BIBLIOTECARII MANAGERI AI DATELOR, BIBLIOTECILE API-URI
Just as literacy refers to “the ability to read for knowledge, write coherently and think critically about printed material” data-literacy is the ability to consume for knowledge, produce coherently and think critically about data. Data literacy includes statistical literacy but also understanding how to work with large data sets, how they were produced, how to connect various data sets and how to interpret them.
Metadata enriching and filtering for enhanced collection discoverability
The return on investment for academic libraries is chiefly tied to access, usage and impact. Without accurate, consistent and quality metadata on the one hand, and an easy-to-use and effective discovery service on the other, these valuable resources may remain invisible and inaccessible to users. In this talk, Getaneh aims to present four overarching metadata principles, namely: metadata enriching, linking, openness and filtering. And how these ideas help shape the metadata creation and discovery services at Solent University – focusing on the implementation of RDA and FRBR as well as the use of subject headings and authority controls.

From the principle of sufficiency and necessity to metadata enriching
In contrast to the principle of metadata simplicity and sufficiency, the principle of metadata enriching can be considered a departure from traditional cataloguing approaches where the focus was on metadata simplicity. Metadata created and managed following the principle of metadata enriching better responds to users’ needs. Whilst the principle of enriching results in a potential abundance of metadata, the principle of filtering is used to simplify its presentation by enabling a user-centred/focused/led design.

Visualization - how one picture beats a 1000 words - and how to leverage that
Visualization is defined in this presentation as a way of taking data and presenting it in a way that allows an end user to perform his or her responsibilities in a correct, efficient, timely and convenient manner. Visualization uses many techniques to pre-process raw data, turn it into information and present the information in a way that leverages all dimensions and senses that humans have at their disposal - ranging from shape, size, color to animation and sound. This presentation is not technical - but it intends to inspire the technically inclined. It serves as an inspiration for designers and developers to think differently about the way information systems can and should facilitate the end users. This presentation was delivered during the AMIS & Oracle Applications User Experience event on User Experience on March 18th 2014 in Nieuwegein, The Netherlands
