This document summarizes a presentation about teaching students about scholarly communication and the business aspects of librarianship. The presentation covers why it is important for students to understand the economics of information and scholarly publishing. It describes teaching scenarios used to discuss how scholarly information is a business, including the roles of various players and costs associated with journals. Assessment of student learning found that students were surprised by the high costs of journals and databases and developed a greater appreciation for libraries and the resources they provide.
Internet, libraries and librarianship
This document discusses the roles of libraries and librarians in the internet age. It begins by defining libraries and their traditional roles in providing information. It then discusses how the rise of the internet has impacted information seeking behavior and the need for libraries to adapt. While some argue the internet replaces libraries, others argue both are needed. Libraries still provide important services like free internet access and information literacy instruction. The document concludes by examining new roles for libraries, such as content providers, educators, and entrepreneurs, and the need for libraries to be open, nimble and user-centric to remain valuable in the digital world.

Stolley Book review
This document provides an overview and summary of key points from a book about writing and designing for the web. The book introduces important concepts like rhetoric, web languages like HTML and CSS, and challenges related to accessibility, usability and sustainability. It explains that the goal is not to teach everything about web design, but to provide foundational knowledge to get started. Sections of the book cover topics such as determining your writing purpose, addressing your target audience, and strategies for success. Overall, the document summarizes that the book presents an introduction to combining writing skills with technical web knowledge for effective information design online.
Future of the article C Mavergames March 2013
The document discusses the future of Cochrane Reviews and scientific articles moving away from static documents toward structured linked data and interfaces. It argues that the focus should shift from the documents themselves to the things they are about (e.g. populations, interventions, outcomes), which can be connected as a web of data. This would allow content to be more nimble, traveling freely across datasets while retaining context. Interfaces could provide better access than documents by enabling smart search and filtering of this linked data graph. The future is making content and delivery more important than the containers (documents/articles) themselves.
Relevance of clasification and indexing
The document discusses the relevance of classification and indexing for organizing internet resources. It argues that while the internet has grown without formal organization tools like classification schemes and vocabularies, bringing such library techniques to the web could help address the problem of information being difficult to find, access, and retrieve from the vast, unorganized data available online. Applying concepts from knowledge organization, like subject descriptors and relationships between resources, is an approach taken by the semantic web to help machines better understand and process information on the web.

Web resources
This document discusses various web resources for accessing information on the internet, including the World Wide Web (WWW), search engines, and wikis. It notes that the WWW allows for storage and retrieval of various digital files through HTTP. Popular search engines like Google and Yahoo allow users to search for information on websites through keyword searches. Wikis are websites that allow easy creation and editing of interlinked web pages by users. Overall, the document outlines different types of web resources and how they can provide vast amounts of information on various topics.
Informational web pages
An informational database or webpage contains factual information intended to educate readers. It is recognizable by ending in .edu or .gov, being created by experts, and maintaining accuracy, objectivity, currency, and depth of coverage. Libraries play an important role by creating informative websites and webpages for their audiences, providing relevant information through links to save time and money over other resources.

Zarneger "Supporting AI: Best Practices for Content Delivery Platforms"National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
This document discusses best practices for content delivery platforms to support artificial intelligence projects. It recommends that platforms (1) accept that they do not have all the data needed and should integrate third-party sources, (2) provide consistent tagging of content, (3) offer a lightweight programmatic interface, (4) embrace allowing large amounts of content to be taken offline for analysis, and (5) enable complex filtering and selection of data. The document also suggests platforms could consider offering preprocessed datasets or AI tools as new products.Lafferty "Supporting Research Data Management: Perceptions from a Library Pra...
Lafferty "Supporting Research Data Management: Perceptions from a Library Pra...National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
The document summarizes the role and challenges of research data management (RDM) information professionals from the perspective of a library practitioner. It discusses how RDM professionals educate researchers on topics like data management planning and repositories, consult on issues like workflows and publishing, and curate data to ensure findability, understandability and reuse. However, navigating relationships with different university offices, building shared understanding of technical concepts, and managing expectations with limited resources present challenges. Key principles for RDM professionals include keeping researchers central, considering future data re-users, and contributing to communities of practice. Ongoing gaps include supporting restricted and large data as well as developing actionable policies and training new professionals.Kohacon2016
The document discusses linked data and its use in libraries. It describes how linked data can make implicit information explicit by using vocabularies and ontologies. Linked data takes advantage of web standards to better describe resources and make them easier to find. It addresses the need for a "library shaped hole" on the internet and the benefits of moving library data out of silos and enabling reuse through a MARC replacement like BIBFRAME. Challenges in transforming data and transitioning to new terminology are also discussed.
Informational web pages
An informational database or webpage contains factual information intended to educate readers. It is created by authorities on the topic who strive for accuracy, objectivity, and currency. Libraries and information centers play an important role by creating informational web pages and databases to disseminate relevant information to their audiences in a way that saves time and money compared to print or paid online resources. The goal is to provide easy access to factual information on various topics.

Essay Of Internet.pdf
Writing an essay about the internet presents several challenges. It involves navigating the vast amount of information available online while maintaining depth and coherence. Additionally, the topic of the internet is constantly evolving, requiring the writer to stay up-to-date on the latest technological developments and trends. The essay must also strike a balance between the technical aspects of the internet and its societal impacts, while integrating these diverse topics into a cohesive narrative. Selecting credible sources is also difficult due to the sheer volume of information available. Crafting an original thesis that offers a unique perspective further complicates the task of writing about the internet.
Usable Language | How Content Shapes The User Experience
The document provides an overview of how content shapes the user experience in three key areas: information architecture, design, and analytics. It discusses how information architecture is about organizing information to suit users' needs, and how labels and navigation are crucial. It also explains that wireframes and design decisions should be informed by the planned content. Finally, it describes how analytics data about user behavior and key metrics can provide insights to improve content, such as by optimizing pages that see high dropout rates or searches. The document emphasizes that content is essential to all aspects of the user experience.
