摘要

目的本研究旨在识别法律专业人员在法律信息资源意识和所面临问题上的性别差异和相似性。此外,该研究确定了在为印度环境开发在线法律信息系统(OLIS)的要求方面基于性别的差异。设计/方法/方法本研究在德里的八家法律图书馆采用结构化问卷进行。数据通过问卷收集,问卷共有27个问题,包括二分法(是/否)、选择题、评分和意见问题。在德里八所机构的750名受访者中使用结构化问卷进行了需求评估调查。总共收到了397份填写好的问卷。受访者中男性246人,女性151人。资讯系统的设计和发展经历了五个阶段,即前期准备、设计和规划阶段、资讯系统的发展(包括准备软件、数据结构、元数据、搜索表格、测试和实施阶段以及维护)。研究发现,100%的女性受访者都知道在线法律信息资源。最多28.4%的女性受访者认为法律电子资源“非常好”,而只有19.9%的男性受访者认为它们“非常好”。女性受访者对开放获取资源的了解程度较低。此外,在246名男性受访者中,213人(86.6%)对开放获取资源的认识回答“是”,33人(13.4%)回答“否”。相比之下,116名(76.8%)女性受访者表示她们知道开放获取资源;35个(23.2%)不知道开放获取资源。58名(23.6%)男性受访者非常不满意,60名(24.4%)完全不满意。然而,相比之下,29名(19.2%)女性受访者非常不满意,24名(15.9%)完全不满意使用开放获取资源。这项研究只涵盖了印度德里的八所大学。全国其他地区的高等法院和法律大学不包括在内。此外,OLIS还包含一个样本集合。本研究探讨了女性和男性法律专业人士所面临的禁忌。为配合女性法律专业人员、研究学者和教员的需要,制订了适当的法律信息系统。预期这项研究将解决女性法律专业人员在获取所需的司法和立法资料方面所面临的问题。原创性/价值信息系统(www.olisindia.in)是根据对印度男女法律专业人员进行的需求评估调查编制的。到目前为止,还没有进行过研究来比较印度男性和女性法律专业人员对发展OLIS的观点。

Gender perception in the development of online legal information system for the Indian environment
Purpose The study aims to identify gender differences and similarities in the awareness of legal information resources and problems faced by legal professionals. Further, the study identifies the differences on the basis of gender, regarding the requirements in developing an online legal information system (OLIS) for the Indian environment. Design/methodology/approach The study was carried out in eight law libraries in Delhi using a structured questionnaire. Data were collected through the questionnaire having 27 questions including dichotomous (Yes/No), multiple-choice questions, rating and opinion questions. A need assessment survey was conducted using the structured questionnaire circulated among 750 respondents of eight institutions in Delhi. In total, 397 filled in questionnaires were received back. A total of 246 of the respondents were males and 151 females. The design and development of an OLIS went through five phases, i.e. preliminary preparation, designing and planning phase, development of OLIS covering preparation of software, data structures, metadata, search form, testing and implementation phase and maintenance. Findings The study found that 100 per cent of the female respondents were aware of online legal information resources. Maximum 28.4 per cent female respondents rated legal e-resources “very good”, whereas only 19.9 per cent male ranked them “very good”. Female respondents were found less aware about open access resources. In addition, of 246 male respondents, 213 (86.6 per cent) responded “Yes” about awareness of open access resources and 33 (13.4 per cent) marked “No”. In comparison, 116 (76.8 per cent) female respondents revealed they are aware of open access resources; 35 (23.2 per cent) were not aware of open access resources. Fifty-eight (23.6 per cent) male respondents were very dissatisfied, and 60 (24.4 per cent) completely dissatisfied. However, in contrast, 29 (19.2 per cent) female respondents were very dissatisfied and 24 (15.9 per cent) completely dissatisfied in using open access resources. Research limitations/implications The study covers only eight institutions in Delhi, India. High courts and law universities in other parts of the country are not covered. In addition, OLIS contains a sample collection. Practical implications The study explores the inhibitions faced by female and male legal professionals. A suitable legal information system is developed to match the requirements of female legal professionals, research scholars and faculty members. The study is expected to address problems faced by female legal professionals in accessing the desired judicial and legislative information. Originality/value OLIS (www.olisindia.in) has been developed on the basis of a need assessment survey conducted on male and female legal professionals in India. No study has been conducted so far to compare the viewpoints of male and female legal professionals in India for developing an OLIS.
