Purpose

Reading habit plays a pivotal role in individuals' personal and academic growth, making it essential to encourage among campus users. University libraries serve as valuable platforms to promote reading by providing access to a diverse range of books and resources. Recommending books through personalized systems not only helps campus users discover new materials but also enhances their engagement and satisfaction with the library’s offerings, contributing to a holistic learning experience.

Design/methodology/approach

This study presents a web-based solution, the Web-Based Hybrid Intelligent Book Recommender System (W_HybridBook), as a solution that addresses challenges like cold start issues and limited scalability by factoring in user preferences and item similarities in generating book recommendations. The paper improves the traditional hybrid system using Genre-Oriented Profiles (GOPs) instead of original rating profiles of users when determining similarities between individuals. Consumption-based genre profiles (W_HybridBook-CBP) are created by assessing whether an item has received any ratings in the dataset, and vote-based genre profiles (W_HybridBook-VBP) are generated by considering the genre categories based on the magnitude of the user’s rating.

Findings

The comparative results indicated that users are quite satisfied with the recommendations generated by W_HybridBook-VBP profiling, with an average rating of 4.0633 and a precision value of 0.7988. W_HybridBook-VBP is also the fastest way with respect to the algorithm and recommendation run time.

Originality/value

The proposed W_HybridBook has been then enhanced by adopting two user profiling strategies to boost the similarity calculation process in the recommendation generation phase. This system provides ranking-based recommendations by mainly integrating well-known collaborative and content-based filtering strategies. A dataset has been collected by considering the preferences of both users and academics at Izmir Bakircay University, which is one of the universities with the highest number of books per student. More importantly, this dataset has been released and become publicly available for future research in the recommender system field.

目的 阅读习惯对个人的个人成长和学业发展起着举足轻重的作用,因此必须鼓励校园用户养成阅读习惯。大学图书馆是促进阅读的重要平台,可提供各种书籍和资源。通过个性化系统推荐图书不仅能帮助校园用户发现新资料,还能提高他们对图书馆提供的服务的参与度和满意度,从而促进全面的学习体验。本研究提出了一种基于网络的解决方案--基于网络的混合智能图书推荐系统(W_HybridBook),该解决方案通过在生成图书推荐时考虑用户偏好和项目相似性,解决了冷启动问题和有限的可扩展性等难题。本文改进了传统的混合系统,在确定个体之间的相似性时,使用面向流派的配置文件(GOPs)代替用户的原始评分配置文件。基于消费的流派特征(W_HybridBook-CBP)是通过评估一个项目在数据集中是否获得过任何评分来创建的,而基于投票的流派特征(W_HybridBook-VBP)则是通过考虑基于用户评分大小的流派类别来生成的。比较结果表明,用户对 W_HybridBook-VBP 特征生成的推荐相当满意,平均评分为 4.0633,精确度值为 0.7988。W_HybridBook-VBP 在算法和推荐运行时间方面也是最快的。该系统主要通过整合著名的协同过滤策略和基于内容的过滤策略来提供基于排名的推荐。考虑到伊兹密尔巴基尔凯大学用户和学者的偏好,我们收集了一个数据集,该大学是学生人均图书数量最多的大学之一。更重要的是,该数据集已经发布并公开,供未来推荐系统领域的研究使用。

Ikhlaq ur Rehman, Shabir Ahmad Ganaie

Purpose

The study examined the comprehensive assessment of the efficacy of Library and Information Science (LIS) CPD programmes in the particular setting of Indian academic libraries in Northern India. The study systematically assessed the programmes' impact on four levels: behaviour, reaction, learning, and results, using Donald Kirkpatrick’s widely recognised evaluation model.

Design/methodology/approach

The research employed a census sampling method and a questionnaire to gather information from 177 respondents employed in university libraries.

Findings

The findings demonstrated that professionals were satisfied with the CPD programmes, eager to learn more and apply their newly acquired knowledge and skills at their workplaces, and interested in applying learning to get results. Moreover, the significant factors that hindered the implementation of learning in the workplace were a lack of management support and poor IT infrastructure.

Originality/value

The paper’s uniqueness and significance come from carefully examining the effects of CPD programmes in LIS within the particular setting of university libraries in Northern India.

Purpose

The main purpose of this study is to explore the existing information and communication technologies (ICTs) scenario in public and private university libraries in Bangladesh. The aim of the study was to determine the use and extent of ICT implementation for collection development practices of the said institutions.

Design/methodology/approach

The study is based on a structured questionnaire for university library users. Students' opinions have been encapsulated, and the data findings were analyzed and presented in light of the responses.

Findings

For students who responded to the questionnaire, their ICT-based knowledge usage experience is not up to the mark. In general, it was found that students had limited knowledge about ICT-based resources and services. Besides this, the study also showed how to improve the entire condition and services of these libraries by adopting modern technology. This investigation reveals the situation they encountered in applying information technology and puts forward necessary recommendations that may help improve their services in the information storing and dissemination process.

Originality/value

This study focuses on the user perceptions of ICT-based library services in university libraries in Bangladesh. It will prompt further research on user perceptions of ICT-based library services in academic libraries globally.

On a wing and a prayer: professional ethics and the prison library 祈祷:职业道德与监狱图书馆
IF 1.3 Q2 INFORMATION SCIENCE & LIBRARY SCIENCE Pub Date : 2024-06-18 DOI: 10.1108/lm-04-2024-0043
Kerry Wilson

Purpose

In response to instrumental cultural policy agendas in the United Kingdom, the paper explores the practice of collaborative cultural work in the criminal justice system through the lens of professional ethics in prison libraries. It seeks to balance narratives on the value of arts and culture in cross-government policy agendas with a nuanced consideration of the realities of such work in non-conventional organisational settings.

Design/methodology/approach

“Instrumental Values: Professional ethics in collaborative cultural work” was a two-year empirical study (2017–2019), including ethnographic fieldwork in three case study sites representing prison library services in England. Following a “communities of practice” conceptual framework, research methods included participant observation of day-to-day cultural work and specific events; successive research interviews with library and prison service staff and volunteers; and interviews with key collaborating organisations from extended professional networks.

Findings

Data from three prison library case studies show consistent ethical implications relating to the extent of collaborative complexity in the field and its impact on participants’ emotional resilience; navigation of the prison regime by cultural workers; consequences for emotional labour and care in the field; and the re-negotiation of ethical boundaries and practices.

Originality/value

The research makes an original contribution to debates on the instrumental value of arts and culture via its intimate focus on prison libraries as microcosms of situated, truly integrated cultural work, both from a physical, organisational perspective and in their representation of a cross-policy function for arts and culture.

目的 针对英国的工具性文化政策议程,本文从监狱图书馆职业道德的角度出发,探讨了刑事司法系统中合作性文化工作的实践。本文试图在跨政府政策议程中有关文化艺术价值的叙述与对非常规组织环境中此类工作的现实情况的细致考量之间取得平衡:合作文化工作中的职业道德 "是一项为期两年(2017-2019 年)的实证研究,包括在代表英格兰监狱图书馆服务的三个案例研究地点进行人种学实地调查。根据 "实践社区 "概念框架,研究方法包括对日常文化工作和特定活动的参与观察;对图书馆和监狱服务人员及志愿者的连续研究访谈;以及对扩展专业网络中的主要合作组织的访谈。研究结果来自三个监狱图书馆案例研究的数据显示了与以下方面相关的一致伦理意义:实地合作的复杂程度及其对参与者情感复原力的影响;文化工作者对监狱制度的引导;实地情感劳动和关怀的后果;以及伦理边界和实践的重新谈判。原创性/价值这项研究通过对监狱图书馆的密切关注,从物质和组织的角度,以及从其对艺术和文化的跨政策功能的体现来看,将其作为情景化、真正综合性文化工作的缩影,为有关艺术和文化的工具价值的讨论做出了原创性贡献。

Purpose

Librarians need to effectively communicate the need for space, resources and personnel, even in service or technical positions, yet librarians often lack formal leadership or strategy training on how to be most effective in advocating for the library. This paper presents the Five Finger Model as a communication strategy for training librarians on advocacy.

Design/methodology/approach

In order to show how the Five Finger Model can be helpful, we have included two case examples from our own work contexts, which are in academic libraries. We also present guidance on how to train library staff on the model.

Findings

In one example, the model was used for advocating for the library as part of the campus-level strategic planning process. In another example, the model was used to effectively market research consultations. These examples highlight how the Five Finger Model can help the communicator stay on topic and use personal stories to have a strong advocacy effect.

Originality/value

This paper is unique in that it shows how staff training on advocacy can be impactful and useful. We believe that putting tools like the Five Finger Model into the hands of staff not only improves their effectiveness but also empowers them to see their role as true advocates for the library.

目的图书馆员需要有效地传达对空间、资源和人员的需求,即使是在服务或技术岗位上,但图书馆员往往缺乏正规的领导力或策略培训,不知道如何最有效地为图书馆进行宣传。本文介绍了 "五指模型",作为培训图书馆员宣传工作的一种沟通策略。在其中一个案例中,五指模式被用于为图书馆进行宣传,作为校园战略规划过程的一部分。在另一个例子中,该模式被用于有效地营销研究咨询。这些例子强调了五指模型如何帮助传播者紧扣主题,并利用个人故事产生强大的宣传效果。我们相信,将 "五指模型 "等工具交到员工手中,不仅能提高他们的工作效率,还能增强他们的能力,让他们看到自己作为图书馆真正宣传者的作用。
