Abstract:
Usability testing is a technique for identifying difficulty that individuals may have using a product. Usability tests of the Washington State University (WSU) Libraries’ online public access catalog (OPAC), Article Indexes, Full Text, More, and Other Library Catalogs sections revealed problem areas. A task force used test findings to recommend solutions that led to the participation of the working group involved in designing search screens, the libraries’ User Education Department, and Innovative Interfaces Inc., the OPAC vendor. Solutions are currently being implemented.

Abstract:
Like most of their colleagues in other branches of the profession, special collections librarians often act as teachers, informally with individual users or formally as leaders of classes. But because of the preservation and security needs of the rare books and manuscripts under their care, special collections librarians must take on the additional roles of interpreter, impresario, advocate, and cheerleader. Fragile and valuable materials not browsable by the casual user must be showcased and interpreted through exhibitions and catalogs; faculty and students must be proselytized about the valu

Abstract:
Speech-language clinicians working in a school setting are some of the busiest people I know. They see a full caseload of children with a variety of communication disorders, keep data for each session, schedule diagnostic sessions, plan and prepare for therapy, meet with parents and school staff, deal with tons of paperwork (IEPs, reports, maybe billing for services), pore over catalogs to order supplies, register for continuing education to maintain licensure and certification, serve on committees, and sometimes even help with lunch room and playground duty. Added to all of that is a requirem

Abstract:
With the advances in Internet technologies, online education is fast gaining ground as an extension to traditional education. Webcast allows lectures conducted on campus to be viewed by students located at remote sites by streaming the audio and video content over Internet Protocol (IP) networks. However when used alone, webcast does not provide the form of user-to-user interaction that is so important in education. This article presents a collaboration system that can be used to facilitate interaction among users in a live webcast environment. The collaboration system supports real-time commu

This paper explores the benefits of establishing item-specific terms for General Material Designations (GMDs) for library consortia implementing Resource Description and Access (RDA). While RDA includes a new approach towards the description and categorization of an item’s physical medium through the assignment of content, media, and carrier types (CMCs), thus replacing the GMD, libraries may still benefit from GMD retention in their online catalogs to help support user tasks and help contextualize CMC information.

This article examines the linguistic structure of folksonomy tags collected over a thirty-day period from the daily tag logs of Del.icio.us, Furl, and Technorati. The tags were evaluated against the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) guidelines for the construction of controlled vocabularies. The results indicate that the tags correspond closely to the NISO guidelines pertaining to types of concepts expressed, the predominance of single terms and nouns, and the use of recognized spelling.
