The Write Way: Past "Aall Call For Papers" Winners Advise The Hesitant Writer, Adeen Postar
The Write Way: Past "Aall Call For Papers" Winners Advise The Hesitant Writer, Adeen Postar
All Faculty Scholarship
Each year, the American Association of Law Libraries sponsors a writing competition, funded by LEXIS Publishing. Officially known as the “Call for Papers,” the competition sparks scholarship, fosters creativity, and recognizes some of the finest writing produced by the members of our profession. Winning papers are presented at the Annual Meeting and often are published in Law Library Journal. Over time, the scholarship has added to and shaped the Association’s collective wisdom.
To get a handle on how to write a winning paper, this year’s judges queried four past winners: Deanna Barmakian, Jonathan Franklin, Michael A. Slinger, and Beatrice Tice. …
Furthering The Knowledge Commons In Our Field, Roger A. Lohmann
Furthering The Knowledge Commons In Our Field, Roger A. Lohmann
Faculty & Staff Scholarship
This paper suggests a variety of ways to advance the knowledge commons of third sector studies through the strategic use of electronic technology. Ways I have discussed include identifying and promulgating new associative forms of scholarly publishing, exploring the use of multi-media in data collection and presentation, defining and implementing strategic uses of XML, exploring and adopting new and emerging forms of trans-organizational groupware more suitable for commons, and encouraging and promulgating open standards.
The Use And Value Of Scholarly Journals, Carol Tenopir, Donald W. King
The Use And Value Of Scholarly Journals, Carol Tenopir, Donald W. King
School of Information Sciences -- Faculty Publications and Other Works
This paper summarized results of 13,591 readership survey responses of scientists and reviews of hundreds of other readership studies reported in a recent book: Towards Electronic Journals: Realities for Scientists, Librarians, and Publishers (Tenopir & King, 2000). In particular, survey results reveal amounts and trends of reading and information-seeking patterns, such as how readers identify articles that are read and where they obtain them. The survey results also demonstrate the usefulness and value of scientific scholarly journals. Past results suggest that electronic journals and digital full-text databases will play a major role in the future of scientific scholarly journals …
The Cost And Price Dilemma Of Scholarly Journals, Donald W. King, Carol Tenopir
The Cost And Price Dilemma Of Scholarly Journals, Donald W. King, Carol Tenopir
School of Information Sciences -- Faculty Publications and Other Works
This paper examines the overall cost of the scientific scholarly journal system and find that the relative system costs have not increased since the late 1970s. Why then have journal prices skyrocketed over this same period? We first describe typical scholarly publishing costs, because to understand journal prices one must understand the factors that affect these costs. We then describe some factors that have likely contributed to spiraling price increases and changes in journal subscription demand. Finally we discuss some alternative pricing policies that might help in the future. This paper summarizes results reported in a recent book: Towards Electronic …

Ovid [http://www.ovid.com] offers another example of internal linking with links between its bibliographic databases and the full text of articles available via Journals)Ovid, Ovid's aggregated fully SGML database of hundreds of scientific, technical, and medical journals. Again, depending on license agreements with Ovid, the searcher seamlessly moves from a link on a bibliographic record to the full text, never leaving the Ovid service.

Trekking Through Exhibit Halls, Carol Tenopir
Trekking Through Exhibit Halls, Carol Tenopir
School of Information Sciences -- Faculty Publications and Other Works
IT SEEMS AS IF THE exhibit halls at the Special Libraries Association (SLA) and the American Library Association (ALA) conferences get bigger every year, and it takes longer for me to get from one end of the hall to the other. Certainly the glitz of new systems, fancy interfaces, and new technologies is more impressive every year, and new Internet companies keep showing up.
Moving Toward Electronic Journals, Carol Tenopir
Moving Toward Electronic Journals, Carol Tenopir
School of Information Sciences -- Faculty Publications and Other Works
PRINT STILL PREDOMINATES in journal publishing, but that role may soon fade. Too slowly or too quickly, steadily or in fits and starts (depending on your perspective and patience level), scholarly journals are moving toward reliance on digital forms. This is happening in part because librarians, scholars, and even some publishers are unhappy about the current state of print journals.

This State Has "Boundries" (Sic), But No Focus: A Review, Richard Defoe
This State Has "Boundries" (Sic), But No Focus: A Review, Richard Defoe
E-JASL 1999-2009 (Volumes 1-10)
Review of Louisiana Biographical Dictionary: People of all Times and Places Who Have Been Important to the History and Life of the State. Somerset Publishers, St. Clair Shores, MI, 1999. $87.50.
Review:
Somerset Publishers produce biographical dictionaries of some of these United States. The Louisiana volume does not instill confidence in their efforts. Sloppy printing, sloppy proof-reading and sloppy and turgid writing are just the beginning of the problems with this book – the title of this review features one of their glaring spelling errors from the foreword.
But the major problem with this book seems to be focus, …
