,如何提高获取效率成为亟待解决的问题。个性化推荐能很好地处理信息超载现象,但当前国内外相关研究都基于单一语种进行,多语种环境下的推荐研究非常缺乏。本文提出网络环境和海量数据背景下的科技文献跨语言推荐模型,并论证用户兴趣特征抽取、语言转换和混合推荐等步骤。利用Web日志挖掘技术,分析基于多种信息行为的整合分析方法抽取用户兴趣特征,以分类表作为参考体系建立用户兴趣表示模型,在用户—特征词转化为用户—类目矩阵的基础上开展推荐研究。     

The State of Cataloging Research: An Analysis of Peer-Reviewed Journal Literature, 2010–2014

The importance of cataloging research was highlighted by a resolution declaring 2010 as “The Year of Cataloging Research.” This study of the peer-reviewed journal literature from 2010 to 2014 examined the state of cataloging literature since this proclamation. The goals were to determine the percentage of cataloging literature that can be classified as research, what research methods were used, and whether the articles contributed to the library assessment conversation. Nearly a quarter of the cataloging literature qualifies as research; however, a majority of researchers fail to make explicit connections between their work and the missions of their libraries.

Development of methodologic tools for planning and managing library services. IV. Bibliography of studies selected for methods and data useful to biomedical libraries

This selective bibliography is intended to serve as a guide to empirical studies reporting data and methods that can be used by medical librarians to assess their own efforts objectively and to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of services they offer. The decision rules that governed selection of items for the bibliography are specified in detail. A total of 178 items published between 1915 and mid-1968 met the selection criteria. The list of items is supplemented by a keyword index derived from titles. Half the items are journal articles; a third of these articles appeared in the Bulletin, and most of the remainder in thirteen other library and information science journals. Most of the non-journal items are technical reports issued by the organization that conducted or sponsored the work. The characteristics of this literature suggest that few medical libraries, unless they are part of a university system that includes the collection of a library or information science school, are likely to have quick access to the literature base needed to support a comprehensive program of self-evaluation studies and the continuing education of their own staff. Regional medical libraries might well undertake to ensure both ready access to, and awareness of, literature on the scientific aspects of librarianship.     

Concept analysis of gender,feminist, and women's studies research in the communication literature

In recent decades a distinctive literature has accumulated discussing the role of gender, feminism, and women's studies‐related research (GFWS) in the communication field; however, questions have persisted about how this research is represented in the field's publications. Contributing to the literature on the sociology of the field's scholarship, the history of the GFWS literature was sketched in a field test of a concept mapping technique that tracks patterns of publication and isolates conceptual associations within the titles of GFWS articles. The data for the study were significant concepts extracted from titles of 31,500 articles appearing in 70 communication journals and annuals within the period 1970 to 1997. The study accomplished several goals. First, it examined the accuracy of historical arguments about GFWS scholarship, arguments that bear on the issue of fair treatment of GFWS scholarship within the field. Second, it examined GFWS articles by publication source to assess patterns of representation by journal. Third, it provided a response to requests by some scholars working in the area for a thorough survey of the dimensions of the GFWS literature. Findings support the idea that GFWS scholarship is represented by a unique constellation of conceptual relationships. Feminist scholarship is found to have a history unto itself separate from that of studies of gender or sex differences, and has entered the literature in two distinctive eras. As well, feminist research was found to have a unique and uneven pattern of representation in the field's literature. By identifying threads of theoretical connection between articles in a widely dispersed literature, the concept mapping methodology is argued to provide one means for offsetting the fragmentation of the discipline's scholarship that has occurred throughout the last three decades as a result of the rapid proliferation of new specialized communication journals.     

No citation advantage for monograph-based collaborations?

It is widely believed that collaboration is advantageous in science, for example, with collaboratively written articles tending to attract more citations than solo articles and strong arguments for the value of interdisciplinary collaboration. Nevertheless, it is not known whether the same is true for research that produces books. This article tests whether co-authored scholarly monographs attract more citations than solo monographs using books published before 2011 from 30 categories in the Web of Science. The results show that solo monographs numerically dominate collaborative monographs, but give no evidence of a citation advantage for collaboration on monographs. In contrast, for nearly all these subjects (28 out of 30) there was a citation advantage for collaboratively produced journal articles. As a result, research managers and funders should not incentivise collaborative research in book-based subjects or in research that aims to produce monographs, but should allow the researchers themselves to freely decide whether to collaborate or not.     

Scholarly Journals Should Be Treated as a Public Good

SUMMARY

The thesis that scholarly journals should be treated as public goods is based on five arguments. First, scholarly journal articles have many public good characteristics, and many of their private good characteristics are created by choice. Second, our current system undersupplies students with scholarly journals. Third, the supply chain for journals from publisher to user is burdened by many deadweight losses. Fourth, online publishing might reduce those deadweight losses enough to fund a system freely available to scholars. Finally, treating scholarly journals as public goods can meet the needs of all stakeholders. Explanations of the economic concepts of public good, deadweight loss, and Pareto optima are given to support the arguments.

外文地方文献研究

在当今社会的开放状态下,要用广域的本土观对待地域文化研究,充分吸收外来文化,为地域文化研究注入新鲜血液。因此,图书馆界应该重新审视并挖掘外文地方文献独特的文献价值和研究利用价值,充分利用智力资源、拓宽经费渠道并提高人员素质,使地方文献工作向更深层次递进,以更好地服务于地方经济、地方文化等各个研究领域。     

Bibliography:

Before the information explosion caused the rise of serials as a phenomenon in libraries, serials were often seen from a reference point of view, causing there to be little dynamic interchange between the concepts of "serials" and "reference." More recently, because of the rise in serials consciousness due to the number and bibliographic complexity of serials, reference work has been often seen from a serials viewpoint, causing a polarization and active interaction between the concepts "reference" and "serials." Several articles and book selections concerning the relationship between serials and reference and covering the 10 year period between 1976 and 1987 are here annotated. Each annotation summarizes the argument of the article covered and relates it to the arguments of other articles covered, and to the arguments of the main essay.
