Research On Temporal Knowledge Graph Completion Method For Emergent Events Based On Bigru And Graph Contrastive Learning, Peng Wu, Zhenyu Lu, Xuechen Zhang

Journal of Scientific Information Research

[Purpose/significance] During emergencies, social media short texts contain critical information but are heavily interfered with by noise. Traditional static knowledge graph completion techniques struggle to effectively address their dynamic evolution and data sparsity issues, making it imperative to introduce temporal modeling methods. [Method/process] This study proposes a dynamic completion framework that combines the temporal feature capture capability of Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Units (BiGRU) with the noise-resistant representation learning advantages of Graph Contrastive Learning (GCL). At the completion level, the ConBiTE method is introduced, which captures temporal dependencies through self-attention mechanisms and BiGRU, while leveraging GCL to enhance the completion of …

Library Programming And Marketing Best Practices For Gen Z Audiences, Maria Atilano

Library Presentations & Publications

A lot has changed in marketing and outreach in the last decade, but this question remains the same: how do we reach audiences we wish to serve? The Gen Z audience (those born in the late 1990s and early 2000s) are unlike other generations that came before them. These digital natives who have never been without the internet would seemingly be easy to reach with social media content and advertisements, but that’s not always the case. Join Maria Atilano, Student Engagement Librarian at the University of North Florida, for an enlightening webinar that explores how best to reach and engage …

An Alignment Of Absences: The Medicalization Of Death And Its Implications On Archaeological Methodology, Makayla J. Bowman

Departmental Honors & Graduate Capstone Projects

Absence describes something that is "expected, wanted, or looked for [but] is not present or does not exist," (Merriam-Webster Dictionary 2026). The archaeological discipline interacts with absence in many profound ways, largely in its study of the past dead. This paper focuses on the ways in which the medicalization of death has influenced, limited, and misaligned archaeological methodology, and how the result of those methodologies produces archaeological analysis that is absent of or misrepresents our understanding of life, personhood, and our position within a greater, interconnected biosphere. Thus, I present an anthropological critique of the ways in which death and …

Slow Librarianship For Healthier Libraries And Library Workers, Meredith Farkas

Bryant Jackson Lectureship

We live in an individualistic achievement society that encourages people to chase external validation by putting the focus on innovation and competition over collaboration and collective care. Many of these dynamics are at play in the library and information science profession, leading to toxic cultures of scarcity, low morale, burnout, and disproportionate harm to BIPOC library workers and patrons. We have the power to imagine new futures that will equip us to better serve our patrons and support our collective well-being. Slow librarianship focuses on relationship-building, values-driven work, quality over quantity, solidarity, antiracism, and reflective practice.

Farkas is a faculty …

Writing As A Process Of Inquiry In Autoethnography For Meaning-Making: Reflections And Some Points For Consideration, Niroj Dahal

The Qualitative Report

This article explores writing as a process of inquiry and meaning-making in the autoethnographic tradition, offering reflections on the recursive, emergent, and dialogical/dialectical nature of writing, along with some points for consideration. Drawing on perspectives from qualitative research and narrative inquiry (Riessman, 2008), I argue that autoethnographic writing serves as a method of inquiry and/or discovery, generating ontological, epistemological, and axiological-driven cultural meaning that functions as a site of reflection, interrogation, and re-storying of lived experiences. This recursive, often messy, and reflexive act allows researchers to excavate, analyze, and interpret their lived experiences. Rather than viewing writing as a final-stage …

Reposisi Literasi Kearsipan Dalam Lanskap Transformasi Digital, Primus Sanbein

Jurnal Ilmu Informasi, Perpustakaan, dan Kearsipan

Digital transformation has fundamentally reshaped the nature of archives, not only in terms of technological media but also in how archives are understood, interpreted, and accounted for. In this context, archival literacy is often narrowly framed as a set of technical skills or individual competencies, a perspective that inadequately captures the complexity of digital archives that are dynamic, distributed, and embedded in contemporary information practices. This article aims to reframe archival literacy as a conceptual lens within the landscape of digital transformation. Adopting a reflective and conceptual approach, the article situates archival literacy within information literacy discourse while examining shifts …

Exploring The Development Of Bibliometric Research In Indonesia, Wiwit Ratnasari, Rona Nisa Sofia Amriza

Jurnal Ilmu Informasi, Perpustakaan, dan Kearsipan

The growing availability of large bibliographic databases and analytical tools has accelerated the adoption of bibliometric methods across research fields worldwide. In Indonesia, bibliometric approaches have been widely applied across diverse domains; however, existing studies remain largely discipline-specific and lack a comprehensive national-level overview of how bibliometric research itself has developed. This study addresses this gap by conducting a systematic bibliometric analysis of bibliometric publications produced by Indonesian researchers. A total of 532 publications published between 2017 and 2025 were retrieved from the Scopus database and analyzed using bibliometric techniques, including descriptive analysis of study characteristics, co-authorship analysis, co-citation analysis, …

Perilaku Informasi Seniman Digital Terhadap Karya Artificial Intelligence Di Media Sosial, Anindita Ferrensya, Indira Irawati

Jurnal Ilmu Informasi, Perpustakaan, dan Kearsipan

The rapid development of AI has introduced new capabilities, including generating artwork without direct human intervention. However, this advancement has also raised concerns in the art world, such as unauthorized use of artists’ works and the potential decline of human creative labor. This study examines the information behavior of digital artists who are students at the University of Indonesia toward AI-generated artwork, using Wilson’s Model of Information Behavior (1996). A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected through structured interviews with five informants and literature review, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings show that participants generally held an …

A Practical Approach To Ir Policy Creation And Revision, Nicole R. Webber

University Libraries Publications

The process of policy development and revision often suffers reduced prioritization, particularly when staffing levels limit dedicated expertise and the time necessary for thorough evaluation. International surveys reveal common tendencies for institutional repository policies to lack desired degrees of comprehensiveness, refinement, or consistency, creating operational uncertainty and inhibiting long-term sustainability. This presentation addresses this pervasive gap, not by offering a case study or example documentation, but by introducing a structured, adaptable framework to guide policy development and maintenance, regardless of institutional size, platform, or maturity.

Drawing on a review of case studies and policy literature, a consolidated, openly licensed set …
