图书馆外文小语种图书编目工作初探

外文小语种图书编目工作是图书馆系统工程的重要组成部分,目前还存在着诸如专业小语种编目人员缺乏、编目资源和工具不足、编目系统不够完善等缺陷,只有采取有效的应对措施,逐一解决这些问题,才能推动外文小语种图书编目工作的顺利发展。     

著录项目设置的依据

著录项目的设置是一部文献著录规则的重要内容之一，它直接影响检索工具的质量，进而影响到读者对检索工具的使用效果。论文通过对国内外六部著录规则所设著录项目进行比较、分析，从揭示文献特征，帮助读者识别和检索文献、文献自身的发展变化情况及一国的目录传统等三个方面论述了著录项目设置的依据，以期为中外著录规则的修订提供参考。     

国内联机联合编目的SWOT分析及发展路径探讨

信息技术的发展、读者需求的变化对图书馆的服务方式产生了巨大的影响,联机联合编目工作也不例外。运用SWOT战略分析工具,试图从内部环境和外部环境两方面对国内联机联合编目工作进行剖析,并对联机联合编目的未来发展路径做进一步的探讨。     

现代信息环境下编目的价值

网络与信息技术快速发展,编目环境扩及到相关信息领域,应推动编目对象、理念、工具、形式及书目记录功能的改变,以适应读者需求.知识组织整序作为图书馆的核心竞争力,是现代信息环境下编目工作最重要的价值体现.     

电子资源批量编目的实践及研究

认为批量编目是促进电子资源获取的有效手段。针对国内电子资源批量编目的实践进行调研,涉及数据质量、相关工具、对书目系统质量的影响、面临的挑战、发现系统对电子资源批量编目的影响等内容。对调研结果进行分析,发现批量编目遇到的最普遍的挑战是数据质量问题,各馆质量评估及数据编辑修改的做法有所差异,整体上国内图书馆对数据质量的重视程度还不够。最后总结国外相关实践对我们的启示。     

我国联机编目的现状研究

从现有技术条件、现有法律法规和实施状况等三个方面综述了我国联机编目的现状,主要以我国目前已建成的两大联机编目系统为例,即国家图书馆联机编目中心和中国高等教育文献保障中心联机编目系统,以期对我国今后联机编目的发展有所借鉴。     

Mantis Project

Abstract

The Mantis project is developing a toolkit for building Web-based cataloging systems with arbitrary metadata definitions and interfaces. By requiring that end users have only standard Web browsers, the project is aimed at lowering the barriers to acceptance, distribution, and use of these tools. By emphasizing that metadata can assume many different formats, the project shows that generalized metadata tools can be used for many applications.     

Single-Record versus Separate-Record Approaches for Cataloging E-Serials in the OCLC WorldCat Local Environment

Libraries have been making decisions on whether to use a single- or separate-record approach for cataloging e-serials based on what works best in their local library integrated systems and which approach is likely to save cataloging time. However, in the new network-level cataloging and OCLC WorldCat Local environment, we need to make cataloging decisions based on what works best in a network-level platform. This article discusses the OCLC WorldCat Local environment, the concept of network-level cataloging, and why Washington State University has responded by migrating from a single-record to separate-record cataloging policy for e-serials.     

Cataloging Computer Files as Serials

Due to the nature of serials, cataloging machine-readable records that address the "serial" aspect of any material can be challenging as well as frustrating. The cataloging of computer files also presents unique difficulties. A serials cataloger discusses the advantages of treating computer files as serials for cataloging and processing purposes, and outlines methodologies for doing so. She examines general concerns and addresses issues pertaining to both direct and remote access to the materials. Giving hints from her own experience, she suggests tools and resources available that can assist both catalogers and non-catalogers in the interpretation of serial computer file records.     

Thomas Mann's Contributions to Current Library Debates on Cataloging and Bibliographic Control

This article examines the writing of Thomas Mann, Reference Librarian at the Library of Congress, regarding the enduring value of traditional methods and tools of research libraries, particularly online public catalogs, professional cataloging, and Library of Congress Subject Headings and pre-coordinated subject strings. One major contention asserted by Mann is that keyword searching on the Internet, while very valuable when used judiciously, should not be used as a substitute for traditional catalogs and cataloging. Also examined are the deprofessionalization of cataloging, inadequate ideas about library users, dangers to serious research, digitization, and the enduring value of books.     

巧妙利用网络资源提高西文编目工作的质与效

本文列举了六大类西文编目人员必备的工具及网络资源,并论述了它们的使用方法及对提高西文编目工作质量与效率所起到的重要作用.     

对简化编目的看法

图书馆简化编目是必要的,但在选取具体的简化方式、方法上需要慎重,应注意以下几个方面:简化编目不能只以读者的使用为评判标准;简化编目不应以牺牲书目数据的质量为代价;不能以期刊编目情况作为简化图书编目的理由;构键编目系统时不能随意篡改字段的功能;简化编目必须是在CNMARC格式允许的范围内进行。     

音像资料联合编目规则探讨

通过比较研究地方版文献联合采编协作网(CRLNet)几个有代表性成员馆的音像资料编目数据发现,目前国内图书馆的音像资料编目存在各自为政、编目数据大相径庭的现象,其主要原因是没有统一的编目规则。为统一CRLNet音像资料的著录规则,深圳图书馆征求各成员馆的意见并结合音像资料工作实践提出,音像资料的著录可以参见著录电子资源的某些字段,但是主体仍应该遵循录音、录像资料的编目规则。     

浅谈联机联合编目规则及我馆图书编目工作

本文主要对国家图书馆联机联合编目中心修改后的联机编目规则进行评述，并结合我馆实际，提出在联机联合编目工作所遇到的问题及其解决方法。     

CALIS与国家图书馆丛编项著录的差异分析

在编目规则国际化的趋势下,统一编目著录规则已经成为国内编目界的当务之急。目前,CALIS和中国国家图书馆两家中心馆的编目著录规则存在一些不同,一些有识之士已经对此提出己见,但却遗漏了丛编项著录的差异。尤其是当丛编项作为重要的著录项时,它选取、使用的字段及著录的信息等方面的差异更为严重,给书目数据检索、共建共享带来了不便。因此,CALIS和国家图书馆应该统一思想,争取早日制订出统一的编目规则。     

A Research Agenda for Cataloging: The CCQ Editorial Board Responds to the Year of Cataloging Research

The cataloging and classification community was called to highlight 2010 as “The Year of Cataloging Research,” and specifically was challenged to generate research ideas, conduct research, and generally promote the development of new research in cataloging. Cataloging & Classification Quarterly has become the most influential journal of research in cataloging and classification since its inception in 1981. The idea behind the research reported here was to give the CCQ editorial board an opportunity to present its point of view about research for cataloging. A Delphi study was conducted in three stages during the 2009–2010 academic year. Members were asked to define the key terms “cataloging,” “evidence,” and “research,” and to develop a research agenda in cataloging. The results reveal a basic core definition of cataloging perceived as a dynamic, active process at the core of information retrieval. An eight point research agenda emerges that is forward-looking and embraces change, along with top-ranked calls for new empirical evidence about catalogs, cataloging, and catalog users.     

Exploring Uncharted Waters

The importance of Internet resources in public services work is a frequently discussed topic. But access to and effective use of Internet resources is crucial to current and future work of technical services personnel. The workshop examines commonly used Internet procedures and explores Internet tools available for acquisitions and cataloging personnel.
