"The Homosexual" As Problem Patron, Polly Thistlethwaite
"The Homosexual" As Problem Patron, Polly Thistlethwaite
Publications and Research
Libraries host a range of human activity, some of which is overtly sexual. What's a librarian to do about public displays of affection? cruising? public sex? First, we read up on the issue. Unfortunately, problem patron library literature is spotted with vivid illustrations of irrational bias against gay men, male-to-female transgender women, and men-cruising-men. It also discounts the private nature of most consensual sex in public places. This article discusses sex and gender biases in library literature, arguing that gender equitable, privacy-respecting practices will better serve librarians administering public space.
Long-Term Retention Of Electronic Theses And Dissertations, Thomas H. Teper, Beth Kraemer
Long-Term Retention Of Electronic Theses And Dissertations, Thomas H. Teper, Beth Kraemer
Library Faculty and Staff Publications
This paper examines the increasing trend of universities to pursue electronic thesis and dissertation (ETD) programs. Although the goal of most programs is similar, procedural variations impact a program’s long-term success. As primary research generators, responsibility for providing long-term access to unique materials must be borne by universities. However, this responsibility is in conflict with many ETD program goals, such as increased access and ease of production.

There are thousands of statistical reports proving that by next September we will be so computerized and digitized that we will not have to go to school or work anymore. Math, spelling, geography, shopping, banking-it's all in the computer and on the web. All that will be left to us is to eat pizza and watch DVDs. Well, maybe there aren' t thousands of reports, but there are a lot, like, maybe three. OK, so I didn't actually see any reports myself, but the guys who hang at Harvey's Hardware know these things.
Logos, Biblios & Bibliotheke: Christian Influences In Library Development, John Mark Tucker
Logos, Biblios & Bibliotheke: Christian Influences In Library Development, John Mark Tucker
The Christian Librarian
The influence of the Christian faith in the growth and development of libraries begins with the fundamental character of Yahweh, God of the Bible. By outlining the characteristics of Yahweh, we begin to understand the conceptual framework on which libraries have come to exist as intellectual, physical, spiritual, and social institutions. Given the limitations of space and format, I am confining my remarks to thematic possibilities, ideas that may merit further exploration. Essential to Yahweh's character is that he acts in a powerful manner by speaking things into existence. He acts in a loving manner by creating individual human beings …
Narnia In The News, C.S. Lewis & Harpercollins, Roger Phillips
Narnia In The News, C.S. Lewis & Harpercollins, Roger Phillips
The Christian Librarian
C.S. Lewis' beloved Narnia has withstood the attack of the White Witch (aka Queen Jadis) from within and the Calormenes from without, but can it stand against modern publishing giant HarperCollins? This question in various forms has been voiced in the New York Times, Atlantic Monthly and Christianity Today. So let's just get the facts out into the light of day and decide for ourselves. But those facts are shrouded in a fog that would rival any to be found in Narnia.

Have you ever felt cramped? Out of space? Short of room? Working on this issue of The Christian Librarian is a continuation of a theme in my life lately. This is issue is jammed packed with articles and features and ACL Conference information that must go out to readers. There wasn't even room for "pull-quotes" -- those attention grabbing statements that highlight each article in hopes of attracting you to read further, and add an attractive graphic element to each page. We've even added extra pages so there would be enough room to fit it all in.
Expanding Our Boundaries With Information Literacy, Patricia Senn Breivik
Expanding Our Boundaries With Information Literacy, Patricia Senn Breivik
The Christian Librarian
Years ago I had a calling to a special ministry, but I didn't think of it that way. At the time it seemed more a desire, whereas callings had to do with going into overseas missionary work or into a full time Christian ministry.
My calling came a few years after the birth of my son when I was working with a capital campaign for the United Presbyterian Church. The $50 million dollar campaign was coming to an end, and that meant my job would soon be over. Although I was offered a higher-level position with the Foundation - one …

On Recommending, Jonathan Furner
On Recommending, Jonathan Furner
Jonathan Furner
The core of any document retrieval system is a mechanism that ranks the documents in a large collection in order of the likelihood with which they match the preferences of any person who interacts with the system. Given a broader interpretation of “recommending” than is commonly accepted, such a preference ordering may be viewed as a recommendation, made by the system to the information-seeker, that is itself typically derived through synthesis of multiple preference orderings expressed as recommendations by indexers, information-seekers, and document authors. The ERIn (Evaluation--Recommendation--Information) model, a decision-theoretic framework for understanding information-related activity, highlights the centrality of recommending …

Changes In The 17th Edition Of Sears List Of Subject Headings, Dorothy Bowen

Users coming to our library catalogs are more often looking for materials dealing with particular subjects rather than seeking specific titles or authors. Therefore, when we prepareour catalogs we must take special care to use terminology which will best retrieve this material. We must pay special attention to the "aboutness" of each item in order to select themost precise term.

Shera's Social Epistemology Recast As Psychological Bibliology, Jonathan Furner
Shera's Social Epistemology Recast As Psychological Bibliology, Jonathan Furner
Jonathan Furner
Shera, the library scientist, is often credited with introducing the term and concept of social epistemology; but his idea is most profitably viewed not as a contribution to epistemology or even to the sociology of knowledge, but rather as the forerunner of a document-focused strain of socio-cognitive psychology influential in the information sciences from the 1970s onwards. In turn, the work of Shera and his colleague Egan is itself reminiscent of the psychological bibliology defined by the documentalists Otlet and Rubakin in the early 20th century.
Discovering Information In Context, Paul Solomon
Scholarly Communication And Bibliometrics, Christine L. Borgman, Jonathan Furner
Scholarly Communication And Bibliometrics, Christine L. Borgman, Jonathan Furner
Jonathan Furner
Why devote an ARIST chapter to scholarly communication and bibliometrics, and why now? Bibliometrics already is a frequently covered ARIST topic, with chapters such as that by White and McCain (1989) on bibliometrics generally, White and McCain (1997) on visualization of literatures, Wilson and Hood (2001) on informetric laws, and Tabah (2001) on literature dynamics. Similarly, scholarly communication has been addressed in other ARIST chapters such as Bishop and Star (1996) on social informatics and digital libraries, Schamber (1994) on relevance and information behavior, and many earlier chapters on information needs and uses. More than a decade ago, the first …
