The centenary of IFLA is approaching. IFLA’s Library History Special Interest Group has embarked on various projects to prepare for the event, including the compilation of an edited volume of scholarly chapters on IFLA’s history. This article originated as a background paper for members of the Library History Special Interest Group and others who may be contemplating conducting research on IFLA with a view to the centenary in 2027. An overview is given of published sources for the historiography of IFLA. These include publications about IFLA published by IFLA and its structures, and by other parties. IFLA’s own publications include guidelines and standards; policy statements; reports on the work of its professional units and strategic advisory committees; the IFLA Publications Series; and report series such as the IFLA World Reports and Trend Reports. Much of this material is published on IFLA’s websites, both current and archived. It provides valuable evidence of IFLA’s activities. In this article, the emphasis is on material about IFLA published by IFLA itself and by other parties. The literature about IFLA includes historical accounts published as articles, books, book chapters and theses. Many contain useful bibliographies. With a view to identifying topics and themes for the historiography of IFLA, the subject matter of some 294 items about IFLA published from 2000 to 2022 inclusive is analysed. Brief attention is paid to possible themes emerging from the literature that may be useful in developing research on IFLA.
国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会(IFLA)百年庆典即将来临。国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会(IFLA)图书馆史特别兴趣小组已着手开展各种项目,为这一盛事做准备,其中包括编辑一本有关国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会(IFLA)历史的学术章节。本文是为图书馆史特别兴趣小组成员和其他可能考虑开展国际图联研究的人员准备的背景文件,以迎接 2027 年的百年纪念。本文概述了已出版的国际图联史料来源。这些资料包括国际图联及其机构和其他方面出版的有关国际图联的出版物。国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会(IFLA)自己的出版物包括指导方针和标准; 政策声明;其专业部门和战略咨询委员会的工作报告;《国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会 出版物系列》;以及《国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会世界报告》和《趋势报告》等系列报 告。这些资料大部分发布在国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会的网站上,既有最新的,也有存档的。它为国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会的活动提供了宝贵的证据。本文的重点是国际图联自己和其他方面出版的有关国际图联的资料。有关国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会的文献包括以文章、书籍、书籍章节和论文形式出版的历史记述。许多文献都包含有用的参考书目。为了确定国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会历史学的主题和专题,我们对 2000 年至 2022 年(含 2022 年)出版的约 294 篇有关国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会的文章进行了分析。对文献中可能出现的主题给予了简要关注,这些主题可能有助于开展有关国际图联的研究。

This research explored the current state of the continuing professional development of Thai academic librarians and the roles of continuing professional development providers, employing a mixed-methods approach. An online questionnaire was completed by 243 Thai academic librarians and in-depth interviews were conducted with 20 library directors and deputy directors. The quantitative data was analysed using descriptive analysis, while the qualitative data was examined through thematic analysis. The research found that academic librarians recognized the importance of participating in continuing professional development activities and exhibited a preference for online continuing professional development, with ‘in-house’ providers and academic library networks assuming significant roles. The study recommends focusing on information technology skills and English proficiency. Concise and dynamic guidance is offered for academic libraries and continuing professional development providers to reshape continuing professional development activities to post-pandemic dynamics, based on academic librarians’ needs, and align their offerings with contemporary academic library challenges and trends, better suiting Thailand’s evolving educational context.

Memory and amnesia in the archival practices of national library and information associations 国家图书馆和信息协会档案实践中的记忆与健忘症
Pub Date : 2024-04-17 DOI: 10.1177/03400352241236733

National library and information associations are in essence meta-memory organizations. Yet the efforts of associations to secure their own history and protect their corporate memory for the future, especially in terms of safeguarding their internal archives, appear patchy. The ideas of the French historian Pierre Nora are examined, particularly his concept of lieux de mémoire (“sites of memory”), alongside associated concepts of invented tradition and heritage, which can be seen to intersect with the memorializing proclivities of national associations. Evidence is presented from a modest 2008 study of the archival policies of national library and information associations worldwide, reported by IFLA’s Library History Section. It is important to revisit this study because little publicity was given to it at the time; also, it provides a context for a recent case study undertaken by the author of the archival practices of the UK’s Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals.
国家图书馆和信息协会本质上是元记忆组织。然而,这些协会在保护自身历史和未来企业记忆方面所做的努力,尤其是在保护内部档案方面所做的努力,似乎并不完善。本文研究了法国历史学家皮埃尔-诺拉(Pierre Nora)的思想,特别是他的 "记忆之所"(lieux de mémoire)概念,以及相关的发明传统和遗产概念,可以看出这些概念与国家协会的纪念倾向有交集。国际图书馆员协会和图书馆联合会(IFLA)图书馆历史部 2008 年对世界各国图书馆和 信息协会的档案政策进行了一项规模不大的研究。重温这项研究非常重要,因为当时对它的宣传很少;同时,它也为作者最近对英国图书馆与信息专业人员特许协会的档案实践进行的案例研究提供了背景。

This study investigates the impact of multimedia within academic information literacy in the higher education sector. It considers the recent information and communications technology boom, its effect on academic information literacy preferences, and how it has affected pedagogy. Finally, it discusses the current and future trends of the influence of multimedia on pedagogical instruction. A survey of higher education students in three countries – the UK, Kenya and India – was undertaken to understand the shift towards multimedia in libraries. The aim was to determine if behavioural attributes (academic or artistic, verbalisers or visualisers) and the university’s location impacted multimedia learning. The results of the study do not support the aptitude–treatment interaction theory. In the current context, different learners (academic or artistic) need different kinds of instruction to optimise their learning. However, the survey found that students’ nature did not influence their choice of method of instruction (verbal or video). It also revealed that the university’s location facilitated or hampered students’ learning capabilities.
本研究调查了多媒体对高等教育学术信息扫盲的影响。研究考虑了近期信息和通信技术的蓬勃发展、它对学术信息扫盲偏好的影响以及它对教学法的影响。最后,它讨论了多媒体对教学法影响的当前和未来趋势。对英国、肯尼亚和印度三个国家的高等教育学生进行了调查,以了解图书馆向多媒体的转变。目的是确定行为属性(学术或艺术、语言或视觉)和大学所在地是否会影响多媒体学习。研究结果并不支持能力-待遇互动理论。在当前情况下,不同的学习者(学术型或艺术型)需要不同的教学来优化他们的学习。然而,调查发现,学生的天性并不影响他们对教学方法(口头或视频)的选择。调查还显示,大学的地理位置对学生的学习能力有促进或阻碍作用。

This study measured the individual differences in the service quality of Bangladeshi university libraries by type of university, user and gender. A modified SERVQUAL (service quality) model was adopted for the academic library environment, which included 30 items under five dimensions with a 7-point Likert scale. The survey was conducted among 61 teachers, 50 researchers and 455 students from two public, two international and two private universities in Bangladesh. The individual differences in library service quality were calculated through an analysis of variance and independent sample t-test for the university, user and gender categories. The overall service quality was significantly different ( p < .001) among the users of the public ( M = 4.02), private ( M = 5.08) and international ( M = 5.10) university libraries, as well as between male ( M = 4.48) and female ( M = 5.01) users. Several statistical methods supported the sampling adequacy, reliability and validity of the adapted model, which could be used as a basis for further assessments of library service quality by different demographic groups, both locally and globally.
本研究按大学类型、用户和性别测量了孟加拉国大学图书馆服务质量的个体差异。在学术图书馆环境中采用了修改后的 SERVQUAL(服务质量)模型,该模型包括五个维度的 30 个项目,采用李克特 7 点量表。调查对象包括孟加拉国两所公立大学、两所国际大学和两所私立大学的 61 名教师、50 名研究人员和 455 名学生。通过方差分析和独立样本 t 检验,计算了大学、用户和性别类别在图书馆服务质量方面的个体差异。公立大学图书馆用户(M = 4.02)、私立大学图书馆用户(M = 5.08)和国际大学图书馆用户(M = 5.10)之间,以及男性用户(M = 4.48)和女性用户(M = 5.01)之间的总体服务质量存在明显差异(p < .001)。几种统计方法证明了改编模型的取样充分性、可靠性和有效性,该模型可作为本地和全球不同人口群体进一步评估图书馆服务质量的基础。

This is a case study chronicling the rise and fall of the newspaper library that serviced the Vancouver Sun and Vancouver Province daily newspapers in Canada during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. This article examines a specific case of the decline of a major metropolitan newspaper company, the subsequent closure of the library that served two newsrooms, and the dissolution of its collections. A narrative inquiry approach to oral history was used to gather stories from the individuals involved in the development of the newspaper library. Reflections on the value and persistence of the collections developed by newspaper libraries are offered.
这是一个案例研究,记录了 20 世纪末和 21 世纪初为加拿大《温哥华太阳报》和《温哥华省报》日报服务的报纸图书馆的兴衰。本文探讨了一家大型都市报公司衰落、为两家报社服务的图书馆随之关闭以及馆藏解散的具体案例。文章采用口述历史的叙事调查方法,从参与报纸图书馆发展的个人那里收集故事。本文对报业图书馆开发的藏书的价值和持续性进行了思考。

The present study aims to analyse the research domains, gender gap, and labour market perspectives of doctoral research in LIS in India. Sodhganga, a digital repository of Indian thesis and dissertations, was used for extracting doctoral thesis information and Jarvelin & Vakkari classification system was used for categorising the doctoral research topics. A total of 808 doctoral dissertations awarded between 2016 and 2020 were analysed using IBM SPSS and Tableau. The study's findings revealed that the growth of doctoral research in LIS is on rising trends with 150 PhD awarded in LIS every year. Information seeking (33.8%), library and information service activities (30.7%), and scientific & professional communication (16.5%) were found to be the preferred research themes among doctoral students during the study period. Furthermore, it is revealed that there is a gender gap in the number of PhDs conferred, with more men than women receiving these degrees. LIS professionals with a doctorate have the highest employment rate, at 96.2%, and most are in government jobs. Besides, only 40 percent of doctoral candidates reported receiving an incentive after the doctoral degree.

Reflections on preserving association records 关于保存协会记录的思考
Pub Date : 2024-03-06 DOI: 10.1177/03400352241230668

This article provides an overview of the recorded history of information associations, focusing especially on the Association for Information Science and Technology. Discussions with the archivists of three other professional associations about their beginnings, services, and funding provide the framework. While there are firm legal guidelines for keeping association records, there are no firm guidelines that specifically describe how to archive association records for historical purposes. Association records—including correspondence, votes, and addresses that are not held in formal publications—can reveal how and when decisions were made. Making these records available in archives is invaluable to historians. The authors’ views and opinions are based on what they have learned during the last several years of the active engagement of the Association for Information Science and Technology’s History Committee (HC) and curator, and the hope is that this article will be useful for other associations as they curate their own archives.
本文概述了信息协会的历史记录,尤其侧重于信息科学与技术协会。通过与其他三个专业协会的档案员讨论他们的起源、服务和资金情况,提供了一个框架。虽然保存协会记录有明确的法律准则,但没有明确的准则具体说明如何为历史目的归档协会记录。协会记录--包括未在正式出版物中保存的通信、投票和地址--可以揭示决策的方式和时间。将这些记录存档对历史学家来说非常宝贵。作者的观点和意见是基于过去几年中他们在信息科学与技术协会历史委员会(HC)和馆长的积极参与下所学到的,希望这篇文章能对其他协会在整理自己的档案时有所帮助。

The authors’ views and opinions are based on what they have learned during the last several years of the active engagement of the Association for Information Science and Technology’s History Committee (HC) and curator, and the hope is that this article will be useful for other associations as they curate their own archives.","PeriodicalId":513302,"journal":{"name":"IFLA Journal","volume":"136 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140078580","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}

This article investigates the knowledge of research data management and services among library professionals in selected East African libraries. A survey research design was employed, and data was collected using a structured questionnaire from 180 respondents representing four East African countries: Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The findings reveal that only 31.1% of the selected East African librarians agreed that their institutional libraries provided research data management services. The standard research data management services offered by their libraries included data publishing, sharing and reuse, while collaboration with academic programmes was identified as an essential approach for research data management skill development. The study highlights the need for librarians to acquire legal, policy and advisory skills and knowledge of institutional and extra-institutional resources and the research life cycle for effective research data management service delivery.
本文调查了东非部分图书馆专业人员对研究数据管理和服务的了解情况。文章采用了调查研究设计,并通过结构化问卷向代表四个东非国家的 180 名受访者收集了数据:这些国家分别是马拉维、莫桑比克、赞比亚和津巴布韦。调查结果显示,只有 31.1%的选定东非图书馆员同意其所在机构的图书馆提供研究数据管理服务。他们的图书馆提供的标准研究数据管理服务包括数据发布、共享和再利用,而与学术计划的合作被认为是研究数据管理技能发展的重要方法。研究强调,图书馆员需要掌握法律、政策和咨询技能,以及机构和机构外资源和研究生命周期方面的知识,以便有效提供研究数据管理服务。
