Esta dissertação investiga a contribuição da biblioteca escolar para a formação do aluno do ensino básico, visando a sua autonomia para uso da biblioteca universitária. Como espaço de aprendizagem, a biblioteca da escola deve estar sustentada na proposta pedagógica que norteia a prática desenvolvida nessa unidade de informação. O planejamento dessa proposta está centrado nas ações e atividades que a biblioteca desenvolve junto com os professores para a formação desse aluno. O universo da pesquisa abrange a Universidade Federal da Bahia; a população-alvo são os concluintes dos cursos de biblioteconomia e pedagogia, que poderão atuar em bibliotecas escolares e em salas de aula, respectivamente, tendo a biblioteca como espaço de aprendizagem, na amostragem foram selecionados 14 concluintes do curso de biblioteconomia e 48 do curso de pedagogia de 2011.2. O instrumento de pesquisa usado para a coleta de dados foi o questionário semiestruturado. Para os procedimentos da análise dos dados, optou-se pelo método de análise de conteúdo por permitir a interpretação das respostas ao questionário, através da categorização desses dados. Assim, foram criadas 5 categorias: 1) Biblioteca na escola; 2) Biblioteca escolar e formação do aluno-usuário; 3) Frequência à biblioteca escolar para autonomia na biblioteca universitária; 4) Ações da biblioteca escolar para autonomia do aluno na biblioteca universitária; 5) Trabalho e/ou estágio no ambiente escolar. Nas categorias 1, 2 e 5 foram estabelecidas subcategorias para aprimorar a interpretação dos conteúdos. Na análise, buscou-se identificar a existência da biblioteca escolar no período da educação básica dos sujeitos da pesquisa, observando a que rede de ensino a escola pertencia – pública ou particular –, com o interesse de confirmar a presença da biblioteca nessas instituições de ensino e analisar as ações desenvolvidas para a formação desses sujeitos, bem como sua contribuição para a autonomia do aluno na biblioteca universitária. Os resultados apresentados demonstram uma incipiente contribuição da biblioteca escolar na formação do aluno, fato que se reflete na sua restrita autonomia para o uso da biblioteca universitária.
ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the contribution of school libraries in students education background, aiming their autonomy to the use of the university library. As a learning center, the school library must be considered in the pedagogical proposal that leads the developed practicum in this information unity. This proposal planning is centered in actions and activities that library and teachers develop towards the students education background. The research universe includes the Federal University of Bahia State; the target-population are librarianship and pedagogy seniors, who would be able to work, respectively, in school libraries and classrooms , focusing on library as a learning Center, as for the research sampling, it was selected 14 seniors of librarianship major and 48 of pedagogy major graduating in 2011.2. The used research instrument for data collecting was the semi structured questionnaire. For the data analysis proceedings, It was chosen the analysis of content thus it permits the questionnaire answers to be interpreted through data categorizing. So 5 categories were created: 1) Library in school 2) School library and the library-user student education background 3) Library attendance towards autonomy in the university library 4) School library actions towards the students autonomy in the university library 5) Working and/or interning in the school environment. In categories 1, 2 and 5, subcategories were established for majoring the interpretation of contents. In the analysis, it was aimed to identify the school library presence in the interviewee’s basic education, considering to which school system he/she came from- whether the public one or the private one-, with the goal of confirming the library presence in those institutions and analyzing the developed actions for the education background of those people, as well as its contribution for the student’s autonomy in the university library. The showed results demonstrate an incipient school library contribution for the student’s education background, which is reflect of the restrict autonomy for the use of university libraries.

Full textAt the beginning of the 21st century the Spanish government launched the most important reading promotion campaign in the history of the country. The objective campaign, that still continues, is to correct the important deficiencies of the reading habits of the Spaniards and to guarantee the access to the information and knowledge society for every citizen. In the first part of the thesis, the author describes the historical reasons for the present reading deficiencies in the population. He also analyzes the most important studies about the reading habits in Spain. An investigation about the situation of the publishing world and its effects on the reading culture, and an account oft the law on Books, Reading and Libraries from 2007 helped to create the context in which the new efforts to improve the reading competence are taking place. In the second part of the work the author analyzes the most representative projects of reading promotion, that have been started from the central, but also from regional and municipal administrations, as well as from private initiators. The most important among these projects is the National Reading Promotion Plan. It was developed from the Spanish Ministry of Culture and has the function of an integration and reference point for all the local reading promotion actions in the country. The public presentation of this Plan in 2001 represented the beginning of a deep transformation process of the reading culture of the nation. As the libraries have always been indispensable centres for reading promotion, the last part of the thesis describes the development of the Spanish librarian system in the three last decades focusing special interest on the school and public libraries.

Full textThe purpose of this research was to investigate the use of Web 2.0 technologies by Library and Information Science (LIS) students at the University of the Western Cape (UWC). This research provided answers to the following questions: • Which Web 2.0 technologies are used mostly by LIS students? • What do LIS students use Web 2.0 technologies for? • How is the LIS curriculum crafted to include training on Web 2.0 technologies? • What benefits (gratifications) do LIS students derive from the use of Web 2.0 technologies? • Which Web 2.0 technologies are LIS students being taught? Blumer and Katz’s (1974) Uses and Gratification Theory which explains the reasons behind people’s use of Web 2.0 technologies was used to provide meaning to the research findings. A mixed methods case approach was used in this study and as a result, a questionnaire, content analysis and interviews were used to collect data. Findings of this study revealed that, between 72% and 97% of the LIS students do have accounts on the following Web 2.0 technologies: YouTube, Skype, Google Apps, WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook. It has been highlighted in this research that LIS students use Web 2.0 technologies for both academic and general purposes. Over 80% of the LIS students use Web 2.0 technologies for entertainment, keeping up-to-date, and meeting people as well as for communication with peers and lecturers. Analysis of the LIS Department’s curriculum documents, assignments as well as key informant interviews revealed that, while a module entitled "Web 2.0" does not exist, elements of Web 2.0 technologies are embedded in some of the LIS modules. The research results also showed that, between 89.4% and 96.5% of the LIS students either agreed or strongly agreed that Web 2.0 technologies plays a significant role in improving technology proficiency, extending learning beyond the classroom, providing a platform for entertainment, facilitating collaborative learning, improving knowledge sharing and collaboration, providing cheaper and efficient communication platforms, providing easier and faster access to information; and that a low level of complexity is needed to use Web 2.0 technologies (ease of use). Ninety five per cent of the LIS students indicated that they support the inclusion of Web 2.0 technologies in the LIS curriculum a sentiment also shared by five of the interviewed key informants. Based on the research findings the researcher has recommended that the LIS curriculum should be regularly renewed to address new trends and technologies.

The main service targets of a medical school library are the teaching staff and the students of the school. Moreover, the service goal of the library is to support the three major information needs of teaching, research and medical services. Along with the rise of the Internet, most of the medical school teachers and students obtain information mainly from Internet resources. However, all medical information must be accessible, authoritative, reliable, accurate and up-to-date. Hence, the construction of a medical school library website and the integration of resources and services are vitally important. In the research, the main focus was the investigation on the usability of Yang Ming University Library website. After the missions of the usability testing were produced by log analysis, the actual usability testing was conducted along with the think-aloud protocol. The subjects were asked to fill-in the System Usability Scale when the usability testing was completed. As qualitative and quantitative data were obtained using various usability evaluation methods, they were analyzed to understand the usage status and the usability issues of Yang Ming University Library website. Specific improvement suggestions were proposed in the end. The research results indicated that, the overall satisfaction the subjects had toward Yang Ming University Library website was around 60%. The 12 services often used by the subjects included: Service Number, User’s Guide, Library Catalog, Thesis, Audio-visual materials, Monthly New Arrivals, E-book Search, E-journal, University System of Taiwan, Interlibrary Loan, Service Setup Guide and List of Password. The usability issues of Yang Ming University Library website found were: 1. The labeling were difficult to understand; 2. The categories were difficult to differentiate; 3. The page layout was not organized in accordance with the priority order; 4. The font size was too small and the color contrast was not obvious; 5. The labeling were too colorful; 6. The website links were repeated many times and lacked links to essential contents. Based on the research result, five suggestions were proposed: 1. The construction of the website should be designed and planned in concert with the university curriculum; 2. The consistency of the page layout, label names and font design should be enhanced; 3. An internal search engine of the library content should be added; 4. The importance of library user education should be promoted; 5. The usability evaluation of the website should be carried on.

Accompanying the introduction of the era of a lifelong learning society is the development and diversification of university programs. As a consequence, the universities play an important role in adult education. Since the 1997 academic year, universities have transformed their evening programs into continuing and extension education programs. The purpose of these continuing and extension education programs is to provide more education opportunities for adults. This transforming process proved to be a landmark for adult education in Taiwan. The students who study in continuing and extension education programs tend to have some non-traditional university students'' characteristics. Their class schedules and learning characteristics are different from those who study in traditional academic programs. There are also some variances in individual factors, such as ages, marital status and occupations. The motive of this study is to find out whether these differences in characteristics result in different type of behaviors for these non-traditional students in their utilization of library resources. This study uses literature analysis to explore the characteristics and behaviors of non-traditional students, including adult students, part-time students, students who study in open universities and student in continuing and extension education programs, in utilizing library resources. It also analyzes the questionnaire responses from students in the Continuing and Extension Education School of Fu Jen Catholic University (Fu Jen) concerning their behavior in utilization of library resources. We hope this study can provide some suggestions to the libraries in Taiwan and Fu Jen Catholic University which will improve their service for non-traditional students. The findings of this study are discussed as follows: 1.Characteristics of the students of the Continuing and Extension Education School in Fu Jen in their utilization of libraries: (1)these students often go to libraries in Fu Jen during weekdays to seek information or other material; (2)these students tend to browse library websites, regardless of whether they are at home, at the library or at school. Most of these students have used the library websites of Fu Jen Catholic University. Their age will affect their opinions on the content of the websites; (3)these students have concerns about the safety of libraries at night. They also feel library hours are not convenient for them because some libraries are not open during the weekends and holidays. 2. Distance between home and libraries as well as library hours influence the timing and type of libraries non-traditional students utilized . They go to the libraries on campus and public libraries which are near home during the daytime, the evening they do not have classes, or weekends. 3.Employment status of non-traditional students does influence the type of libraries they choose, the timing they go to the libraries, and their opinions about library hours, service at the evening or on weekends. However, the employment status does not change their purpose of using libraries. 4.Age factor influences the behavior of using electronic resources for nontraditional students. Older non-traditional students seem to have more difficulty in using electronic resources than younger ones. Based on this study, we will make recommendations to the libraries in Taiwan, Fu Jen Catholic University and non-traditional students and hope the libraries can provide better services for these non-traditional students.

Collage library represents a unit of service, and is also a source of knowledge. It provides an individual space for all students and faculties to gain knowledge. Taking the tourism-related students from the Ming Chuan University (The MCU represents a comprehensive university) and the Kinmen Institute of Technology (The KMIT stands for a technical collage) for Examples, this study tries to understand the demands of library services and the behavior of information seeking between two groups from the aspects of courses’ requirements, gender, and educational background. Moreover, the analysis results serve as an improvement guideline for libraries to tailor its services to the user needs, and enhance the library functions in the digital era. This research chose tourism-related students from the MCU and the KIT as studying groups, and 381 effective questionnaires were collected. The SPSS, statistical software, was then utilized to do the next analysis. Finally, the conclusion was made as follows: 1. Understanding the use of libraries by the two groups of students from the MCU and the KMIT respectively. 2. Analyzing the differences of library using between the above two groups from the perspective of collage location (The MTU is located on Taiwan island, and the KMIT is on Kinmen island). 3. Understanding the demands of collage libraries for tourism-related students. Students from the MCU and the KIMT express specific demands and describe different services that need to be improved because of their educational backgrounds and school systems.In addition, the research analyzes the factor of gender to understand the demands of libraries, the purposes of libraries using, the wishing list of purchases, and the activities in order to increase the attending percentage.All of them vary by the viewpoints and fondness of male and female.

Full textIn areas such as health, the number of scientific publications is increasing due to the exponential advancement of science. These publications have the role of disseminating knowledge, which has an essential role in higher education institutions, such as nursing schools, both as research and investigations centres, and as responsible for the updated and multidisciplinary way health professionals are able to demonstrate an informed and validated practice. That’s where indexing has its fundamental role, justifying from knowing better the contribution of university libraries in access to information and documentation. For this purpose, this study aims to measure the consistency of indexing in libraries of nursing/ public health schools existing in Portugal. It was set to sample all nursing/public health schools (N = 21), which were examined in two different times. To proceed to the study of the indexing process an investigation was used. For the measurement of the consistency of indexing, we use the selection in their document databases and a document book of regular publication in the whole sample, comparing the terms used by different university libraries for the indexing of the same document. The results obtained with regard to indexing consistency were of 21.1% for periodic publication and 18.9% for the book, which in its totality makes a consistency of 20.9% allocated to libraries, a value we consider low, but that goes against the studies analyzed by Zunde and Dexter (1969) which highlight values between 10% to 80%, depending on these parameters on which indexing is performed and the consistency measure is used. With regard to the study of the indexing process, all hypotheses were rejected, so we can see that our dependent variable -consistency of indexing - does not change with factors such as training, document type, years of experience as an indexer, which opens other research paths, in order to find appropriate procedures for the increased consistency checked in this study.
