Analysis of users' searches of CD-ROM databases in the national and university library in Zagreb

INFORMATION PROCESSING & MANAGEMENT 1997年第6期33卷 785-802页

作者： Jokic, M National and University Library Zagreb Avenija Hrvatske bratske zajednice b.b. 10000 Zagreb Croatia

This study investigates the behavior of two groups with different degree of independence in the search of CD-ROM databases (PsyLit and BIOSIS, SPIRS software). In the group A were users who needed only some technical assistance in communication with a computer/database, while the members of the group B searched CD-ROM databases completely independently. data were collected by means of questionnaires and transaction logs of search strategies. Statistical data support the hypothesis that the two groups differ both in their experience and frequency in using computer. However, by the analysis of variables used in search strategies/tactics i.e. a) variables relating to the knowledge of search systems and syntax, b) variables defining the search strategies (number of words, concepts, steps, and cycles), c) variables regarding the qualitative indicators (clarity, specificity and complexity of determined strategies in relation to search topic title, and errors) and search results variables (number of retrieved references, number of relevant references, search precision, and results with zero hits) we did not obtain statistically significant difference in the user behavior. Both groups used facilities for a more comprehensive and successful search they were offered on-screen to a low degree. Results obtained by this research show that end-user education is necessary for CD-ROM database searching, although CD-ROM is primarily designed for end-users. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Decision support for serials deselection and acquisition: A case study

引用

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE 1997年第3期48卷 270-273页

作者： Robb, DJ McCormick, A SIGNIFICANT BITS CORP CALGARYAB T2Z 2N4CANADA

Libraries continue to face financial pressures as the number and costs of serials escalate while funding is reduced. We discuss the case of a small library responding to such constraints by eliminating physical-subscription journals of lower value and at the same time enhancing its service to include CD-ROM technology. The study ranked nearly 700 journals according to cost/benefit, where journal benefit (reflecting usage, relevance, and availability) is defined by a weighted sum of subjective and objective factors readily collected from library users and abstracting indices.

The virtual reference librarian: Using desktop videoconferencing for distance reference

引用

ELECTRONIC LIBRARY 1996年第1期14卷 21-26页

作者： Pagell, RA EMORY UNIV LIB CTR BUSINESS INFORMATATLANTAGA 30322 USA

Desktop videoconferencing, brining together computing, multimedia and telecommunications, is one of many new technologies competing for our attention. Videoconferencing is being used in corporations as a substitute for business travel and in academic institutions as the basis for distance learning. The Center for Business Information and the Goizueta Business School at Emory University beta tested desktop videoconferencing as a means to deliver a distance reference service, including consultation, documentation, and training and sharing of CDROM databases. This paper provides a brief overview of the technology, describes the Emory beta tests, and discusses evaluative factors necessary for the success of desk videoconferencing in a library or information centre.

Does machine-readable documentation on online hosts and CD-ROMs have a role or future?

引用

JOURNAL OF INFORMATION SCIENCE 1996年第4期22卷 247-258页

作者： Harris, S Oppenheim, C DE MONTFORT UNIV INT INST ELECT LIB RESMILTON KEYNES MK7 6HPBUCKSENGLAND

As electronic information resources become increasingly complex, documentation in machine-readable form has been developed as a possible solution to the problem of ever-increasing numbers and volume of printed manuals and collections of data sheets. The authors report the results of a UK-based study among database users, CD-ROM producers and hosts to assess trends and views on this issue. The opinions of a small number of online and CD-ROM vendor companies, and a sample of members of the UK Online User Group, were assessed by means of postal questionnaires. Print manuals are still the primary source of documentation for those using electronic databases. The reasons for the continuing reluctance of people to make use of machine-readable documentation are cost, convenience and ease of use. Some suggestions are made as to how documentation in machine-readable form might be improved to make it more user-friendly and popular.

Information skills, searching behaviour and cognitive styles for student-centred learning: A computer-assisted learning approach

引用

JOURNAL OF INFORMATION SCIENCE 1996年第2期22卷 79-92页

作者： Wood, F Ford, N Miller, D Sobczyk, G Duffin, R UNIV SHEFFIELD DEPT INFORMAT STUDIESREGENT COURT211 PORTOBELLOSHEFFIELD S1 4DPS YORKSHIREENGLAND

Undergraduates were tested to establish how they searched databases, the effectiveness of their searches and their satisfaction with them, The students' cognitive and learning styles were determined by the Lancaster Approaches to Studying Inventory and Riding's Cognitive Styles Analysis tests,There were significant differences in the searching behaviour and the effectiveness of the searches carried out by students with different learning and cognitive styles. Computer-assisted learning [GAL) packages were developed for three departments, The effectiveness of the packages was evaluated. Significant differences were found in the ways students with different learning styles used the packages, Based on the experience gained, guidelines for the teaching of information skills and the production and use of packages were prepared. About two-thirds of the searches had serious weaknesses, indicating a need for effective training, It appears that choice of searching strategies, search effectiveness and use of CAL packages are all affected by the cognitive and learning styles of the searcher, Therefore, students should be made aware of their own styles and, if appropriate, how to adopt more effective strategies, Information skills training and, in particular, CAL packages for this purpose should be designed to accommodate different cognitive and learning styles.

Information access and retrieval with hypermedia information systems

引用

BRITISH JOURNAL OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY 1996年第1期27卷 33-44页

作者： Oliver, R Oliver, H CURTIN UNIV TECHNOL SCI MATH EDUC CTRBENTLEYWA 6102AUSTRALIA

Students' success with interactive information systems (IIS) such as those found in many CD-ROM applications depends to large degree on their capacity accurately to choose and apply search strategies in response to information needs, ITS systems provide many ways to retrieve information, with some methods being more efficient and effective than others. The purpose of this study was to investigate the search strategies employed by novice users of an IIS system and to analyse the problems and issues that were impediments to successful use. A class of 12 year old students was instructed in the use of an electronic encyclopaedia, The students used the encyclopaedia as an information source for individual projects and on completion their information skills tested and analysed. The study Found that students tended to employ inefficient search strategies and experienced difficulty in creating search requests for information related problems.

Automation is the answer, but what is the question? Progress and prospects for Central and Eastern European libraries

引用

JOURNAL OF DOCUMENTATION 1996年第3期52卷 252-295页

作者： Borgman, CL (cborgman@ucla.edu Department of Library and Information Science Graduate School of Education & Information Studies 2320A Moore Hall University of California Los Angeles California 90095–1521 USA)

In the former Yugoslavia and Soviet Bloc countries of Central and Eastern Europe most information technology was unavailable, unaffordable or discouraged for forty years. These countries realise that they must improve their internal infrastructures if they are to become integral parts of the global information infrastructure. We report the results of a mail survey conducted in late 1994 and early 1995 of seventy research libraries in Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia, building on the findings from interviews conducted with 300 persons in the region in 1993-1994. Results show that these libraries are acquiring automated processing systems, CD-ROM databases, and connections to computer networks at a rapid rate and that automation activity has increased substantially since 1989;we report specific data on system implementation and network services by country and by type of library. 'Access' is their top reason to automate, which appears to mean placing the catalogue online with better search capabilities and putting items on the shelves faster - but does not necessarily mean improvements in self-service for library users, Co-operation and standards are highly-ranked automation goals, yet we find anomalous results on each. Management goals focus more on speed and processing than on management information, staffing or advancing the mission of the parent organisation. Management of human resources ranks low, despite the need for wider staff involvement in the system selection process, education of technically-trained library professionals, continuing training of staff and training of library users. We conclude with implications of these results for the region.
