Open Government, Closed Stacks: Onsite Storage Of Depository Materials, Aimée C. Quinn, Michaelyn Haslam

Library Scholarship

Storage of growing collections is an ongoing problem for libraries. Past attempts at using the industrial solution of automated storage and retrieval systems (AYRS) ended in failure. However. improvements in these mechanisms. especially computer control and the ability to interface with online library catalogs. make them a viable option for libraries. Questions remain about the appropriateness of treating intellectual material like industrial parts. In addition. access is still an issue especially in regard to government depository documents. A literature review shows that while there is a tremendous amount of research available on the design of AYRS. little is written about …

Libraries Turn New Leaf With Gis, Pat Newcombe Jan 1998

Libraries Turn New Leaf With Gis, Pat Newcombe

Faculty Scholarship

The Author discusses why libraries are appropriate facilities for the management and distribution of GIS maps and data. They are neutral, unbiased institutions, and are an established nationwide infrastructure. People who need access to information automatically think of libraries. It is libraries that users depend on for their data needs, and for resources that can interpret data. In addition, librarians are proficient in collection development, cataloging, access and preservation issues. All this makes for a strong case to provide GIS services in libraries.
