information resource Description Creating and managing metadata

Philip hider, Charles Sturt University, Australia

NEW

FOR 2012

This book serves as a primer on information and knowledge organization, with particular reference to metadata practices in the digital environment. It introduces the conventions and standards of contemporary document description, and the principles and trends of professional practice. This timely book employs the unifying mechanism of the semantic web and the resource description framework to integrate the various traditions and practices of information and knowledge organization. Uniquely, it covers both the domain-specific traditions and practices and the practices of the ‘metadata movement’ through a single lens – that of resource description in the broadest, semantic web sense. This approach more readily accommodates coverage of the new Resource Description and Access (RDA) standard, which aims to move library cataloguing into the centre of the semantic web. The work surrounding RDA looks set to revolutionise the field of information organization, and this book will bring both the standard and its model and concepts into focus. Key topics include: • information resource attributes • tools and systems • metadata sources • metadata quality • sharing metadata • standard structures and formats • standard vocabularies • the future of metadata. This book is essential reading for LIS students taking information organization courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, information professionals wishing to specialise in the metadata area, and existing metadata specialists who wish to update their knowledge.

COLLECTION MANAGEMENT Metadata for Digital Collections A how-to-do-it manual

stephen J Miller, University of Wisconsin â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Milwaukee, USA

NEW

More and more libraries, archives, and museums are creating online collections of digitized resources. Where can those charged with organizing these new collections turn for guidance on the actual practice of metadata design and creation? To Metadata for Digital Collections: a how-todo-it manual. This practical, hands-on volume will make it easy for readers to acquire the knowledge and skills they need, whether they use the book on the job or in a classroom. Author Steven Miller introduces readers to fundamental concepts and practices in a style accessible to beginners and LIS students, as well as experienced practitioners with little metadata training. He also takes account of the widespread use of digital collection management systems such as CONTENTdm.

Rather than surveying a large number of metadata schemes, Miller covers only three of the schemes most commonly used in general digital resource description, namely, Dublin Core, MODS, and VRA in greater depth and provides practical examples that clarify common application issues and challenges. He provides practical guidance on applying each of the Dublin Core elements, taking special care to clarify those most commonly misunderstood. The book includes a step-by-step guide on how to design and document a metadata scheme for local institutional needs and for specific digital collection projects. The text also serves well as an introduction to broader metadata topics, including XML encoding, mapping between different schemes, metadata interoperability and record sharing, OAI harvesting, and the emerging environment of Linked Data and the Semantic Web, explaining their relevance to current practitioners and students. Each chapter offers a set of exercises, with suggestions for instructors. A companion website (www.neal-schuman.com/metadata-digitalcollections) includes additional practical and reference resources. 2011; 230pp; paperback; 978-1-85604-771-5; ÂŁ54.95

COLLECTION MANAGEMENT resource Description and Access (rDA) The rDA Toolkit

Designed for the digital world and an expanding universe of metadata users, RDA: Resource Description and Access is the new, unified cataloging standard—an evolution of the cataloging principles from AACR2, with rules carried over or adapted to the RDA model. Benefits of RDA include: • A structure based on the conceptual models of FRBR (functional requirements for bibliographic data) and FRAD (functional requirements for authority data) to help catalog users find the information they need more easily • A flexible framework for content description of digital resources that also serves the needs of libraries organizing traditional resources • A better fit with emerging database technologies, enabling institutions to introduce efficiencies in data capture and storage retrieval

The online RDA Toolkit subscription provides a onestop resource for evaluating and implementing RDA, and is the most effective way to interact with the new standard. It includes searchable and browseable RDA instructions; two views of RDA content, by table of contents and by element set; user-created and sharable workflows and mappings—tools to customize RDA to support your organization’s training, internal processes, and local policies; links to other relevant cataloguing resources; and searchable and browseable full text of AACR2 with links from AACR2 to RDA. This full-text print version of RDA offers a snapshot that serves as an offline access point to help solo and part-time catalogers evaluate RDA, as well as to support training and classroom use in any size institution. An index is included. The online RDA Toolkit includes PDFs, but purchasing the print version offers a convenient, time-saving option. To subscribe to online the rDA Toolkit visit

RDA elements are the data elements described by RDA instructions and encoded in formats such as MARC, Dublin Core, and others. Online, the RDA Element Set also offers links to current and evolving encoding standards documentation (currently MARC 21, with others planned over time) and to applicable national library policy statements (currently LCPS, with others planned over time). The RDA: Element Set is available both online on the Tools tab in the RDA Toolkit and in print, organized in two parts (sold as a single package). Part 1, Attributes, describes the characteristics of the FRBR and FRAD entities, such as ISBN, ISSN, publisher, date of publication, scale, or type of score. Part 2, Relationships, includes data elements that describe the relationships among the FR entities, such as created by, composed by, or subject of, and the index to the entire Element Set. The Element Set is offered in print as an offline access point for the single and partial cataloger institutions to evaluate RDA, as well as to support training and classroom use in any size institution. The RDA Toolkit includes printable PDFs, but the snapshot-in-time print version offers a convenient, time-saving option. August 2012; 1008pp; looseleaf; 978-1-85604-750-0; £125.00

rDA: strategies for implementation Magda el-sherbini

NEW

FOR 2012

In RDA: Strategies for Implementation, Magda ElSherbini tackles the key questions surrounding how the new cataloguing standard will be implemented by cataloguing professionals. The book offers an orientation in the conceptual background and the structure of RDA from a practical and technical perspective, including a detailed comparison with AACR2. Coverage of FRBR and FRAD will examine FRBR-driven tasks; FRBR-Group relationships; principles of FRAD and how FRAD impacts the RDA application; and RDA structure. Readers will find analysis of the role of manifestations and items, including precataloguing decisions, preferred sources of information, and mandatory elements of description. El-Sherbini discusses works and expressions for specific library materials, from methods of recording primary relationships to constructing the authorized access point and recording relationships. She also offers advice for using the RDA Online Toolkit, including creation of workflows and tips on efficient navigation in the Toolkit via its flexible browsing and searching techniques. Finally, the book discusses a variety of technical issues including RDA’s effect on OPAC displays; implemention of the new RDA fields that represent adding new elements; adjusting systems to accommodate the new MARC21 fields; integrating new records using RDA with older records; when to re-catalogue a set of manifestations; exporting an RDA-based bibliographic record from OCLC into the OPAC; choosing RDA elements to describe your library materials (core vs. full elements); and upgrading OCLC records to RDA. An appendix offers numerous sample RDA records.

introducing rDA A guide to the basics

Chris oliver

‘This is the best explanation I have yet seen on RDA as a whole. I would strongly recommend buying this book for your library, so that everyone can understand the new changes and standards that will influence how libraries and others will deal with the description and organization of information in the future.’ - ColleCTion builDing

‘The book provides a basic understanding of how our work will transition once we adopt RDA. There is a good general introduction to RDA... There is an especially good introduction to the use of the RDA Toolkit, including descriptions of Toolkit navigation and explanations of how the Toolkit may be integrated into our work…Introducing RDA could provide an introduction for the uninitiated technical services librarian, for library administrators and for interested public services or systems folks. It’s a good first step toward the understanding needed for application or use.’ – TechknoW

NEW

FOR 2012

This very practical guide, offering a comprehensive overview of best practice, is aimed at the non-specialist, assuming only a basic understanding of IT and offering guidance as to how to implement strategies with minimal time and resources. Digital preservation has become a critical issue for institutions of all sizes but until recently has mostly been the preserve of national archives and libraries with the resources, time and specialist knowledge available to experiment. However, as the discipline matures and practical tools and information are increasingly available the barriers to entry are falling for smaller organizations which can realistically start to take active steps towards a preservation strategy. However, the sheer volume of technical information now available on the subject is becoming a significant obstacle and a straightforward guide is required to offer clear and practical solutions. Each chapter covers the essential building blocks of digital preservation strategy and implementation such as: • making the case for digital preservation • understanding your requirements • models for implementing a digital preservation service • selecting and acquiring digital content. This is an essential handbook for anyone involved in digital preservation in medium or smaller sized organizations and those wanting to get a better understanding of the process. It’s also a useful guide to digital preservation basics for students studying library and information science, archives and records management courses and academics getting to grips with practical issues.

This is an essential practical guide for academics, researchers, librarians and professionals involved in the digital humanities.

LIBRARY MANAGEMENT The electronic Copyright handbook Paul Pedley, the Economist Intelligence Unit, UK

NEW

FOR 2012

The Electronic Copyright Handbook provides library and information professionals with practical guidance to minimise the risk of copyright infringement This book considers how copyright applies to a wide range of electronic content types including; API’s, EBooks, blogs, wikis, RSS feeds, emails, streaming, podcasts, broadcasts, databases, social networking sites and GUI’s. Author Paul Pedley looks at activities which are especially relevant to library and information services such as the lending of electronic content and the mass digitization of content from a library collection and considers activities undertaken by internet users such as deep linking, filesharing, mashups, and scraping; and the copyright issues associated with those activities. The text draws upon relevant legislation as well as numerous examples of legal disputes and court decisions both from the UK, the Europe, and the USA. There is an entire chapter devoted to the Digital Economy Act 2010 and how it works in practice through the use of copyright infringement reports, copyright infringement lists, quality assurance reports; as well as the use of technical measures, penalties, appeals, and costs. It also sets out a series of practical measures libraries can undertake in order to comply with the Act. Copyright exceptions such as those for fair dealing, library privilege, the making of a temporary copy, visual impairment, and the public interest are all considered, and how they apply in an electronic context is explained. The handbook looks at licences for e-content such as Creative Commons, open access, and the open government licence; as well as the range of microlicensing solutions available through registries such as ARROW, standards for permissions such as ACAP, and services such as Rightslink and iCopyright. The book also considers the way in which rights are enforced, both from the point of view of protecting your own content; and also rightsowners enforcing their rights where people have made use of third party content without permission. The section on enforcement covers technological protection measures; notice and takedown; Norwich Pharmacal Orders; extradition; fines and prosecutions; and the existence of copyright trolls. The final chapter examines the findings of the Hargreaves Review of Intellectual Property and Growth which included proposals for a Digital Licensing Exchange, a solution to the problem posed by orphan works, regulation of the collecting societies, and the expansion of the copyright exceptions to cover activities such as text mining, limited private copying, parody, library preservation & archiving.

The second part deals with how to stay within the law, and what one can do proactively to minimize the risks associated with copyright infringement.

Records and Information Management for the 21st Century P Franks

NEW

FOR 2013

This book provides a comprehensive, strategic approach to the creation, management, and disposition of information and records in organisations and is the first to analyse the impact that cloud computing and emerging technologies such as social networks and microblogging has on records management programmes.

The emergence of Web 2.0 and social media has fundamentally changed the way information is created, exchanged, and stored. Information is a valuable asset to be employed by the organisation to help meet its goals, but it can also pose a risk to the organisation if not effectively managed. The increasingly complex regulatory and legal environment, along with the growing volume and changing nature of records and information created through emerging technologies, has brought records and information management to the attention of executives who are ultimately responsible for the success or failure of their organisations. This book provides readers either an introduction to or a review of records management principles and practices, but with a consideration of the impact on those principles and practices made by records created through the use of emerging technologies and stored in the clouds.

This book will be of interest to students of archives and records management, experienced archives and records professionals who want a new perspective on their chosen field, supervisors and managers with the responsibility for records and information management and upperlevel managers, executives, and other decision makers who are responsible for effectively managing their organisation’s information assets.

Creating a Complete Programme for Electronic Records Retention

NEW

FOR 2012

Carol E. B. Choksy, Indiana University, USA

Covering everything from planning to implementation to policy refreshment, this is the essential, step-by-step guide for anyone struggling to implement a program for scheduling electronically stored information (ESI).

Records managers and archivists are routinely called upon to develop programmes for scheduling retention or disposition of electronic information. Yet, there has been no comprehensive guide to the ins and outs of this process—until now. Creating a Complete Program for Electronic Records Retention fills that gap with a one-stop resource that covers planning, development, implementation, and maintenance across a variety of organizational contexts.

The guide addresses the practicalities of creating and using schedules, as well as the broader duties of managing the expectations and performance of employees. It discusses ways to cultivate the skills needed to undertake such tasks, and it stresses the importance—and encourages the continued application—of the scheduling programme, something that is often overlooked. Plus, you’ll discover advice on everything from funding to workshops to compliance. In addition to pointing out what should be done, the text also offers readers an overview of potential obstacles, providing helpful illustrations of mistakes made in the past. Throughout, author Carol E. B. Choksy draws on her extensive experience with electronically stored information and retention schedules to impart valuable field experience and lessons-learned. Her book’s step-by-step format will enable readers to follow a logical progression as they embark on an ESI scheduling project, making a vast and complex process clear and actionable.

Information 2.0

New models of information production, distribution and consumption

NEW

FOR 2012

Martin De Saulles, University of Brighton, UK

We live in a society transformed by the revolution in technology in which consumers expect their information to be free and available at their fingertips wherever they are. It’s essential for information professionals and students of these disciplines to understand how the landscape has changed, what the driving factors are and how this has impacted on the information providers, creators and users.

Covering every aspect of the new digital information environment from iPads and e-books to the future of information and how it will be controlled, this landmark textbook provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge guide to what’s happening, why and how information professionals can have a pivotal role in this new landscape.

Drawing on international case studies and current trends it explores the fundamental changes in the four core areas of information production, storage, distribution and consumption, grappling with cutting-edge issues such as:

• key information trends in the last 15 years such as mass broadband • the rise of grass roots information production in social media, open access • publishing and the storage of information in the cloud • how informal, digital methods of information distribution like RSS and webcasting are threatening traditional stakeholders like libraries, publishers and newspapers • how multiple new devices and formats have enabled information consumption at any time and in any place, sparking new behaviours such as information snacking • the need for a new information literacy and the pivotal role of the information professional.

This is an essential textbook for students taking courses in library and information science, publishing and communication studies; with particular relevance to core modules exploring the information society. It’s also an indispensable guide for academics and practitioners who need to get to grips with the new information environment. May 2012; 192pp; paperback; 978-1-85604-754-8; £44.95

Digital Information Order or anarchy

Hazel Woodward and Lorraine Estelle, editors

This collection addresses the major issues of the digital revolution from an academic perspective and is a plea for librarians and publishers to respond urgently to the scholarly needs of the Google generation. The challenges it exposes are, though relevant to the information industry in the widest sense, and trade publishers, national and public libraries and bookshops would do well to heed the questions it raises. – JOLIS

This book carves out a strategy for the future of digital information. Put together by an international, cross-sectoral team of contributors, each authored chapter provides a snapshot of where we are now and considers how the barriers to success might be overcome and what the digital information environment might look like if these issues are – or indeed are not – addressed. They include: • digital information: an overview of the landscape • scholarly communications: the view from the library • scholarly communications: the publisher’s view • e-books and scholarly communication futures • digitizing the past: next steps for public sector digitization • resource discovery • who owns the content in the digital environment?

REFERENCE WORKS THE NEW WALFORD GUIDE TO REFERENCE RESOURCES SERIES

The New Walford (TNW) is the most substantial work of its kind in the English language. TNW provides a pathway through the huge quantity of information now accessible via the web.

If you are approaching a subject for the first time, TNW will get you on your way, guiding you to the best starting points for your query. For the information professional, TNW’s new way of categorizing resources reflects the fundamental changes that have taken place in the scientific, business, political and social information landscapes. This guide is valuable for professionals worldwide who need to suggest resources to people who are relatively unfamiliar with the nuances of a topic and who are asking ‘where should I start?’
