Abstract:
Federal funding for libraries increases in FY 2020 and the 2020 Census is underwayCongressional appropriators needed overtime to complete the FY 2020 budget, but the result was good news for libraries: a $10 million increase for the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), including $6.2 million for the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) – the largest increase in LSTA funding in 12 years. The final federal spending bill also includes increases for other library and higher education programs, including the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act, Library of Congress, National Library of Medicine, National Endowment for the Arts, National Endowment for the Humanities, and programs for students and institutions of higher education.

Artikel ini mendiskusikan secara detil tentang penerapan Lima Hukum Dr. S. R. Ranganathan tentang Ilmu Perpustakaan dalam pemasaran sumber-sumber informasi dan layanan perpustakaan. Pemasaran ialah menyangkut perencanaan, pengorganisasian, diseminasi, dan pengawasan setiap layanan informasi yang diberikan secara proaktif dan berorientasi pada pengguna untuk memastikan kepuasan pengguna dalam mencapai visi utama organisasi. Lebih jauh, tulisan ini menekankan pada sisi pentingnya menggunakan kelima hukum ini sebagai pedoman prinsip memberikan layanan yang terbaik kepada pengguna. Untuk maksimalnya pemanfaatan perpustakaan, pustakawan harus meningkatkan kemampuannya dalam mempromosikan layanan perpustakaan yang disediakan karena pemasaran atau promosi adalah hal yang penting untuk membangun dan mengembangkan perpustakaan.ABSTRACT:This paper discussed in detail the implication of Dr. S. R. Ranganathan’s Five Laws of Library Science in marketing library and information resources and services. Marketing in librarianship is an act of planning, organizing, dissemination and controlling of information services on a proactive and users’ oriented way that ensures the patron's satisfaction while achieving the objectives of the parent organization. The paper, therefore, emphasized more on the importance of using the laws as a guiding principle to provide adequate service delivery to the users. To achieve maximum utilization of library resources, librarians must improve the way they market their services because marketing is vital to the growth and development of any library irrespective of the parent organization.

Abstract:
While it is essential that national library functions and services are carried out, within the English-speaking Caribbean these functions can be provided by extending the role of the country's main public library. A questionnaire was administered in 1994 to 14 public libraries and one national library in the region to ascertain if public libraries performed any national library functions and if so to assess how effectively, with a view to formulating proposals as to how best this dual role could be achieved. The survey, in which 13 libraries participated, revealed that a majority of the libraries did in fact act as de facto national libraries, performing many of the functions of traditional national libraries, though there were major deficiencies (e.g. only seven had legal deposit, and only four produced national bibliographies). A structure for a dual-function Public/National Library is proposed, with three functional divisions (Public Library Services, Technical Services, and National Heritage) and a powerful National Library Services Board.

Abstract:
This study has addressed three core questions: What is the current state of School Library Services? How is the Education Reform Act affecting these services? Why are specific choices being made by School Library Services from the options available post-ERA? Information was gathered from questionnaires, consultation, seminars etc., and also by contact 1989-91 with 14 authorities in England and Wales. Specific matters investigated over the two-year period were: Structures; Policies; Service range and level; Relationships. The study found evidence that ERA had a significant effect during this period on library support services to schools, but that other influences on change were at work, most notably the community charge and its repercussions. All the School Library Services in the contact authorities changed between 1989 and 1991, although in different degrees, and it was observed that the effect of national legislation was being mediated by local cultures. The hypothesis that 'The Education Reform Act is leading to new perceptions of School Library Service effectiveness' was upheld, and factors making for effectiveness were identified.

Abstract:
In 1610, the Maya interpreter don Hernando Uz was accused of encouraging a rebellion against don Pedro Xiu, the Indigenous governor of Tekax, in Yucatán, New Spain. Building on the analysis of the trial, the chapter aims at distinguishing three categories of interpreters who provided services of cultural and linguistic mediation in the justice system of the Spanish empire: the General Interpreters officially appointed at the royal courts in the Americas, the Spanish governors’ personal interpreters, and the interpreters who sought informally to meet the Indigenous people’s needs for justice. I will show how thin the line between linguistic mediation and legal advice was, and how the concepts of trust and mistrust applied to the interpreters shaped the space where those professionals were required to act at court and, more broadly, in the vice-royal society.

Abstract:
AbstractAlgorithmic recommendations and rankings have become a key feature of the user experience offered by digital platforms. Recommender systems determine which information and options are prominently presented to users. While there is abundant technical literature on recommender systems, the topic has only recently attracted the attention of the European legislator. This chapter scrutinizes the emerging European regulatory framework for algorithmic rankings and recommendations in the platform economy with a specific focus on online retail platforms. Surveying the new rules for rankings and recommender systems in consumer contract law, unfair commercial practices law, and platform regulation, it identifies shortcomings and inconsistencies and highlights the need for coherence between the different regulatory regimes. The Digital Services Act could change the regulatory trajectory by introducing (albeit hesitantly and incompletely) a new regulatory model that shifts the focus from algorithmic transparency to algorithmic choice. More importantly, a choice-based approach to recommender governance and a market for third-party recommender systems (“RecommenderTech”) could also be facilitated by the new interoperability requirements introduced by the Digital Markets Act.

Abstract:
AbstractRecommender systems that support us in our everyday lives are becoming more precise and accurate in terms of the appropriateness of recommendations to users’ needs – with the result that the user often follows these recommendations. This is mainly due to the filtering methods and various algorithms used. In our paper, we will look specifically at the recommender systems on gaming platforms. These consist of different components: a shopping component, a streaming component and a social media component. The recommender systems of these components, when considered individually, have certain characteristics in terms of the machine learning and filtering methods used, which are mixed by combining them on one platform. As a result, it is unclear which of the information collected about the user at any time is lost and disappears into obscurity, and what information is used to generate recommendations. The frequently discussed “black box” problem exacerbates at this point and becomes a “black hole.” With the interests of platform users, platform operators, and software developers in mind, we examine the legal provisions that have been established to address this opaqueness: transparency obligations. Derived from the Digital Services Act and the Artificial Intelligence Act, we present various legally valid solutions to address the “black hole” problem and also lead them to practical suggestions for implementation.

Abstract:
AbstractThe following article deals with the topic of discrimination “by” a recommender system. Several reasons can create discriminating recommendations, especially the lack of diversity in training data, bias in training data or errors in the underlying modelling algorithm. The legal frame is still not sufficient to nudge developers or users to effectively avoid those discriminations, especially data protection law as enshrined in the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is not feasible to fight discrimination. The same applies for the EU Unfair Competition Law, that at least contains first considerations to allow an autonomous decision of the subjects involved to know about possible forms of discrimination. Furthermore, with the Digital Service Act (DSA) and the AI Act (AIA) there are first steps into a direction that can inter alia tackle the problem. Most effectively seems a combination of regular monitoring and audit obligations and the development of an information model, supported by information by legal design, that allows an autonomous decision of all individuals using a recommender system.

This exploration of an academic library's outreach efforts presents a broad overview of a range of initiatives aimed at fostering interaction with library staff and resources. These efforts are put forth by a variety of contributors from throughout the library's staff without a management mandate or day-to-day control. Although these grassroots outreach efforts cost little to nothing, they still act to effectively inculcate a campus-wide perception of the library as a forward-thinking, inclusive and supportive institution while generating a welcoming atmosphere for diverse users. This atmosphere in turn fosters a learning and research community that sees the library as an important contributor to its success. This chapter describes the foundations for this type of outreach as well as giving examples of a number of innovative methods Albertsons Library at Boise State University uses to provide meaningful opportunities for its users to interact with staff, services and resources in a way that cultivates a feeling of inclusion in the community.

Abstract:
Artificial intelligence finds use in a multitude of fields, including healthcare, education, gaming, business, and library sciences. In the 1990s, the concept of implementing AI systems in libraries was first proposed. Both library employees and users can access knowledge-based services through these intelligent library systems. AI applications in library systems include subject indexing, shelf reading, collection development, technical services, reference services, and information retrieval systems, among other things. The development of AI programming has made the creation of a smart library both possible and imminent. This claim is supported by the fact that AI specialists and academics are developing intelligent systems that have the ability to think and act like librarians—library robots. AI will have a significant positive impact on library operations and services. It will also enhance and increase the importance of libraries in a rapidly evolving digital society. This chapter goes into great detail about the use of AI in libraries today and how it can help in the future.

Abstract:
Due to the continuous research and development activities taking place in almost all the disciplines, information overload and information explosion has occurred, which in turn poses a challenge to the user community to keep up with the knowledge in their discipline. The dynamic nature of information has forced the users to change the way of seeking information. Hence, there is an immediate need for the information professionals to update the services and facilities of the library. He/she should act as a ultimate search engine and satisfy the information needs of the users. This chapter highlights the changing approach to information by the user community in the present scenario and also provides the solutions to information professionals to tackle the information expectations of the users. This chapter has been written based on the observation of library users and the way they seek information for their business requirements and research and development activities.

Abstract:
The right to access government information has been a key element of sustainable development since the 1992 Rio Declaration. It is further recognized in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Therefore, governments are through open government initiatives making information available to the citizens. This is based on a supposition that everyone is information literate and yet this is not the case. Information literacy is defined as the ability to be able to act on the information that is provided to us citizens. Being able to locate, evaluate, and ethically use information is an ability that is crucial to the citizens' participation in society. It requires individuals to be in possession of a set of skills that can enable them to recognize when information is needed to be able to locate, evaluate, and use it effectively. Information institutions have been the gateways to knowledge, and hence, their resources and services have been crucial to the development of information literate, creative, and innovative societies. This study sought to establish how the information institutions in Sweden were promoting information literacy in accordance with Sustainable Development Goal 16 amidst the post-truth era. The author has applied a qualitative research methodology where interviews have been used as a data collecting technique.

Ali, Ibraheem, Thea Atwood, Renata Curty, Jimmy Ghaphery, Tim McGeary, Jennifer Muilenburg, and Judy Ruttenberg. Research Data Services: Partnerships. Association of Research Libraries and Canadian Association of Research Libraries, January 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.29242/report.rdspartnerships2022.

Full text
Abstract:
The Association of Research Libraries (ARL)/Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) Joint Task Force on Research Data Services (RDS) formed in 2020 with a two-fold purpose: (1) to demonstrate and commit to the roles research libraries have in stewarding research data and as part of institution-wide research support services and (2) to guide the development of resources for the ARL and CARL memberships in advancing their organizations as collaborative partners with respect to research data services in the context of FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) data principles and the US National Academies’ Open Science by Design framework. Research libraries will be successful in meeting these objectives if they act collectively and are deeply engaged with disciplinary communities. The task force formed three working groups of data practitioners, representing a wealth of expertise, to research the institutional landscape and policy environment in both the US and Canada. This report of the ARL/CARL RDS task force’s working group on partnerships highlights library RDS programs’ work with partners and stakeholders. The report provides a set of tools for libraries to use when assessing their RDS partnerships, including assessing partnerships using a partnership life cycle, defining the continuum of possible partnerships, and creating a catalog. Not all partnerships will last the entirety of a librarian’s career, and having clear parameters for when to continue or sunset a partnership can reduce ambiguity and free up resources. Recognizing the continuum of possible partnerships can provide the framework by which librarians can understand the nature of each group. From cyclical to seasonal to sporadic, understanding the needs of a type of partnership can help libraries frame their understanding and meet a group where they are. Finally, creating a catalog of partnerships can help libraries see the landscape of the organization, as well as areas for growth. This approach also aligns with OCLC’s 2020 report on Social Interoperability in Research Support: Cross-Campus Partnerships and the University Research Enterprise, which highlights the necessity of building and stewarding partnerships. Developing and providing services in a decentralized organization relies on the ability to build trusted relationships. These tools will help libraries achieve sustainable growth that is in concert with their partners, generating robust, clearly aligned initiatives that benefit all parties, their campuses, and their communities.

Full text
Abstract:
The Institute for Policy & Social Research (IPSR) at the University of Kansas received funding from the Economic Development Administration at the U.S. Department of Commerce under the CARES Act to study broadband access in the state of Kansas. To conduct this study, IPSR examined existing data, fielded our own survey of broadband speeds and access, conducted focus groups, and commissioned a chapter on the digital divide within the state of Kansas. The report discusses available data sources and introduces the speed test data collected by IPSR in order to map the broadband access landscape in Kansas. Along with speed tests, the Kansas broadband survey collected information regarding broadband access, adequacy, affordability and satisfaction. The survey data were enhanced by interviews and focus groups that allowed Kansans to share their struggles with internet access in their own words. The report also investigates digital equity using surveys and interviews conducted at public libraries that revealed the challenges faced by library patrons, including lack of digital access and literacy. The report that is summarized below indicates a rural-urban digital divide in terms of access, affordability, and satisfaction with broadband services. The data in this report indicate that up to 1,000,000 Kansans live in regions that lack access to highspeed broadband services, now considered to be 100 megabits per second (Mbps) download and 20 Mbps upload (100/20). Close to half of survey respondents (46%) report dissatisfaction with broadband services.

Walker, Philip. Library Impact Practice Brief: Assessing Library Information Services and Demonstrating Value through the Tailored Design Method. Association of Research Libraries, November 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.29242/report.vanderbilt2022.

Full text
Abstract:
Demonstrating the value of a biomedical library can be a daunting and somewhat ineffective task. The current literature base contains many articles attempting to achieve this goal by analyzing the collections through resource usage and citation analysis. However, with competing budgets across university campuses, it has become essential to investigate and develop methods in which libraries can correlate collections and services as it relates to their role as a partner across the scholarly, education, and service missions of our institutions. This practice brief discusses various methods and strategies in which the Annette and Irwin Eskind Family Biomedical Library and Learning Center sought to identify, compile, analyze, and disseminate relevant data to demonstrate its impact or added value to the research enterprise at Vanderbilt University and Vanderbilt University Medical Center. This work was done as part of the library’s participation in the ARL Research Library Impact Framework initiative.

Lo, Leo S., and Cynthia Hudson Vitale. Evolving AI Strategies in Libraries: Insights from Two Polls of ARL Member Representatives over Nine Months. Association of Research Libraries, March 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.29242/report.aipolls2023.

Full text
Abstract:
The onset of new, more accessible, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies marks a significant turning point for libraries, ushering in a period rich with both unparalleled opportunities and complex challenges. In this era of swift technological transformation, libraries stand at a critical intersection. To effectively chart this transition, two quick polls were conducted among members of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL). The first poll, which ran in April 2023, provided an initial snapshot of the AI landscape in libraries. The second poll, carried out in December 2023, continued this inquiry, offering a comparative perspective on the evolving dynamics of AI use and possibilities in library services. This study analyzes and juxtaposes the outcomes of these two surveys to better understand how library leaders are managing the complexities of integrating AI into their operations and services. It specifically seeks to capture changing perspectives on the potential impact of AI, assess the extent of AI exploration and implementation within libraries, and identify AI applications relevant to the current library environment. The insights derived from this comparative analysis shed light on the role of libraries in an increasingly AI-driven era, providing strategic directions and highlighting practices in research libraries.
