文化研究视野中的传媒研究

英国文化研究学派的兴起为传媒研究提供了一条新路径。该学派重视传媒研究 ,与传媒在现代社会中的重要地位及该学派重视通俗文化及文化与权力之间关系的学术传统有关。该学派在文本分析、符号学方法及受众理论方面为传媒研究做出了巨大贡献。     

传播图景中的制度——由英尼斯的媒介理论谈起

本文分三部分 ,第一部分认为 ,在英尼斯的媒介理论中 ,对制度层面的论述是单向和不充分的 ,需要给予补充。第二部分对审视传播媒介与制度系统关系的各种理论视角做了归纳和解释。第三部分提出传播现象的制度分析框架 ,并以舆论的形成为例进行了分析。作者认为传播制度对于传播媒介和社会生活的正常运转具有重要意义 ,并通过制度分析提供了一种可以“去魅”的解释。     

图书馆信息服务与科技论文质量的相关性研究

通过对中瑞两国医学论文引文数量、时间以及被引次数的分析,量化说明中国科技论文与发达国家相比存在的质量差距。认为中国医学论文依据的信息不足,所提供信息量少,利用信息时间滞后,从而影响到科研论文的可信度和新颖性,使论文的可利用价值低。分析形成的原因,指出图书馆信息保障能力影响着科技论文质量和创新。

Benefits to Collection Development Librarians from Collaborating with “Community-Embedded” Librarians-In-Training

The 21st century collection manager encounters serious challenges in collection development (e.g., budget shortages, lack of skilled personnel, lower agency prioritization, and reduced available staff time). This article explores a practical, low-cost solution to these challenges that prevent collection developers from regularly creating/managing adequately balanced collections. It discusses the role of 93 “community-embedded” librarians-in-training to develop contextually situated collections in a graduate course taught seven times in an information sciences program in a southern land grant university. Findings of collection management activity tasks completed during the course provide evidence of accrued tangible outcomes/benefits to motivate collection development librarians and their information agencies collaborate with librarians-in-training in future initiatives.     

On the same page: Improving the connection between public services units in academic libraries

Communication quality between public service units in academic libraries can make the difference between mediocre and exceptional service. If units do not communicate well, patrons may receive inaccurate information and experience short-term frustration, leading to long-term damage to the library's reputation. Poor communication creates adverse effects on employees through decreased productivity, negative work culture, and low morale. This article explores the importance of quality communication through a review of the literature and a case study at one academic library. The authors share practical communication improvement strategies for libraries of every size and fiscal ability.     

Bibliometric approximation of a scientific specialty by combining key sources,title words,authors and references

Bibliometric methods for the analysis of highly specialized subjects are increasingly investigated and debated. Information and assessments well-focused at the specialty level can help make important decisions in research and innovation policy. This paper presents a novel method to approximate the specialty to which a given publication record belongs. The method partially combines sets of key values for four publication data fields: source, title, authors and references. The approach is founded in concepts defining research disciplines and scholarly communication, and in empirically observed regularities in publication data. The resulting specialty approximation consists of publications associated to the investigated publication record via key values for at least three of the four data fields. This paper describes the method and illustrates it with an application to publication records of individual scientists. The illustration also successfully tests the focus of the specialty approximation in terms of its ability to connect and help identify peers. Potential tracks for further investigation include analyses involving other kinds of specialized publication records, studies for a broader range of specialties, and exploration of the potential for diverse applications in research and research policy context.
