Some Problems Of Collecting And Utilizing Foreign Journals In Polish Libraries, Henryk Szarski

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Polish academic libraries suffer from a significant lack of foreign scientific journals. Funds assigned by the Ministry are insufficient. The central system of periodicals subscription also reveals many shortcomings. These problems should be solved through co-operation with the Central Academic Libraries. The Library of the Technical University of Wroclaw is one of the three Central Technical Libraries which undertake various actions in order to increase the level of serviees in the area of foreign scientific journais. Among others, a computer system, SPEC, has been elaborated to assist the subscription of foreign journals for the libraries of Poland.

The Computerized Network Of Israeli University Libraries, Nurit Roitberg

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

The last five years have been a period of electronic revolution in Israeli university libraries. During these years, large scale computerization has been carried out. Introduction of the automated systems to the libraries has improved both local library services and the level of resource sharing among the libraries.

A national network has been created under the auspices of the governmental office which finances the universities. The aim of this network is to improve co-operation among the libraries. The network is governed by a committee in which library directors are members. This committee is responsible for preparation and supervision of software …

The Basic Principles For The Development Of A Computerized Information System In The Central Technical Library (Strategic Appraisal), Nada Cucnik-Majcen

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Today, when we talk about information technology issues in library and information services, it is difficult to outline with great precision optimal developmental objectives for these services. The problem with which information providers using sophisticated information technology are confronted is how to plan for the efficient management of information and library services in the fast-growing and constantly changing field of electronic information, in order to meet the increasing demand from the present business and industrial sector for library services.

Document Delivery - The Dawn Of A New Era, Andrew Braid

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Only a few years ago the phrase 'document delivery' was never used in connection with libraries. Instead the term 'inter-library loan' (ILL) was used. The reason for the change is very simple and is due entirely to photocopying machines. Before these existed it was a very cumbersome, slow and expensive operation to màke copies of individual documents from bound books and journals. Photocopying machines allowed the quick and cheap duplication of documents: these copies could be supplied far more cheaply and efficiently than the loan of an item. A second cause was the development of online bibliographic databases which give …

A Microcomputer Based Current Awareness Service, Marshall Clinton

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

In November 1989, the University of Toronto Library introduced ScanDoc which links a PC-based current awareness and a document delivery service. Current Contents on Diskette is used to scan the current literature; locally developed programs are used to print current awareness notification slips; and the Library's document delivery service provides requested items. The current awareness service is offered to the University's facu1ty and research staff without charge while the document delivery service is provided on a cost-recovery basis. This paper describes the institutional setting, the way in which the service is operated, and the impact that the service has had …

International Cooperation Among Technological University Libraries, Dennis Shaw

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

International co-operation is one of the main purposes for which IATUL was founded in 1955. Progress towards our objective during the last 34 years is briefly reviewed. Difficulties have been encountered in developing efficient communications with countries in Asia, South America, and East Europe. Possible unnecessary duplication of effort has been avoided by special agreement with IFLA. The way ahead is for IATUL to study detailed problems in library technology and management and to refer political problems to IFLA. Our association with ICSU (the International Council of Scientific Unions) has proved of substantial benefit in the international arena, and reference …

Windowing The Past: A Seventeenth Century Technological Archive And Its Electronic Exploitation, Alasdair Paterson

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

The management of manuscript collections - unique, irreplaceable, fragile - has historically struggled to reconcile preservation with access. Academic librarians know only too well the uneasy negotiation between the conflicting imperatives of security and availability, conservation and use, which comes to define a level of public service in this area.

It is therefore not surprising that here, as elsewhere, the potential of new electronic media is increasingly a matter for investigation. Manuscripts transcribed, keyboarded or scanned into microcomputer systems become "virtual" manuscripts, no longer unique or fragile, potentially unlimited as to time, place, frequency and volume of use, retrievable through …
