Studia Humaniora Ouluensia 8

Abstract

The papers in this proceedings of USE-2008. From Information Provision to Knowledge Production conference held to celebrate the 20^th anniversary of Information Studies at the Faculty of Humanities, University of Oulu, Finland share a common perspective – the contributors seek to provide a multidisciplinary account of knowledge production in different contexts. The first keynote paper provides a detailed review of the issues facing managers and users of digital infrastructure who must balance the demands of data management with those of scientific publication. The second keynote contribution explores documentary practices and the materiality of science at the micro level focusing on interpersonal and transinstitutional acknowledgments.

The contributed papers that make up the rest of the volume address the conference theme from a range of viewpoints. The first four explore knowledge management in different contexts – the difficulties of converting industrial experience into formal knowledge systems; the motives and tradeoffs that are involved in online knowledge sharing; the generation of knowledge through strategic dialogue; and the harvesting of informal travel tips in FAQ sites. The fifth paper discusses the ‘readiness’ of government agencies in Namibia for electronic record keeping, and the sixth paper presents empirical observations on the daily media and information behaviour of senior citizens leading to concrete actions. The seventh contribution analyses citation as a discursive practice, using Dervin's work on sense-making as an example, and the last paper offers a deeper analysis than is usual in LIS of the knowing subject in the work of Descartes, making a distinction between philosophical and sociological interpretations. The authors' short CVs conclude this proceedings.

2) Identifying existing innovative uses of web technology in archives and related fields.
3) Discussing how applicable the existing archival business model is in the current and emerging information environment, and proposing modifications or a whole new model.)

“The report is organized by categories of service that could be enabled with better metadata. Each section includes an inventory of available tools, assessment of those tools, and an evaluation of what might be accomplished in the future. The information gathered here provides a reference framework for members of the cultural heritage community to use when considering their own tool development priorities, and a road map for areas that would benefit from collaborative efforts.”

Virtual Knowledge Studio

"The Virtual Knowledge Studio for the Humanities and Social Sciences (KNAW) supports researchers in the humanities and social sciences in the Netherlands in the creation of new scholarly practices and in their reflection on e-research in relation to their fields.

A core feature of the Virtual Knowledge Studio is the integration of design and analysis in a close cooperation between social scientists, humanities researchers, information technology experts and information scientists. This integrated approach provides insight in the way e-research can contribute to new research questions and methods."

"“Talking with You: Exploring Interpersonal Information-seeking” was recently funded by the National Science Foundation. The study explores why people turn to other people for everyday information ranging from finding new jobs and lower mortgages, to healthcare, housing, childcare, social activities, and other aspects of daily life. It aims to expand empirical and theoretical knowledge of interpersonal information-seeking with a long-term focus on devising ways for improving information systems."

Collaborative librarianship

http://www.collaborativelibrarianship.org/index.html

"Increasingly, libraries are moved to seek partnerships with other libraries, with other organizations in the information and technology fields, with other entities in our institutions, and with other groups and enterprises in our communities. While partnerships of all sorts have had a long history in the field of librarianship, today, as never before, there is greater urgency to develop and exploit library partnerships, and to think widely and creatively on new types of, and potentials for, partnerships.

Published materials appear from time to time on library cooperation and partnerships. Most recently, the America Library Association produced the volume, Burgett, James, John Hear and Linda L. Phillips. Collaborative Collection Development. A Practical Guide for Your Library (Chicago: ALA, 2004), 211 p. From time to time, articles appear in various library journals. These welcomed items provide insightful analyses of cases and opportunities of cooperative librarianship. At present, to my knowledge, there is no journal dedicated to the topic of cooperative librarianship, or dedicated to any aspect of resource sharing or coordinated library services.

As the issue rises in importance and urgency, perhaps now is the time to create an organum for treating consistently and comprehensively the matter of cooperative librarianship.

Features of Collaborative Librarianship include:

Open Access/Online Availability
Peer Reviewed Scholarly Articles
Better/Best practices
Engagement of a Wide Scope of Issues
library-to-library cooperation
sharing resources and expertise
library-to-business partnerships
local, regional, national and international collaboration
professional, consortium and association partnerships
history of library collaboration
The journal contains six sections: Editorials, Scholarly Articles, From the Field, Viewpoints, Reviews and News."

Social Information Literacy

The implication of people’s Lay Information Mediary Behavior (LIMB) is the need for a new approach to the delivery of information literacy — an approach we coin Social Information Literacy. In addition to comprising the core elements of traditional information literacy — “to be able to identify, locate, evaluate, and effectively use information” (National Forum on Information Literacy, 2010) — Social Information Literacy premises that individuals be attuned to the information situations of others, that they have the skills to surface people’s information needs, and know how to optimally provide information (i.e., the right information, in the best format, in the right way at the right time), while utilizing personal information management systems. Social Information Literacy thus promotes 21st century skills by extending traditional information literacy to reflect people’s broader range of everyday life information behavior.

Dream

Last night I dreamt about a research project that you were carrying out. I was one of the participants together with former colleagues of mine from the Computer science department at *** University. We were all supposed to qualify as “information professionals”. You wanted us to look at and handle a rather substantial collection of printed bibliographies and classification systems. You said you wanted to find out if we showed any signs of particular appreciation when we were flicking through these old publications – if they “had something” that digital versions don’t have. It was all set up as an experiment. However, when we were to start our examination of the documents, which were gathered in a few rather big stacks, the stacks fell over and ended up in a mess on the floor; you then calmly explained that the experiment had to be postponed.

Irving, C. (2009).Collecting case studies / exemplars of good practice to enrich The National Information Literacy Framework (Scotland). Library and Information Research. 33(105)

Abstract
This paper discusses the challenges, process and reasons for collecting case studies / exemplars of good practice from practitioners to enrich The National Information Literacy Framework (Scotland). The lessons learned show that there is a tendency for people to think they are not doing anything special and therefore do not respond to emails for exemplars of good practice. They are however once contacted happy to share their practice. It is therefore essential to use networks of contacts, leave plenty of time to talk, visit and work with people on submitting their work as a case study / exemplar. Sharing practice also contributes to professional development both for the individual and their community and to the field of research.
