Director of Information Services at London Business School (LBS) for the past 7
years. Shortly after his appointment at LBS, the idea occurred to him to
leverage the talent and resources within the library into an online portal
focused on business education.The project led to BestofBiz, a state-of-the-art
alliance of high quality educational resources and innovative interfaces.
BestofBiz also benefits from illustrious partnerships with the editorial expertise
of A&C Black and the marketing power of Emerald Group Publishing. Russell

an electrostatic levitation train, as a conventional high voltage rotating
engine, as an electrostatic electric generator weapon (high speed gun), and so
on.

The Library Quarterly is
pleased to announce an expanded reviews section. While continuing to review print monographs
and reference books, the new reviews section will also include coverage of
websites, databases, and exhibits. The
broadened scope of the reviews section requires more reviewers who have
expertise in relevant areas. To enable
this expansion of the Reviews Section, The Library Quarterly is extremely
pleased to welcome the Association of College and Research Libraries Library
& Information Science Collections Discussion Group as full partners. The Group will assume responsibility
for: ?
Identifying items in all
five media for possible review; ? Soliciting reviewers from faculty, peers, and doctoral students within
their LIS programs and across their campuses; and ? Communicating with LQ editorial offices to
insure the smooth transition of edited reviewing copy for subsequent
publication in LQ. Sue Searing, head of

suggestions and questions directly to Linda Most at lrm04c@fsu.edu. Additional information on how to participate
in the reviews process can be found on the LQ website, http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/LQ/home.html. We hope all involved in the reviews process
-- readers, committee members, staff members, and reviewers -- will be alert to
potential items for review and will volunteer to write reviews as well.

Abstract. Since the emergence of

are poorer. This situation contributes to various issues related to individuals
and society. Interestingly enough, although the

Multiple Cultures, Multiple Intelligences: Applying
Cognitive Theory to Usability of Digital Libraries
CAROL SMITH
Abstract. Digital libraries are
increasingly serving a worldwide audience. Persons of different cultural
backgrounds can hold diverse perceptions of what constitutes an effective,
efficient and satisfying information-seeking experience, and digital library
design therefore grows more complex when its user population traverses cultural
boundaries. This paper reviews the state of research on cross-cultural digital
library usability and identifies reasons for lack of progress in the field. An
improved framework is proposed to support the discussion and evaluation of
subjective cultural factors in a deeper, more systematic fashion. The cognitive
theory of Howard Gardner, multiple intelligences theory, is explored as one
potential framework for exploring cross-cultural digital library usability.

Scholarly Communication in Scientific
Research Practice - A Study of Computer Sciences Faculty
YI SHEN
Abstract. This study explores computer
scientists' modes of communication within scientific inquiry. Situated in a
socially constructed research practice, the findings provide a focused view of
the collective use of two sets of communication mechanisms - electronic
information mechanisms and interpersonal communication channels - within a
technology-intensive field. These results are theoretically and pragmatically
interesting for both scholarly communication research and library and
information professionals. They suggest that to understand scholarly
communication, exploring social cues embedded in the real world practice will
yield valuable information, while the detailed examination of research practice
may provide a resource for the general design of systems to support
collaborative scientific work.

The Changing Definition of
Abstract. American libraries
currently face a dramatic shift in how they are perceived, both by the public
and by lawmakers. In order to preserve the traditional values observed by
librarians, such as patron privacy and access to information, libraries must
also preserve the traditional associations that have defined them. The value of
libraries has been under mined by the threat of terrorism and the subsequent
political pressure to find blame for the terrorist attacks. Librarians must
choose whether or not to stick to the traditional library brand, or evolve and
market libraries as something else. Without public support, definitions will
not change easily. The American public still views the library as a place to
read and find books, and this definition must prevail for libraries to retain
their relevance in American life.

Abstract. Recently more and

Web sites. The volatility of electronic media had been creating difficulties
for students and LIS educators to estimate overall job trends. An online
database at an ALA-accredited library school was designed to allow recruiters
to make postings at no cost. In total, 974 library-related advertisements have
been posted since 2000. Content analysis reveals most recruiters using this
site were from academic libraries (48%) and from public libraries (35%). The
most frequently cited qualifications requested were academic background along
with communication, professional and technological skills. Results from the
database analysis confirm previous findings based on print media. The study
suggests that a job database implemented collaboratively among LIS institutions
at a national and international level might serve to match recent graduates
with employers while at the same time providing empirical data on the skills
required in the marketplace.

Gender Terminology and
Indexing Systems: The Case of Woman's Body, Image and Visualization MARIA J.
LOPEZ-HUERTAS and ISABEL DE TORRES RAMIREZ
Abstract. Representation and
organization of knowledge in inter-disciplinary/transdisciplinary domains have
attracted little attention among specialists in Information Science. The lack
of attention has affected the management of this kind of information in a
negative way because models used for handling interdisciplinary information are
based on or inspired by disciplinarity, causing problems in information
retrieval. This study is part of broader research aiming to analyze an
interdisciplinary domain, in this case Gender Studies, in order to identify its
terminological behaviour and its conceptual dynamics for information retrieval.
On the basis of a selected lexicon of 333 terms taken from a total of 5,200
terms coming from different sources, this study aims to bring to light the
model followed in the representation of concepts related to the health, image
and body of women, and their visualization in texts specialized in gender and
in information retrieval systems, particularly in Gender thesauri. Secondary
objectives are to determine if these sources suffer from gender bias and other
types of prejudices of social constructions, here in regards to the body and
the health of women, and to identify the research interest that these topics
awaken, as reflected in the selected collection of specialized documents. To
this end, a quantitative analysis of the selected terminology was done,
comparing the results obtained with the selected lexicon from the indexing
systems with the lexicon obtained from the primary sources, to detect
coinciding terms and possible differences between the two, and so to appraise
the documental warrant of the systems. Finally, the terms were grouped into
categories in order to reveal the most relevant aspects for representation in
the overall context of women's health, the female body and the image of women.

JESSE@LISTSERV.UTK.EDU Partnership: the Canadian
Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research
Later this month “The
Partnership: the Provincial and Territorial Library Associations of Canada”
will launch a new open access peer reviewed journal entitled: Partnership: the
Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research. The purpose of the journal is to provide
opportunities to the Canadian library community in the realm of scholarly
communication. The journal is an outlet
for sharing innovations in the workplace and one of only a few peer reviewed
Canadian venues for research in the field of librarianship. The journal, run solely by volunteers, also
provides a chance for librarians, information professionals and library workers
to gain experience as editors, reviewers and writing coaches. The philosophy
behind the journal is to provide rigorous peer review and high standards in
both theoretical and practical aspects of our profession and to provide it
freely and immediately to everyone. No
embargoes – this is for librarians who talk the talk and walk the walk! In addition to the double blind peer review
sections entitled Theory and Research and Innovations in Practice, the journal
will have a peer reviewed conference section, as well as Canadian news,
profiles and views from members of the library community and beyond. The journal is employing Open Journal
Software (OJS) developed at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia and is
hosted at the University of Guelph in Ontario. To learn more about the journal or to view our first issue go to www.partnershipjournal.ca <http://www.partnershipjournal.ca/> or contact Jennifer Richard, Editor in Chief
at Jennifer.richard@acadiau.ca <mailto:Jennifer.richard@acadiau.ca>
. The deadline for submissions to
Innovations in Practice, Theory and Research and Conference Spotlight for the
Spring 2007 issue is January 31, 2007. International submissions are welcome.

Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography Changes
I have resigned my position
as Assistant Dean for Digital Library Planning and Development at the
Effective immediately, there
are several important changes to the Scholarly Electronic Publishing
Bibliography (SEPB), Scholarly Electronic Publishing Resources (SEPR), and the
Scholarly Electronic Publishing Weblog (SEPW) that users should be aware of:
1. These publications have
been moved to my domain:
http://www.digital-scholarship.com/
SEPB
http://www.digital-scholarship.com/sepb/sepb.html
SEPR
http://www.digital-scholarship.com/sepb/sepr.htm
SEPW
http://www.digital-scholarship.com/sepb/sepw.htm
2. While the UH Libraries
will archive SEPB versions up to version 64, no new versions will be published
on their Website. If you maintain a
catalog record for SEPB, I would ask that you update it with the new
address. Next Monday's SEPW will be
published at the new site.
3. A transition version of
SEPB (65) has been published at the new site. There are no content changes. This version simply makes a number of HTML
coding adjustments needed for the new location. A Google Custom Search Engine
replaces the prior search capability. Once Google starts indexing the new site, search results will be from
that site.
4. The SEPW mailing list
will be discontinued at the end work today. You can continue to get an e-mail
version from FeedBurner. I'm sorry for the inconvenience of your having to sign
up again; all that is required is your e-mail address.
http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=51756
5. The SEPW RSS feed remains
the same:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/ScholarlyElectronicPublishingWeblogrss
6. You can continue to
follow my digital publishing activities at my domain and at DigitalKoans:
http://www.escholarlypub.com/digitalkoans/
Thanks for your patience
during this transition.
