The examination of core values attempted in this book is to assist librarians, individually and collectively, to focus on the attributes and purposes of libraries that make them unique and valuable. Gorman argues that libraries must continue to acquire and give access to, arrange, make accessible, and preserve the human record in all its manifestations and formats, and provide assistance and instruction in its use.

The 2014 RDA Print Revision contains:

.

• A full accumulation of RDA—the revision contains a full set of all current RDA instructions. It replaces the previous version of RDA Print rather than being an update packet to that version. 2014 1052pp | £110 Numerous changes to the text of RDA have been Paperback: made since the publication of the 2013 Revision. 9781783300426 Cataloguing practice described by RDA has not altered dramatically due to these changes, but over 70 percent of the pages in RDA Print was impacted by the changes, making an RDA Print update packet impracticable. • The most current RDA—the revision contains all changes to RDA up to and including the 2014 RDA Update approved by the JSC. There are two types of changes to RDA that routinely take place—Fast Track changes and RDA Updates. The JSC periodically issues “Fast Track” changes to RDA to fix errors and to clarify meaning. These changes do not typically change cataloguing practice as described by RDA. An RDA Update is issued annually. In an Update process the JSC considers proposals to enhance and improve RDA as a cataloguing standard. An update can and often does change the cataloguing process described in RDA. The 2014 Revision includes all Fast Track changes and RDA Updates since the 2013 publication of RDA and through August 2014. • New binding—the revision differs from past print versions of RDA in that it is perfect bound volume rather than a loose-leaf packet requiring a binder. Fast Track and Update changes to RDA have proven to be very impactful in recent years, making the loose-leaf packet with update packets impractical. For the immediate future Print RDA will be offered as a perfect bound volume. •

Foundations, practice, prospects

Mark Hedges, King's College, UK

Karen Calhoun, University of Pittsburgh, USA

2014 224pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781856048200

“Because the book is packed with so many topics, it allows the reader to learn about areas that are often glossed over in the daily running of a library; this is partly because they occur seamlessly. This book allows readers to take away sections of information which can then be used to better integrate and make more interoperable the digital libraries they manage. This really is a must read for those working in the digital library environment and for those who wish to explore digital library concepts further.” - Online Information Review

Exploring Digital Libraries is a highly readable, thought-provoking authorative and in-depth treatment of the digital library arena that provides an up-to-date overview of the progress, nature and future impact of digital libraries, from their collections and technologycentred foundations over two decades ago to their emergent, community-centred engagement with the social web. This essential textbook:

• Brings students and working librarians up to date on the progress, nature and impact of digital libraries, bridging the gap since the publication of the best-known digital library texts • Frames digital library research and practice in the context of the social web and makes the case for moving beyond collections to a new emphasis on libraries’ value to their communities • Introduces several new frameworks and novel syntheses that elucidate digital library themes, suggest strategic directions, and break new ground in the digital library literature. • Calls a good deal of attention to digital library research, but is written from the perspective of strategy and in-depth experience • Provides a global perspective and integrates material from many sources in one place - the chapters on open repositories and hybrid libraries draw together past, present and prospective work in a way that is unique in the literature.

Contents: 1. Emergence and definitions of digital libraries 2. Outcomes of digital libraries’ first decade 3. Key themes and challenges in digital libraries 4. Digital library collections: repositories 5. Hybrid libraries 6. Social roles of digital libraries 7. Digital libraries and their communities 8. The prospects of open access repositories 9. Digital libraries and the social web: Scholarship 10. Digital libraries and the social web: collections and platforms.

Readership: Exploring Digital Libraries suits the needs of a range of readers, from working librarians and library leaders to LIS students and educators, or anyone who wants a highly readable and thought-provoking overview of the field and its importance to the future of libraries.

December 2015 192pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781783300600

“Copyright is an area of growing concern to educational institutions which provide online access to materials. The complexity of the area has sometimes discouraged educators from engaging with it, but the practical suggestions and relevant case studies included in this title, as well as the provision of further readings makes this an excellent reference guide, and one which educators will find interesting as well as easy to understand.” - Australian Academic and Research Libraries

“This book is of great value to any librarian seeking to find ways to integrate literacy into a classroom. It will also be useful to any instructional designer wanting to integrate the ever-growing number of literacies into the development sessions offered to faculty.” - ARBA

This new book presents a comprehensive structure for information literacy theory that will help your students grasp an understanding of the critical thinking and reflection required to engage in technology spaces as savvy producers, collaborators, and sharers.

Today’s learners communicate, create, and share information using a range of information technologies such as social media, blogs, microblogs, wikis, mobile devices and apps, virtual worlds, and MOOCs.

In their new book, respected information literacy experts Mackey and Jacobson present a comprehensive structure for information literacy theory that builds on decades of practice while recognizing the knowledge required for an expansive and interactive information environment. The concept of metaliteracy expands the scope of traditional information skills (determine, access, locate, understand, produce, and use information) to include the collaborative production and sharing of information in participatory digital environments (collaborate, produce, and share) prevalent in today’s world.

Combining theory and case studies, the authors: show why media literacy, visual literacy, digital literacy, and a host of other specific literacies are critical for informed citizens in the 21st century; offer a framework for engaging in today’s information environments as active, self-reflective, and critical contributors to these collaborative spaces; and connect metaliteracy to such topics as metadata, the semantic web, metacognition, open education, distance learning, and digital storytelling. Contents: : Foreword – Sheila Webber 1. Developing a metaliteracy framework to promote metacognitive learning 2. Metaliteracy in the open age of social media 3. Metaliteracy as an integrated model of related literacies 4. Global trends in emerging literacies 5. Survey of the field: from theoretical frameworks to praxis 6. The evolution of a dedicated information literacy course toward mtaliteracy 7. Exploring digital storytelling from a metaliteracy perspective.

2013 224pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781856048385

“Devine and Egger-Sider make a convincing case in arguing that educators and librarians need to hammer home the importance of using a toolbox of search techniques rather than simply relying on one or two that only skim the web’s surface.” - Times Higher Education

This highly practical guide focuses on strategies and teaching tools for getting more out of the ‘deep’ or ‘invisible’ web, enabling students and users to tap into the wealth of material that isn’t to be found on Google or other mainstream search engines.

Contents: PART I: WHAT IS THE INVISIBLE WEB NOW? 1. The invisible web today 2. Studies of Information-seeking behaviour PART II: HOW WILL THE INVISIBLE WEB MAKE STUDENTS BETTER RESEARCHERS? 3. Teaching the invisible web: a survey of theory and practice 4. How to make students better researchers: the invisible web in teaching 5. Teaching resources PART III: TOOLS FOR MINING THE INVISIBLE WEB AND A LOOK AT ITS FUTURE 6. Looking inside the invisible web: a sampler 7. Future of the invisible web and its implications for teaching. Readership: Librarians, teachers and LIS lecturers will find ample support, research and resources to take students beyond the limitations of traditional web searching. Students and researchers will find new tools and techniques to unlock the power of the invisible web and go even further beyond Google.

The structure of the book also facilitates both detailed reading and quick reference...this book is an essential purchase for anyone involved in supporting learning and information skills.” - Libfocus

Based on groundbreaking research, undertaken by the authors as part of the prestigious Arcadia Programme at Cambridge University, this book presents a new and dynamic information literacy curriculum developed for the 21st century information professional. The authors adopt a broad definition of information literacy that encompasses social as well as academic environments and situates IL as a fundamental attribute of the discerning scholar and the informed citizen. It seeks to address in a modular, flexible and holistic way the developing information needs of students entering higher education over the next five years.

The book is organized around the ten ‘strands’ of the new curriculum, which cover the whole landscape of information literacy development required to succeed as an undergraduate in higher education. Interweaving the authors' research and the reflections of internationally recognized experts from the library, education and information literacy sectors, including Moira Bent, Andy Priestner, Sarah Pavey, Geoff Walton and Elizabeth Tilley, it illustrates how and why this new curriculum will work in practice.

“This book is a must if one is a student or researcher new to information science and, in particular, to information retrieval (IR) interaction and multimedia research.” - Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology

Introduction to Modern Information Retrieval G. G. Chowdhury

This new book provides an accessible introduction to the following: • What is an ontology? Defining the concept and why it is increasingly important to the information professional. • Ontologies and the semantic web • Existing ontologies, such as SKOS, OWL, FOAF, schema.org, and the DBpedia Ontology • Adopting and building ontologies, showing how to avoid repetition of work and how to build a simple ontology with Protégé • Interrogating semantic web ontologies • The future of ontologies and the role of the information professional in their development and use.

“...an invaluable starting point for undergraduate and graduate information science students looking for ideas for essay and research topics, and also as an illustration of how to write good literature reviews. There must be around 500 or more papers cited in total, and anyone in the IR community and many in enterprise search would benefit from the insights provided by the authors. Definitely a fivestar rating.” - Ariadne

Information 2.0

New models of information production, distribution and consumption

Martin De Saulles, University of Brighton, UK

March 2015 192pp| £49.95 Paperback: 9781783300099

This textbook rovides an overview of the digital information landscape and explains the implications of the technological changes for the information industry, from publishers and broadcasters to the information professionals who manage information in all its forms.

This fully-updated second edition includes examples of organizations and individuals who are seizing on the opportunities thrown up by this once-in-a-generation technological shift providing a cutting-edge guide to where we are going both as information consumers and in terms of broader societal changes. Each chapter explores aspects of the information lifecycle, including production, distribution, storage and consumption and contains case studies chosen to illustrate particular issues and challenges facing the information industry.

One of the key themes of the book is the way that organizations, public and commercial, are blurring their traditional lines of responsibility. Amazon is moving from simply selling books to offering the hardware and software for reading them. Apple still makes computer hardware but also manages one of the world’s leading marketplaces for music and software applications. Google maintains its position as the most popular internet search engine but has also digitized millions of copies of books from leading academic libraries and backed the development of the world’s most popular computing platform, Android. At the heart of these changes are the emergence of cheap computing devices for decoding and presenting digital information and a network which allows the bits and bytes to flow freely, for the moment at least, from producer to consumer.

While the digital revolution is impacting on everyone who works with information, sometimes negatively, the second edition of Information 2.0 shows that the opportunities outweigh the risks for those who take the time to understand what is going on. Information has never been more abundant and accessible so those who know how to manage it for the benefit of others in the digital age will be in great demand.

Contents: 1. Introduction 2. New models of information production 3. New models of information storage 4. New models of information distribution 5. New models of information consumption 6. Conclusion.

Readership: Students taking courses in library and information science, publishing and communication studies, with particular relevance to core modules exploring the information society and digital information. Academics and practitioners who need to get to grips with the new information environment.

It will offer guidance to team leaders and senior managers in all areas of library work, especially those involved in collection management, service provision and web development, and is equally applicable to the needs of academic, public, government, commercial and other more specialized library and information services. The text adopts a hands-on, jargon-free approach, and includes relevant examples, case studies, reader activities and sources of further reading.

METADATA

NEW

FORTHCOMING IN 2015 2ND EDITION

Metadata

How to clean, link and publish your metadata

Marcia Lei Zeng, Kent State University, USA and Jian Qin, Syracuse University, USA

Metadata remains the solution for describing the explosively growing, complex world of digital information, and continues to be of paramount importance for information professionals. Providing a solid grounding in the variety and April 2015 interrelationships among different metadata types, 400pp | £54.95 Paperback: Zeng and Qin’s thorough revision of their 9781783300525 benchmark text offers a comprehensive look at the metadata schemas that exist in the world of library and information science and beyond, as well as the contexts in which they operate. Cementing its value as both an LIS text and a handy reference for professionals already in the field, this book: • Lays out the fundamentals of metadata, including principles of metadata, structures of metadata vocabularies, and metadata descriptions • Surveys metadata standards and their applications in distinct domains and for various communities of metadata practice • Examines metadata building blocks, from modelling to defining properties, and from designing application profiles to implementing value vocabularies • Describes important concepts as resource identification, metadata as linked data, consumption of metadata, interoperability, and quality measurement • Offers an updated glossary to help readers navigate metadata’s complex terms in easy-to-understand definitions.

An online resource of web extras, packed with exercises, quizzes, and links to additional materials, completes this definitive primer on metadata.

Information Resource Description Creating and managing metadata

Philip Hider, Charles Sturt University, Australia

2012 288pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781856046671

“Hider explains clearly the wide range of metadata that exists, and helps the reader further by guiding through the book with cross-references and direction. We know there is “more on this to come in the next chapter” or if we missed a detail, we can go back and locate it in context. This is useful for those learning the subject, as well as the more expert reader. Hider does an impressive job tying together so many different aspects of metadata and providing the “big picture”, and the book is highly accessible and engaging.” - Library Management

This timely book employs the unifying mechanism of the semantic web and the resource description framework to integrate the various traditions and practices of information and knowledge organization. Uniquely, it covers both the domain-specific traditions and practices and the practices of the ‘metadata movement’ through a single lens – that of resource description in the broadest, semantic web sense.

This approach more readily accommodates coverage of the new Resource Description and Access (RDA) standard, which aims to move library cataloguing into the centre of the semantic web. The work surrounding RDA looks set to revolutionise the field of information organization, and this book will bring both the standard and its model and concepts into focus. Readership: LIS students taking information organization courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, information professionals wishing to specialise in the metadata area, and existing metadata specialists who wish to update their knowledge.

Each chapter is built around a case study from institutions around the world, demonstrating how freely available tools are being successfully used in different metadata contexts. This handbook delivers the necessary conceptual and practical understanding to empower practitioners to make the right decisions when making their organisations resources accessible on the Web Contents: Foreword - Sebastian Chan 1. Introduction 2. Modelling 3. Cleaning 4. Reconciling 5. Enriching 6. Publishing 7. Conclusions.

Edited by Gillian Oliver, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand and Fiorella Foscarini, University of British Columbia, Canada 2014 192pp | £54.95 Paperback: 9781856049474

“Human factors in recordkeeping - the elephant in the room. This is the book that was waiting to be written. Thanks to Oliver and Foscarini, we no longer have to wait to read it. It comes highly recommended.” - Australian Library Journal

This book explores how an understanding of organisational information culture provides the insight necessary for the development and promotion of sound recordkeeping practices. It details an innovative framework for analysing and assessing information culture, and indicates how to use this knowledge to change behaviour and develop recordkeeping practices that are aligned with the specific characteristics of any workplace.

This framework addresses the widely recognised problem of improving organisation-wide compliance with a records management programme by tackling the different aspects that make up the organisation’s information culture. Discussion of topics at each level of the framework includes strategies and guidelines for assessment, followed by suggestions for next steps: appropriate actions and strategies to influence behavioural change.

Contents: 1. Background and context 2. The value accorded to records 3. Information preferences 4. Language considerations and regional technological infrastructure 5. Information related competencies 6. Awareness of environmental requirements relating to records 7. Corporate information technology governance 8. Trust in recordkeeping systems 9. Bringing it all together. Readership: Archivists, records managers and information technology specialists will find this an invaluable guide to improving their practice and solving the ‘people problem’ of non-compliance with records management programmes. LIS students taking archives and records management modules will also benefit from the application of theory into practice. Records management and information management educators will find the ideas and approaches discussed in this book useful to add an information culture perspective to their curricula. 2011 272pp | £64.95 Paperback: 9781856046633 eBook: 9781856049177

Records and Information Management

Patricia C Franks, San Jose State University, USA

2013 448pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781856048361

“This book contains an encyclopaedic wealth of detail on the status of records and information management in our evolving digital world. The amount of research, the attention to detail, and the effort that has gone into the presentation of each chapter with sidebars, down to the italicised font drawing attention to key terms, has to be viewed to be fully appreciated...The previously held view that librarianship and records management were two separate disciplines needs to be discarded. In this day and age the boundaries are interchangeable and in some cases non-existent. This book bridges the gap for librarians, allowing them to cross the boundary into information and records management.” - Australian Library Journal

This book provides a comprehensive, strategic approach to the creation, management, and disposition of information and records in organisations and is the first to analyse the impact that cloud computing and emerging technologies such as social networks and microblogging has on records management programmes. The emergence of Web 2.0 and social media has fundamentally changed the way information is created, exchanged, and stored. Information is a valuable asset to be employed by the organisation to help meet its goals, but it can also pose a risk to the organisation if not effectively managed. The increasingly complex regulatory and legal environment, along with the growing volume and changing nature of records and information created through emerging technologies, has brought records and information management to the attention of executives who are ultimately responsible for the success or failure of their organisations. This book provides readers either an introduction to or a review of records management principles and practices, but with a consideration of the impact on those principles and practices made by records created through the use of emerging technologies and stored in the clouds. Contents: Governance Program on a solid RIM Foundation 3. Records and Information Creation/Capture, Classification, and File Plan Development 4. Records Retention Strategies: Inventory, Appraisal, Retention, and Disposition 5. Records and Information Access, Storage, and Retrieval 6. Electronic Records and Electronic Records Management Systems 7. Emerging Technologies and Records Management 8. Vital Records, Disaster Preparedness and Recovery, and Business Continuity 9. Monitoring, Auditing, and Risk Management 10. Inactive Records Management, Archives, and Long-Term Preservation 11. Records Management Education and Training 12. From Records Management to Information Governance, An Evolution. Readership: This book will be of interest to students of archives and records management, experienced archives and records professionals who want a new perspective on their chosen field, supervisors and managers with the responsibility for records and information management and upper-level managers, executives, and other decision makers who are responsible for effectively managing their organisation's information assets. 2005 216pp | £54.95 Hardback: 9781856045506 eBook: 9781856049160

RESEARCH DATA MANAGEMENT FORTHCOMING IN 2015

A Data Librarian’s Handbook

Robin C Rice, University of Edinburgh, UK and John Southall, Bodleian Libraries, UK

December 2015 224pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781783300471

The importance of data has never been greater. There has been a growing concern with the ‘skills gap’ required to exploit the data surfeit; the ability to collect, compute and crunch data, for economic, social and scientific purposes. This book, written by two working data librarians based at the Universities of Oxford and Edinburgh aims to help fill this skills gap by providing a nuts and bolts guide to research data support.

A Data Librarian’s Handbook draws on a combination of over 30 years’ experience providing data support services to create the ‘must-read’ book for all entrants to this field. This book ‘zooms in’ to the actual library service level, where the interaction between the researcher and the librarian takes place. Both engaging and practical, this book draws the reader in through story-telling and suggested activities, linking concepts from one chapter to another.

Contents: 1.Data librarianship: responding to research innovation 2. What’s different about data? 3. Building data collections 4. Playing with data 5. The essentials of data repositories 6. Supporting literacy in data 7. Service and policy: working across your institution 8. Data Management Plans as a calling card 9. Dealing with sensitive data 10. Open data, open access, open science.

Readership: This book is for the practicing data librarian, possibly new in their post with little experience of providing data support. It is also for managers and policymakers, public service librarians, research data management “coordinators” and data support staff. It will also appeal to students and lecturers in iSchools and other library and information degree programmes where academic research support is taught.

“...this book is one that librarians can learn from, use, and adapt...the book is presented in a straightforward and scholarly manner without the overuse of jargon.” - Journal of Electronic Resources Librarianship

Step-by-step guidance to setting up and running effective institutional research data management services to support researchers and networks.

The research landscape is changing, with key global research funders now requiring institutions to demonstrate how they will preserve and share research data. However, the practice of structured research data management is very new, and the construction of services remains experimental and in need of models and standards of approach. This groundbreaking guide will lead researchers, institutions and policy makers through the processes needed to set up and run effective institutional research data management services. This ‘how to’ guide provides a step-by-step explanation of the components for an institutional service. Case studies from the newly emerging service infrastructures in the UK, USA and Australia draw out the lessons learnt. Different approaches are highlighted and compared; for example, a researcher-focused strategy from Australia is contrasted with a national, top-down approach, and a national research data management service is discussed as an alternative to institutional services.

Mariam Garibyan, University of Worcester, UK, Simon McLeish, University of Oxford, UK and John Paschoud, LSE, UK 2013 272pp | £49.95 Paperback: 9781856045889 eBook: 9781783300006

“...provides an excellent, well-organized overview of the structures, protocols, and skills necessary for controlling online access to proprietary information resources. The book, including introduction, glossary, appendices, and index, is just slightly over 250 pages long and presents the topic in a logical manner with an appropriate level of detail and useful, real-world examples.” - Journal of Access Services

Practical guidance to ensuring that your users can access and personalise the online resources they are entitled to use with the minimum of fuss. With the rapid increase in the use of electronic resources in libraries, managing access to online information is an area many librarians struggle with. Managers of online information wish to implement policies about who can access the information and under what terms and conditions but often they need further guidance.

Written by experts in the field, this practical book is the first to explain the principles behind access management, the available technologies and how they work. This includes an overview of federated access management technologies, such as Shibboleth, that have gained increasing international recognition in recent years. This book provides detailed case studies describing how access management is being implemented at organizational and national levels in the UK, USA and Europe, and gives a practical guide to the resources available to help plan, implement and operate access management in libraries.

Contents: Foreword - Clifford Lynch 1. What is access management, and why do libraries do it? 2. Electronic resources: public and not so public 3. Principles and definitions of identity and access management 4. Current access management technologies 5. Authentication technologies 6. Authorization based on physical location: how does the internet know where I am? 7. Authorization based on user identity or affiliation with a library: who you are? or what you do? 8. Federated access: history, current position and future developments 9. Proprietary access management and identity management products and services 10. Internet access provided by (or in) libraries 11. Library statistics 12. Business cases for libraries Appendix 1. Case studies Appendix 2. A White Paper on Authentication and Access Management Issues in Cross-organizational Use of Networked Information Resources. Readership: This is essential reading for all who need to understand the principles behind access management or implement a working system in their library.

"This book is a great starting point for anyone interested in using mobile technologies to deliver library services but not sure where to start. It's easy to read, the language used is jargon free, and the opportunities and challenges are fully explained. However it's not so simple that it wouldn't appeal to those who have a bit more knowledge and I can see myself consulting it regularly." - Refer
