网络时代信息资源的采集、描述与质量控制--以东北林业大学重点学科导航库为例

网络信息资源已逐渐成为高等院校图书馆文献资源建设的一个重要内容，本文以东北林业大学学科导航库为例，系统地讨论了网络信息资源的采集、描述及其质量控制。     

数字环境下图书馆信息服务质量的评价

本文对影响用户满意度的因素、图书馆信息服务质量评价原则以及几种有代表性的评价模式进行研究探讨，并尝试创建了一套公共图书馆信息服务质量评价指标体系。     

刍议读者信息获取自由

读者具有获取信息的自由，而这自由又是相对的。读者信息获取自由受法律的限制，也要法律来保护，图书馆有通过技术力量、服务意识等方面的提高来保障读者信息获取自由的责任，而读者也有维护信息自由获取环境的责任。

学籍档案与学生就业

自上世纪90年代以来，我国就面临着严峻的就业形势和巨大的就业压力，大中专毕业生的就业工作越来越被社会所关注。因“涉及千家万户，关系到人民群众的切身利益”，毕业生的就业率及就业层面也就日益成为社会评价各个高校的重要指标。管理和使用好毕业生的档案信息资料，冲破档案利用的种种局限，将隐藏的、静态的档案信息开发成系统的、有价值的和动态的档案信息，不仅对大中专的就业工作起着积极的促进作用，也势必为今后各级各类院校档案工作的发展开辟新的途径。     

Investigating the quality of interactions and public engagement around scientific papers on Twitter

This study explores science communication on Twitter by investigating a sample of tweets referring to academic papers in five different scientific fields. The specifications of science communicators on Twitter, the characteristics of those who initiate actions (by tweeting), the extent and quality of reactions (retweeting), individual and group interactions, and the distribution of tweets across types of engagement in the process of science communication (i.e., dissemination, consultation, and evaluation) were explored. A broad array of actors is involved in the communication of science on Twitter, with individual citizens and individual researchers playing an important role. In principle, this is promising for creating direct interaction, which can be difficult through more traditional mass media. The vast majority of communication activities regarding academic papers is undigested dissemination with almost no sign of debate, contestation, or collective reflection. Another general finding of this study is that bot accounts play a major role in the science communication landscape on Twitter.     

In-house consultation to support professionals’ responses to child abuse and neglect: Determinants of professionals’ use and the association with guideline adherence

This study examined the presence and strengths of determinants associated with consultation of an in-house expert on child abuse and neglect (CAN) by preventive child health care professionals who suspect CAN. This study also assessed the relationship between in-house CAN expert consultation and professionals’ performance of six recommended activities described in a national guideline on preventing CAN for preventive child health care professionals. A total of 154 professionals met the study’s inclusion criteria. They filled in a questionnaire that measured in-house consultation practices and twelve determinants associated with the professional, the in-house expert, and the organizational context. Bivariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed. Almost half of the participants (46.8%) reported to consult the in-house expert in (almost) all of their suspected CAN cases. Professionals who reported better recollection of consulting the in-house expert (i.e. not forgetting to consult the expert) (p = .001), who were more familiar with consultation (p = .002), who had more positive attitudes and beliefs about consultation (p = .011) and who reported being more susceptible to the behavior (p = .001) and expectations/opinions (p = .025) of colleagues regarding in-house expert consultation were more likely to consult the in-house expert. Furthermore, in-house expert consultation was positively associated with two of six key guideline activities: consulting the regional child protection service and monitoring whether support was provided to families. The implications of these results for improving professionals’ responses to CAN are discussed.     

Does working during higher education affect students’ academic progression?

This paper examines the effect of working during higher education on academic progression, in terms of number of credits acquired by first-year university students in Italy. We discuss different contrasting hypotheses on the role of employment during university on academic outcomes: the zero-sum perspective, the reconciliation thesis, the positive and the negative selection to work hypotheses. In the empirical part we analyze data from the Eurostudent survey, which collected data on a representative sample of university students who were enrolled in the academic year 2002/03, after the implementation of the ‘Bologna Process’. We use a negative binomial regression model considering work experience as an endogenous multinomial treatment. Results indicate that, conditional on observed covariates (socio-demographic variables, school-related and university-related variables), there is a positive self-selection into employment, especially for low-intensity work. Traditional multivariate regressions show a penalty in academic progression only for high-intensity workers, but once accounted for unobserved heterogeneity also the low-intensity work experience appears to negatively affect academic progression.
