    Abstract
    OPACs in an increasing number of libraries are now available using the Joint Academic Network (JANET). Access has tended to be obstructed, for the casual user, by the lengthy JANET addressing codes and varying log-on procedures required by each library system. Discribed how a communications and menu package on an IBK/PC can be used so that by merely pressing cursor control, return and escape keays, any user can gain access to any one of over 40 OPACs linked to JANET

    Abstract
    The Joint Academic Network (JANET) was inaugurated in 1984, combining the functions of several previous academic and research networks. It is a private X.25 packet-switched network, managed by the Network Executive, and funded by the Computer Board for the Universities and Research Counsils. JANET now provides a data communicatons infrastructure, an internet, between the local area networks of over 100 universities, polytechnics, research institutions, and others, including the British Library. Discusses the information services available to the academic community, the role of libraries (particularly the British Library) in providing them, and the techniques available.

    Abstract
    Ob sie ihre Abende und Wochenenden lieber im Biergarten verbringen sollte, als ein Online-Tutorial zu stricken, fragte Janet MacKenzie von der Bibliothek der Institute am Englischen Garten der UB München am 5. Mai in INETBIB. Die Frage verdankte sich ihrer Beobachtung, dass Studierende als Hauptnutzer einer UB immer weniger bereit sind, die konventionellen Einführungsangebote wahrzunehmen. Sie erbitten statt dessen immer mehr die gerade benötigte Suchhilfe am Auskunftsschalter "just in time". Aber vielleicht ist gerade da ein Online-Tutorial die richtige Lösung: als spielerische, zeitlich und räumlich unabhängige Möglichkeit, die Bibliothek kennenzulernen und Informationskompetenz zu erwerben. Soweit ich sehe, ist das Tutorial der Münchner noch nicht am Netz. Aber andere, vor allem im angloamerikanischen Raum, bieten Bibliothekstutorials schon länger an. TILT, das Texas Information Literacy Tutorial, ist seit einigen Jahren das bekannteste Beispiel. Auch in Deutschland hat sich einiges getan. Seit 1999 gibt es den Schlauen Det der Bibliothek der Fachhochschule Hamburg. Im BIBLIOTHEKSDIENST 7 (2003) wurde das Tutorial der UB Lüneburg vorgestellt, das Tutorial der UB Kassel basiert auf der Lüneburger Software. Auch die UB Tübingen bietet seit kurzem eine Online-Einführung in die Katalogrecherche an

    Abstract
    The Joint Academic NETwork (JANET) links users to the facilities of over 2.000 registered computers on more than 200 sites within the UK. It connects all universities, polytechnics and institutes funded by the various research councils. A growing number of industrial and commercial organizations working in collaboration with members of the academic community are joining JANET. Gives technical specifications of the network. JANET.NEWS is a bulletin board for current information, contacts, registration, e-mail addresses of library staff and OPAC addresses. JANET is linked to OPACs to provide access to them outside the campus. It provides alternatives to mail and telex for the transmission of interlibrary loan requests, is used for e-mail communication, transfers bibliographic records between libraries, offers gateway facilities to online information services and accesses the Science Citation Index, Social Science Citaion Index and Arts and Humanities Citation Index. The national users group, JUGL, encourages use of the network through libraries, workshops for library staff, an annual meeting and a quarterly newsletter

    Abstract
    The delivery of documents on the Web has moved beyond the restrictions of the traditional Web markup language, HTML. HTML's static tags cannot deal with the variety of data formats now beginning to be exchanged between various entities, whether corporate or institutional. XML solves many of the problems by allowing arbitrary tags, which describe the content for a particular audience or group. At the Center for Electronic Texts in the Humanities the Latin texts of Lector Longinquus are being transformed to XML in readiness for the expected new standard. To allow existing browsers to render these texts, a Java program is used to transform the XML to HTML on the fly.

    Abstract
    The emergence of XML as a new standard for documents semi-structured on the Web opens opportunities to improve the process of interrogation of Web sites. HTML's major inconvenience is that it does not allow one to distinguish the logical and physical aspects of documents. We propose a model of data-web based on XML, and a concepts base composed of a meta-data base and a domain thesaurus. The meta-data base includes information on the content, the semantic structure, and the organisation of data of the site. The process of searching for information is based on the exploitation of the elements of the concepts base and allows for an interactive search for relevant documents (or extractions from documents)

    Rez. in: Gehirn & Geist 2002, H.3, S.96 (M. Springer: "Hinter dem trockenen Titel verbirgt sich ein faktenreiches, streckenweise richtig spannendes Buch über ein Thema, das uns (fast) alle angeht: Nicht weniger als sechzig bis neunzig Prozent aller Menschen erleiden in ihrem Leben ein psychisches Trauma - das heißt eine seelische Verletzung durch ein extrem bedrohliches Ereignis, bei dem man sich als hilfloses Opfer erlebt. Traumatisierende Erschütterungen können durch buchstäblich niederschmetternde Geschehnisse wie Unfälle, Naturkatastrophen oder Gewaltverbrechen-ausgelöst werden. Aber viel mehr Menschen erleiden eine so genannte sekundäre Traumatisierung: als hilflose Zuschauer eines Unfalls, als Angehörige eines Todkranken, als Rettungskräfte, Pfleger in Intensivstationen - oder sogar als Therapeuten von Trauma-Opfern. Bei acht bis neun Prozent aller Betroffenen hinterlassen solche Erlebnisse einen bleibenden seelischen Defekt, im Fachjargon eine "psychotraumatische Belastungsstörung" (PTBS). Das traumatisierende Ereignis löst beim Opfer eine so tiefe und dauerhafte Erschütterung seines -Selbst- und Weltverständnisses aus, dass ein normales Einbauen des Erlebten ins Gedächtnis nicht stattfinden kann. Das zutiefst verletzende Geschehen wird abgekapselt, verdrängt, durch Dissoziation des Gedächtnisses aus dem bewussten Erinnern herausgehalten. Solche Erkenntnisse sind im Prinzip nicht neu: Schon 1887 erklärte der Pariser Arzt Jean-Martin Charcot die hysterischen Symptome seiner Patientinnen durch traumatische Erlebnisse, und sein Schüler Pierre Janet interpretierte ihre verräterischen Gedächtnislücken als dissoziierte Erinnerungsfragmente an eine frühere, überwältigend schmerzliche Erfahrung.
    Doch erst vor kurzem hat sich die Psychotraumatologie als eigene Disziplin etabliert. Einschlägiger Forschungsbedarf entstand Ende der 1970er Jahre in den USA, als nach dem Vietnamkrieg zehntausende Veteranen zu versorgen waren, die nicht nur körperliche, sondern auch tiefe seelische Verletzungen davongetragen hatten. In Deutschland erschien erst 1998 das erste Lehrbuch der neuen Disziplin, dessen Koautor Gottfried Fischer heute das Deutsche Institut für Psychotraumatologie in Köln leitet. Eine wichtige Rolle spielen Trauma-Forscher als Gutachter vor Gericht. Wie ist die Glaubwürdigkeit eines Opfers von Kindesmissbrauch zu bewerten, das erst nach langen Jahren und nur mit therapeutischer Unterstützung seine Erinnerungen auszusprechen vermag? Die amerikanische Psychologin Elizabeth Loftus hat das Phänomen der "falschen Erinnerungen" untersucht, die durch suggestive Befragung erzeugt werden können. Das Buch geht auf solche Einwände ein, bewertet sie fair und warnt sowohl vor dem Kunstfehler, dem Trauma-Patienten Erlebnisse zu suggerieren, als auch vor generellem Misstrauen gegenüber dessen Aussagen. Anhand eines. Kriterienkatalogs werden Indizien angeführt, die für oder gegen die Plausibilität verschütteter Erinnerungen sprechen. Immer wieder lockern Fallbeispiele den Lehrbuchcharakter des Textes auf. All diese erschütternden Geschichten ha ben immerhin einen tröstlichen Aspekt: Wenn das Trauma-Opfer erst einmal so weit ist, seine schrecklichen Erinnerungen zur Sprache zu bringen, haben The-. rapeut und Patient einen guten Teil des Wegs zur Heilung hinter sich. Dieses Heben der Erinnerung lässt sich aber nicht immer erreichen - und schon gar nicht durch Insistieren erzwingen. Viele Traumatisierte, zum Beispiel Holocaust-Überlebende, leben jahrzehntelang mit unausgesprochenen und nicht bewussten Erinnerungen, und manche nehmen den sprachlosen Schrecken mit ins Grab. Denn für Trauma-Opfer gilt: Die Zeit heilt keine Wunden.")
