Redefining the reference librarian in the university environment

Author(s): Lenuța Ursachi / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2020

The reference librarian and the services provided hold more than ever the attention of users at the “Dunărea de Jos” University Library of Galati (DJULG). The Internet, technology and struggle for survival left a significant mark on both librarians' skills and reference services in the new context of the information society. In order to align with new trends in librarianship and to respond effectively to the increasingly complex demands of users, the reference librarians had to move beyond the traditional and reinvent themselves. As a result, new skills have been acquired and new services emerged in the information landscape of the university library. // The paper examines the evolution of the reference services at DJULG over the last ten years, emphasizing the changes of the librarian profile in this area. The variety of information sources, the emergence of new information technologies, the movement on open access have been the main elements that contributed to the professional development of the reference librarian and the implementation of new models of services for users. The case of the university library in this study reveals different profiles of the reference librarian: researcher, educator in information literacy, bibliometrician, wikilibrarian, digital resources manager, reference manager etc. Not far from the truth, we can say that the reference librarian became a chameleon, from the perspective of information evolution and ensuring sustainable library services.

The need for understanding the features of transformational changes of traditional and modern library services in order to improve library services is proved. Conclusions. Transformations of traditional library services into modern ones are shown. Digital libraries use technology and networks to connect people with resources in order to provide universal access to them. When comparing traditional and modern library services, important points were highlighted that are crucial for the creation of a modern library. First, librarians must change to meet today's challenges. The future will require them to re-orient, think creatively, and master new technological skills to create information resources and services. Librarians must be aware of modern trends and adapt to social and technological changes, as they are the only professionals suitable for scholars and citizens to appropriately evaluate online resources and provide accurate information. Second, the improvement of traditional library services is necessary, and the introduction of new methods and equipment becomes vital to bridge the gap between traditional and modern library services through integrated library management software. Information technology is essential for the rapid growth of modern library services, as the Internet and related technologies have opened up an entirely new environment for providing improved information resources and services to users.

СОЦІАЛЬНІ МЕДІА ЯК ДЖЕРЕЛО ДОСЛІДНИЦЬКОЇ ІНФОРМАЦІЇ

Author(s): Liudmyla Doskich / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 3/2023

The purpose of the article is to demonstrate, based on the analysis of foreign and domestic publications, how social networks become an additional source of information for obtaining research and practical information of various directions. The research methodology is based on the inclusive use of general scientific (analysis, synthesis, comparison, descriptive, generalisation) and special research methods, in particular information science and the science of social communications. The bibliographic method, methods of processing textual information and content analysis of scientific information resources were not least important. The scientific novelty of the study consists in actualising attention to the practical-research possibilities of social networks as a source of basic or auxiliary information. Conclusions. The topics of publications that represent the possibilities of using social networks as a source of information for various purposes are quite broad and interesting for both scientists and marketers and other specialists. In general, we observed two important trends: firstly, despite the fact that the majority of users (for example, 76.6% of Ukrainians) use social networks to obtain information and communicate, their role as a source of information for practical application at work is increasingly growing, conducting various studies, presenting conclusions about various facts and trends that prevail in social life, as well as for the purpose of improving marketing or business projects. Secondly, perhaps due to the actualisation of the first trend, research has recently intensified, which presents the analysis of publications devoted to the use of social networks with different purposes in different areas, for example, in education, tourism, and so on. The latter makes it possible to quickly navigate a large array of publications and decide on those that can be useful for the implementation of research, work or business tasks related to the need to analyse information from social networks.

ЕЛЕКТРОННИЙ АРХІВ ЯК ЗАСІБ ШВИДКОГО ДОСТУПУ ДО УПРАВЛІНСЬКОЇ ІНФОРМАЦІЇ

Author(s): Ruslan Kravets,Pavlo Boyko,Oleksandr Markovets / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 4/2023

The purpose of the article is to carry out a comprehensive analysis of the document flow of the city council and to develop models that will highlight the internal processes of electronic document flow after its implementation in the institution. The research methodology consists of the study of scientific works that highlight the methods of electronic archives and the storage of electronic documents in them, the analysis of the state of the city council in the implementation of information technologies in the work process of the institution and the selection of the necessary software, studying the economic possibilities of the institution and the prospects of using their electronic products in the field of document management. The scientific novelty consists in expanding the understanding of the need to modernize the document flow in state institutions of Ukraine, in particular in the city council, by analyzing the prospects of such innovations, detailing the internal processes of the electronic archive, and choosing a technological solution to the set goals. Conclusions. The transfer of state institutions to electronic archives will make it possible to speed up the processes of document circulation and save on the provision of physical archives. The implementation of online solutions for document management is becoming an increasingly common phenomenon because Ukraine is digitizing at a rapid pace, but problematic sectors remain, such as institutions in small towns and villages. The process of implementing electronic archives based on professional systems costs a lot of money, however, if the community does not have the necessary funds, it can be implemented completely free of charge with the help of Google Sheets. The system of electronic archives will allow institutions to work not only more efficiently, but also more safely because in times of war, there are always risks for employees, so if necessary, access to the system will be from any place where there is access to the Internet.

ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ ІННОВАЦІЙНИХ БІБЛІОТЕЧНИХ ТЕХНОЛОГІЙ ТА ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ БІБЛІОТЕК ДЛЯ ДІТЕЙ У ДИСЕРТАЦІЙНИХ ПРАЦЯХ УКРАЇНСЬКИХ НАУКОВЦІВ

Author(s): Vitalii Ilnitskyi / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 4/2023

The purpose of the article is to analyze the main directions of dissertation research by Ukrainian scientists regarding the use of innovative technologies in libraries, with an emphasis on libraries for children. The research methodology is based on the use of general scientific (analysis, synthesis, generalization, etc.) and special research methods based on the specifics of the scientific task (bibliographic, information analysis, descriptive content analysis, etc.). The scientific novelty of the study consists in highlighting the main directions of dissertation work on the use of information technologies in libraries for children, with an outline of the prospects for further research. Conclusions. The main task of the modern library is the constant expansion of its activities. In the conditions of digitization of society, access to them should be obtained by anyone who has a computer or other technological device connected to the Internet, and accordingly - to the library network. Therefore, in a modern library, in particular, a children's library, a wide variety of digital elements and resources are increasingly offered for use, all that is necessary for adaptation to new technologies and to meet the dynamic needs of users. The library should not oppose digitalization, but on the contrary - unite with it, the use of digital technologies should become a normal and necessary condition of its services. All these aspects of transformational changes should not only be taken into account in the activities of the library for children, but also actively studied within the framework of librarian science. At the moment, it is possible to note sufficient articulation in the dissertation works of Ukrainian scientists of the main aspects of informatization, which is considered the foundation of the development of digital technologies. However, the latter has not yet received significant attention in the work of librarians. In addition, it is worthy of attention to study the main directions, functions and components of digitalization of libraries for children, which, in our opinion, as high-tech multimedia environments involving the tools of the information and communication approach are able to implement the main tasks of the socio-cultural mission - socialization, inculturation, formation of interest in reading and teaching.

Електронні технології на виборах та референдумах: теорія і практика

Author(s): Kateryna Pavshuk / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 162/2023

The article is devoted to the study of the theory and practice of using electronic technologies in elections and referendums in the context of guaranteeing the established international principles of electoral law. The relevance of the topic is related to the adoption of the Law of Ukraine "On the All-Ukrainian Referendum", which allows the use of information and telecommunication technologies during its organization and conduct. The subject of the study is the theory and practice of using electronic technologies in elections and referendums in Ukraine and abroad. The purpose of the article is to analyze the use of electronic technologies in the process of administration, preparation and conduct of elections, which can be similarly used in the all-Ukrainian referendum in the context of ensuring the principles of electoral law, and also to clarify the technical side of their implementation. The study applies the method of analysis and synthesis of scientific information, comparative legal and dialectical methods of scientific cognition. The norms of domestic legislation on holding elections and the all-Ukrainian referendum on the use of electronic technologies have been studied. International standards of the implementation of e-voting technology, as well as the main recommendations of the Venice Commission and the Committee of Ministers on preventing violations of the principle of fair and free elections during the use of information technologies, were analyzed. Special attention was paid to the study of legal opinions of courts of foreign countries regarding problematic aspects and possible violation of voting principles when using e-voting technology (USA, Germany, India, Albania). It was concluded that the international community does not distinguish between using of electronic voting programs in elections and referendums, applying the same approaches to the implementation of electoral principles. Recommendations for domestic legislative activity and the practice of election administration are outlined. The possible use of such leading information and telecommunication technologies as biometric identification, online registration of political parties and candidates, electronic voting, optical scanning of paper ballots, recording of a paper trail, cryptography, etc. has been revealed. The analysis of judicial practice made it possible to conclude that in order to comply with the public nature of the election process it is important to guarantee cybersecurity, protection of personal data and the results of will detection by recording a paper trail. Finally, attention was drawn to the problem of legislative regulation of electronic procedures during the allUkrainian referendum without their consistency and harmonization with the provisions of the Election Code of Ukraine.

PROJEKT: „CYFROWE UDOSTĘPNIANIE ZASOBÓW POLSKIEJ AKADEMII NAUK – BIBLIOTEKI KÓRNICKIEJ” – REALIZOWANY W LATACH 2016–2019

Author(s): Magdalena Biniaś-Szkopek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 36/2019

Projekt został w znaczącej mierze dofinansowany ze środków Unii Europejskiej. Przy jego realizacji zaangażowanych było sześć rozbudowanych zespołów pracowników Biblioteki Kórnickiej oraz wiele dodatkowych osób zatrudnionych na czas jego trwania. Głównym celem projektu było udostępnienie najcenniejszych zbiorów Biblioteki w wersji elektronicznej naukowcom, studentom i hobbystom na całym świecie. Szczególny nacisk położono na średniowieczne rękopisy i inkunabuły oraz część muzealiów (przede wszystkim obrazy). Zaczęto od ponownego, szczegółowego ich opracowania. Zadanie to przyniosło wiele niespodzianek, m.in. przedatowano kilka cymeliów (w tym rękopiśmienną Biblię, którą pierwotnie datowano na wiek XV, a po szczegółowej analizie okazało się, że pochodzi ona z XIII wieku). Największe poruszenie w świecie bibliotekarskim wzbudziło jednak odkrycie, na oprawie jednego z kórnickich inkunabułów, ksylografu przedstawiającego tzw. Turris sapientiae (Wieżę mądrości) datowanego na ok. 1475 rok. Dzieło wydrukowane jest w formie diagramu, gdzie autorzy porządkowali, w sposób ułatwiający zapamiętanie, pojęcia istotne dla doktryny chrześcijańskiej. Warto podkreślić wyjątkową rzadkość występowania tego typu materiałów – w Polsce jest to zaledwie trzeci ze wszystkich zachowanych ksylografów. Z kolei samo dzieło jest jednym z pięciu zachowanych na całym świecie egzemplarzy (pozostałe znajdują się w największych bibliotekach Europy – w Oksfordzie, Londynie, Norymberdze i Jenie).

Scientific information discovery and access: A bibliographic review

Author(s): Blanca Rodríguez-Bravo / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2023

This review study is based on original research studies investigating how scientific information is discovered and accessed. The study highlights the role of various platforms, including search engines, databases, repositories, web-scale discovery services, academic social media, and illegal platforms like Sci-Hub in this process. The results indicate that while libraries have implemented discovery services and repositories to increase their role in the discovery and access field, Google and Google Scholar are still the most popular options for discovering scientific information. Additionally, databases such as Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed are also used by users, and newer platforms like ResearchGate and Sci-Hub have gained popularity for accessing scientific information.
