Basic guidance is supplemented by comprehensive references to professional literature, standards, web sites etc. to enable the reader to further their studies at their own pace.

They are thought to be ‘nice to have’ but not essential. In this ground-breaking book, Patrick Lambe shows how they play an integral role in helping organizations coordinate and communicate effectively. Through a series of case studies, he demonstrates the range of ways in which taxonomies can help organizations to leverage and articulate their knowledge. A step-by-step guide in the book to running a taxonomy project is full of practical advice for knowledge managers and business owners alike.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eDefining our terms\u003cbr\u003e Taxonomies can take many forms\u003cbr\u003e Taxonomies and infrastructure for organisational effectiveness\u003cbr\u003e Taxonomies and activities for organisational effectiveness\u003cbr\u003e Taxonomies and knowledge management\u003cbr\u003e What do we want our taxonomies to do?

As quality is highly subjective and difficult to measure, citations are used as a proxy. Citations are an important part of scholarly communication and a significant component of research evaluation, with the assumption being that highly cited work has influenced the work of many other researchers and hence it is more valuable. Recently we have seen new online data sources being researched for this purpose and disruptive ideas with the power to change research assessment, and perhaps even science as a whole, have been born. \u003ci\u003eAltmetrics\u003c\/i\u003e is the new research area that investigates the potential of these new data source as indicators of the impact that research has made on the scientific community and beyond, and thus possibly also as indicators of the societal impact of research.

Based on experience of successful and unsuccessful systems, the author recognises the need to convert learning into action. For this to happen, there needs to be a series of key steps, which the book guides the reader through.

Library 3.0 explores the ongoing debates on the “point oh? phenomenon and its impact on service delivery in libraries. This title analyses Library 3.0 and its potential in creating intelligent libraries capable of meeting contemporary needs, and the growing role of librarians as apomediators. Library 3.0 is divided into four chapters. The first chapter introduces and places the topic in context. The second chapter considers “point oh? libraries.

Its themes include archives as a web of recorded information: new information technologies have presented dilemmas, but also potentialities for managing of the interconnectedness of archives. Another theme is the relationship between evidence and memory in archives and in archival discourse. It also explores recordkeeping and accountability, memory, societal power and juridical power, along with an examination of issues raised by globalisation and interntionalisation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe chapter authors are researchers, practitioners and educators from leading Australian and international recordkeeping organisations, each contributing previously unpublished research in and reflections on their field of expertise.

It introduces readers to the institutional culture, functions, and records common to museums, and examines the legislative and regulatory environments affecting record-keeping practices. The book is comprised of eight chapters, including: a history of records keeping in the UK museum and gallery sector; the basics of records management; making a business case for records management; requirements of legislation for records management; how to conduct a records survey; strategy and action planning; how to develop a file plan, retention schedule and records management programme; and a guide to useful additional resources.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of figures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcronyms\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the authors\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: The history of record keeping in the UK museum and gallery sector\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRecord keeping in museums: roles\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRecord keeping in museums: record types\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Records management basics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat is a record?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat is records management?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe ‘difference’ between archives and records management\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBasic records management concepts\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Making a business case for records management\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCompile a business case\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe importance of communication\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Legislation and records management requirements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublic Records Acts 1958 and 1967\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLocal government legislation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eData Protection Act 1998\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFreedom of Information Act 2000\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEnvironmental Information Regulations 2004\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOther relevant legislation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: The records survey\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy conduct a survey?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePre-survey: the importance of planning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe survey: issues and tips\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePost-survey: analyse, summarise and report\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Strategy and action planning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhy to plan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow to plan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHow to make the plan into a strategy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePlanning for required resources\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Developing a file plan, retention schedule and records management programme\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbstract:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe file plan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe records retention schedule\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eImplementing a records management programme\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA final word\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Resources\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUK legislation and regulations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpoliation and repatriation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProfessional bodies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDiscussion lists\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUseful guidance and training\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStandards\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendices: policies, forms and checklists\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 1: Risk assessment template and scoring framework\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 2: Business case example\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 3: Sample data protection survey form\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 4: Museum record series commonly containing personal data\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 5: Sample data protection policies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 6: Sample data protection statements\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 7: Data subject access request form\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 8: Sample records management policy\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 9: Museum record series commonly containing environmental information\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 10: Records survey questionnaire forms\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 11: Supplies checklist template\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 12: Sample records transfer instruction and forms for staff\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Library, archive \u0026amp;

Fred Cummins has hit the mark by aggregating the many tributaries of agility instead of picking one pattern and\/or technology. This is a sophisticated and integrated atlas that is a challenge for IT professionals to implement, but a must for flourishing organizations.\" \u003cb\u003e--Jim Sinur, Vice President, Gartner\u003c\/b\u003e\"Never before has technology been so close to the business. In fact, technology is becoming more and more embedded in the business. This means that change has to go hand in hand on both at the business and the technology side, — or that technology has to at least support the high demands of business change. In particular, enterprise agility is a major requirement for those organizations that want to succeed in this new world dominated by rapid change. Business are increasingly asked to change and to react quickly to changes in market conditions — look at what’s happening currently in the car manufacturing space with the increases in petrol prices or in the financial community with the sub-prime crises as just two examples. This book provides a marvelous, clear, and comprehensive road map of how key technologies such as service-oriented architecture, business process management, and model-based management are instrumental and key in realizing a truly agile enterprise. It explains why and how a structured and strategic approach to SOA, along with the adoption of other available paradigms and technologies, can enable future enterprise agility. As Fred suggests, this is a must-read for CIOs, enterprise architects, and IT management in general that is embracing transformation and innovation programs; I would go further and say that some key chapters will make great reading for CxOs outside IT and in the driving seat of the enterprise.\" \u003cb\u003e--Diego Lo Giudice, Principal, Forrester Research\u003c\/b\u003e\"The author, Mr. Cummins, has already made a tremendous contribution to the discipline of Enterprise Business Management through his leadership in the development of business modeling standards as a co-chair of the Object Management Group's Business Modeling and Integration Domain Task Force. This book breathes life into those standards, with simple and clear explanations of how to apply these and other information technology standards in what is described as the Agile Enterprise, incorporating and expounding upon the most important trends in the advancement of information technology, such as Service Oriented Architecture and Business Process Management, culminating in a what he defines and explains as the discipline of Model Based Management. The authors level of experience is obvious from the generous use of industry examples and analogies.

Not only has it increased the speed of operations and communications, but it has also undermined basic assumptions of traditional business models and increased the number of variables. Today, the survival of major corporations is challenged by a world-wide marketplace, international operations, outsourcing, global communities, a changing workforce, security threats, business continuity, web visibility, and customer expectations.

Research skills are a prerequisite for those who want to work successfully in information environments, an essential set of tools which enable information workers to become information professionals. This book focuses on producing critical consumers of research. It also goes some way towards producing researchers in the fields of information management and systems.The first edition of this book was enthusiastically received by researchers, students and information professionals in Australia and beyond. Reviews of the first edition considered it a “a worthwhile addition to any information professional’s or research student’s reference shelf? (Archives \u0026amp; Manuscripts). This new edition has an additional chapter on ethics, to address the importance of the ethical implications of research. It also has (as did the first edition) two unique characteristics: it is Australian-focused, distinctive among research texts for information professionals; and it has a multi-disciplinary focus, with its authors being drawn from information management (librarianship, archives and recordkeeping) and information systems. The numerous examples throughout the book are drawn from these multiple disciplines. The first edition of this book was road-tested with students from several disciplines who are studying in several universities. Its Introduction noted that \"In research terms, the content have been refereed and found to be authoritative!\" To this can be added the many satisfied users of the first edition.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSection 1 Introduction to research methods: Introduction to research in relation to professional practice\u003cbr\u003e The two major traditions of research\u003cbr\u003e The beginning stages of research\u003cbr\u003e Ethics in research.

The theory provides the conceptual underpinnings for a new approach which moves away from expert defined standardised metadata to a user driven approach with users as metadata co-creators. Moving away from definitive, authoritative, metadata to a system that reflects the diversity of users’ terminologies, it changes the current focus on metadata simplicity and efficiency to one of metadata enriching, which is a continuous and evolving process of data linking. From predefined description to information conceptualised, contextualised and filtered at the point of delivery. By presenting this shift, this book provides a coherent structure in which future technological developments can be considered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter One: Overview of Standards-based Metadata Approaches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Two: Changing Users’ Needs\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Three: The Web 2.0 Paradigm and the Emergence of Socially-Constructed Metadata Approaches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Four: The Emergence of Socially-Constructed Metadata Approaches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Five: The Principle of  Metadata Enriching\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Six: The Principle of  Metadata Linking\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Seven: The Principle of Metadata Openness\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Eight: The Principle of  Metadata Filtering\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Nine: The Emergence of a Theory of Metadata Enriching and Filtering\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter Ten: Implications of the Emergent Theory of Metadata Enriching and Filtering\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConclusion and Future Research \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: IT, Internet \u0026amp; electronic resources in libraries [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on IT, Internet \u0026amp; electronic resources in libraries\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22IT,%20Internet%20\u0026amp;%20electronic%20resources%20in%20libraries%20%5BGLF%5D%22\"\u003eGLF\u003c\/a\u003e], Library \u0026amp; information sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Library \u0026amp; information sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Library%20\u0026amp;%20information%20sciences%20%5BGL%5D%22\"\u003eGL\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Chandos Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648814076184,"sku":"9780081003855","price":46.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780081003855_3e2ba8d3-374e-4fef-b298-1719e0009a8c.jpg?v=1695004122"},{"product_id":"distributed-learning-pedagogy-and-technology-in-online-information-literacy-instruction-paperback-9780081005989","title":"Distributed Learning; Pedagogy and Technology in Online Information Literacy Instruction (Paperback \/ softback) 9780081005989","description":"\u003cfont face=\"Georgia\"\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"6\"\u003eDistributed Learning\u003c\/font\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cfont size=\"5\"\u003ePedagogy and Technology in Online Information Literacy Instruction\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book provides evidence based information on a variety of issues surrounding online teaching, including tactics for those studying remotely\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\"\u003eTasha Maddison (Edited by), Maha Kumaran (Edited by)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e9780081005989, Elsevier Science\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePaperback \/ softback, published 10 October 2016\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e472 pages\u003cbr\u003e22.9 x 15.1 x 3 cm, 0.52 kg\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Distributed Learning: Pedagogy and Technology in Online Information Literacy provides a thorough investigation of how higher education institutions are incorporating web-based tools and distributed learning strategies to promote and support IL [information literacy]. ...Distributed learning information literacy resources and support have the potential to touch all students within higher educational institutions, and continued research, such as this volume, is needed to help make this happen.\" \u003cb\u003e--ROLE \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe field of distributed learning is constantly evolving.

reviews both the historical and future roles that public, private, academic and special libraries have in supporting and shaping society at local, regional, national and international levels. Globalisation, economic turmoil, political and ethnic tensions, rapid technology development, global warming and other key environmental factors are all combining in myriad and complex ways to affect everyone, both individually and collectively. Fundamental questions are being asked about the future of society and the bedrock organisations that underpin it. Libraries and Society considers the key aspects of library provision and the major challenges that libraries – however defined, managed, developed and provided – now face, and will continue to face in the future. It also focuses on the emerging chapter in cultural, economic and social history and the library’s role in serving diverse communities within this new era.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e

geared toward library and information science professionals, including librarians, software developers and information systems architects who want to understand the fundamentals of graph theory, how it is used to represent and explore data, and how it relates to the semantic web. This title provides a firm grounding in the field at a level suitable for a broad audience, with an emphasis on open source solutions and what problems these tools solve at a conceptual level, with minimal emphasis on algorithms or mathematics. The text will also be of special interest to data science librarians and data professionals, since it introduces many graph theory concepts by exploring data-driven networks from various scientific disciplines. The first two chapters consider graphs in theory and the science of networks, before the following chapters cover networks in various disciplines.

Rather than a ‘How to’ text on performing research, this book presents a record of experiences. Research so often evolves in the field or the planning stages and a successful researcher need to be aware of serendipitous opportunities as they arise and how to solve problems as they occur. The book comprises an introduction written by the editors followed by thirteen chapters written by different contributors. The introduction draws together the disparate experiences that follow and discusses the ways in which the contributors, all of whom are respected researchers, dealt with and learned from the research experience. In the following chapters, the contributors describe and reflect on the research process, the challenges they met during their research and the lessons learned. The style varies, but includes narratives, anecdotes and descriptions of individuals’ experiences as research was designed and carried out and the results generated.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSerendipity and flexibility in social science research: Meeting the unexpected.

The careful curatorial attention to such records has also ensured that such records remain available to researchers and the public as sources of knowledge, memory, and identity. Digital curation presents an important framework for the continued preservation of digitized and born-digital collections, given the ephemeral and device-dependent nature of digital content. With the emergence of analog and digital media formats in close succession (compared to earlier paper- and film-based formats) came new standards, technologies, methods, documentation, and workflows to ensure safe storage and access to content and associated metadata. Researchers in the digital humanities have extensively applied computing to research; for them, continued access to primary data and cultural heritage means both the continuation of humanities scholarship and new methodologies not possible without digital technology. \u003ci\u003eDigital Curation in the Digital Humanities,\u003c\/i\u003e therefore, comprises a joint framework for preserving, promoting, and accessing digital collections. This book explores at great length the conceptualization of digital curation projects with interdisciplinary approaches that combine the digital humanities and history, information architecture, social networking, and other themes for such a framework. The individual chapters focus on the specifics of each area, but the relationships holding the knowledge architecture and the digital curation lifecycle model together remain an overarching theme throughout the book; thus, each chapter connects to others on a conceptual, theoretical, or practical level. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.

However, the traditional gold standards are not sufficient, and the effective evaluation of information requires the consideration of additional factors. Controversies about positive evaluations of new medications that appear in peer-reviewed journals, the financial reports on Enron prior to the revelations that led to its collapse, and obstacles to the publication of research that does not conform to dominant paradigms are just a few examples that indicate the need for a more sophisticated and nuanced approach to evaluating information.Each of the factors is discussed in a factual manner, supported by many examples that illustrate not only the nature of the issues but also their complexity. Practical suggestions for the evaluation of information are an integral part of the text.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eThe gold standards\u003cbr\u003e Sponsorship and funding\u003cbr\u003e Research paradigms\u003cbr\u003e The dissemination of research\u003cbr\u003e Moving beyond the gold standards: Tools and techniques.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Examinations \u0026amp; assessment [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Examinations \u0026amp; assessment\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Examinations%20\u0026amp;%20assessment%20%5BJNKD%5D%22\"\u003eJNKD\u003c\/a\u003e], Library \u0026amp; information sciences [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Library \u0026amp; information sciences\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Library%20\u0026amp;%20information%20sciences%20%5BGL%5D%22\"\u003eGL\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Chandos Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46649014812952,"sku":"9781843345435","price":50.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781843345435.jpg?v=1696713232"},{"product_id":"google-and-the-digital-divide-the-bias-of-online-knowledge-paperback-9781843345657","title":"Google and the Digital Divide; The Bias of Online Knowledge (Paperback \/ softback) 9781843345657","description":"\u003cfont face=\"Georgia\"\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"6\"\u003eGoogle and the Digital Divide\u003c\/font\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cfont size=\"5\"\u003eThe Bias of Online Knowledge\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"4\"\u003eElad Segev (Author)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e9781843345657\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePaperback \/ softback, published 21 January 2010\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e256 pages\u003cbr\u003e23.3 x 15.6 x 1.7 cm, 0.46 kg\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eBeneficial to scholars and students in the fields of media and communication, politics and technology, this book outlines the significant role of search engines in general and Google in particular in widening the digital divide between individuals, organisations and states. It uses innovative methods and research approaches to assess and illustrate the digital divide by comparing the popular search queries in Google and Yahoo in different countries as well as analysing the various biases in Google News and Google Earth. The different studies developed and presented in this book provide various indications of the increasing customisation and popularisation mechanisms employed by popular search engines, which together with “organising the world’s information? inevitably also intensify information inequalities and reinforce commercial and US-centric priorities and agendas.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of figures and tables\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Power, communication and the internet\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCommunication and power\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe emergence of the internet\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe various faces of the digital divide\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe online knowledge\/power nexus\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe emergence of the information society\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe power of interfaces\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e‘Informational politics’ online\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: The structure and power of search engines\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA short history of information search\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe challenge of the deep web\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe challenge of the internet infrastructure\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInformation protection and digital ‘islands’\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterest\/internet conflicts\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eControl over informational commons\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe European answer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe long tail of search engines\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Google and the politics of online searching\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle’s big idea\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle’s search engine mechanism\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle’s customised search\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle’s additional services\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle Scholar\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle Translate\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle’s global control by local use\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReinforcing online allegiance\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOnline manipulation and punishment\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Users and uses of Google’s information\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMethodology\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eData sources\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA cross-national comparison\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMain classification system\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReliability of coding: the hidden intention\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEconomic and political value index\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVariety of uses\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpecificity of search index\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eExtent of locality\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInitial predictions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResults and analysis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSummary and discussion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Mass media channels and the world of Google News\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOnline transformation of media and news\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCommercial motives and their implications\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle World News\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDominant online states\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInternational concern\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInternational network\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe language dimension\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSummary and conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Google’s global mapping\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGoogle Earth and Google Maps\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBiases in scope\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe national security dimension\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSummary and discussion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7: Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe importance of information and communication\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe power of the search engine\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e‘Googling’ and the politics of online search\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInformation uses in Google and Yahoo!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe world of Google News\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe bias of Google mapping\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe impact of popularisation mechanisms\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe future of search engines\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom personal advisers to global advertisers\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe future of the information society\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Epilogue\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix A: Search engines statistics\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix B: Data for statistic analysis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBibliography\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Library \u0026amp;

It analyses the realities of offering services such as education, translation, editing and writing, and then considers the challenges and benefits that result when these boundaries are consciously blurred. It thus provides an opportunity for readers to reflect on their professional roles and the services that will best serve their clients’ needs. A recurring theme is, therefore, the interaction between language professional and client-author. The book offers insights into the opportunities and challenges presented by considering ourselves first and foremost as writing support professionals, differing in our primary approach (through teaching, translating, editing, writing, or a combination of those) but with a common goal. This view has major consequences for the training of professionals who support English-language publication by NNES academics and scientists. Supporting Research Writing will therefore be a stimulus to professional development for those who support English-language publication in real-life contexts and an important resource for those

From among the various types of relevant literacies, at least three types of literacies can be mentioned in this relation: information literacy, scientific literacy and academic literacy. This book addresses these literacies in the light of the changing research landscape. Broad contexts of the researcher’s abilities, as adaptive and innovative thinking, problem solving skills, self-management and design mindset are also examined. Computational thinking and the computational paradigm in a number of fields of research are taken into consideration, as well. Researchers differ to non-researchers when populating social media, which means that these two different groups require different literacies. The relationship between information literacy and information is approached in a new way. Among the multitude of issues, we introduce a new interface between information literacy and Research 2.0. It encompasses the issues of research data management and data literacy, which represent also a challenge both for the academic library and for the communities of researchers. Similarly, the questions of new metrics of scientific output are addressed in the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1.
