Availability And Accessibility Of Icts In The Rural Communities Of Delta State, Nigeria, Monday Obaidjevwe Ogbomo, Esoswo Francisca Ogbomo
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
A study of 128 people in the rural areas of Delta State, Nigeria, showed that only a relatively small number have access to computers, telephones, and radio, while virtually none have Internet access. Since Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are vital for development, the authors recommend aggressive government action to remedy this situation through the creation of infrastructure and educational efforts.

Usability Of Image Generation Platforms To Produce Oblique World Views, Michael T. Curtis, David Schuster, Florian Jentsch, R. Swanson, Michelle Harper-Sciarini

The interpretation of oblique aerial views in UAV operations is an important task, yet one that provides unique challenges. The human visual system is mal-adapted to visual perception from the air, especially when oblique views are involved. Hence, UAV operators have to be given training in the interpretation of oblique aerial visual stimuli. A novel way to train operators on how to accurately inspect and perceive oblique aerial images is to administer multiple trials of discrimination tasks for paired oblique images. In discrimination training, trainees view pairs of oblique aerial views and determine whether the images are taken from comparable …

Organization As A Management Variable: A Survey Of Nigerian University Libraries In The South South Zone, Ima M.P. Usoro
Organization As A Management Variable: A Survey Of Nigerian University Libraries In The South South Zone, Ima M.P. Usoro
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
This research examined the influence of the management variable of organizing on availability of information sources in the four Federal University Libraries in the south-south zone of Nigeria. The sample consisted of all academic librarians in the university libraries under study. One null hypothesis was formulated and tested. The instrument used to collect data for this study was a validated questionnaire. The data collected were analyzed using percentages, chi-square, and contingency correlation co-efficient. The result revealed that the management variable of organizing influenced availability of information sources in the university libraries since the calculated chi-square was greater than the critical …
The Effect Of Personal Characteristics On The Use Of Information Sources By Social Science Researchers At The University Of Nigeria, Nsukka, C.I. Ugwu
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
A study of the effect of some personal characteristics on the use of information sources by social science researchers was conducted at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka. Forty lecturers were surveyed using a questionnaire. Three hypotheses were evaluated through the analysis of variance and F-statistic. Multiple comparison of item means as well as group means was conducted using Scheffé's test. The results show that position and education are good predictors of information use while professional experience has little power in explaining variations in information source use. The findings of the study support the notion that information source use is a …

The Use Of Information Sources And Services And Its Effect On The Research Output Of Social Scientists In Nigerian Universities, S.O. Popoola
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
This article investigates the effects of the use of information sources and services on the research output of social scientists in the Nigerian federal government-owned universities. Simple cluster sampling with equal allocation method was used for sample selection. A self-developed questionnaire with a reliability coefficient (α = 0.78) was used for data gathering on 315 social scientists, of which 281 responded. The study found no significant difference between male and female use of information sources in social science research. The mean number of journals read on a regular basis by the respondents is seven. They occasionally use electronic information services …

Growth And Development Of Oriental Libraries In India, Sumeer Gul, Samina Khan
Growth And Development Of Oriental Libraries In India, Sumeer Gul, Samina Khan
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
India is a vast repository of different cultures, both because it was invaded by a number of foreign countries and peoples, and because of its contacts with people from the East. The languages from those Eastern countries are part of Indian literature. The literature in those Eastern languages created India 's Oriental libraries. This article traces the history of those libraries, which contain the literature pertaining to Oriental studies and languages. "Oriental" in this context refers to the ancient Near East, including India, Persia (Iran), and ancient Arabia, among other places, and the languages and literatures of those places and …

Should The American Canon Be Discussed In A Public Library? The Selection Of Classic American Authors In One Book Reading Projects, David C. Kupfer
Should The American Canon Be Discussed In A Public Library? The Selection Of Classic American Authors In One Book Reading Projects, David C. Kupfer
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
This report considers four issues; the validity of an American canon; whether public libraries have a mandate to support it; whether the canon is supported in national One Book clubs; and the implications of support. A measurable appreciation of our literary heritage is found by comparing bestsellers with classics in One Book projects for adult discussion. In this program, supervised by the Library of Congress Center for the Book, libraries have selected venerated American authors three times as frequently as those with the greatest current sales. In the 21st century, patrons will continue to find a stimulating non-traditional study of …

Free Websites Of Value For Humanities Students And Faculty Researchers, Eileen Mcelrath
Free Websites Of Value For Humanities Students And Faculty Researchers, Eileen Mcelrath
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
Studies show that faculty members, particularly those in social sciences, arts, and humanities, question the accuracy, reliability, and sufficiency of web resources for research. Undergraduate students, on the other hand, report that the web provides them information that they use to complete assignments. The purpose of this study is to find free web sites of value for humanities researchers and librarians. The study uses a content analysis of the annotated lists of librarian-evaluated free websites published in Reference & User Services Quarterly from 1999 to 2005 to determine the ones of value for Humanities researchers. Findings to date include approximately …
Parallel Systems: The Coexistence Of Subject Cataloging And Folksonomy, Elaine Peterson
Parallel Systems: The Coexistence Of Subject Cataloging And Folksonomy, Elaine Peterson
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
Catalogers have always had to balance adherence to cataloging rules and authority files with creating cataloging that is current and relevant to users. That dilemma has been complicated in new ways because of user demands in the world of Web 2.0. Standardized cataloging is crucial for communication between computer systems, but patrons now have an expectation of social interaction on the Internet, as evidenced by the popularity of folksonomy. After a description of traditional subject cataloging and folksonomy, this article discusses several institutions where subject cataloging is still used, but where patron interaction is also encouraged. User-generated tags can coexist …
