Exploring Critical And Indigenous Research Methods With A Research Community: Part I – The Leap, Robert Schroeder

Library Faculty and Staff Publications and Presentations

Librarians create collections of works grounded in many western academic forms of research and they conduct research using many of these qualitative and quantitative methodologies as well. But are there perhaps research methods around the margins, ones that might help us ask different questions or let our research serve different ends? In this, the first of two articles, I describe how I discovered critical and indigenous research methods and how my research became grounded in a digital community.

Semantic Ontologies For Multimedia Indexing (Somi): Application In The E-Library Domain, Issam Bendib, Mohamed Ridda Laouar, Richard Hacken, Mathew Miles

Faculty Publications

Purpose – The overwhelming speed and scale of digital media production greatly outpace conventional indexing methods by humans. The management of Big Data for e-library speech resources requires an automated metadata solution.

Design/methodology/approach - A conceptual model called Semantic Ontologies for Multimedia Indexing (SOMI) allows for assembly of the speech objects, encapsulation of semantic associations between phonic units, and the definition of indexing techniques designed to invoke and maximize the semantic ontologies for indexing. A literature review and architectural overview are followed by evaluation techniques and a conclusion.

Findings - This approach is only possible because of recent innovations in …

The Advice Not Taken: How One Repository Found Its Own Path, Paul Royster

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries: Presentations

Managers of institutional repositories are offered much advice, from national organizations (like SPARC) and promoters of movements like Open Access or products like Creative Commons licenses.
