    「加拿大BIBFRAME準備工作組」(Canadian BIBFRAME Readiness Task Force)簡介

    美國國會圖書館(Library of Congress, LC)作為接續MARC鏈結資料之書目框架計畫(BIBFRAME)已於2018年6月發布BIBFRAME 2.0,加拿大圖書館與檔案館(Library and Archives Canada, LAC)及加拿大圖書館學會(The Canadian Federation of Library Associations - La Fédération canadienne des associations de bibliothèques, CFLA-FCAB)隨之共同組成「加拿大BIBFRAME準備工作組」(Canadian BIBFRAME Readiness Task Force),為構成大多圖書館整合系統和圖書館服務平台基礎之MARC的過渡與轉移預做準備,包括制定加拿大BIBFRAME策略文件、提出完整之培訓、教育和宣導建議,以便幫助加拿大圖書館對於未來發展做出明智的决定。

    該工作組的任務為制定以下文件,包括:
    •概述自MARC轉移為BIBFRAME對加拿大圖書館的影响;
    •評估加拿大圖書館對於BIBFRAME過渡之理解和準備情况;
    •就加拿大圖書館學會(The Canadian Federation of Library Associations-La Fédération canadienne des associations de bibliothèques, CFLA-FCAB)、和其編目與詮釋資料標準委員會(Cataloguing and Metadata Standards Committee/ Comité sur les normes relatives au catalogage et aux métadonnées, CMSC-CNCM)、以及環境文獻聯盟(Fédération des milieux documentaires, FMD)如何支持加拿大圖書館朝向BIBFRAME過渡提出建議。

    「加拿大BIBFRAME準備工作組」(Canadian BIBFRAME Readiness Task Force)於2018年秋季開始運作,於2019年春季發布初步報告,並於2020年5月公布「加拿大BIBFRAME準備工作組最終報告」《Final Report of the Canadian BIBFRAME Readiness Task Force》(http://cfla-fcab.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Final-Report-Canadian-BIBFRAME-Readiness-Task-Force.pdf)。

    該最終報告中納有該工作組針對加拿大境內5,812所圖書館隨機抽樣1,500所圖書館進行BIBFRAME認知調查,於287所圖書館的調查回覆中發現大多數受訪者在調查之前未聽過BIBFRAME,並且表示對於BIBFRAME 的了解不够,因此無法規劃如何將圖書館的MARC過渡為BIBFRAME。即使這些受訪者中在接受調查前曾經聽過BIBFRAME,但是對於BIBFRAME 的知識和相關概念所知仍然非常少,很少圖書館能預備好從MARC過渡到BIBFRAME。

    最終報告特別強調有關加拿大BIBFRAME需支援多語,即相關的RDF詞彙表應同時提供英語和法語版本,而鏈結資料的部分則是能以多種語言展現圖書館之目錄,並且考量加拿大多數原住民語文。雖然本項過渡可能發生在未來的10-15年間,但是工作組仍然建議聯合CFLA-FCAB/LAC/FMD等三個單位共同努力及觀察有關BIBFRAME的發展,以為加拿大所有圖書館的預期過渡做好準備,並且建議在「加拿大BIBFRAME準備工作組」(Canadian BIBFRAME Readiness Task Force)下另外增加5個新的工作小組:

    1.      通訊與資訊共享(Communication and Information Sharing)工作小組
    2.      持續的組織支持(Continued Organizational Support)工作小組
    3.      社群參與(Community Engagement)工作小組
    4.      標準發展參與(Participation in Standard Development)工作小組
    5.      社群對教育和專業發展之支持(Community Support for Education and Professional Development)工作小組
     

    RDA Toolkit將進行伺服器變更

    RDA Toolkit於6月1日發布「RDA Toolkit伺服器變更」的訊息。即2021年5月起,在新開發人員的支援及維護下,RDA Toolkit和相關網站將開始進行轉移至新的伺服器上。本次轉移項目包括access.rdatoolkit.orgorginal.rdatoolkit.orgrdatoolkit.orgrda-rsc.org等網站。這些網站現有內容都將會被傳輸至新的伺服器上。本項轉移工作預訂於2021年9月1日前完成,並且對於RDA Toolkit使用者幾乎没有影响,僅有以下兩項例外:

    1.      提供一個新的管理系統作為此過渡時期的一部分,以便用於使用者帳戶和登入作業之管理。新的系統將持續支援IP認證及使用者帳戶ID登入或配置設定名稱(profile name)登入。雖然會採取一切可能的步驟以避免相關問题,但是此類型的轉移通常仍會存在一些登入的困擾。
    2.      從2021年9月1日起,舊有RDA Toolkit將不再支援新工作流程的創建及其他使用者建立的文件,且9月1日以後也不再支援現有工作流程的編輯。所有現有使用者所建立的文件,都將轉移至新的伺服器上,並且根據文件規格(例如:Global、Local或Private)提供檢索。

    Implementation of RDA in Cataloguing and Classification in 21st Century: Issues Challenges and Prospects

    Purpose: The primary goal of each librarian and cataloger is to organize library services to satisfy the users' information-seeking needs, such as searching, locating, selecting, and obtaining the necessary information resources from the users within a limited period of time. With the implementation of the Resource Description and Access (RDA) on 4 April, 2013 in the United States and other nations, catalogers and qualified librarians face difficulties in gaining access to the training and preparation needed. Against this context, the study examined an overview of the implementation of RDA in cataloging and classification in the 21st century: concerns and prospects.

    Design/Methodology/Approach: Contextual research that included a study of materials from journals, texts, and the Internet was the approach adopted.

    Implication: The ability of libraries to completely fulfill their primary function of meeting the library and information needs of the community they serve will be diminished by any restriction of access, whether intentional or unintended. They need to be equipped with the requisite technical equipment, expertise, and skills to meet this demand to strengthen their ability to create quality cataloging records for their library resources for easy scanning and retrieval by their library users of library resources.

    Originality/value: In summary, sufficient funding, staff training, infrastructure provision and maintenance, corruption eradication, and management support have been recommended as a way forward to tackle the problems facing cataloguers in implementing RDA in their university libraries' cataloging and classification practices.

    Measuring the applicability of user-generated social tags along with expert-generated LCSH descriptors in Sociology: a heuristic study
    The study attempts to compare user-generated social tags with expert-generated LCSH descriptors of one thousand sociology books. The objective is to examine if social tags can be used to enhance the accessibility of library collections. The study found that both datasets do not follow the same vocabulary. Though, the Spearmans’ rank correlation (0.89) indicates a good association between common terms in both vocabularies. The Jaccard similarity coefficient (J = 0.13, 0.14, 0.17, 0.15 and 0.16) in different word clusters proves that top frequent social tags and top frequent LCSH descriptors used by users and experts are different. The comparison with each book also reveals that 555 books (55.5%) have 50 to 100 percent matching between both vocabularies. LCSH descriptor vocabulary contains more subject terms (24) than social tag vocabulary (12) out of the top thirty frequent terms. The comparison of social tags with MARC subfields ($a, $x, $y, $z, $v) reveals that users use more or less all the subfield terms as tags but either they do not use chronological terms ($y) for tags or use different terms other than experts for chronological information. Further, comparison with each book title reveals that social tags alongside LCSH descriptors can enhance the title-based search of libraries. Moreover, the study suggests that usage of social tags will not only enhance the accessibilities of library resources under sociology but also complement to controlled vocabularies by supplementing a variety of terms other than experts.
    新書介紹: Technical Services in the 21st Century (Advances in Library Administration and Organization, Vol. 42)

    While librarianship in general has had to respond to constant revolutionary change, technical services have faced much more immediate challenges, having nearly been completely reimagined in the 21st century. By showcasing the work of technical services, and the ground-breaking changes they have encountered, this edited collection provides readers with an opportunity to re-assess the opportunities and challenges for library administration, and to understand how libraries should be managed in the future.  

    Including thirteen chapters from a variety of libraries, this collection examines several aspects of technical services work in the 21st century. The authors offer thoughtful applied theoretical solutions to practical problems encountered by library administrators and managers in four broad categories: planning and assessment, workflows, data, and acquisitions. Geared at library managers and administrators, readers of this volume may understand new trends in technical services work, how previous structures and workflows fit in and are evolving, and the new ways that in which we might describe, assess and carry out what we do in libraries.
