Internet In The Library - The Sky Isn't Blue, Błażej Feret, Barbara Szczepańska Jun 2004

Internet In The Library - The Sky Isn't Blue, Błażej Feret, Barbara Szczepańska

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

In the past few years, libraries, including academic libraries, became not only a place in which users could find information supporting teaching and research, but also hubs for patron access to the Internet and its vast resources. However, the Internet is not a “good boy”, and the information easily found with search engines or peer-to-peer programs may be used for bad goals. Should academic libraries promote unrestricted access to the Internet for the sake of people’s right to open access to information, or should they rather restrict and filter the incoming information to that actually related to the subjects of …

Convergence Between Interlibrary Loan And Acquisitions: A Science And Engineering Library Experience, Louis Houle Jun 2004

Convergence Between Interlibrary Loan And Acquisitions: A Science And Engineering Library Experience, Louis Houle

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Libraries are looking at new types of services to improve the dissemination of information to their users. One such new service, the integration of Interlibrary Loan with acquisitions and collection development, looks like a promising approach to meet the users’ information needs. The requests that meet selection criteria are not sent through the regular ILL borrowing channels but are instead turned into rush acquisitions. A special fund was set aside to purchase books requested by users (students, faculty and staff) through ILL processes. The ILL Librarian does both the selection of the ILL requests and the ordering of the books. …


Walking The Talk: Is Your Library A Marketing Oriented Organisation?, Barbara Ewers Jun 2004

Walking The Talk: Is Your Library A Marketing Oriented Organisation?, Barbara Ewers

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Libraries are increasingly vocal about the need to adopt strategic marketing management which is the process of creating and facilitating the exchange of products of value with others. However, the largest proportion of library and information science literature on marketing deals promotion and public relations which is only a small part of the marketing mix. There seems to have been a fragmented application of marketing principles in the management and operation of libraries because they have lacked strategies to translate the marketing management into their functional management. The concept of market orientation provides a framework for applying marketing principles into …

'Digital Is Not Different' - Copyright In Digital Environment, Barbara Szczepańska Jun 2004

'Digital Is Not Different' - Copyright In Digital Environment, Barbara Szczepańska

Proceedings of the IATUL Conferences

Development in technology has brought to the libraries new kind of resources. Digital works such as books, periodicals and other materials are now in libraries collections. In spite of the fact that basic principles of copyright remain the same for ”traditional” and digital works. Copyright in digital environment is much more difficult to control because of the ease of creation, modification and distribution of digital copies over networks. Libraries help copyright holders to protect digital works against copyright infringements. On the other hand they represent also users of protected materials, and have a crucial role to play in ensuring the …
