Abstract For data information scientists, librarians and academics alike, it is a worrisome sign when information or a file opaquely disappears from the body of scientific literature, even more so when it carries a digital object identifier (DOI). This is because the DOI typically offers a published paper a form of digital permanence. Preprints are being increasingly fused into the publication stream, serving as a prelude to submission to a peer-reviewed journal. One of the main preprint servers is Elsevier’s SSRN. This paper, a rare case study, describes three preprints by the same authors related to peer review that were withdrawn (i.e., retracted). Apart from a short notice with identical text (“This paper has been removed from SSRN at the request of the author, SSRN, or the rights holder”), no date of the withdrawals and no explanation were publicly provided. Following queries to the authors and SSRN, the three preprints were reinstated around February 2023. Finally, the original title of two of the preprints was manipulated in the reinstated preprints. This historical case study not only highlights the risks of opaque preprint withdrawals, but also the ease with which information on preprint servers (in this case SSRN) can be modified and/or manipulated.

Abstract Libraries’ roles and contributions in promoting and raising awareness of culture and cultural heritage to support the sustainability of cultural life can be strengthened by utilizing social media platforms, including Instagram. However, there is a gap in studies and research relating to how academic libraries reflect their cultural functions through social media, i.e., Instagram. This paper provides a content analysis of academic libraries’ Instagram accounts at three academic libraries located in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. These libraries represent their universities’ concerns with promoting sustainable development goals, specifically Sustainable Development Goal 11 (make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable). This study analyzed and categorized the Instagram posts of academic libraries related to culture and cultural heritage to answer the following research question: how do academic libraries reflect their cultural functions through social media, i.e., Instagram? The results show that the academic libraries studied here considered reflecting their cultural functions through social media by informing users about various cultural events, collections, facts, and news on Instagram.

Abstract The global outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has forced governments around the world to launch various digital information campaigns in an attempt to boost public awareness about the virus and increase public information on effective measures to prevent its diffusion in local communities. Different public relations and data preservation, data retention, and data distribution strategies have been applied by healthcare policymakers to initiate, implement, and promote a wide range of public information campaigns, unique open data-driven platforms, and related digital solutions and tools to achieve the goal. Likewise, they were driven by different motivations and priorities as well as demands and political signals that they received from both top government leadership and civil society. In this regard, it is interesting to analyze how these different public relations and data management strategies were manifested in real administrative and technological practices, what priorities policymakers put in promoting such digital platforms, what communication and data management tools they used, and how effective they were in raising public awareness about the pandemic via such digital information platforms and related data-driven projects, startups, and initiatives.

Abstract For implementation of effective and efficient digital preservation programs, librarians and other professionals in the memory institutions need to have sufficient levels of awareness of digital preservation key concepts, strategies, tools, and standards/best practices. This survey aimed to investigate the awareness of librarians in Pakistani universities about these components. The population of the study included the librarians working in the central libraries of public sector universities and degree awarding institutions (DAIs) of Pakistan established before 2010. A questionnaire was developed after reviewing the relevant literature and was thereafter pilot tested in selected libraries. After successful completion of this phase, data was collected from the target population. A total of 178 responses were received from 63 out of 70 universities and DAIs. Overall, respondents showed a good level of awareness of different components of digital preservation.

Abstract The archival bond is the embodiment of the relationships shared amongst records generated in the course of the same activity, by the same creator. It has been one of the key governing principles of the archival profession since its inception. At the heart of this concept is the notion that records only acquire meaning and identity in the context of the aggregation they originally belong to. This interpretation has been guided by an analog worldview of archives in which creators, activities, and fonds are easily delimited constructs. With the digitalization of recordkeeping, these boundaries are meshed in favor of more fluid processes that prioritize the flow and recombination of information across several systems and classification schemes. This article attempts to revisit the concept of archival bond under the light of the current information paradigm with the goals of examining its fundamental notions, discussing its application and limitations. The methodology is qualitative and relies on documentary research. A literature review on the archival bond is conducted through the consultation of Web of Science and Scopus databases. As an expansion of the archival bond, a novel concept of informational bond is suggested as an attempt to more accurately capture the context of digital information and to reinforce the trustworthiness of archival representations.
摘要档案纽带是同一创作者在同一活动过程中所产生的记录之间共享关系的体现。自档案行业成立以来，它一直是其关键的管理原则之一。这个概念的核心是这样一种观念，即记录只有在它们最初所属的聚合环境中才能获得意义和身份。这种解释受到档案的类似世界观的指导，在这种世界观中，创作者、活动和类型很容易被划分。随着记录保存的数字化，这些边界被网格化，有利于更流畅的流程，优先考虑跨多个系统和分类方案的信息流动和重组。本文试图在当前信息范式的背景下重新审视档案契约的概念，考察其基本概念，探讨其适用范围和局限性。方法是定性的，并依赖于文献研究。通过查阅Web of Science和Scopus数据库，对档案关系进行文献综述。作为档案纽带的扩展，本文提出了信息纽带的新概念，试图更准确地捕捉数字信息的背景，并加强档案表征的可信度。

Abstract The relevance of the subject is conditioned by the rapid technical development and active digitalisation of the creative space. Video mapping technologies have become one of the manifestations of art modernisation, a kind of change in the form of the demonstration of visual images. The purpose of the study is to determine ways to involve video mapping technologies in the progressive evolution of the artistic process into new forms of spatial augmented reality. Identifying the potential capabilities of video mapping will allow the expansion of the range of creative expression tools at the level of advanced technical capabilities. Among the scientific methods for this study, some general scientific methods were used: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, modelling, abstraction, reductionism and methods of comparison and analogy. The main result of the study is a statement of a radical change in the approach to art in the modern world, based on the visualisation of subjects and images using new expressive means. Thus, augmented reality as an entertaining element of artistic performance is the embodiment of the iconic characteristics of the postmodern era, where the role of a person in the creative process remains key, but the means of one’s self-expression have become different. During the study, conclusions were drawn about the emergence of art to a new level, where the empathic perception of reality is complicated by modern opportunities in the context of technological advances, which, in turn, sets new standards and requirements for the results of the creative process.

Abstract This paper examines a preservation of intangible socio-cultural values of cultural object through the process of digitization, a participatory method, and an on-site preservation method. This research uses digital museum Museum Benda as the case study, where the objects are archived digitally. The objects represented socio-cultural values of a certain community of users and makers, including the social innovations that are found in their everyday life. In this case, the participatory approach becomes one of the methods to study the objects. In addition, on-site preservation through digitization is also one of the means to be able to preserve the artifact in its original site, while simultaneously storing and publishing the digital information. Museum Benda does not only allow the re-data of cultural objects digitally but also plays a role in preserving objects through an on-site approach by reviving community activities, building identity, and maintaining human and natural resources.
