Rez. in: JASIST 58(2007) no.1, S.150-151 (L. Westbrook): "The purpose of this volume is to bring together various analyses by international scholars of the social and cultural impact of information technology on individuals and societies (preface, n.p.). It grew from the First International Conference on Human Perspectives in the Internet Society held in Cadiz, Spain, in 2004. The editors and contributors have addressed an impressive array of significant issues with rigorous research and insightful analysis although the resulting volume does suffer from the usual unevenness in depth and content that affects books based on conference proceedings. Although the $256 price is prohibitive for many individual scholars, the effort to obtain a library edition for perusal regarding particular areas of interest is likely to prove worthwhile. Unlike many international conferences that are able to attract scholars from only a handful of nations, this genuinely diverse conference included research conducted in Australia, Beijing, Canada, Croatia, the Czech Republic, England, Fiji, Germany, Greece, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Malaysia, Norway, Russia, Scotland, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan, and the United States. The expense of a conference format and governmental travel restrictions may have precluded greater inclusion of the work being done to develop information technology for use in nonindustrialized nations in support of economic, social justice, and political movements. Although the cultural variants among these nations preclude direct cross-cultural comparisons, many papers carefully provide sufficient background information to make basic conceptual transfers possible. A great strength of the work is the unusual combination of academic disciplines that contributes substantially to the depth of many individual papers, particularly when they are read within the larger context of the entire volume. Although complete professional affiliations are not universally available, the authors who did name their affiliation come from widely divergent disciplines including accounting, business administration, architecture, business computing, communication, computing, economics, educational technology, environmental management, experimental psychology, gender research in computer science, geography, human work sciences, humanistic informatics, industrial engineering, information management, informatics in transport and telecommunications, information science, information technology, management, mathematics, organizational behavior, pedagogy, psychology, telemedicine, and women's education. This is all to the good, but the lack of representation from departments of women's studies, gender studies, and library studies certainly limits the breadth and depth of the perspectives provided.

Rez. in JASIST 55(2004) no.1, S.278-279 (P.K. Nayar): "We live in an increasingly wired and digitized world. Work, leisure, shopping, research, and interpersonal communications are all mediated by the new technologies. The present volume begins with the assumption that the Internet is not a special system, it is routinely incorporated into the everyday. Wellman and Haythornthwaite note that increasing access and commitment (doing more types of things online), domestication (online access from home), and longer work hours (working from anywhere, including home) are trends in everyday Internet use. In their elaborate introduction to the volume, Wellman and Haythornthwaite explore the varied dimensions of these trends in terms of the digital divide, the demographic issues of Internet use and online behavior (that is, social interaction). This sets the tone for the subsequent essays, most of which are voyages of discovery, seeking patterns of use and behavior. The focus of individual essays is dual: empirical study/data and theoretical conclusions that range from the oracular to the commentary. Readers will find this approach useful because the conclusions drawn are easily verified against statistics (a major part of the volume is comprised of tables and databases). It is also consciously tilted at the developed countries where Internet use is extensive. However, the effort at incorporating data from ethnic communities within developed nations, Japan and India, renders the volume more comprehensive. Some gaps are inevitable in any volume that seeks to survey anything as vast as the role of the Internet in everyday life. There is almost no discussion of subcultural forms that have mushroomed within and because of cyberspace. Now technology, we know, breeds its own brand of discontent. Surely a discussion of hackers, who, as Douglas Thomas has so clearly demonstrated in his book Hacker Culture (2002), see themselves as resisting the new "culture of secrecy" of corporate and political mainstream culture, is relevant to the book's ideas? If the Internet stands for a whole new mode of community building, it also stands for increased surveillance (particularly in the wake of 9/11). Under these circumstances, the use of Computer-mediated communication to empower subversion or to control it assumes enormous politicoeconomic significance. And individual Internet users come into this an an everyday basis, as exemplified by the American housewives who insinuate themselves into terrorist web/chat spaces as sympathizers and Crack their identities for the FBI, CIA, and other assorted agencies to follow up on. One more area that could have done with some more survey and study is the rise of a new techno-elite. Techno-elitism, as symbolized images of the high-power "wired" executive, eventually becomes mainstream culture. Those who control the technology also increasingly control the information banks. The studies in the present volume explore age differentials and class distinctions in the demography of Internet users, but neglect to account for the specific levels of corporate/scientific/political hierarchy occupied by the techno-savvy. R.L. Rutsky's High Techne (1999) has demonstrated how any group-hackers, corporate heads, software engineers-with a high level of technological expertise modulate into icons of achievement. Tim Jordan in his Cyberpower (1999) and Chris Hables Gray in Cyborg Citizen (2001) also emphasize the link between technological expertise, the rise of a techno-elite, and "Cyberpower." However, it would be boorish, perhaps, to point out such lapses in an excellent volume. The Internet in Everyday Life will be useful to students of cultural, communication, and development studies, cyberculture and social studies of technology."

Abstract

Organizing and providing access to the resources an the Internet has been a problem area in spite of the availability of sophisticated search engines and other Software tools. There have been several attempts to organize the resources an the WWW. Some of them have tried to use traditional library classification schemes such as the Library of Congress Classification, the Dewey Decimal Classification and others. However there is a need to assign proper subject headings to them and present them in a logical or hierarchical sequence to cater to the need for browsing. This paper attempts to describe an experimental system designed to organize and provide access to web documents using a faceted pre-coordinate indexing system based an the Deep Structure Indexing System (DSIS) derived from POPSI (Postulate based Permuted Subject Indexing) of Bhattacharyya, and the facet analysis and chain indexing System of Ranganathan. A prototype software system has been designed to create a database of records specifying Web documents according to the Dublin Core and input a faceted subject heading according to DSIS. Synonymous terms are added to the standard terms in the heading using appropriate symbols. Once the data are entered along with a description and URL of the Web document, the record is stored in the system. More than one faceted subject heading can be assigned to a record depending an the content of the original document. The system stores the surrogates and keeps the faceted subject headings separately after establishing a link. Search is carried out an index entries derived from the faceted subject heading using chain indexing technique. If a single term is input, the system searches for its presence in the faceted subject headings and displays the subject headings in a sorted sequence reflecting an organizing sequence. If the number of retrieved headings is too large (running into more than a page) then the user has the option of entering another search term to be searched in combination. The system searches subject headings already retrieved and look for those containing the second term. The retrieved faceted subject headings can be displayed and browsed. When the relevant subject heading is selected the system displays the records with their URLs. Using the URL the original document an the web can be accessed. The prototype system developed under Windows NT environment using ASP and web server is under rigorous testing. The database and indexes management routines need further development.

Abstract

The past 100 years have seen the development of numerous systems for the structured representation of knowledge and information, including hierarchical classification systems and with sophisticated features for the representation of term relationships. Discusses reasons for the lack of widespread adoption of these systems, particularly in the USA. The suggested structure for indexing the Internet or other large electronic collections of documents is based on that of book indexes: specific headings with coined modifications

Abstract

As the amount of accessible information on the WWW increases, so will the cost of accessing it, even if search servcies remain free, due to the increasing amount of time users will have to spend to find needed items. Considers what the seemingly unorganized Web and the organized world of libraries can offer each other. The OCLC Scorpion Project is attempting to combine indexing and cataloguing, specifically focusing on building tools for automatic subject recognition using the technqiues of library science and information retrieval. If subject headings or concept domains can be automatically assigned to electronic items, improved filtering tools for searching can be produced

Abstract

WWW sites, consisting mainly of links to other Internet resources, have begun to proliferate and these sites are valuable to library users and researchers because they bring together in a single Web site links to a comprehensive array of information resources. Because libraries may elect to include bibliographic records for these sites in their online catalogues, cataloguers should be aware of some of the main aspects of cataloguing this new type of resource. Concludes that cataloguers should be aware of the main types and different characteristics of these Web sites, how to describe them in bibliographic records and how to assign appropriate subject headings for them

Abstract

While many catalogers are using the Web to find the information they need to perform authority work quickly and accurately, the full potential of the Web to assist catalogers in name authority work has yet to be realized. The ever-growing nature of the Web means that available information for creating personal name, corporate name, and other types of headings will increase. In this article, we examine ways in which simple and effective Web searching can save catalogers time and money in the process of authority work. In addition, questions involving evaluating authority information found on the Web are explored.

Abstract

Reports results of a questionnaire survey of cataloguers, conducted over the AUTOCAT Internet discussion group, to determine those areas of cataloguing for which the Internet is a valuable tool and those areas for which it is not as useful. Respondents indicated 4 areas in which cataloguers use the Internet: searching the OPACs of other libraries, communicating with colleagues, accessing online cataloguing documentation and publications, and authority work. Cataloguers who found access to other libraries' OPACs did so for the following reasons: assigning call numbers and subject headings; finding full cataloguing copy from other libraries; enriching their local catalogue with notes present in records in other libraries; finding copy for foreign language items that cannot be read by library staff; and resolving difficult problems when important parts of the item are missing ar are in disarray. Some cataloguers also related processes for which they have found the Internet to not be efficient

Abstract

The Internet challenges designers of reference resources to structure user interfaces so that they facilitate quick access to bibliographies. Designers can organize bibliographies in chronological order of publication, alphabetical listing by author or title and/or subject-headings; or can follow a subject classification scheme from the relevant field. Chronological order of publication and alphabetical listings of authors and titles are the simplest ways to organize bibliographic materials, but these methods usually fall to present the thematic relations among the various items. The subject classification is the most systematic presentation, but the most complicated to develop. This study explores the subject classification model, elaborates its rationale, demonstrates an exemplary faceted subject classification scheme grounded in solid scientific foundations, and clarifies the scientific foundations of the three-phase structuring methodology that was utilized. The exemplary classificatory model is a seven-facet subject classification scheme designed for classifying scholarly papers in the field of Logotherapy. The study, in particular the scientific structuring methodology, provides an example for structuring bibliographic resources in the social sciences, as well as in other academic fields

Abstract

Possibilities are being explored to use traditional bibliographic tools, like Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), Library of Congress Classification (LCC), Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), and Universal Decimal Classification (UDC), to improve the organization of information resources on the Internet. The most recent edition of DDC, with its enhanced features, has greater potential than other traditional approaches. A review of selected Web sites that use DDC to organize Web resources indicates, however, that the full potential of the DDC scheme for this purpose has not been realized. While the review found that the DDC classification structure was more effective when compared with other knowledge organization systems, we conclude that DDC needs to be further enhanced to make it more suitable for this application. As widely reported in the professional literature, OCLC has conducted research on the potential of DDC for organizing Web resources. Such research, however, is experimental and should be supplemented by empirical studies with user participation.

Abstract

Vernetzung und Netzwerke finden sich allerorten, haben vielerlei Qualität und Materialität, erfüllen diverse Zwecke und Funktionen und konstituieren unterschiedliche Infrastrukturen, nicht nur kommunikativer und sozialer Art. Mit der Entwicklung und Verbreitung der Informationstechnik, der globalen Transport- und Vermittlungssysteme und endlich der anhaltenden Digitalisierung werden der Begriff und die damit bezeichnete Konnektivität omnipräsent und auf digitale Netze fokussiert, die im Internet als dem Netz der Netze seinen wichtigsten und folgenreichsten Prototypen findet. Dessen Entwicklung wird kompakt dargestellt. Die bereits vorhandenen und verfügbaren Anwendungsfelder sowie die künftigen (Industrie 4.0, Internet der Dinge) lassen revolutionäre Umbrüche in allen Segmenten der Gesellschaft erahnen, die von der nationalstaatlichen Gesetzgebung und Politik kaum mehr gesteuert und kontrolliert werden, neben unbestreitbar vielen Vorzügen und Verbesserungen aber auch Risiken und Benachteiligungen zeitigen können.
