Abstract:
The main article objective is a terminological analysis of «librarianship» concept. The development of theoretical concepts of librarianship as a science and as a branch of knowledge is explored. The concept of «library thought» and its correspondence with the concept of «the history of librarianship» is analyzed. The author substantiate the idea that the library thought development did not contradict the history of library science and was its important part, librarianship roots should be traced with the emergence of the first libraries. This point of view on the history of librarianship found understanding in the works by I. V. Lukashov, V. V. Skvortsov, M. I. Slukhovsky, Yu. N. Stolyarov and other library scholars. The article deals with polemic questions: when has librarianship been recognized as a science; can the first use of the concept of «librarianship» be considered as a sign of the emergence of library science. The analysis of applying the concept «library science» showed that before the early XX century it was defined as «a systematic presentation of knowledge about libraries organization and the management». The article analyzes dividing the library science into theoretical and practical parts; examines the fate of the theoretical librarianship in frames of «theoretical» discussions taken place in early 1930s, and attempts of Soviet scientists (V. A. Artisevich, I. A. Mesenyashin, N. Ya. Fridieva) to revive the theoretical library science; considers the views of Yu. V. Grigoriev substantiated the library science as independent one. Analysis of the national library science thought development in 1960s-70s of the XX century showed that its development was characterized by a scientific approach, with heightened attention to general theoretical and methodological problems that contributed to forming the librarianship as a science. The article states that in the modern terminology of the national library science there are two concepts: as a librarianship independent science and as a branch of knowledge. Combination into a single term of at least two different «library sciences» leads both to typological and substantial inconsistencies and errors, which can be seen in a variety of theoretical and practical disciplines including the word «librarianship». The author offers two options concerning use of the term «librarianship». The first one is to call the «librarianship» on the western model «library science», and the term «librarianship» applies to various disciplines (library science as a branch of knowledge). The second one is to retain in national science traditional name «librarianship» as a synonym for «library science» and not to use the word «librarianship» in the titles of different library disciplines to avoid confusion.

Abstract:
Classical librarianship drowns in the sea of change. in the United States our profession had indicated a profound change -especially in the last 20 years. Until 1976, 15 schools or departments of librarianship had been closed, and the rest had undergone a serious transformation. During the last 20 years, library education became no more homogeneous as it was in the past. New educational programs show vast diversity. The scope of the mission of library services became enlarged. Type of students, ways of teaching had also indicated a substantial change. On the other hand, the librarian of today requires lifelong self­education.

Abstract:
The aim of the article is to present an overview of generation, formation and development of the history of domestic librarianship, since the late 1930s until 2018, basing on the study of materials of dissertations. In the course of analysis, the author revealed 1064 theses in the field of library science and related areas, 270 of which are devoted to the history of librarianship. The article shows that dissertations research on the history of librarianship in the initial period from 1930 to 1950 occupied up to the half of all library dissertation theses; about a third of them were created in the period from 1951 to 1970 and a quarter — since 1971 to the present. This indicates that interest to the history of librarianship is stable. The article reflects the peak of historical research that fell on the period from 2001 to 2010. The author suggests that 25% indicator level of historical studies of the total number of research works on library science is a necessary and sufficient level to ensure the development of library science in general.The article notes multidisciplinary nature of dissertations research: 60% of studies defended in pedagogical sciences, 37% — in historical sciences and slightly more than 3% — in other branches of science. The article reveals the gradual increase in the number of prepared and defended dissertation theses in historical sciences, which contributes to the expansion of research space in the history of library construction. The author carried out periodization of dissertations research. It is shown that the main attention was paid to the research studies on the history of Soviet period in library construction.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the analysis of the «Ministry of Education Journal» as a historical source on the history of libraries and librarianship. The magazine was published in 1834–1917. During the journal activities it published about 45 thousand articles, over 300 of which were devoted to librarianship. This is an average 3.42 publications per year. They are normative acts in the field of librarianship, articles devoted foreign librarianship, history of domestic libraries. A large number of notes were reprinted from local editions and dedicated to the provincial public libraries and libraries of educational institutions.For the first time in the national librarianship the author analyzes the editorial policy of the journal related to library construction. The first stage was based on the concept of official nationality of the Minister of Education S. Uvarov, which was focused on publishing articles on the library system organization and familiarizing readers with the world librarianship development. The editorial policy second stage, began in 1860, was based on N. Ushinsky views about education nationality and upbringing through the book. The special attention was paid to activities of the Imperial Public Library, Rumyantsev Public Museum and Vilen Public Library. For the first time the journal publishes articles devoted to the problem of academic libraries acquisition, cataloging, etc.

Full text
Abstract:
Library Science has traditionally been a discipline which operates from a pragmatic rather than a philosophical framework. Theory is traditionally superseded by practice, rendering librarianship a field lacking in concrete foundations. However, philosophy, particularly phenomenology, harbors powerful ramifications for improving both the theoretical underpinnings and practical applications of the field. In particular, phenomenologist Edith Stein's research on empathy has the unique potential to advance librarianship by providing a model for better understanding of patron needs. In order to translate Stein's theory into practice, the classic feminist strategy of consciousness-raising provides a novel methodology.

Morgan, Richard. "Component library retrieval using property models." Thesis, Durham University, 1991. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/6095/.

Full text
Abstract:
The re-use of products such as code, specifications, design decisions and documentation has been proposed as a method for increasing software productivity and reliability. A major problem that has still to be adequately solved is the storage and retrieval of re-usable 'components'. Current methods, such as keyword retrieval and catalogues, rely on the use of names to describe components or categories. This is inadequate for all but a few well established components and categories; in the majority of cases names do not convey sufficient information on which to base a decision to retrieve. One approach to this problem is to describe components using a formal specification. However this is impractical for two reasons; firstly, the limitations of theorem proving would severely restrict the complexity of components that could be retrieved and secondly the retrieval mechanism would need to have a method of retrieving components with 'similar' specifications. This thesis proposes the use of formal 'property' models to represent the key functionality of components. Retrieval of components can then take place on the basis of a property model produced by the library's users. These models only describe the key properties of a component, thereby making the task of comparing properties feasible. Views are introduced as a method of relating similar, non identical property models, and the use of these views facilitates the re-use of components with similar properties. The language Miramod has been developed for the purpose of describing components, and a Miramod compiler and property prover which allow Miramod models to be compared for similarity, have been designed and implemented. These tools have indicated that model based component library retrieval is feasible at relatively low levels of the programming process, and future work is suggested to extend the method to encompass earlier stages in the development of large systems.

Full text
Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to propose a means of reconciling the competing ideas of library and information science's identity, thereby strengthening professional autonomy. I make the case that developing a system of virtue ethics for librarianship would be an effective way to promote that reconciliation. The first step in developing virtue ethics is uncovering librarianship's function. Standard approaches to virtue ethics rely on classical Greek ideas about the nature of being to determine function. Since classical ideas of being may no longer be persuasive, I introduce another approach to uncover librarianship's function that still meets all of the criteria needed to establish a foundation for a system of virtue ethics. This approach is hermeneutical phenomenology, the philosophical discipline of interpreting the meaning given to historical events. Hans-Georg Gadamer's hermeneutic circle technique and Paul Ricoeur's theory of narrative intelligence are used to engage in a dialogue with three crises in the history of American librarianship. These pivotal events are the fiction question, librarian nationalism during World War I, and the dispute between supporters of the "Library Bill of Rights" and social responsibility. From these crises, three recurring themes become apparent: the tendency to reconcile idealism and pragmatism, the intent to do good for individuals and society, and the role of professional insecurity in precipitating the conflicts. Through emplotment of these themes, an identity narrative for librarianship emerges. My finding is that librarianship's function is the promotion of stability-happiness. This is the dual-process of supporting dominant socio-cultural institutions as a means of protecting librarianship's ability to offer the knowledge, cultural records, and avenues for information literacy that can improve lives and facilitate individuals' pursuit of happiness. In the conclusion, the ethical implications of having stability-happiness as the profession's function are considered. It includes a discussion of how librarianship's narrative identity could be applied to develop an ethical character for the profession and how such a character, combined with knowledge of function, might address persistent problems of race and gender disparity in library and information science.

Abstract:
From the very beginning, library education has been a mixture of theory and practice. Dewey required apprenticeships to be part of the first library school at the University of Chicago as a method to indoctrinate new professional. Today, acculturation is incorporated into the professional education through a large variety of experiential learning techniques, including internships, practicum, field work, and service learning projects, all of which are designed to develop some level of professional skills within an information organization. But, what is done for understanding library culture? It is said that one cannot truly recognize the extent of one's own cultural assumptions, until they have experienced another. This study followed a group of LIS graduate students that took that next step – going to Russia. By employing a critical hermeneutic methodology, this study sought to understand what value students gain by from working on an assessment project in an international school library. Using a horizon analysis, the researcher established the worldview of participants prior to their departure, analyzed their experience through post-experience interviews, and constructed an understanding of value. Among other concepts, the researcher looked specifically to see whether "library cultural competency", understanding library culture in global context, was developed through working on a service learning project within an international school library. This dissertation provides feedback for the program leaders and ideas for future research.

Full text
Abstract:
This study aims to construct a historical model of library provision in Scotland from the 16th century to the present day. It falls naturally into three parts: A first section covering the period 1560-1850 which discusses the origin and development of library provision and use in Scotland and identifies its main characteristics. A second section 'Sectoral Analysis' which is an analysis of the LIBSCOT file, a microcomputer held directory of library provision in Scotland in the 1890s. After an overview chapter each type of library in Scotland, derived from a classification devised by the author, is described in turn and its main characteristics, statistical and factual, are identified. A third section, Evaluation, which analyses the LIBSCOT file data in general terms, examines the development of policy for library provision in Scotland and considers how contemporary librarianship in Scotland has been shaped by the historical model. A final chapter considers the study's importance for library historiography. The historical model, briefly stated, suggests that library provision in Scotland has traditionally been based on small administrative, local community centred roots which originated in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. These traditions originated in small market towns and villages and although they spread to large towns and cities the small population unit remained the essential base for library provision. By the end of the 18th century a structure of library provision had emerged, based on small units which were amateur but not amateurish in character and were hostile to large bureaucratic units and an ideology of professionalism. The evidence of the LIBSCOT file shows that this picture was largely unchanged by the late 19th century. In the 20th century slow progress was made towards a new model of library provision, based on large administrative units and an ideology of professionalism was slow to develop. Attitudes did not change until the 1960s.

Abstract:
This phenomenological study examines the motivations and experiences of librarians who author professionally-focused Weblogs. I constructed a model of librarianship based on Wilson and Buckland. The results show a close fit between librarian bloggers and the ideals of the field as expressed by two primary library and information science philosophers. A Web survey generated 239 responses to demographic and open-ended questions. Using the results of the survey, I analyzed demographic data and performed a phenomenological analysis of the open-ended questions. A list of category responses was generated from each set of answers via the coding of descriptive words and phrases. Results indicated the motivations of librarian bloggers are based around themes of sharing, participation in community, and enhanced professional development. Respondents reported feeling more connected to the profession and to colleagues across the world because of blogging. Respondents perceived the librarian blogosphere as a community with both positive aspects - feedback, discussion, and support - and negative aspects - insular voices, divides between technologists and librarians, and generational rifts. Respondents also reported an increased ability to keep current, improved writing skills, and opportunities to speak and contribute to professional journals.

Williamson, Matthew J. "The public library and social inclusion : information services to jobseekers." Thesis, University of Brighton, 1998. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.287127.

Full text
Abstract:
The principle that libraries have a role to play in the provision of information for jobseekers is recognised widely in public library authorities across the country, not only by the authorities themselves, but also by other bodies concerned with jobseekers. However, the range and variety of initiatives is capable of generating confusion among jobseekers. The library is well placed to act as a focus for information for jobseekers - information that comes from a variety of institutions and initiatives and is not only confined to vacancies. This thus poses three questions which the research attempts to answer :- - is the library at the focus? - is the library seen to be at the focus? - if not, why not - if so, how does it make it work? This project approaches these questions by contributing to the current national debates as to the future development of information agencies, policies and initiatives through the interviews with Job Centre clients, a group whose views in this area have never before been canvassed and who, therefore, offer a new perspective on the issues. This debate has raised the potential of the public library network as an agent of social and economic regeneration, a role of the public library previously accepted within the service, but rarely without. The thesis demonstrates the interface between the social and economic potential of the public library and the needs and demands of the 'information poor', as well as highlighting the importance of the recreational role of the Public Library. The methods used to answer these questions were threefold. Firstly, a survey was carried out of all public library authorities in England and Wales. Of the surveys distributed, 82% were completed, an excellent rate of response. It is clear from this survey that the overwhelming majority of public library authorities feel that it is their role to provide services for jobseekers. The survey also shows that many authorities provide a wide range of non-statutory services. This provision of the "newer" technologies is important for jobseekers as they are generally unable to afford to purchase such technology. The survey also indicated that the view of jobseekers held by public library authorities was an inclusive one, and covered those both in and out of work. Secondly, case-study authorities were chosen from the respondents to the questionnaire. These were selected on the basis of declared level of provision, and also on type of authority. Four case studies were selected, one County Council (Wiltshire), two Urban Authorities (Lewisham and Manchester) and one Welsh Authority (Wrexham). The selection was carried out thus in order to reflect the preponderance of Urban Authorities in the respondents to the original survey. These case studies have investigated the demographics, control and profile of the authorities involved. Managers and staff of library authorities were interviewed about provision and provision was viewed on site and assessed with reference to other case studies and two models of provision, the 'integrative' and the 'targeted' were identified. Thirdly, interviews were undertaken with clients of Job Centres in the case-study authorities. Ninety-four interviews were carried out across the four authorities. These interviews investigated jobseekers use of both the public library and other information providers in this area, and also assessed jobseekers' attitudes towards the public library. The survey showed that almost 70% of those interviewed used the public library, with 48% of these using the library at least once a month. Just over half of the respondents said that the Public library was for everyone and should provide useful information for jobseekers. Only 16% said that the library was not the place for jobseekers to obtain information. When asked if they would use the Public Library if it advertised services useful to jobseekers, 94% said that they would. This empirical work has been placed within a theoretical framework based on the work of Jiirgen Habermas. The public library is "arguably the nearest thing we have in Britain to an achieved Public Sphere" (Webster 1995) and this research enables the conception of the Public Library as an achieved Public Sphere to be reassessed and, therefore, the role of the public library to be reconceptualised.

Evans, Geraint I. "Local government structures and the public library service in Wales." Thesis, Loughborough University, 1995. https://dspace.lboro.ac.uk/2134/12901.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines the relationship between evolution and change in local government structures and the development of the public library service, concentrating on the development of that service in Wales. This relationship is examined against governmental enquiries such as the Roberts Report (1959), the Bourdillon Report (1962) and the Redcliffe Maud Report (1969), and the culmination of these enquiries, The Public Libraries and Museums Act, 1964 and The Local Government Act, 1972. Special attention is paid to Section 207 of the Local Government Act which enabled district councils in Wales to apply for library powers. An investigation of the mechanics and rationale of awarding such powers in 1974 and 1984 is based on research of private papers and statistical analysis. Expenditure patterns and service delivery levels of all public library authorities in Wales are examined for the period 1979-1989 to attempt to discover whether counties or districts best match selected criteria of efficiency. The whole topic is brought full circle though an examination of the post-1990 proposals for the re-structuring of local government, concentrating once again on the implications for the public library service in Wales.

Full text
Abstract:
Library inventories are widely acknowledged for their importance in intellectual history, but there are few detailed studies of library classification in this context. The discussion centres on the inventories of 36 English private libraries from 1521 to 1640, with a view to understanding what could have prompted a compiler to adopt one system of arrangement instead of another. Nine of the inventories are transcribed from unpublished manuscripts, including lists of the books of William Paget, 4th Baron Paget (1617), William Somner (1639), and a previously unidentified catalogue of the books of the physician William Rant (1595). The classification of books was a matter of some concern at the time: the problems raised by library classification were beginning to attract the attention of writers on the subject, and a compiler's approach was not always as haphazard as it may seem at first. On the whole, however, the classification of books was more spontaneous than deliberate, and it is for this reason that it was often finely attuned to the professional concerns and personal interests of owners, as well as to the cultural climate of the time (religious controversies, interest in languages other than Latin). The medieval trivium was losing its momentum in the classifications of the period, and mathematics, for centuries associated with the quadrivium in classifications, was viewed in a new light under the influence of Neo-Platonism. New trends in library classification appeared side by side with age-long practices, thereby underscoring the deeply transitional nature of the period.

Abstract:
As information resources of all types and disciplines are being stored and retrieved in digital form, libraries are responding to the demands for more effective retrieval of such documents and to provide even more digital access to scholarly and recreational library materials. This has led schools of library and information science to develop special programs, degrees, and certificates in digital librarianship. These programs vary from one school to another, but they all demonstrate the multidisciplinarity of education for librarians who will work specifically with digital librarianship. Library and Information Science education has always had a multidiscipline orientation, with traditional faculty consisting of those with degrees in the fields of sociology, communications, history, public administration, education, engineering, and computer science, as well as advanced degrees in library and information science. But with the advent of special programs in digital librarianship, the curriculum has begun to switch to a multidiscipline curriculum content which may be evolving into a sub-specialization in the field. These trends are examined in this paper and recommendations are made regarding future research needed to determine the advisability and sustainability of this trend.

Abstract:
The present paper offers that most of the advocates of discipline of library and information science believe that there is a lack of theoretical foundation and rational identity. The author maintains that there has been an error in defining the subject by confusing library with librarianship. That is many researchers have derived the concept of librarianship from library. Therefore they came to define librarianship as an entity only through the social application and services. If instead, a librarian was assumed to be a person who was usually a scholar, with or without the knowledge of classification properly, and if it was further assumed that before establishing any library, at least there has always been one thoughtful person with the enthusiasm of classifying his own tacit or explicit knowledge in order to retrieve, the concept of librarianship could have been derived from the concept of personal seeking of knowledge, or the need of any knowledgeable person who believes in scientific classification for the sake of retrieval. Thus, there has always been the necessity for scientific classification even if there has not been any formal library. So, I propose that librarianship is more related to the knowledge retrieval and classification which is in the mind of all people specially scholars and learned men before the library, as a place for the collection of books and other materials come to being.

Abstract:
The evolution of e-libraries (EL) is reviewed. Several definitions of the term e-library are examined. The core EL function is to build collection of arbitrarily located documents on various media. The differences between ELs and collections of digital resources are analyzed. EL types are listed. Russian electronic library systems (ELS) are characterized. The national electronic libraries (NEL) and open information archives are the main trends in EL development. The EL is the subject of e-librarianship, the newest specific discipline of the library science.

Abstract:
Being the all-Union coordination center for bibliography in technologies and the methodological center for USSR’s scientific and special libraries, the State Public Scientific and Technical Library of the USSR issued reference bibliographic publications, special periodicals, serials and manuals based on the research accomplished by the Library. It developed the system of learning materials in every area of library services and functions (user services, collection development and organization, reference aids, bibliographic work, etc.). All materials were highly demanded by scientific and technical libraries of the country and were of great importance for the advance of scientific, technical and special libraries and national librarianship on the whole. The author reviews the key reference bibliographic and methodological materials produced by the State Public Scientific and Technical Library of the USSR in 1958–1980.
