Cel/Teza: Celem badania opisanego w niniejszym artykule było prześledzenie, jak kryzysowa sytuacja, spowodowana rozprzestrzenianiem się wirusa COVID-19 wpłynęła na pracę bibliotecznych systemów informacyjnych i informatycznych, na podstawie analizy danych z Biblioteki Uniwersyteckiej w Warszawie (BUW) Koncepcja/Metody badań: Wykorzystano metodę pojedynczego studium przypadku, którą uznano za optymalną do celów tego badania. Zdefiniowano, a następnie przeanalizowano pięć głównych obszarów badania. Wyniki i wnioski: Dotychczasowe wykorzystanie w bibliotekach technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych uległo przekształceniom, w związku z pandemią COVID-19 i wiązało się głównie ze wzrostem intensywności ich wykorzystania. W badaniu dowiedziono pomyślnego przejścia biblioteki na funkcjonowanie online, które prawdopodobnie, do jakiegoś stopnia będzie obowiązywało także po ponownym otwarciu budynku biblioteki. Badanie dowiodło także, że dobrze zorganizowana biblioteka akademicka, która w przypadku wymuszonego zamknięcia może łatwo przejść na funkcjonowanie zdalne, jest niezbędna do zapewnienia wsparcia procesu badawczo-dydaktycznego uczelni. Oryginalność/Wartość poznawcza: Niniejszy artykuł stanowi wkład do dotychczasowego zbioru piśmiennictwa poświęconego zagadnieniom funkcjonowania bibliotek w czasie pandemii COVID-19. Jednakże w odróżnieniu do większości publikacji, skupia się głównie na systemach i usługach informacyjnych oraz zasobach elektronicznych, a nie na bibliotece rozumianej jako przestrzeń publiczna i książnica udostępniająca drukowane kolekcje.

Purpose/Thesis: The article considers the management strategies employed at Polish academic libraries during a crisis situation, using the lockdown imposed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as a case study. (The lockdown is defined here as the period between March 12th and June 2020). The study identifies the most significant obstacles to operating efficiently in the unstable VUCA environment. Approach/Methods: The author uses research methods of sociology, collecting data from the directors of Polish academic libraries by the means of an online survey, with the response rate approximating 30%. The survey included questions about the organization of information and library services during the lockdown, and about the management obstacles the libraries faced.Results and conclusions: The results suggest that both directors and staff of academic libraries did their best in the crisis situation. They adjusted the information and library service procedures, seeking to efficiently organize remote work, and manage the dispersed work environment. The most often mentioned management obstacles included the necessity for rapid adjustment, the impossibility of long-term planning, and the changing duties. However, the libraries implemented a number of solutions, which may serve them in the future if need be, such as rotational shifts, higher flexibility of organization, and task-oriented approach to professional duties. Practical implications: The study presents procedures to be applied in the case of another lockdown, identifies good practices, and relays the experiences of other academic libraries in order to improve information services at the reader's place of employment; it may inspire them to optimize information and library processes. Originality/Value: It is the first such study of the activity of Polish academic libraries during the lockdown. The results may contribute to discussions about the organizational flexibility of academic libraries and their capacity for adjustment, and well as about the future development or phaseout of certain areas of their activity.

Purpose/Thesis: The aim of this paper is to reflect and to start a discussion on changes in scholarly communication, both in the field of scientific research and university instruction, during an epidemiological crisis. Approach/Methods: Presented reflections on changes in scholarly communication are of theoretical nature. The text emerged from online discussions with second-year students taking the course on Scholarly Communication as a part of their degree in Information Space Architecture (Faculty of Journalism, Information and Book Studies, University of Warsaw), in March 2020. Results and conclusions: The epidemic threat of the coronavirus (COVID-19), which has disrupted our social life in recent weeks, affects the communication processes in science as well. The most obvious effect of the pandemic in the area under discussion will be the development of distance learning methods and technologies. This may also increase the scope of scientific papers available in the open access. Changes are inevitable, therefore we encourage a reflection on their direction so that we can prepare for the shift and actively participate in the designing of the future form of the scholarly communication. Originality/Value: This type of consideration is justified by the current state of affairs. We are now in the middle of a transformation that needs to be acknowledged & discussed to give it the desired direction as far as possible.

Purpose/Thesis: The paper aims to describe the types and structure of references to different sources as cited by the selected Polish Wikipedia articles from the category of people related to the Austrian Partition and all the categories below. Approach/Methods: The research data consisted of references from 50 randomly selected articles from Polish Wikipedia, including 1007 citations and 758 references. The references have been gathered, processed, and analyzed mainly employing R language. They have been categorized, and then the descriptive statistics for the chosen elements have been provided and analyzed. Results and conclusions: The study shows that the majority of sources used in the research sample were of primary nature. Consequently, it demonstrates that the analyzed articles about historical persons can be regarded more as a product of research than simple imitative work to a certain extent. Polish Wikipedians mainly utilized government directories and newspaper or magazine articles, often from digital libraries. Secondary sources, on the other hand, chiefly consisted of books, webpages, and book sections. The structure of references was diverse, and bibliographic descriptions sometimes lacked important elements. The findings confirm difficulties in analyzing sources in Wikipedia. Moreover, they support the need for researching different editions and subject areas of the largest online encyclopedia. Research limitations: Due to the exploratory character of research, which focuses on references from selected articles about historical persons from Poland, one should not readily extrapolate its results to other parts of Polish Wikipedia. The research sample only comprised citations and references, which were collected at one specific point of time. Additionally, the categorization of references has been done by a single researcher, and intercoder reliability has not been checked. Originality/Value: Most of the studies into sources used in Wikipedia articles have been limited to its English edition so far. Moreover, articles about historical persons in this encyclopedia have not been analyzed from the perspective of utilized sources, their types, and reference patterns. The paper broadens the understanding of sources usage in Wikipedia by focusing on the Polish edition of the encyclopedia.

Purpose/Thesis: The article presents the possibilities of using the interdisciplinary theory of genres, developed in the study of linguistics, literary studies, rhetoric, sociology, philosophy, psychology and other disciplines, in library and information science (LIS). The article argues the application of genre theory to LIS offers a new and interesting interdisciplinary perspective.Approach/Methods: A critical analysis of the literature on the subject introduces the basic premises of the interdisciplinary theory of text/information genres in its historical development in the world and in Poland. A similar method was used to present the most important directions genre theory opens to LIS.Results and conclusions: Before genre theory was first applied to LIS, it was developed in disciplines such as linguistics, literature, rhetoric, communication and media, discourse analysis, sociology, pedagogy and others and in many countries on all continents (mainly in the USA, Australia, Brazil and Scandinavian countries). The theory’s success is a result of its interdisciplinary development, beginning from linguistic and classical rhetorical genres approach and problems of categorizing texts to “de facto genres” and their function in everyday communication activities (social/rhetoric approach). Applied to LIS, it frames information objects as social constructs whose meaning is constructed in social discourse, driven by genre knowledge. The library and other information systems should be treated as a social communication activity in the recurrent situation of organizing and retrieving information. It means that the work of a librarian (or other information organizers) involves rhetorical activity of creating information objects, as does the work of other information creators, e.g. authors of scholarly publications. The functioning of information system, i.e. production and organization of textual information should be investigated using methods applied in other disciplines, especially humanities and social sciences, as it allows for a broader research perspective.Originality/Value: The article describes the possibilities of applying genre theory in LIS research, which still do not receive the attention they merit. A wider knowledge of the genre theory would make possible collaborative research involving scholars of other disciplines such as linguistics and sociology.

Purpose/Thesis: The article contains theoretical and conceptual reflection and analysis of how emotions and other affective phenomena are defined and understood in contemporary research on human information behavior. The article draws attention to the interdisciplinary nature of research into affective information activities. Approach/Methods: The reported research employs a qualitative approach, relying on critical literature review, and conceptual and thematic analysis. The analyzed material came from select publications from 2014–2020. Results and Conclusions: Information science studies the role of emotions in information behavior. However, the application of the affective paradigm remains very limited. The affective understanding of information activities should be constantly expanded on an interdisciplinary basis with reference to theories and methods of other disciplines, such as psychology. Originality/Value: The article studies the development of the theoretical affective phenomenon paradigm and presents the most important approaches psychology takes to emotions. By analyzing the latest trends in the study of affective information behaviors, the study joins the collaborative effort to develop an agenda providing a theoretical and practical basis for the development of interdisciplinary research within the affective paradigm.

Cel/Teza: Celem artykułu jest zwrócenie uwagi na znaczenie wiedzy z zakresu ochrony własności intelektualnej – obejmującej własność przemysłową i prawo autorskie – w kontekście nowych, dynamicznie rozwijających się technologii informacyjno-komunikacyjnych oraz gospodarki cyfrowej na prowadzonych w polskich uczelniach studiach uniwersyteckich kształcących tzw. profesjonalistów informacji – specjalistów zarządzania informacją, bibliotekoznawców, brokerów informacji czy specjalistów zarządzania dokumentacją.Koncepcja/Metody badań: Metoda analizy i krytyki piśmiennictwa została wykorzystana do omówienia zagadnienia ochrony własności intelektualnej. Na podstawie danych z systemu informacji o szkolnictwie wyższym POL-on oraz stron internetowych poszczególnych uniwersytetów wyróżniono kierunki studiów w wymienionym zakresie. Analizowano plany studiów i moduły kształcenia pod kątem treści z zakresu ochrony własności intelektualnej.Wyniki i wnioski: Przedmiotem badania były polskie standardy kształcenia pod kątem treści z zakresuochrony własności intelektualnej. Wynika z nich, że obejmują one w kategoriach wiedzy, umiejętności i kompetencji społecznych efekty uczenia się w odniesieniu do ochrony własności przemysłowej i prawa autorskiego. Stwierdzono, że na większości kierunków prowadzone jest nauczanie z zakresu ochrony własności intelektualnej, różnice występują w odniesieniu do nazwy przedmiotu (przeważa nazwa „ochrona własności intelektualnej”), jego statusu, zakresu kształcenia, formy czy liczby godzin. Na przykładzie kierunku zarządzanie informacją, realizowanego przez Instytut Studiów Informacyjnych (dawny Instytut Informacji Naukowej i Bibliotekoznawstwa) na Wydziale Zarządzania i Komunikacji Społecznej Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego, analizując plan studiów I i II stopnia oraz moduły kształcenia, przedstawiono założone efekty kształcenia w odniesieniu do ochrony własności intelektualnej, uzasadniając potrzeby realizacji przedmiotów w tym obszarze oraz wskazując na zakres wiedzy przekazywanej studentom zarządzania informacją.Oryginalność/Wartość poznawcza: Przedstawione zagadnienie nie było do tej pory przedmiotem szerszych rozważań.

Na przykładzie kierunku zarządzanie informacją, realizowanego przez Instytut Studiów Informacyjnych (dawny Instytut Informacji Naukowej i Bibliotekoznawstwa) na Wydziale Zarządzania i Komunikacji Społecznej Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego, analizując plan studiów I i II stopnia oraz moduły kształcenia, przedstawiono założone efekty kształcenia w odniesieniu do ochrony własności intelektualnej, uzasadniając potrzeby realizacji przedmiotów w tym obszarze oraz wskazując na zakres wiedzy przekazywanej studentom zarządzania informacją.Oryginalność/Wartość poznawcza: Przedstawione zagadnienie nie było do tej pory przedmiotem szerszych rozważań.","PeriodicalId":176717,"journal":{"name":"Zagadnienia Informacji Naukowej - Studia Informacyjne","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133829443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Purpose/Thesis: The article opens new research opportunities by going beyond the concept of the information user and contributing to the development of a research paradigm based on the idea of information agency. It proposes a theoretical framework for a new way of thinking about the subject of information processes.Approach/Methods: This conceptual article is based on theoretical considerations and synthetic, critical analyses of the concept of the information user alongside other ideas underlying the approach proposed here.Results and conclusions: The article establishes a theoretical framework for thinking about the information agent. The information agent is seen as a dynamic, heterogeneous, multifaced and inseparable system gaining agency in specific situations and losing it in others.Originality/Value: The article presents the original concept of an information agent together with initial suggestions regarding how to apply it to, and make it operable in, empirical research.
