METS |
The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata
regarding objects within a digital library, expressed using the XML schema language of the World Wide
Web Consortium. The standard is maintained in the Network Development and MARC Standards Office
of the Library of Congress, and is being developed as an initiative of the Digital Library Federation. |

OCLC/RLG Preservation Metadata Working Group |
Preservation metadata is an essential component of most digital archiving strategies. It is the
information necessary to carry out, document and evaluate the processes that support the long-term
retention and accessibility of digital content.
While the importance of preservation metadata is widely recognized, standards and best practices
for its use and implementation have yet to emerge. This poses a serious obstacle to the growth and
development of digital archiving activities, especially those involving cooperative or third-party
relationships among multiple stakeholders. |

URN form NIR |
Allo stadio attuale di sviluppo, sul portale www.normeinrete.it sono offerte funzionalità di ricerca uniformi della
documentazione normativa disponibile sui diversi siti web istituzionali, mentre le funzionalità di navigazione
ipertestuale sono quelle rese disponibili autonomamente da ciascun sito.
La possibilità di percorrere la rete dei riferimenti è determinante per la comprensione del dettato normativo e
quindi per l'effettiva fruibilità delle norme da parte dei cittadini, delle imprese e degli altri operatori. D'altra parte,
le attività redazionali necessarie richiedono un impegno di risorse considerevole e continuativo nel tempo.
I meccanismi di navigazione finora disponibili si basano sulla localizzazione fisica dei documenti. La definizione di
convenzioni per identificarli in base ad elementi rappresentativi del contenuto consente di introdurre automatismi
nella creazione dei collegamenti, favorendo così la creazione di un ipertesto delle risorse informative giuridiche
distribuite sui siti web. |

Prestige factor vs Impact factor |
What does Impact Factor measure?
Impact Factor (IF) measures the frequency that a journal is cited by other journals.
However, IF fails to distinguish between original and review article citation rates. Thus,
by mixing “apples and oranges”, IF rates do NOT measure the true value of journals
reporting scientific advances since innovative research is published only in original
articles.
Since review articles receive over 3 times as many citations as original articles,
journals consisting of a large percentage of reviews have inflated rating scores.
Therefore, IF can be a distorted and misleading indicator!
What does Prestige Factor measure?
Like IF, Prestige Factor™ (PF) measures the frequency that a journal is cited by other
journals. However, PF takes into account ONLY citations to original articles. Thus, PF
measures the true value of journals that publish scientific advances since innovative
research is published only in original articles.
Therefore, PF measures the true value of Academic Journals!

Encoding OpenURLs in Dublin Core metadata |
This article proposes a mechanism for embedding machine parsable citations into Dublin Core (DC) metadata records [1] based on the OpenURL [2]. It suggests
providing partial OpenURLs using the DC Identifier, Source and Relation elements together with an associated 'OpenURL' encoding scheme. It summarises the
relevance of this technique to support reference linking and considers mechanisms for providing richer bibliographic citations. A mapping between OpenURL attributes
and Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (DCMES) [3] elements is provided.

Metadata Principles and Practicalities |
The rapid changes in the means of information access occasioned by the emergence of the World Wide Web have spawned an upheaval in the
means of describing and managing information resources. Metadata is a primary tool in this work, and an important link in the value chain of
knowledge economies. Yet there is much confusion about how metadata should be integrated into information systems. How is it to be created or
extended? Who will manage it? How can it be used and exchanged? Whence comes its authority? Can different metadata standards be used
together in a given environment? These and related questions motivate this paper |

Guidelines for implementing Dublin Core in XML |
his document provides guidelines for people implementing Dublin Core metadata applications using XML. It considers both simple
(unqualified) DC and qualified DC applications. In each case, the underlying metadata model is described (in a syntax neutral way),
followed by some specific guidelines for XML implementations. Some guidance on the use of non-DC metadata within DC metadata
applications is also provided. |

The Library of Congress' Network
Development and MARC Standards Office, with interested experts,
is developing a schema for a bibliographic element set that may be
used for a variety of purposes, and particularly for library applications.
As an XML schema it is intended to be able to carry selected data from existing
MARC 21 records as well as to enable the creation of original
resource description records. It includes a subset of MARC fields
and uses language-based tags rather than numeric ones, in some
cases regrouping elements from the MARC 21 bibliographic format.
This schema is currently in draft status and is being referred to as
the "Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS)". MODS is expressed
using the XML schema language of the World Wide Web Consortium.
The standard is maintained by the Network Development and MARC
Standards Office of the Library of Congress with input from users. |

Library Journal |
LibraryJournal.com is an electronic offshoot of Library Journal, the oldest independent national library publication. Founded in 1876, this 'bible' of the library world is read by over 100,000 library directors, administrators, and others in public, academic, and special (e.g., business) libraries.
Published 20 times annually, LJ combines news, features, and commentary with analyses of public policy, technology, and management developments. In addition, some 7500 evaluative reviews written by librarians help readers make their purchasing decisions: reviews of everything from books, audio and video, CD-ROMs, websites, and magazines.
Each issue reviews 250 to 350 adult books, mostly prior to publication, making it a source librarians as well as publishers turn to for early evaluations.

Internet a-t-il une mémoire / Emmanuel Hoog |
On ne se baigne jamais deux fois dans le même flot virtuel. Tout omniscient
qu'il soit, le média du futur ne se souvient pas de ce qu'il disait hier.
Une mine de connaissances, certes, mais avant tout un flux où passe sans
sillage l'information, Internet s'efface à mesure qu'il sécrète. Le Web,
fleuve d'amnésie ? Jusqu'ici notre patrimoine s'est patiemment constitué,
collectant et préservant des supports matériels. Cette autorité de l'être
n'a plus cours : média d'une inédite fluidité, Internet consacre le règne
du devenir. Chance historique de progrès, c'est aussi un défi sans
précédent : garder trace du flux, en photographier les instants, en suivre
le mouvement, lui donner une mémoire, qui, pour l'heure, lui fait défaut.
Sans cet immense travail d'archivage, des pans entiers de notre culture
disparaîtront à jamais. |

OAIster |
The OAIster project is one of the Mellon Foundation Metadata Harvesting Initiative grants awarded to
7 institutions in July 2001. The institutions were tasked with developing web services of digital
resources that use the OAI protocol. The OAIster service is designed to reveal digital resources
previously "hidden" from users behind web scripts. Users are able to retrieve not just information
(metadata) about resources, but also the actual digital resources. We expect the service to provide
"one-stop shopping" for users interested in authoritative digital resources. |

DIGITAL DOCUMENT QUARTERLY(DDQ) |
Whenever misleading information might cause serious business damage or loss, its users should reject it in favor of nothing but reliable sources. Information
obtained through any channel not known to assure authenticity is not dependable enough for critical decisions. For instance, the World Wide Web is not
reliable for important facts; they should be obtained or confirmed through other channels. For applications where secrecy is important, people should be
skeptical about e-mail from unverified sources or not sealed for confidentiality / H.M. Gladney |

How much information |
Stracitatissimo sito: This study was produced by faculty and students at the School of Information Management and Systems at the University of California at Berkeley.
This study is an attempt to measure how much information is produced in the world each year. We look at several media and estimate yearly production, accumulated stock, rates of growth, and other variables of interest.
If you want to understand what we've done, we offer different recommendations, depending on the degree to which you suffer from information overload:
Heavy information overload: the world's total yearly production of print, film, optical, and magnetic content would require roughly 1.5 billion gigabytes of storage. This is the equivalent of 250 megabytes per person for each man, woman, and child on earth.

Creolisation |
In spite of the differences, there are some important resemblances
between the various conceptualisations of "the creole", which resonate with the theoretical concept of
creolisation: Creoles are uprooted, they belong to the New World, are the products of some form of
mixing, and are contrasted with that which is old, deep and rooted. This contribution sets out to
discuss the concept of the creole -- related both to language and to people -- as it is used in Mauritius,
and then relate the Mauritian situation to the general use of the concept of creolisation |
| 72 |
Pigdinisation & creolisation |
Pidgin language (origin in Engl. word `business'?) is nobody's native language; may arise when two speakers of different languages with no common language
try to have a makeshift conversation. Lexicon usually comes from one language, structure often from the other. Because of colonialism, slavery etc. the
prestige of Pidgin languages is very low. Many pidgins are `contact vernaculars', may only exist for one speech event.
«We first discuss what is Pidginization.
Hugo Schuchardt describes pidginization as "in a contact situation involving 2 groups speaking different languages the simplified language used for communication ... will be based on one of the two ... Within the contact language, variations attributable to the native language background of the individual speaker may occur. A contact language may thus be related to any native language as a tree to its roots . . . In many cases the choice of the particular form that the simplification will take rests with the speaker of the model language." And Dell Hymes defines pidginization to be a "complex process of sociolinguistic change comprising reduction in inner form, with convergence, in the context of restriction in use." The process of pidginization is usually assumed to begin when a language is used only for very limited communication between groups who speak different native languages. Sharply restricted in domains of use, it undergoes varying degrees of simplification and admixture. If a new stable variety of the language emerges from this process, it might be described as a pidgin.
We can regard pidginization as the initial restructuring of a language by a group of speakers; this entails structural reduction and substrate transfer. In summary, a pidgin is a form of language created by members of two or more linguistic groups in contact as a means of intercommunication, the most basic grammatical rules of which are common to all its habitual users regardless of their own primary language, while at least one and perhaps all of the participating groups recognize that this means of intercommunication is not the primary language of any other.
A creole language arises when a pidgin becomes the native language of a speech community. Creolization is the process by which one or more pidginized variants of a language are extended in domains of use and in the range of communicative and expressive functions they must serve. Frequently, but not necessarily, this process is associated with native use by children born into the contact situation. The pidginized variants are assumed to undergo complication and expansion of linguistic resources in the process, and the term creole may be used for any new stable variety that results from this process. Thus, a creole is a result of the process that has achieved autonomy as a norm.
To compare pidginization with Creolization, we can find that pidginization is usually associated with simplification in outer form, creolization with complication in outer form. There are qualitatively different stages in the development of a pidgin: Jargon->Stable pidgin->Expanded Pidgin->Creole.

libraries is described, sample RFP language is provided, and compliance
assessment issues are discussed. "Having recently participated in
writing an RFP, I wish I'd had this Guide in hand," stated Priscilla
Caplan, Assistant Director of Digital Library Services at the Florida
