General reference databases are listed first which is followed by the repositories and digital libraries of individual countries and universities. It also provides information on the online availability of electronic theses in the library and information science through centrally-maintained digital repositories which not only ensure easy access and archiving of doctoral theses but will also help in raising the standard and quality of research.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Wikipedia, "A <b>thesis</b> or <b>dissertation</b> is a document submitted in support of candidature for an academic degree or professional qualification presenting the author's research and findings. In some contexts, the word "thesis" or a cognate is used for part of a bachelor's or master's course, while "dissertation" is normally applied to a doctorate, while in other contexts, the reverse is true. The term graduate thesis is sometimes used to refer to both master's theses and doctoral dissertations. The required complexity or quality of research of a thesis or dissertation can vary by country, university, or program, and the required minimum study period may thus vary significantly in duration."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Theses and dissertations are known to be the rich and unique source of information, often the only source of research work that does not find its way into various publication channels. Theses and dissertations remain an untapped and under-utilized asset, leading to unnecessary duplication and repetition.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>E-Theses and Dissertations (ETD)</b> store and provide access to theses and dissertations available in electronic form. This type of repository provides a platform for researchers to deposit their theses and dissertations and make it available to the entire scholarly community in open access. These repositories have the ability to capture, index store, disseminate and preserve electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) submitted by the researchers.<br />
<br />
<div>
This entry <b>Library and Information Science Dissertations and Theses</b> is expected to be the most comprehensive listing of sources of information on LIS dissertations and theses. It will enable LIS researchers with wider dissemination of information leading to improved referral and citation. It will not only bring more visibility and greater recognition to the researchers and their work but also help improve their rankings. It will be of immense help to the researchers in the task of literature search and review of related areas. Besides the literature reviews, the availability of comprehensive sources of LIS dissertations and thesis will give information on research studies already undertaken which will also help future researchers in identifying and formulating the topic of their research. It will eliminate the possibilities for researchers ending up pursuing a topic of research that has already been undertaken at the same or other universities.</div>

It will be a dynamic document embodying the collective experiences and wisdom of our community of practice and will consist of a framework, with guidance and examples of best practice, which can be shared across the cataloguing community. The Code will be a collaborative and inclusive project managed by a Cataloguing Ethics Steering Committee directing a number of Working Groups consisting of individuals drawn from diverse geographical, ethnic and library sectors.<br />

The research goal of eCataloger is on creating semantic services for artifacts. It uses the FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) framework to model the records using data elements and concepts from the MODS (Metadata Object Description Schema), MARC, and other current and developing cataloging and metadata standards. By using FRBR as the descriptive framework, an overarching goal of the eCataloger is realized by being able to produce valid and well-formed MODS and MARC xml documents for interchange with existing and legacy library electronic systems]</span></div>

value to be served in General Collection Reading Rooms. Spec Mat items must be
served in a reading room where additional security is available, currently the
Adams Reading Room. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

With the success of this initial project, LC entered into additional cooperative cataloging projects with many other institutions. The partners in cooperative cataloging efforts eventually developed the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC) to administer these projects, including the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO), the Bibliographic Cooperative Program (BIBCO), and the Cooperative Online Serials Program (CONSER). One of the missions of the LC Policy, Training and Cooperative Programs Division (PTCP) is to support bibliographic cooperation among cataloging institutions. The Cooperative Programs and Policy Section and the Cooperative Training and Policy Section assist the division by carrying out the team’s mission “to develop cooperative cataloging programs among the Library of Congress and libraries and related institutions in the national and international library communities; to provide direct service and clerical and technical support to those cooperative partners; and to coordinate cooperative cataloging activities of the Library of Congress.” Currently, over 900 institutions throughout the world, representing national, state, university, public, and special libraries, as well as museums, archives, and vendors, participate in one or more of these cooperative cataloging projects. NACO participants have contributed over 5.25 million name and series authority records alone since the inception of the program to the Library of Congress/NACO Authority File (LC/NAF). Both BIBCO and CONSER participants are also NACO members by virtue of the fact BIBCO and CONSER bibliographic records are subject to authority control. The NACO Participants’ Manual addresses NACO procedures for name authority records only and is to be used in conjunction with the appropriate authoritative documentation that is relevant to each section of the manual, including relevant documentation from the bibliographic utilities, OCLC and SkyRiver. The manual has been extensively revised and updated to reflect current practice. Examples used in the manual are not prescriptive of practice. Examples of past practice may still be found in MARC21 Format for Authority Data. </div>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">INTRODUCTION</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources, made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing. It provides physical or digital access to material and may be a physical building or room, or a virtual space, or both. A library's collection can include books, periodicals, newspapers, manuscripts, films, maps, prints, documents, microform, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases, and other formats. Libraries range in size from a few shelves of books to several million items. Sidney Sheldon perfectly describes: “Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination. They open up windows to the world and inspire us to explore and achieve, and contribute to improving our quality of life.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Laura Bush in her famous quote said: “I have found the most valuable thing in my wallet is my library card.” Visit your library, get your library card, and you’ll be able to borrow a print or electronic book, use free internet, or attend a course that will improve your digital skills.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The libraries of the world are under threat. Jon Bing makes a point “To ask why we need libraries at all, when there is so much information available elsewhere, is about as sensible as asking if roadmaps are necessary now that there are so very many roads.” Eleanor Crumblehulme says “Cutting libraries during a recession is like cutting hospitals during a plague.”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Libraries are essential in a process of giving citizens access to knowledge. In digital times they are needed more than ever before. In times of the internet, everyone can visit a library without leaving home. It’s just a matter of opening a library website, and you can not only borrow an ebook but also ask the librarian an online question. Most importantly, however, libraries are the places where you can expect smart and clear answers to even the most difficult questions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now that we have discussed the importance of libraries, it’s time to through some light on the importance of the role of librarians. Jarrett J. Krosoczka says “It is an awfully sad misconception that librarians simply check books in and out ...” A librarian is a person who is in charge of or works professionally in a library and is responsible for its management and services. The librarian takes care of the library and its resources. Typical job of a librarian includes managing collection development and acquisitions, cataloging, collections management, circulation, and providing a range of services, such as reference, information, instruction, and training services, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The increasing role of technology in libraries has a significant impact on the changing roles of librarians. A 21st-century librarian is required to be very much updated with technological changes. New age librarians are making greater use of emerging technologies in the library management and services to make it more popular and useful among the patrons. According to Neil Gaiman “Google can bring you back 100,000 answers, a librarian can bring you back the right one.” New age librarians are not mere bookworms, they are high-tech information professionals, and clever communicators, helping patrons dive in the oceans of information available in books and digital records. Librarians are teachers, problem solvers, innovators, collaborators, leaders, and learners.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So now let us enjoy and appreciate these famous quotes describing why libraries and cataloging important and librarians and catalogers indispensable (in no qualitative order).</div>

This is work that now takes a bit longer to do - but in the long run we are making better records.

Best inspirational and motivational quotes for personality development, personal development, and self-improvement of librarians and information professionals. These are my personal favorite quotes which have made a great impact on me and my personality as a librarian. Initially, I intended to make this article as a collection of quotes on libraries, librarians, and library and information science only, but it was when I was reading the book <i>Hit Refresh</i> by Satya Nadella, that I decided to collect these quotes and present to the library and information professionals to empower and enable them to become better persons and professionals. Below some quotes, I have included a section "My Take" which is my perspective, opinion, or idea(s) about that quote when it is seen with reference to the development of Library and Information Science, Librarianship Studies & Information Technology.<br />

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span> <b>Chain Indexing</b> or <b>Chain Procedure</b> is a mechanical method to derive subject index entries or subject headings from the class number of the document. It was developed by Dr. S.R. Ranganathan. He first mentioned this in his book “Theory of Library Catalogue” in 1938.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In Chain Procedure, the indexer or cataloguer is supposed to start from where the classifier has left. No duplication of work is to be done. He/she has to derive subject headings or class index entries from the digit by digit interpretation of the class number of the document in the reverse direction, to provide the alphabetical approach to the subject of the document.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ranganathan designed this new method of deriving verbal subject heading in 1934 to provide the subject approach to documents through the alphabetical part of a classified catalog. This method was distinctly different from the enumerated subject heading systems like Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) or Sears List of Subject Headings (SLSH). He discerned that classification and subject indexing were two sides of the same coin. Classifying a document is the translation of its specific subject into an artificial language of ordinal numbers which results in the formation of a class number linking together all the isolate ideas in the form of a chain. This chain of class numbers is retranslated into its verbal equivalent to formulate a subject heading that represents the subject contents of the document. The class number itself is the result of subject analysis of a document into its facet ideas and linked together by a set of indicator digits, particularly when a classification system like <i>Colon Classification</i> is used for the purpose. As this chain is used for deriving subject entries on the basis of a set of rules and procedures, this new system was called ‘Chain Procedure’. This approach inspired in many other models of subject indexing developed afterward, based upon classificatory principles and postulates.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chain Indexing was originally intended for use with <i>Colon Classification</i>. However, it may be applied to any scheme of classification whose notation follows a hierarchical pattern.</div>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">STEPS IN CHAIN INDEXING</span></b><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span> <span style="text-align: justify;">According to Bhattacharya, there are eleven steps involved in Chain Procedure:</span><br />
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Determination of the specific subject of the document.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Expressive name of the subject</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Kernel terms</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Analysed name of subject</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Transformed name of subject</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Standard terms</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Determination of links and construction of chain.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Determination of different kinds of links</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Derivation of subject headings</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Preparation of cross reference entries</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Arrangement.</li>
</ol>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Determination of specific subject of the document</span></b><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span> <span style="text-align: justify;">It is done with the help of the title of the document, its table of contents and by a careful perusal of the text. By analyzing the subject contents of a document one arrives at its specific subject.</span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Expressive name of the subject</span></b><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span> <span style="text-align: justify;">Naming the specific subject of the document expressively in the natural language.</span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Kernel terms</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Representation of the name of the specific subject in Kernel terms (fundamental components). It is done by removing all the auxiliary words from the title.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Analyzed name of the subject</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Determination of the category of each fundamental component according to a set of postulates and principles formulated for this purpose.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Transformed name of the subject</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Transforming of the analyzed name of subject by rearranging, if necessary, the fundamental components, according to a few additional postulates and principles formulated for the purpose of governing the syntax.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Standard terms</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Standardization of each term, in the transformed name of the subject, in accordance with the standard terms used in the preferred scheme of classification.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Determination of links and construction of chain</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Representation of class number in the form of a chain in which each link consists of two parts -- the class number and its translation in natural language. The class number and its translation is joined by “=” sign, and these signs are joined by downward arrows.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Determination of the different kinds of links</span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Determination of different kinds of links such as Sought Link (SL), False Link (FL), Unsought Link (USL) and Missing Link (ML).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
FL : A link is a false link if it ends with a connecting symbol or relation device, etc.<br />
<br />
USL : A link in which a user is not likely to approach a document.<br />
<br />
ML : A link in a chain-with-gap, corresponding to the missing isolate in the chain.<br />
<br />
SL : A link in which a user is likely to approach a document.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Derivation of subject heading</span></b><br />
<br />
Derivation of the subject heading from each of the sought links in the chain in a reverse rendering process.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Preparation of cross-reference entries</span></b><br />
<br />
In this step, subject reference entry is prepared for specific subject entries.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Arrangement</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #134f5c;"><br /></span></b> In this last step, all entries are merged and arranged in a single alphabetical sequence.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">EXAMPLE OF CHAIN INDEXING USING COLON CLASSIFICATION</span></b><br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></b> The document entitled ‘Macbeth’ by William Shakespeare, having class number O111,2J64,M will generate the following chain.<br />
<br />
O = Literature (SL)<br />
<br />
O1 = Indo-European literature (USL)<br />
<br />
O11 = Teutonic literature (USL)<br />
<br />
O111 = English literature (SL)<br />
<br />
O111, = (FL)<br />
<br />
O111,2 = English drama (SL)<br />
<br />
O111,2J64 = Shakespeare (SL)<br />
<br />
O111,2J64, = (FL)<br />
<br />
O111,2J64,M = Macbeth (SL)<br />
<br />
Corresponding to these five sought links, the following subject heading or class index entries will be generated by the above chain:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
DRAMA, ENGLISH = O111,2</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
ENGLISH LITERATURE = O111</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
LITERATURE = O</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
MACBETH, SHAKESPEARE (William) (1564) = O111,2J64,M</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
SHAKESPEARE (William) (1564) = O111,2J64</div>
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">MERITS OF CHAIN INDEXING</span></b><br />
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;">This procedure, i.e., chain indexing can be applied with ease to any classification scheme whose notational symbols indicate the subordination of each step of division e.g. Colon Classification (CC), Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), Library of Congress Classification (LCC), etc.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Chain indexing saves the time of the indexer, as he makes use of the class number provided by the classifier, thus, avoiding duplication of work, in analyzing the document and the formulation of class number.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Chain indexing provides alternative approaches through reverse rendering to its classified file.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">As chain procedure is based on the structure of the classification scheme and on the terminology found in the schedules, its operation is speedy and semi-mechanical.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Chain procedure is economical, as it drops each term after it has been indexed, thus, avoiding the permutation of component terms.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">In the case of chain indexing, only one index heading with complete subject formulation is prepared for a specific document. Other entries are prepared by the successive dropping of terms serve a successfully larger number of specific subjects. This provides the facility for generic as well as specific searches.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Chain procedure is amenable to computerization. Programs have been successfully written to generate subject headings both from class numbers and feature headings following the reverse rendering method.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Chain procedure may be used to derive indexes to classification schemes and books. Similarly, it may be used in formulating headings necessary for guide cards on catalogue, stock room guides, shelf guides, etc., in a systematic way.</li>
</ol>
<b><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">DEMERITS OF CHAIN INDEXING</span></b><br />
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;">It is totally dependent on a scheme of classification, as a result, it tends to suffer demerits related to the scheme of classification automatically.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The entries prepared through chain indexing has only one specific entry, others are all broad entries.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">In chain indexing, sometimes a step of a division may go unrepresented, by a further digit of the class number. This creates the problem of the missing chain.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Reverse rendering of terms, while preparing the entries is confusing to the user.</li>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">CONCLUSION</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chain indexing was first used by the Madras University Library in 1936. It has been widely accepted and used by <i>British National Bibliography (BNB)</i> from 1950-1970, LISA is based on Chain Indexing, <i>Indian National Bibliography (INB)</i> has been practicing chain indexing since 1958. Documentation Research & Training Centre (DRTC) has lately found that chain procedure is fully amenable to computerization. Programs have been written to generate subject heading from class numbers following reverse rendering method.</div>

<b>Library Classification</b> or Classification or Book Classification or Bibliographic Classification is the process of arranging, grouping, coding, and organizing books and other library materials (e.g. serials, sound recordings, moving images, cartographic materials, manuscripts, computer files, e-resources etc.) on shelves or entries of a catalog, bibliography, and index according to their subject in a systematic, logical, and helpful order by way of assigning them call numbers using a library classification system, so that users can find them as quickly and easily as possible. The call number serves a dual purpose: it determines the place of a book on the shelf and colocates books on the same topic next to each other.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Call number consists of a class number providing class designation, a book number providing author representation, and a collection number denoting the collection to which it belongs. In ordinary classification, we deal with the arrangement of ideas and the objects in a systematic order. But in library classification, we are concerned with documents, and the aim is to arrange these in the most helpful and permanent order. Similar to knowledge classification systems, bibliographic classification systems group entities that are similar and related together typically arranged in a hierarchical tree-type structure (assuming non-faceted system; a faceted classification system allows the assignment of multiple classifications to an object, enabling the classifications to be ordered in multiple ways). It requires a detailed scheme of classification in which knowledge is divided into broad areas, which are again subdivided into subjects or main classes. Main classes are further divided into sub-classes, and sub-classes are divided into and divisions and so on. In this way classification proceeds from the general to the specific dividing and categorizing concepts into logically hierarchical classes based on the characteristics they have in common and those that distinguish them. Levels of hierarchy in the classification schedules are indicated by indentions. Each subject, classes, sub-classes, and its divisions are represented by a system of numerals or letters or a combination of both called Notation. It is this notation that helps in the arrangement of documents on the shelves. Classification provides a logical approach to the arrangement of documentary materials. Use of classification enables library users to browse on shelves to find its materials and also additional items on the same or related subjects, and, to find out what documents the library has on a certain subject. Library classification systems are one of the two methods used to facilitate subject access to library materials. The other is alphabetical indexing languages such as thesauri and subject headings list. Classification organizes knowledge and library materials into a systematic order according to their subject content, while subject headings provide access to documents through vocabulary terms. Thesauri or subject headings can assign multiple terms to the same document, but in classification, each document can only be placed in one class. So we can say that classification number assigned to a document using as library classification scheme provides an exact location for an item on the shelves. The cataloger assigns a classification, or call number, in correlation with the subject headings. Some of the popular classification systems are the Library of Congress Classification (LCC), the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) the Bliss Bibliographic Classification (BC), the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC), Cutter Expansive Classification, and the Colon Classification (CC); DDC and LCC being the most popular ones. DDC is the most widely used classification system throughout the world. LCC is highly enumerative by listing all subjects of the past, the present, and the anticipatable future and its notation is enormously hospitable and expandable. LCC is also the most continuously revised classification scheme. The Classification Web database of LCC is updated daily incorporating new additions and changes proposed by catalogers and approved by the editorial committee of LCC. In the United States, academic libraries generally use Library of Congress Classification and public and school libraries prefer to use the Dewey Decimal Classification. Major libraries now use web versions of LCC and DDC to classify their materials. The electronic version of LCC is available online as Classification Web (http://classificationweb.net) and an electronic version of DDC is available online as WebDewey (http://dewey.org/webdewey).<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Janis L. Young and Daniel N. Joudrey¹ describe Library Classification as below:</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;"><b>What is Classification?</b></span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;">The use of a system of notations or symbols to categorize the contents of resources</span></li>
<ul>
<li>Used to provide logical shelf arrangement (i.e., call numbers), but also can be useful in searching the catalog</li>
<li>Organized by disciplines, they begin with broad general topics which give way to more specific subtopics</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
According to Joudrey, Taylor & Miller, classification is “the placing of subjects into categories.”<br />
<br />
It is the process of determining where a resource fits within the classification’s structure, and then<br />
assigning the notation that most closely approximates the aboutness of the resource.<br />
<br />
Classification is more than finding the right notation or category; it is about relationships. It provides a logical arrangement of topics and subtopics from the general to the specific that can be translated into a linear arrangement for materials in a library. Classification traditionally provides formal, orderly access to the shelves, but it is also a mechanism by which to collocate materials in the catalog. It’s what makes browsing possible.<br />

The principles of library classification are the fundamental rules and guidelines that govern the organization of library materials. Here are some of the key principles:</span></div><div><br /></div><div>1. <b>Clarity and consistency</b>: The classification system should be clear and easy to understand, and should use consistent rules and principles.</div><div><br /></div><div>2. <b>Hierarchical organization</b>: Materials should be arranged in a hierarchical order, with general categories at the top and specific subcategories at the bottom.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. <b>Logical organization</b>: The classification system should reflect the logical relationships between subjects and topics.</div><div><br /></div><div>4. <b>Exhaustiveness</b>: The system should be comprehensive enough to cover all possible subjects and topics, while also avoiding duplication and overlap.</div><div><br /></div><div>5. <b>Specificity</b>: The system should allow for a precise and specific classification of materials.</div><div><br /></div><div>6. <b>Flexibility</b>: The system should be flexible enough to accommodate changes and new additions to the collection.</div><div><br /></div><div>7. <b>Accessibility</b>: The system should be designed to facilitate easy retrieval and use of materials by library users.</div><div><br /></div><div>8. <b>User-centered</b>: The classification system should be designed with the needs of library users in mind, rather than the preferences of library staff or administrators.</div><div><br /></div><div>Overall, the principles of library classification are aimed at making library materials more easily accessible and usable for library users, while also facilitating efficient management and organization of the library collection.</div></div><div><br /></div>
<i>Another way of explaining the principles of library classification is given below:</i></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div><span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">Library classification is the process of organizing library resources systematically. The principles of library classification include:</span></div><div><br /></div><div>1. <b>Subject Approach</b>: If classification helps in the use of books, a method of systematic arrangement is adopted, whether it is logical or not.</div><div><br /></div><div>2. <b>Porphyry’s Tree</b>: Knowledge is totality, and classification starts from knowledge.</div><div><br /></div><div>3. <b>Extension and Intention</b>: The classification should be based on the extension and intention of the subject.</div><div><br /></div><div>4. <b>Inductive and Deductive Nature of Classification</b>: The classification should be based on both inductive and deductive methods.</div><div><br /></div><div>5. <b>Aristotelian Pattern</b>: The classification should be based on the Aristotelian pattern of division.</div><div><br /></div><div>6. <b>Hierarchical Structure of Classification</b>: The classification should be based on a hierarchical structure.</div><br />

Topic vs. place.</span> Within a given topical area, if a choice must be made between classing by specific subject and classing by place, prefer classification by the subject, unless instructions to the contrary exist or unless precedent, as reflected in the shelflist, clearly indicates otherwise. If no clear precedent exists, record any decision to class by place rather than by subject by adding notes of the following type to the schedule:</div><div class="Indent--25----16" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 18pt;"><span class="Italics" style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;">Under the topical caption:</span><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE9"></a></div><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE9"></a><div class="Indent--5----16" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 36pt;"><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE9" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE9"></a>Class works limited to a specific geographic area in [...]</div><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE10" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE10" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE10"></a><div class="Indent--25----16" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 18pt;"><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE10" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE10" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE10"><span class="Italics" style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;"></span></a>Under the caption "By region or country":</div><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE11" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE11" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE11"></a><div class="Indent--5----16" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 36pt;"><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE11" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE11" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE11"></a>Including specific topics</div><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE12" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE12" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px;" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE12"></a><div class="A----16" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt;"><a id="scmclslUNDERSCORE12" name="scmclslUNDERSCORE12" title="scmclslUNDERSCORE12"><span class="Bold-Italics" style="font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"></span></a>4.

There are a variety of descriptive research methods available, the nature of the question that needs to be answered drives which method is used. It does not answer questions about how/when/why the characteristics occurred. </p><p>Descriptive research aims to accurately and systematically describe a population, situation or phenomenon. It can answer what, where, when and how questions, but not why questions.</p><p>Descriptive research involves gathering data that describe events and then organizes, tabulates, depicts and describes the data collection.(Glass and Hopkins)</p><div><br /></div><p><b>What is Descriptive Research Method?</b></p><p>A descriptive study is one in which information is collected without changing the environment ( i.e. nothing is manipulated).</p><p>Focuses on ‘what’ rather than ‘Why’</p><p>It is used to obtain information concerning the current status of the phenomena to describe “what exists” with respect to variable or education in a situation.</p><p>Present trends, beliefs, public mind, their viewpoint and attitudes, their effects or development of new trends are described.</p><p>It is done without influencing the subjects.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Nature of Descriptive Research</b></p><p>Descriptive studies are more than just a collection of data; they involve measurement, classification, comparison, and interpretation.</p><p>Collect and provide three types of information:</p><p></p><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>of what exists with respect to variables of conditions in a situation;</li><li>of what we want by identifying standards of norms with which to compare the present conditions or what experts consider to be desirable;</li><li>of how to achieve goals by exploring possible ways and means on the basis of the experience of others or the opinions of experts.</li></ol><div><br /></div><div><b>Steps of Descriptive Research</b></div><div><br /></div><div>The activities of researchers in descriptive studies are:</div><p></p><div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Identify and define their problem;</li><li>State their objectives and hypotheses;</li><li>List the assumptions upon which their hypotheses and procedures are based;</li><li>Choose appropriate subjects and source materials;</li><li>Select or construct tools for collecting data;</li><li>Specify categories of data that are relevant for the purpose of the study, and capable of brining out significant similarities, differences, or relationships</li><li>Describe, analyse, and interpret their data in clear and precise terms;</li><li>Draw significant and meaningful conclusions.</li></ul></div></div><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

They include:</div><div><br /></div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>School Surveys</b> : used to gather data concerned with internal or external characteristics of a school system</li><li><b>Job Analysis</b> : used to gather information to be used in structuring a training program for a particular job.</li><li><b>Public Opinion Surveys</b> : used to enhance the decision making process by governmental officials.</li><li><b>Social/Community Surveys</b> : used to gather data concerned with internal or external characteristics of a community.</li></ul></div></div><div><br /></div><p><b>Interrelationship Studies</b></p><p>Some researcher in the field of education do not merely gather facts to obtain an accurate description of existing phenomena; they attempt to trace relationships between facts that will provide deeper insight into the phenomena. The studies that endeavour to discover relationship between facts of the existing phenomena are called as interrelationship studies.</p><p>These include: </p><p>1. Case Studies</p><p>2. Ex-post-facto or Casual-comparative Studies</p><p>3. Correlation and prediction Studies</p><p>4. Cross-cultural and Comparative Studies </p><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Case Studies</b></div><div><br /></div><div><div>Probes in depth into an individual situation or personality with the intent of diagnosing a particular condition and recommending corrective measures.</div><div><br /></div><div>Case studies are undertaken to examine a social unit as a whole and in depth. The unit may be a person, a programme, an event, a process, an activity, a social group, a family, an institution, or a community. The basic question in a case study is: “what are the characteristics of this single case or of these comparison?” since the roots of the case study are interdisciplinary, many different concepts and theories are used to describe explain the case. It classified into three types:</div><div><br /></div><div><i><b>1. Intrinsic Case Study:</b></i> the objective is to understand the particulars of the case.</div><div><b><i>2. Instrumental Case Study:</i></b> the objective is to understand something more general than the case.</div><div><b><i>3. Collective Case Study:</i></b> The objective is to study and compare multiple cases in a single research study.</div><div><br /></div><div>Case studies are used in the fields of social sciences, law, education, psychology and medicine because of multidisciplinary roots.</div></div><div><br /></div><p><br /></p><p><b>Ex-post Facto or Casual Comparative Studies</b></p><p>In such cases, the aim of the researcher is to compare the likeness and differences among phenomena to discover what factors or circumstances seem to accompany or contribute to the occurrence of certain events, conditions or practices. The researcher attempts to explore not only what a phenomenon is like, but how and why it occurs.</p><p>These study are based upon John Stuart Mill’s method of discovering casual relationships. Mill’s method of Agreement states that, “ If two or more instances of the phenomenon under investigation have only one circumstance in the circumstance in which alone all the instances agree, is the cause of the given phenomenon.”</p><p>Casual- comparative or ex post facto method of research is useful in the situations when the experimental method is impractical or costly in time, money, and effort. In some situation, ethical consideration may prevent to use experimentation as a method of investigation.(Van Dalen)</p><div><br /></div><p><b>Correlation and Prediction Studies</b></p><p>Determine the extent of relationship existing between variables.</p><p>To obtain description of existing phenomenon and enable a researcher to ascertain the extent to which variations in one variable are associated with variations in another.</p><p>The correlation technique will help him to test his hypothesis about the relationship between these two variables as well as to assess the magnitude of the relationship.</p><p>It involves the collection of two or more sets of measurement on a sample of subjects and computation of the coefficient of correlation between these sets of measurements. The direction of the relationships may be positive or negative; the degree of relationship between the variables may vary from perfect, to high, to average, to no relationships; the relationship may be linear or curvilinear</p><div><br /></div><p><b>Cross-cultural and Comparative Studies</b></p><p>To make explicit comparisons of a number of societies.</p><p>Contribution to our understanding of educational and social phenomena, for they seek to demonstrate whether findings concerning human behaviour are valid for all human beings or are confined to one culture.</p><p>A review of research in comparative education reveals that a researcher have compared School- state relationship; educational reforms; problems and causes of wastage and stagnation; the accessibility of higher Education; plans for success of compulsory education; problem of caste, colour, religion and other forms of discrimination in education. A number of reports on the comprehensive comparative studies relating to literacy, Juvenile delinquency and education on various level have been published by UNESCO.</p><div><br /></div><p><b>Developmental Studies</b></p><p>Developmental studies are used for investigating the characteristics of children and the ways in which these characteristics change with growth and development. Such studies are concerned not only with the present status and interrelationship of phenomena but also with changes that take place as a function of time. Developmental studies may take three different forms:</p><p>1. Growth Studies</p><p>2. Follow-up Studies</p><p>3. Trend Studies</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Growth Studies</b></p><p>Growth studies are used to seek knowledge of the nature and rate of changes that take place in human organism. They are helpful to study when various aspect of growth among children are first observable, accelerate further, remain rather stationary, attained optimal development and decline.</p><p>Growth studies is studies can be either longitudinal or Cross-sectional.</p><p>Longitudinal studies follow the same subject a group of subject or an institution over a relatively long period of time it is a kind of extended case study as it involves a long lifespan of the same subject group or institution.</p><p>Cross sectional study when conducting cross sectional studies rather than following the same group of individual and taking their repeated measurement over a relatively long period of time. The random sample of individual of successive ages are selected and one set of measurement of different individual from which age level are taken as the basis for developing growth norms.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Follow-up Studies</b></p><div><div>Follow-up studies use the method which somewhat resemble the longitudinal method. Such studies aimed at investigating the subsequent development of individual or individuals after a specified treatment or condition. In case study approach, a researcher may be interested to follow-up a case in order to determine whether the treatment is successful. If the follow-up of a case indicates that it progress is unsatisfactory, a new diagnosis of the problem or problems is made. The technique of experimentation are employed to evaluate the success of treatment or condition.</div><div><br /></div><div>The studies by Terman and his associates (1947) are good example of follow-up studies. Their studies gifted subject in 1921-222. The subjects are studies after 6 years and again in 1936, 1940 and 1945. After the follow-up it was found that in comparison to other children the gifted children had better physical and mental health as adults and they mature into gifted and successful adults. </div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><p><b>Trend Studies</b></p><p>Trend studies are used to obtain and analyse social, economic, or political data to identify trends and to predict what is likely to take place in future. Some educational or other organization conduct such studies in order to plan effectively and to meet the demands that will be made on them in the future.</p><p>Trend studies are undertaken through documentary analysis or surveys at repeated intervals. Such survey help the researcher to study the rate and direction of changes and to use these trends to predict future status. Sometime trend studies may combine historical, documentary, and survey techniques.</p><p>For the sake of illustration, a researcher may conduct or examine studies of birth rate trends, the changing age structure of the population, enrolment of children in schools, the amount and direction of population mobility in order to determine when and where to provide new educational facilities in terms of school buildings, teacher training programmes, or recruitment of teachers.</p><div><br /></div><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div><div><hr /><br /></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>SEE ALSO</b></span></div><ul><li style="text-align: justify;"><b style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/p/research-methodology.html">Research Methodology</a> - </b><span style="font-family: inherit;">This page provides a list of articles and quizzes published in the Librarianship Studies & Information Technology blog about research, research methods, and research methodology in Library and Information Science Research.</span></li></ul><div><br /></div><ul></ul><div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><hr /><br /></div></div></div><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Research</b> is a systematic, exhaustive, and intensive investigation and study of a topic, often employing hypothesis and experimentation, to discover new knowledge, facts, theories, principles, and laws.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Research comprises "creative and systematic work undertaken to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of humans, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications." It is used to establish or confirm facts, reaffirm the results of previous work, solve new or existing problems, support theorems, or develop new theories.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
A research project may also be an expansion on past work in the field. Research projects can be used to develop further knowledge on a topic, or in the example of a school research project, they can be used to further a student's research prowess to prepare them for future jobs or reports. To test the validity of instruments, procedures, or experiments, research may replicate elements of prior projects or the project as a whole. The primary purposes of basic research (as opposed to applied research) are documentation, discovery, interpretation, or the research and development (R&D) of methods and systems for the advancement of human knowledge. Approaches to research depend on epistemologies, which vary considerably both within and between humanities and sciences. There are several forms of research: scientific, humanities, artistic, economic, social, business, marketing, practitioner research, life, technological, etc.¹</div>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">ETYMOLOGY</span></b><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
Aristotle, (384–322 BC), one of the early figures in the development of the scientific method. The word research is derived from the Middle French "recherche", which means "to go about seeking", the term itself being derived from the Old French term "recerchier" a compound word from "re-" + "cerchier", or "sercher", meaning 'search'. The earliest recorded use of the term was in 1577.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">DEFINITIONS</span></b><br />
<br />
Research has been defined in a number of different ways, and while there are similarities, there does not appear to be a single, all-encompassing definition that is embraced by all who engage in it.<br />
<br />
One definition of research is used by the OECD, "Any creative systematic activity undertaken in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society, and the use of this knowledge to devise new applications."<br />
<br />
Another definition of research is given by John W. Creswell, who states that "research is a process of steps used to collect and analyze information to increase our understanding of a topic or issue". It consists of three steps: pose a question, collect data to answer the question, and present an answer to the question.<br />
<br />
The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines research in more detail as "studious inquiry or examination; especially : investigation or experimentation aimed at the discovery and interpretation of facts, revision of accepted theories or laws in the light of new facts, or practical application of such new or revised theories or laws."<br />
<br />
Webster’s Third International Dictionary of the English Language defines research as“studious inquiry or examination, especially critical and exhaustive investigation or experimentation, having for its aim the discovery of new facts, and their correct interpretation, the revision of accepted conclusions, theories, or laws in the light of newly discovered facts, or practical applications of new or revised conclusions, theories, or laws.”<br />
<br />
According to the Random House Dictionary of the English Language, Research is a systematic inquiry into a subject in order to discover or revise facts, theories, etc.<br />
<br />
Busha in his publication Research Methods in Librarianship says that Research is “a systematic quest for knowledge that is characterized by disciplined enquiry. Efficient and effective approach to expand knowledge is the conduct of special, planned and structured investigations.”<br />
<br />
Ranganathan describes research to represent a critical and exhaustive investigation to discover new facts, to interpret them in the light of known ideas, theories and laws, to revive the current laws and theories in the light of the newly discovered facts to apply the conclusion to practical purpose.<br />
<br />
The substance of all these samples of definitions of research can be broadly summed up. To restate, the substantive phrases that stand out in all these definitions of research are that research is an activity as characterized below:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>An intellectual activity of a high order;</li>
<li>An investigation of a phenomenon, event or activity;</li>
<li>Aims to discover data and facts and their interpretations;</li>
<li>To arrive at conclusions to formulate new theories and laws or revise the already established theories and laws;</li>
<li>To communicate the results for peer review; and</li>
<li>To be accepted or rejected before adding this new knowledge to the already existing general pool of knowledge.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">NEED FOR AND PURPOSE OF RESEARCH</span></b><br />
<br />
As it has been mentioned earlier, knowledge is the primary and powerful resource that can provide scope for material prosperity of a society. New knowledge can be acquired only with the pursuit of research to extend the frontiers of knowledge. To accentuate the value of research, particularly with reference to scientific, technological and societal knowledge in the Indian context, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru eloquently articulated the Scientific Policy Resolution (SPR) of the Government of India in 1958.<br />
<br />
SPR states, ”the dominating feature of the contemporary world is the intense cultivation of science on a large scale and its application to meet a country’s requirements. It is this which for the first time in man’s history, has given the common man, in countries advanced in science, a standard of living and social and cultural amenities which were confined to a very small and privileged minority of the population. It is only through scientific approach and method and use of scientific knowledge that reasonable material and cultural amenities and services can be provided for every member of the community and it is out of the recognition of this possibility that the idea of the welfare state has grown.”<br />
<br />
The implications and policy directions of this farsighted SPR are quite clear, namely:<br />
<br />
Recognition of the vital role of science and technology for socio-economic development as a fundamental approach.<br />
<br />
Another important point of note, particularly beginning from the middle of the last century, is the increasing emphasis on the organising principle for all socio-economic development as a mix of science, technology and societal knowledge (STSK). This mix is a complex and multidimensional process, involving science, technology and societal knowledge. Societal knowledge combines political, economic, sociological, demographic, occupational, health, legal, regulatory and environment information and knowledge to comprise a complete knowledge universe. Again development is not merely cultivating physical resources, but also very much on building up human resources. Any imbalance in these development approaches weakens the overall capacity of a State to transform itself into a welfare state.<br />
<br />
As a result of this policy direction in India, in the last half a decade, a number of R & D complexes have been set up in science, technology, social sciences, and humanities. Educational and training institutions of higher learning, centers of advanced studies in many disciplines, acquisition and cultivation of technological and management skills through institutions of technology and management have also been established. Creation of learned societies and professional associations, publication of primary and secondary sources for dissemination of information and knowledge, information systems and services through libraries and information centers, consultancy organisations to bridge research and industrial development, multimedia communication through Internet and websites, and many others are undoubtedly oriented towards building up our knowledge base. Research plays the vital role in this process.<br />
<br />
For the business and industrial community world over, knowledge management has become a crucial area for combating competition. This is a big challenge, which has made them to invest very heavily on research on new knowledge creation. This trend is also visible in the Indian context although somewhat blurred at present.<br />
<br />
Accessibility and availability of information and knowledge through Internet is another very important development, supporting research activities.<br />
<br />
Thus the need for research is to build up an infrastructure for creating new knowledge to develop a knowledge reservoir. The application of this knowledge for socioeconomic and cultural development of a country to provide material well being of societies, is the purpose.<br />
<br />
<br />

According to Connaway: These include reduced funding opportunities because of more restricted national, international, and federal research initiatives; difficulty of articulating the scholarly value of the research based on a theoretical framework; not making the connection between the implications of research results and findings to the practical profession of LIS; limited relationships with scholars and research in other disciplines; the communication of research and outputs to traditional dissemination channels such as scholarly and professional presentations and publications and limited utilization of blogs, social media, and webinars; and inconsistent quality of the research data collection methods and analysis. These challenges are indeed numerous and represent a long list of grievances many have had with LIS research in the past. The past research record for LIS is not exemplary. It has been easier to find criticism than praise of library research. Zweizig called for improvements in research methodologies, especially as they relate to users of library services. Busha and Harter stated that “a large proportion of librarianship’s research has been uneven in quality and demonstrably weak methodologically.” Shaughnessy has been even more critical, contending that traditionally the field has permitted much of what is not actually research to be called research. Cuadra identified shortcomings in the purpose of LIS research. He noted “a failure to ask the right questions and to establish a proper theoretical foundation for later research or application.” More recently, Julien, Pecoskie, and Reed conducted a content analysis of information behavior research and found that there still is a gap between the quality and quantity of research published by practitioners and academic faculty. However, they also discovered signs of improvement, including “an increasingly interdisciplinarity reflected in the information behavior research literature. This suggests a maturing field and may encourage scholars in the area to expand their explorations of literature outside LIS for relevant work and theory.”²<br />

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">VALUE OF STUDYING RESEARCH METHODOLOGY FOR LIBRARY AND INFORMATION PROFESSIONALS</span></b><br />
<br />
The value of studying research methodology for students of library and information science⁴ is not only to conduct research in their professional field to contribute new knowledge but also be of great help and assistance to researchers in general.<br />
<br />
Clifford Hawkins and Marco Sorgi list a series of values from research as given below:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>A critical or scientific attitude is likely to be developed;</li>
<li>Research gives the chance to study a subject in depth;</li>
<li>A researcher gets to know how to use a library and its resources; and also effectively exploit all the secondary and tertiary resources in general, using the Internet facilities and other database networks;</li>
<li>A researcher knows to assess critically the literature in the subject of his study;</li>
<li>Research helps to develop special interests and skills in the researcher; and</li>
<li>Helps in understanding the attitude of others whether in routine interactions or research laboratories.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
Specifically for a library and information professional, research would enable them to offer a higher degree of efficient and thoughtful services to users in general and more particularly to fellow researchers.<br />
<br />
Research studies are pursued by students in most cases to earn higher academic degrees to enhance their chances to move to higher professional positions in their careers. In addition, it also prepares them to partake in research projects of research institutions where team research is carried out. Studies in research methodology would give opportunities to take part in discussions of research problems and to suggest appropriate methods to find solution to them. They are likely to get opportunities to help the research team in report writing, evaluate other research reports and suggest new problems for research in light of the experiences obtained in the course of time.<br />

I would appreciate it if you would let us know too!</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Question: How the Librarians Directory may help me in my career and professional development?</b></div><div><p><b>Answer: </b>The <i>Online Directory of Librarians and Library and Information Science and Services Professionals</i> serves some important benefits, some are given below:</p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li style="text-align: justify;">This list of librarians may help employers (e.g., libraries, information centers, etc.) in their search for LIS professionals who can be recruited in their library.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">This directory may be helpful to the LIS professionals and students in their job search. For example, if you have applied for a job in some library, you may search the library's name and librarians working there in the directory. Then you may contact the current employees of the library through their email addresses to get information that may be helpful for you in getting the job.</li><li style="text-align: justify;">The directory may be helpful for new students of Library and Information Science to connect with LIS professionals from their Library School or University. For instance, if I am going to study MLIS at the University College London, then with the help of this directory I can find out other people who have previously studied in the same university, and connect with them.</li></ul></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Question: Who can get an entry in the Librarians Directory?</b></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Answer:</b> Anyone whose work is related to libraries, information centers, and other similar institutions is in scope to be added to this directory. For example, if you are not a librarian but a vendor who supplies books, journals, databases, automation services, etc. to libraries, then you can also be included in this online directory.

the invention of books. When things are tough, we turn to books for comfort. As
the pages turn, books open a secret gateway to a previously unknown universe.
They give us solace when the going gets hard and work as an escape from
reality. Thanks to technological advancements, paper books are no longer the
only format available to readers worldwide. E-books have taken the world by a
storm since their inception and continue to enthral readers with various
advantages. But the ebook vs. printed book issue is far from finished, and it's
just getting more difficult as time goes on. It might be difficult to choose
one over the other, and the battle between digital and traditional books
appears to be far from over. But which is better, e-books or printed books?
Will future readers flip pages or swipe?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

provide readers with a wider range of options than they would get in a bookstore.
Books can be downloaded anywhere, anytime without going to the bookstore. They
are made available in the native language of the reader anywhere in the world.

the question pops up that are we still reading as attentively and thoroughly as
we did before the rise of digital texts and technologies? Why does text read on
a screen differ from text read on paper in our brains? The truth of such
concerns is questionable. Therefore, should we be concerned about dividing our
attention between pixels and ink? According to </span><span lang="EN"><a href="https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/reading-paper-screens/"><span style="background: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-highlight: white;">laboratory research,</span></a></span><span lang="EN" style="background: white; color: #282829; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-highlight: white;"> surveys, and consumer reviews, many people miss certain
tactile aspects of reading on paper that current screens and e-readers don't
fully replicate. More crucially, they don't allow people to easily navigate
extensive texts. Reading comprehension may be hindered as a result of
difficulty locating information on a map. In addition to draining our mental
resources while reading, screens may also make it more difficult to recall what
we've read after we've finished. Another part of the research examines people's
views on various forms of media. If they're not aware of it, many individuals
approach computers and tablets with a mindset that is less conducive to
learning than the mindset they bring to paper. Paper and ink may still be
superior when it comes to reading long passages of plain text. There are more
ways to read than text. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

According to Meryl Halls, managing director of the U.K. Booksellers'
Association, despite the fact that digital media has disrupted businesses such
as news publishing and the music industry, consumers still enjoy owning real
books. </span><span lang="EN" style="color: #282829; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 13.5pt; line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There is nothing like the scent, feel, and feeling of sitting

Digital book subscription businesses like Netflix and
Pandora have failed to convert bookworms into digital binge readers, and as a
result, several have folded. A tablet and Smartphone use has led to a decline
in sales of specialised e-reading devices. Young readers who are digital

metaphor can be applied to ebooks and printed books as well. It's just a matter

mobile phones and laptops that are already threatening to overtake the market.
The old-fashioned sheet and adhesive books, despite all of this, continue to
exert their impact in society. In the same way that digital notes cannot
replace handwritten pencil and paper ones, looking at words on a screen is just
not the same as reading them on paper. Nothing will ever replace the thrill of
holding a book made entirely of hand-lettered ink on pulp-pressed paper.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Note:</b> Kindly read carefully these guidelines, terms, and conditions to get approval for your article.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;"><b>How can you become a Librarianship Studies contributor?</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It took me six years of my professional blogging life to build LibrarianshipStudies.com. Because of this, I expect any contributor to maintaining the same or better level of authority and quality that I have built over time. So, let me lay down some tips and important points for you to consider when submitting your article to ensure that it gets accepted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Article Quality:</span></b> I take quality as one of the major considerations in accepting guest posts. To ensure your article gets published, write a very original piece that is written specifically for the LibrarianshipStudies.com audience.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Article Types:</span></b> We accept the different types of articles. <u>Basically, you can write anything and everything related to Library and Information Science (LIS) which must be interesting and informative for LIS professionals</u>. Some of the different types of articles we would be interested in are listed below:<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>1. Journal and Encylopedia Article</u>:</b> We mainly like to receive this type of article, i.e., similar to the one published in library science journals and encyclopedias. Check out how articles are written in the top Library and Information Science journals, magazines, and encyclopedias. You can also see how the articles are written in Encyclopaedia Britannica and Wikipedia. Accordingly, try to write an article that would be interesting and informative to LIS professionals.<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>2. Current LIS Student's Experience</u>:</b> Any current library & information science (LIS) student can request to write a guest post. You can write about your library school, its curriculum, why you chose to opt for this library school, its teachers, classes, scholarships available, and your overall LIS study program experience. We would be interested in knowing about your daily routine and your study style. In your post, you can include pictures of your library school, short videos of its building, classrooms, computer lab, departmental library, etc.<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>3. LIS Researcher's Work</u>:</b> Library and information science students and researchers are required to produce research work during their studies in the form of dissertations and theses in MLIS, M.Phil., and Ph.D. programs. Some researchers write an article which is the condensed form of their dissertation or thesis. If you have written an article that is based on your dissertation or thesis then you are most welcome to publish it in our blog. You can also publish your complete dissertation or thesis in <i>Librarianship Studies & Information Technology</i> to gain greater visibility for your research.<br />
<br />
<ul>
</ul>
<div>
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>4. Experience of Job Search and Interviews</u>:</b> After completing your studies and/or research in Library and Information Science, you go for the job search. For this, you may be required to take some tests and/or interviews. Our readers would be very interested in knowing about your experiences of job searches and interviews. So if you write about it then we will be happy to publish it in our blog. It will be very helpful for other LIS professionals.<br />
<br /></div>
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>5. Current LIS Professional Experience</u>:</b> If you are a librarian or working on any designation in some library, then we are interested in knowing about your work experience. No matter you are working in a small library, school library, or in a big university library, we are interested in knowing about them all. No matter if you are holding a very high designation or just responsible for other jobs such as barcode pasting, magnetic tape inserting, or else, every library job is important, and our readers are interested in knowing about all of them. Tell us how your library is organized, its workflow what database it offers, reference desk, circulation desk, serials section, acquisitions section, etc. Write about your experiences and we would be happy to publish that. Again it would more interesting to LIS professionals if you include pictures and videos with your article. Sometimes it may be against the policy of your library to write about it, in that case, you may do it without mentioning the name of your library, just explaining your workday and responsibilities, etc. For example, check this article: <a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2020/07/marjolein-van-der-vegt.html" target="_blank">Marjolein van der Vegt: A Librarian Tells Her Story</a><br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>6. A Day in the Life of a Librarian</u>:</b> You may describe your typical day as a librarian. For example, check this article: <a href="https://www.elsevier.com/librarians/article-news/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-librarian" target="_blank">A day in the life of a librarian</a>.<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>7. Articles Revision and Update</u>:</b> It is important to note most of the Librarianship Studies blog articles can be revised by the author as well as any other author at any point in time to keep the article updated with new information. This process is similar to the one followed by Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica to the ensure quality of articles and updates with the latest information. If the revision or update to some article is around 50% or more of the original article and it is more than 1000 words, then we will mention the name of the reviser in the author’s area, along with the name(s) of previous authors, otherwise, we will mention the information about the reviser in the “Acknowledgement” or "Note" area.<br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><u>8. Service Providers to Libraries</u>:</b> If you own a company and provide services to libraries, such as bookselling, serials purchase, database subscription, software subscription, library furniture supply, library building design, selling of RFID equipment, Integrated Library Systems (ILS), library automation, retro-conversion of bibliographic data, etc., then you can write about it in an article. We categorize such types of articles as promotional articles and we charge a very small fee for that.

<br /><span><a name='more'></a></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The <b>5 Laws of Library Science</b> is a theory proposed by S. R. Ranganathan in 1931, detailing the principles of operating a library system. Five laws of library science are called the set of norms, percepts, and guides to good practice in librarianship. Many librarians worldwide accept them as the foundations of their philosophy. Dr. S.R. Ranganathan conceived the Five Laws of Library Science in 1924. The statements embodying these laws were formulated in 1928. These laws were first published in Ranganathan's classic book entitled Five Laws of Library Science in 1931. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">These laws are:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div><b>1. <span>Books Are For Use</span><br />2. <span>Every Reader His/Her Book</span><br />3. <span>Every Book Its Reader</span><br />4. <span>Save The Time Of The Reader</span><br />5. <span>The Library Is A Growing Organism</span></b><br /><ul>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These laws of Library Science are the "fundamental laws" of Library Science. These are applicable to any problem in the areas of library science, library service, and library practice. These laws are like pot containing oceans. Prior to their enunciation, the subject of Library Science had no philosophy. These laws gave a philosophical base, guaranteeing an everlasting future to the subject of library science, the profession of librarianship, and the use of libraries. These laws have provided a scientific approach to the subject of library science. Even though S.R. Ranganathan proposed the Five Laws of Library Science before the advent of the digital age, they are still valid and equally relevant today.¹</div>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">FIRST LAW: BOOKS ARE FOR USE</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A book is a guide, a friend, and a philosopher. A writer writes a book to communicate his thoughts. The primary purpose of writing, therefore, is that the thought it contains should be communicated. To do so it is necessary to put the books for use. The first law, therefore, truly demands that all efforts should be made to ensure that all the books kept in the library are used because it is created for use. The first law "Books are for use" places emphasis on the use of books rather than storage. Books were once kept in closed access in order to prevent theft, but this discouraged free use and prevented loaning. The first law of library science "books are for use" means that books in libraries are not meant to be shut away from its users.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first law constitutes the basis for library services. Dr. Ranganathan observed that books were often chained to prevent their removal and that the emphasis was on storage and preservation rather than use. He did not reject the notion that preservation and storage were important, but he asserted that the purpose of such activities was to promote use. Without user access to materials, there is little value in these items. By emphasizing use, Dr. Ranganathan refocused the attention of the field to access-related issues, such as the library's location, loan policies, hours and days of operation, as well as the quality of staffing and mundane matters like library furniture, temperature control, and lighting.<br />
<br />
First Law - Books are for Use is the ones of the Five Laws of Library Science that Ranganathan remarked as ‘trivial truism’ in his writing “Library Science and Scientific Method.”⁷ Trivial Truism refers to a statement of little value or importance that is obviously true and says nothing new or interesting. So here Dr. S. R. Rangangathan means to say that the First Law - Books are for Use is obviously true and understood. Ranganathan says in this work:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Before dealing with these factors, a word should be said about the remark that the First Law - Books are for Use - is a trivial truism. The first law of most of the science is equally so. For example, Newton’s first law of motion reads, “Every body preserves in its state of rest unless it is compelled to change that state by impressed forces.” Is this not a truism?</blockquote>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Implications </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Open Access</span></b> - Open access of books enhance their use. In this system, every reader is allowed to go to the shelves and choose the book of his interest. In case he does not find the desired book of his interest, he can choose some other from the shelves. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Location</span></b> - A library should be situated near the central place. If it as an institutional library, then it should be situated near the center of the institutional complex. If it is a public library then it should be in the center of the city. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Hours</span></b> - The first law demands that a library should be kept open for long hours, and during the hours which suits to its patrons most. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Building and Furniture</span></b> - There should be a functional library building with pleasant, natural, and electrical light, soothing interior, good looking furniture, comfortable chairs, etc. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Book Selection Policy</span></b> - Books should be purchased which are relevant to the needs of the readers. Books should be attractive such as it fills the reader with pleasure. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Techniques</span></b> - Proper cataloging and classification of books are essential for promoting the use of books. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Publicity</span></b> - The First Law demands wide publicity of each and every book of the library. For example, the librarian can bring out the list of new additions and latest arrivals through the Current Awareness Service (CAS) or Selective Dissemination of Information Services (SDI). </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Staff</span></b> - A library cannot come up to the expectation of the first law unless its staff is attentive and cheerful, and cares for the books and readers. Readers should be looked upon as customers. Some readers are shy and are not informed about the complex library techniques. The library staff should help such users to find their desired book. It will not only satisfy readers but also enhance library's use. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Reference Service</span></b> - Reference service aims to establish the right contact between the right reader and right book at the right time. A collection of library resources would not be used fully unless the reference librarian makes effort to help the users to exploit the resources of the library. This personal service will lead to the greater use of books. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">SECOND LAW: EVERY READER HIS / HER BOOK</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second law of library science is "Every Reader His / Her Book". This law implies that the "books are for use of all" or "books for all." The Second Law stressed on the democratization of the library where every reader has the equal right to get the book of his / her interest. The second law fixed some responsibilities or obligations of the state, the library authority, the library staff, and the readers. A library should serve all patrons, no matter their age, race, or economic status.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This law suggests that every member of the community should be able to obtain materials needed. Dr. Ranganathan felt that all individuals from all social environments were entitled to library service and that the basis of library use was education, to which all were entitled. These entitlements were not without some important obligations for both libraries/librarians and library patrons. Librarians should have excellent first-hand knowledge of the people to be served. Collections should meet the special interests of the community, and libraries should promote and advertise their services extensively to attract a wide range of readers. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second law of library science "every reader his/her book" means that librarians serve a wide collection of patrons, acquire literature to fit a vast collection of needs, do not judge what specific patrons choose to read. Everyone has different tastes and differences and we should respect that.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The possible absence of a physical knowledge storage object doesn’t dilute the power of Ranganathan’s second principle; it is certainly relevant to media in all forms including the Internet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Implications / Obligations</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Obligations of the State</span></b> - When we say "Every Reader His / Her Book" or "Books for All", the state or government automatically comes in picture. The state has a certain obligation to its citizens and one of these is to provide equal opportunity to read. Ranganathan has discussed obligations of the state under three head. (i) Finance--providing finance by giving grants and by levying library cess (Ranganathan's choice), (ii) Legislation--enacting library legislation, and (iii) Coordination--of activities to ensure "Books for All" </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Obligations of the Library Authority</span></b> - The second law has something to say to library authorities in respect to the selection of books and staff. A library has limited finance. It is therefore desirable to know the requirements of the readers before selecting the books. Similarly, library authority should select staff for their library with professional competence and missionary zeal. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Obligations of Library Staff</span></b> - Library staff should be cooperative and service minded. Library staff should form a bridge between readers and books, only then every reader will have his/her book. When a reader enters a library, the library staff should approach him with a helping hand. Second Law strongly advocates user education program in libraries. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Obligations of the Reader</span></b> - The Second Law expects the readers also to discharge some responsibilities. Readers should be disciplined and follow rules and regulations. Readers should restrain from cutting pages from books, keeping books beyond the due date, etc. All such acts amount to keeping other readers away from their books. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">THIRD LAW: EVERY BOOK ITS READER</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Third Law prescribes Every Book its Reader. The emphasis is on the book. This law desires that every book in a library must find its reader. It implies that there should be maximum use of books by their users.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This principle is closely related to the second law, but it focuses on the item itself, suggesting that each item in a library has an individual or individuals who would find that item useful. Dr. Ranganathan argued that the library could devise many methods to ensure that each item finds its appropriate reader. One method involved the basic rules for access to the collection, most notably the need for open shelving.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The third law of library science "every book its reader" means a library's books have a place in the library even if a smaller demographic might choose to read it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is, therefore, necessary to adopt measures to ensure successful implementation of the demand of the Third Law. The factors that may be kept in view in this regard have been discussed below:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Implications </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Open Access</span></b> - It is one of the most effective ways to ensure that the maximum number of books are seen by the readers. It also happens sometimes that the reader to the shelves in search of a book and in the process of search select many more books. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Book Selection</span></b> - Give full weightage to the tastes and requirements of the clientele of the library. Difficulties of the Third Law can be minimized by adopting a well-balanced book selection policy. If the right books are selected it will definitely find its readers </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Shelf Arrangement</span></b> - If the books are arranged so that the subjects get arranged according to the degree of mutual relationship, then each book would have a higher probability of getting its readers. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Easy Accessibility</span></b> - Books should be placed within easy reach of the readers. It has been observed that the books within the comfortable reach of the readers are most frequently used. For easy accessibility, shelves should not be higher than 6.5 ft. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Cataloging</span></b> - Proper cataloging of books is very important as even though there may be well planned and arranged books on the shelves but they are incapable merely by itself. Series entry and cross-reference entries are highly useful in drawing the attention of the readers. Analytical entries increase the chance of a composite book getting its reader. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Reference Service</span></b> - A reference librarian should know about the world of books and try to find out a reader for every one of these. The reference librarian should act as a canvassing agent for each book. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Publicity</span></b> - Publicity is a very powerful weapon to attract readers to the library and thereby to increase the chances of every book to find its reader. For example, the arrival of new books may be brought to the notice of the readers by displaying them, near the entrance of the library, or by communicating the readers through an e-newsletter or broadcasting information about them through the Twitter handle of the library. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Extension Service</span></b> - The library attract readers by converting itself into a cultural and social center. A library does this by organizing exhibitions, musical concerts, a magic show, celebration of local and national festivals, etc. Once the people come to these functions, then the library can make an attempt to bring books and readers together. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">FOURTH LAW: SAVE THE TIME OF THE READER</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Fourth Law says "Save the Time of the Reader." A library user must be assumed a busy person. It is essential to keep the reader satisfied and a reader is satisfied most if his/her time is saved, i.e., if he gets the needed service in minimum possible time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This law is a recognition that part of the excellence of library service is its ability to meet the needs of the library user efficiently. To this end, Dr. S.R. Ranganathan recommended the use of appropriate business methods to improve library management. He observed that centralizing the library collection in one location provided distinct advantages. He also noted that excellent staff would not only include those who possess strong reference skills, but also strong technical skills in cataloging, cross-referencing, ordering, accessioning, and the circulation of materials.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The fourth law of library science "save the time of the user" means that all patrons should be able to easily locate the material they desire quickly and efficiently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Implications </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Open Access</span></b> - In a closed access of books time is wasted unnecessarily. In open access, the time of the readers is saved. If open access is not there then the reader has to make the choice of the books through the searching of the library catalog. Then the reader requests the library staff the book which he has searched in the catalog. The staff searches the required book and if the staff is not able to trace the book, then the reader again needs to search the catalog. These problems can be avoided if open access is provided where the readers can themselves go to the shelves to search their book. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Location</span></b> - The location of the library is of great importance. It must be centrally located so that it is conveniently accessible to the community served. For an institutional library, it should be in the center of the institution, for a public library it should be in the center of the city. Centrally located library saves the times of the users in visiting it. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Shelf Arrangement, Classification, and Cataloging</span></b> - Proper classification schemes should be used in the library. Books should be arranged on shelves according to the classification number. Regular shelf rectification is also essential. In order to save the time of the readers, the library catalog should aim to provide different approaches to the users. It should include analytical entries for composite books. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Stack-Room Guides</span></b> - To save the time of the reader, the library should provide an efficient system of stack room guides. It may be quite useful to keep it at the entrance of the stack room, the whole plan of the room indicating the position of the book racks and classes of books in them. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Issue and Return</span></b> - Most readers want to read the book at home. For this, the library has to issue the books to the readers. Time-saving techniques for circulation to books should be used so that the user has not to spend more time in getting the book issued (or returned). </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Reference Service</span></b> - The reference staff establishes a contact between the book and the reader by providing Reference Service and Long Range Reference Services, thereby saving the time of the reader. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Documentation Service</span></b> - A substantial time of readers is wasted in the literature search. The library should, therefore, undertake comprehensive or selective, as needed be, documentation services including SDI service to save the time of the reader. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Staff</span></b> - Library staff should be cooperative. They should help the readers to find their document keeping in mind the message of the Fourth Law, i.e., to Save the Time of the Reader. </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">FIFTH LAW: THE LIBRARY IS A GROWING ORGANISM</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Fifth Law is "The Library is a Growing Organism." A library is a social institution and it will keep growing like an organism. A library will grow in terms of documents, readers, and staff. The nature of organic growth can be either growth as a body of a child or growth as of the body of an adult. The growth of a new library will correspond to that of a child growing in all aspects. In case of a service library, once its growth has reached the adult stage, the growth would be in terms of replacing old books by new books and new users will continuously replace old users.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This law focused more on the need for internal change than on changes in the environment itself. Dr. Ranganathan argued that library organizations must accommodate growth in staff, the physical collection, and patron use. This involved allowing for growth in the physical building, reading areas, shelving, and in space for the catalog.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The fifth law of library science "the library is a growing organism" means that a library should be a continually changing institution, never static in its outlook. Books, methods, and the physical library should be updated over time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Implications </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Balanced Growth</span></b> - The collection should grow in all the areas of subjects keeping in view the needs and requirements of all the readers, as far as possible. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Casting Off the Old (Obsolete) and Preserving Valuable Books</span></b> - Weed out old, obsolete, and unused books in order to provide space for new additions. However, librarians should take necessary steps to preserve valuable materials. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Choice of a Classification Scheme</span></b> - We should use a scheme of classification, which is able to meet the onslaught of knowledge reasonably well. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Choice of a Catalog Code</span></b> - We should use a catalog code which is able to provide treatment to all kinds of library materials yet acquired as well as new materials likely to be acquired in future. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Modernization</span></b> - Libraries may have to think of computerization of the various housekeeping jobs like the acquisition, circulation, cataloging, etc. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Staff</span></b> - When a library grows, the sanctioned staff at some stage become inadequate. So at that time an increase of staff should be considered. Any standard for staffing should be accepted by the libraries, then the library would be able to get the requisite staff. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Library Building -- Provision for Future</span></b> - While planning and designing a library building, there should be a provision for the expansion of the building, both horizontally as well as vertically. The library should provide adequate space for the present as well as the future. </li>
<li><b><span style="color: #990000;">Safeguards</span></b> - As the number of readers increase, the problem of theft of books from the library becomes acute, especially in the open access system. So, it necessitates some safeguards, such as entrance and exit should be from one gate, windows should be grilled, and all readers should be checked before leaving. </li>
</ul>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">VARIANTS OF FIVE LAWS OF LIBRARY SCIENCE</span></b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Librarian <b>Michael Gorman</b> (born 6 March 1941, Witney, Oxfordshire) a British-born librarian, library scholar and editor/writer past president of the American Library Association, 2005–2006, and editor of AACR2), and Walt Crawford recommended the following laws in addition to Ranganathan's five in Future Libraries: Dreams, Madness, and Realities [American Library Association, 1995], (p. 8) Gorman later repeated them in his small book, Our Singular Strengths [American Library Association, 1998].</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Libraries serve humanity. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Respect all forms by which knowledge is communicated. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Use technology intelligently to enhance service. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Protect free access to knowledge. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Honor the past and create the future. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In 2004, librarian <b>Alireza Noruzi</b> recommended applying Ranganathan's laws to the Web in his paper, "Application of Ranganathan's Laws to the Web": </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Web resources are for use. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Every user has his or her web resource. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Every web resource its user. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4 Save the time of the user. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. The Web is a growing organism.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In 2008, librarian <b>Carol Simpson</b> recommended that editing be done to Ranganathan's law due to media richness. The following were: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Media are for use. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Every patron his information. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Every medium its user. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Save the time of the patron. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. The library is a growing organism. </div>

<i><span style="color: #990000;"><b>Reordering Ranganathan: Shifting User Behaviors, Shifting Priorities</b>⁴</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An OCLC Research Report by Lynn Silipigni Connaway, Ph.D., and Ixchel Faniel, Ph.D.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This report suggests that Shiyali Ramamrita Ranganathan's Five Laws of Library Science can be reordered and reinterpreted to reflect today's library resources and services, as well as the behaviors that people demonstrate when engaging with them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although authors Senior Research Scientist Lynn Silipigni Connaway and Associate Research Scientist Ixchel Faniel believe Ranganathan's five laws are still relevant today, their intent is to help evolve both the work done by librarians and the perceptions of libraries and librarians. By changing how we think about the five laws in terms of interpretation and order of importance, Lynn and Ixchel hope to reflect the current resources and services available for use and the behaviors that people demonstrate when engaging with them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The objective of this publication is to provide a timely and relevant context for Ranganathan’s laws that today’s librarians, library researchers, and information scientists can refer to as they think about making changes in practice and developing agendas for future research.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Highlights</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li>Today's library users challenge librarians to move from the simple declaration of "save the time of the reader"; meeting today's users' needs requires embedding library systems and services into their existing workflows </li>
<li>Our modern-day rephrasing of "every person his or her book" is know your community and its needs </li>
<li>The core meaning of "books are for use" is still about access; however, our interpretation focuses on developing the physical and technical infrastructure needed to deliver materials </li>
<li>Our interpretation of "every book its reader" focuses on increasing the discoverability, access, and use of resources within users’ existing workflows </li>
<li>We agree that "a library is a growing organism" and propose growing users' share of attention </li>

<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Jennifer Closson, Library Technician at City of San Diego Literacy Tutoring READ program, United States -- Do unmanned libraries have the same five laws? </span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Salman Haider -- Yes of course. These these Five Laws are the fundamental guiding principles of librarianship which are still relevant in modern unmanned libraries as well as with digital resources. For unmanned libraries the variant of five laws given my Michael Gorman is more relevant which is also described in the Librarianship Studies blog article. </span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Florica Campeanu, Ricercatore/tecnologo presso Istituto Nazionale Di Economia Agraria, Italy -- All libraries, without librarians or with one or thousands of librarians, are of use to their readers/users.

<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Victoria Frâncu, Librarian at Central University Library of Bucharest, Bucharest, Romania -- Ranganathan's laws are still valid and they will always be. I remember a lady from Finland, presenting a paper on this, in an international conference, twenty years ago. It is significant that we are discussing now about the five rules, don't you think? </span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Duraisamy Gnanasekaran, Librarian at Anand Institute of Higher Technology -- Whatever the format of the contents/services provided in the libraries, it is not a matter whether the library is manned or unmanned, the SRR's five laws are applicable forever since the Five Laws are the fundamental guiding principles of librarianship as rightly pointed out by Salman Haider. </span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Chitra Karunanayake, Manager, Library Services, Concord Repatriation General Hospital, Library, Monash University Sydney, Australia -- I have read Ranganathan's Five laws before I started Library studies and that inspired me to start my career in librarianship. I think these laws are still valid and applicable to any library. </span></li>

<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Olugbenga Charles OKE, Certified Library, Archival & Information Professional, The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE), Nigeria -- I would rather refer to these laws as principles they are the basis for the services provided by Librarians and Information Scientists.

<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Trevor Sikhosana, Senior Librarian at City of Cape Town, Scottsdene Library University of KwaZulu-Natal, Cape Town Area, South Africa -- Ten years after having read about them in college, I still refer to them as the foundation of how we provide the service, especially in times when I feel derailed. </span></li>

<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Donna Kellion, Digital Literacy Librarian at Mackay Regional Council Libraries, Charles Sturt University, Mackay, Australia -- Other than the term 'books', I don't believe the laws require a review. Regardless of whether the resources we direct our users to are in print, open online or hidden within the depths of a database, we should still be directing them towards their 'book'.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sabrina Miller, Edmonton Public Library, Canada - "The library is a growing organism"- absolutely! That's why they are not obsolete, not as long as we find creative, innovative ways to stay relevant in serving our communities. We're not just about books anymore!</span></li>

Shalani Dilinika</a></div><div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Like one’s body needs exercise to stay fit, our thinking faculty, the brain, needs reading. Hence, reading is an exercise to the brain as well as a good habit that makes people more intelligent and broad minded. Therefore, the benefits one can obtain by reading books are manifold and immeasurable. However, due to the advancement of information and communication technology, we can see that people opt to spend their free time on social media such as Youtube, Facebook and etc. rather than reading books. According to <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Pew Research centre</a> (2019), approximately 27%of U.S adults haven’t read a book in whole or in part in the past year, whether in print, electronic or audio form. In support of that <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Global Social Media Stats</a> (2021) highlights, a typical user spends an average of close to 2½ hours using social media each day. This tantamounts to a sharp decline in the reading habits of people throughout the world.</div></div><span></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>What science says,</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In scientific view, reading can provide myriad of advantages for people enabling them to enhance their physical and mental salubrity. In this context, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Bavishi, Martin D. Slade, and Becca R. Levy</a> (2016) asserted that reading can make people live longer than non-readers. Accordingly, they studied 3635 individuals who were aged 50 years or more and concluded in findings that people who read for up to 3.5 hours a week lived almost two years longer than non-readers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Further, reading is proven to be one of the best medicines to relieve stress because of its ability to decrease high blood pressure, tension, and lower heart rate. In 2009, a study initiated by the <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">University of Sussex</a> revealed that reading can reduce stress by up to 68% and it works better and faster than the other recreational methods, such as listening to music or drinking a hot cup of tea. Therefore reading is significantly important for people to stay healthy, strong, and stress-free.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Why we should read?</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Since reading can provide a vast array of benefits, the benefits of reading ramnificate over many spectrums of our life as described below:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">1. Reading Boosts Your Memory</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you are reading a book, you have to remember the story, characters, and special events that are in the content. Also, you have to map the connection between characters and incidents to get the meaning. Hence, this activity can be identified as a memory stimulating task that enhances the capacity of our sensory basis. According to a study conducted by <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">Northcentral University</a>, reading has led to a slow down in cognitive decline associated with the old aged people who engaged in reading throughout their lifetimes. Hence, reading a few pages a day is essential to maintain brain health and to stay focused.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">2. Enhance Imagination</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Books have a magical power that stimulates the imagination. When we are reading a book we meet with different characters from different walks of life all over the world. For instance, when someone reads “<i>The Mother</i>” written by Maxim Gorki, the reader’s imagination automatically travels to Russia, and the person is exposed to the hardships that the characters faced in the unfolding story. This imagination can help people travel around the world without moving them over geographical boundaries.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This phenomenon provides a better understanding of people and makes the reader more empathetic or imaginative. For instance, “<i>The Diary of a Young Girl</i>” was the Autobiography of Anne Frank, who was in hiding for two years with her family due to Hitler’s treatment of Jews. The story delivers a strong message to readers about humanity and discrimination against races. In this context, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#">The guardian</a> highlights, “Just because people may be a different religion or race doesn’t mean that they should be treated differently”. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">3. Provide an Entertainment</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">People do a lot of activities to pursue happiness and recreation. It is a well-known fact that nowadays people follow social media, surf the internet, play games, etc. to spend their spare time. This sedentary lifestyle has been causing a multitude of repercussions on people such as hypertension and anxiety. In this regard, reading is proven to be the best option that provides entertainment as well as extensive health benefits. Since reading has been a productive hobby for people for ages, it is proven to be more effective and informative. To exemplify, we can see that children’s books, namely <i>“Famous Five”, “Harry Potter”, “ Alice in the wonderland”, “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” </i>etc. are given a scintillating reading experience that carries a life-long entertainment for children. As an example, when a child reads “<i>Harry Potter</i>”, it imagines a wizardry world, magical spells, and so much fun while reading the book. As a result of that, the characters the child meets in a particular book becomes the child’s heroes. This helps optimistically improve a child’s creativity, imagination, brain functionality, and mood. Other than that, books provide entertainment for people irrespective of their ages. There are a wide variety of book genres such as thriller stories, adventures, romance, horror, and other genres that can provide the ultimate entertainment for people.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #990000;">4. Reading Can Make Up Your Day</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Can you imagine the freshness of a bunch of fresh flowers? The sound of a waterfall? As you feel the freshness of a flower, you can sense the same for a good book. It can really elevate your day optimistically to an unimaginable height and accelerate the concentration ability and the energy level. You can read a book when you are commuting to work or in a long queue wasting your time. In such situations, a newspaper, a pocketbook, or a piece of paper may be a good source of reading that would be beneficial for repelling the monotony of the daily vicious cycle. But nowadays people tend to check their social media screens and surf the internet instead of reading once they get free time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Summary</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In summary, it can be highly recommended that there is a plethora of advantages that are linked to the habit of reading. Sir Francis Bacon once said “Reading Maketh a Full Man”. Hence, reading is an essential activity that stimulates one’s brain, imagination, and creativity in numerous ways.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Although people living in the contemporary world distance themselves from the practice of reading due to their sedentary lifestyle, it really pays dividends to the individuals if allocate a few minutes are allocated in a day to read something interesting, which is proven to be one of the ingredients for one to become a successful person.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><hr /><p><b>SEE ALSO</b></p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2018/10/write-for-librarianship-studies.html" target="_blank"><b>Write for Librarianship Studies - Guidelines for Authors</b></a> - Welcome Library and Information Science Experts – Write for Librarianship Studies and gain a global audience for your writings.

A good example are the community pantries which provide free items that may benefit those affected by the pandemic. With the intention of helping those in need, the Library personnel are thinking of the ways to help through outreach projects. This paper will provide the practices and recommendations used by the library staff who are already doing and are currently engaged in community outreach projects using an open-ended questions that will try to focus on their lives based on their own experiences.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Method</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Online Survey (Open-ended questions) through Google Forms</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Results</span></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1. Librarians are active in outreach activities before and even during the pandemic.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. During the pandemic, health protocols, travel restrictions and social distancing prevent the librarians to fully engage in these outreach activities.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">3. Fear of being infected by the virus, coordination and participation to LGUs, difficulty in assessing which channels can best reach different community members, facilitating and engaging in projects due to limited mobility, travel bans and delays in sending donations, fund raising is also a difficult due limited face to face interactions. Time alignment and budget constraints are also a challenge.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">4. Following health protocols, putting safety first, coordination and partnership are the keys to a successful outreach program during this time of pandemic. No need to brag, help voluntarily and participate willingly in an organization without hesitations and asking for anything in return is a realization in doing outreach activities. Social media and online distribution channels still allow us to help in any way we can. Information sharing can go a long way in helping those in need. Fulfillment in doing outreach activity, by just giving what you have is what you get by helping others.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: #222222; font-size: 16pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Arial Unicode MS";">Discussion</span></b><p></p><p class="Default" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 0cm 12pt;"></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>1. Have you been engaged in a community outreach project before the pandemic? What is the project? What are the objectives?</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">All of the respondents have been involved in a community outreach project or activity before the pandemic. One is a volunteer in a high school library. Two respondents are members of Librarians Empowerment and Action Diliman (Team Lead). The goal is to promote information literacy, disaster resiliency and cleanliness to their recipient communities and empower the underserved sector of society by promoting lifelong learning through information awareness, activities, and instructions. Another one is involved in self-initiated/ individual outreach and a volunteer of Rotary Club of St. Ignatius. Another is involved in book drives, pencil drives, and acquisition of educational toys for the local library and school children of New Ibajay, Palawan. They also collect personal hygiene items and drinking water for the aid of those affected by Taal Volcano eruption. Their book drives’ objective is to promote literacy and love of reading. Lastly, another respondent is involved in different outreach activities since 1996. She joined religious organizations in their parish and distributed transistor radios. The goal of the project is to help individuals be aware of current events and news. The respondent is also involved in two outreach projects produced by their college. One is entitled “Share love, share books”. They donate books to less fortunate individuals, schools and barangay libraries in the provinces. The objective of the project is to help individuals develop reading habits. Workshop sessions and storytelling activities to children are also done by inviting faculty members to be their resource persons. Second project is the “art mugs”, an income generating project (IGP) of the college and at the same time promoting artworks.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>1.1 How about during the pandemic? Did you have any hesitation before accepting the project?</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;">1.1. One respondent did not engage in any community outreach project or activity during the pandemic due to health reasons. Another respondent still has outreach activities and has no hesitation in accepting projects because the respondent believes that outreach activities are selfless offerings of one’s service and resources to the underprivileged. Another respondent stated that even if there is a pandemic, Rotary Club activities are still ongoing and needed. Another respondent said that projects are still on-going and members are actively participating in the planning during meetings as well as promoting and supporting donation drives set by the committee for extending help to the target beneficiaries of the project despite the pandemic. The committee also distributed grocery packs and health kits to help ease the burden if not to eliminate the basic needs of those deeply affected particularly in the nearest UP community. Another respondent said that there are reservations but they will continue to push through with the outreach projects that they reach. There have been delays and changes in focus as a result of the pandemic. Lastly, another respondent said that the project is initiated by the college so there is no reason not to participate.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>1.2. How will you compare the experience between participating in an outreach done before and during the pandemic?</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">1.2 One respondent said that volunteering during the pandemic includes social distancing and health protocols which were not a practice before. Another respondent said that before the pandemic, basic health protocols were not considered. This is contrary to what we have experienced during the pandemic not to mention the extreme coordination to the Local Government Units and Barangay Health Workers. Another respondent said that before the pandemic, one maybe active in physical participation, going to the community or places wherein community activities were being held. During the pandemic, selected community activities were physically attended, but full support is given to the club. Going to community activities are limited to protect oneself from being infected by Covid-19. Another respondent said that face-to-face activities were done before the pandemic. One can gather targeted beneficiaries and perform programmed activities, however, participating during this time of pandemic is a bit risky considering that there are COVID-19 cases which affect the implementation of the project. Another respondent said that they have redirected their outreach to nearby communities and online efforts. Masks and first aid kits were provided for local front liners of the college. Online efforts included information dissemination amidst the pandemic, and linking online donation drives during the events of Typhoon Ulysses and the Cagayan Flooding. Lastly, another respondent said that doing outreach activity in this time of pandemic is quite challenging because of some restrictions.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>2. What are the challenges that you faced during your community outreach project?</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. One respondent said that one challenge is the coordination and participation of the local government units (LGUs). Another respondent said that the only challenge is the fear of being infected by COVID-19. Another respondent said that difficulty in assessing which channels can best reach different community members is also a challenge. Facilitating and engaging the project is very challenging now, since mobility is limited and there are certain protocols to be observed and followed to ensure safety in engaging the activity. Another respondent said that specifically efforts toward New Ibajay, Palawan, travel bans caused significant delays in sending the materials. They also faced challenges in fund raising for outreach projects because of limited face-to-face activities. Time alignment of those involved has also proved challenging. Lastly, another respondent said that budget constraints are also a challenge because we cannot please everybody.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>3. Are there any realizations or tips you can give to those who want to engage in a community outreach project in the future?</b></div></b><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">3. One respondent said that we should follow health guidelines imposed to us to protect ourselves from the pandemic. Another respondent said that putting your safety first, coordination and partnership are the keys to a successful outreach program. Another respondent said that outreach can be done if you want to help voluntarily or participate in an organization willingly. There is no need to advertise or brag about it. We can help others without hesitation or asking for any returns. Another respondent said that by engaging to outreach programs, you extend help to other people and community no matter how big or small it is to help ensure that no one is left behind during this time of pandemic. Another respondent said that building strong attachments to communities and a sense of commitment to help other people to make them feel better in whatever gestures that we may offer to them is worthwhile and fulfilling. Another respondent said that the online landscape is an important in this time of difficulty. Although travel and communication is limited, social media and online distribution channels still allow us to help in any way we can. Information sharing can go a long way with helping those in need. Lastly, another respondent said that there is a fulfillment in doing outreach activity, by just giving what you have with your best effort.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><b>Recommendations <br /></b><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">1. It might be good to look into more local outreach programs in Metro Manila since it is one of the centers of the pandemic. Local front liners of UP such as the security, janitors, and medical practitioners also needs help.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2. Comparisons to other university and organization outreach activities done by librarians and coordinators can be also be studied and explored.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Arlene G. Taylor was born on December 22, 1941, in Iola, Kansas, USA. Taylor's parents were Rev. Stanley Forbes Taylor and Farol Haynes Taylor. Her father was a Baptist Minister. She had an older sister, Farolyn Taylor Hensley. When Arlene was 6 her family moved to Oklahoma where she grew up in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, went to college at Oklahoma Baptist University in Shawnee, Oklahoma, and then taught English and Spanish in junior high school in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As a child, Arlene made pockets, check-out cards, and date due slips for all her children’s books and checked out the books to her dolls. In addition she worked in her high school library and college library as an assistant. Despite that, because of growing up when and where she did, she thought that females had basically three choices for what to do as an adult: teacher, nurse, or marriage and children. Then as a result of teaching in a junior high school where the school librarian was a woman, she realized that there was a fourth choice: librarian. When the school librarian retired, Arlene was given the opportunity by the school principal to be a teacher-librarian. To do this, she would have to take a course in library science each semester, and would have to teach one class a day. The rest of the time she would serve as the librarian. The class she taught was a Spanish class. The courses she took were cataloging courses, and she loved cataloging the books in the library and teaching the students to use the card catalog and to understand the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system. Thus began her career as a cataloger, writer about cataloging, and teacher of cataloging.<br />
<br />
In order to become a full-fledged librarian, Arlene decided to get a Master’s degree in Library Science. She attended the Graduate School of Library & Information Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign and graduated with a Master of Science in Library Science (MSLS) degree in 1966. She had thought she would study to become a school librarian, but her advanced cataloging course with Professor Kathryn Henderson (who passed on her own love of cataloging) made Arlene decide to specialize in organizing and cataloging library materials. Arlene’s first position after library school was as a Descriptive Cataloger at the Library of Congress (LC). Because of her college minor in Spanish and because she had taught junior high school Spanish, she was assigned to catalog books in Spanish and Portuguese. The experience of cataloging at the Library of Congress meant that she learned to create the cataloging “copy” that was used by most US libraries as the basis for their card catalogs. She learned the how and why of many of LC’s practices. Learning to follow the rules as LC interpreted them, and learning to integrate her cataloging into a catalog of millions of existing catalog cards set her up for life in being able to answer questions about why things were done as they were. She had no difficulty in finding a job upon moving to Newport News, Virginia, because having worked at LC opened doors easily. As Assistant Director of the Library at Christopher Newport College (now University), one of her responsibilities was to do all of the original cataloging required there.<br />
<br />
In 1970, she returned to the University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign, this time with two very small children. She went to talk to the University’s library cataloging department about a possible position. Upon learning that she would have to catalog with LC copy for a year in order to learn local practices, she was a bit incensed that she had worked at LC <i>creating</i> LC copy, but now she would have to spend a year typing headings on LC cards. So she went to talk to the Dean of the library school. Because the cataloging professor—the one who had been Arlene’s professor when she was a student there—was about to go on sabbatical, Arlene was offered the opportunity to teach those courses while she was gone. Teaching cataloging in graduate school turned out to be the perfect way to combine her past education and experience. In addition it allowed her to be at home with her young children while grading papers and preparing for classes.<br />
<br />
Arlene’s next position was as Assistant Head of the Catalog Department of the Library at Iowa State University. There she coordinated and supervised the catalogers of the monographic cataloging section. In the summers, she was invited back to the University of Illinois to teach in summer school. The experience solidified her desire to teach cataloging full time. And so she moved to North Carolina to enter the PhD program in the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North Carolina. While waiting for the then-new PhD program to get underway, Taylor taught in the Library Science program at nearby North Carolina Central University. She also finished her first book which she had started writing while at Iowa State University: <i>Cataloging with Copy</i>.<br />
<br />
When she entered the PhD program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1977, there was no one teaching cataloging there full time—only adjuncts. Her program advisor was Dr. Lester Asheim, a wonderful person and great teacher, after whom she later tried to model her teaching. He agreed to be her advisor for her dissertation because he felt that she already knew quite a lot about cataloging—she just needed help with how to write a dissertation. She really wanted to do a study of online catalogs, comparing them with card catalogs, but in 1978 there were no complete catalogs online yet. There were a lot of name-title catalogs, based on what had been entered into circulation systems of the day; but none had subject access. When reading about the new cataloging rules, <i>Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules</i>, 2nd ed. (AACR2), she learned that the Library of Congress had estimated that approximately 49% of the existing MARC records would need to have headings updated to bring them into line with AACR2, but administrators did not know how to apply that projection to the records of any library other than LC. What would happen to the necessity for changing headings during the first years of implementation of AACR2, and would the rate of change decrease over time? That seemed like a good dissertation topic! She decided to sample headings in a small academic library, a medium-sized academic library, and a large academic library and determine whether those sample headings would have to be changed to agree with AACR2. Her research showed that if library catalogers were to wait until a name needed to be used in cataloging to change that name in the catalog, then the first year’s changes would be a lot less than the figure from LC. Further, a name could be different from what it would have been in previous rules, but if there were no entries for that name already in the catalog, it would not be an issue. And if LC copy were to be accepted as it came, without changing a heading until LC changed it, there would be even further reduction (i.e., leaving the changes for the first year at: 3.6% - large; 2.9% - medium; 0.5% - small). The reason changes were such an issue at this time was that if a library wanted to have an integrated catalog with all new entries interfiled with pre-1981 entries, then headings on cards already in the catalog had to be erased and retyped, or cross references had to be made between two groups of cards; although if the change were very slight, such as addition of a date, then the cards could be interfiled.<br />
<br />
People began hearing about Arlene’s findings, and she was invited all over the USA to speak. This was not a typical reaction to a library science dissertation! The most influential invitation was to speak at the American Library Association (ALA) annual meeting in 1981. It turned out to be quite a popular topic—the very large room did not even have standing room for another person. In 1982 she published her dissertation in book form: <i>AACR2 Headings: A Five-Year Projection of Their Impact on Catalogs</i>.<br />
<br />
In order to determine whether the dissertation’s findings turned out to be correct, catalogers at the library at Iowa State University, where Arlene had been Assistant Head of the Catalog Department decided to keep statistics on how many changes had to be made in their catalogs due to AACR2. That library was comparable to the medium-sized library in her study. Barbara Paff, Head of Catalog Maintenance there, and Arlene analyzed the data and found that the difference between the dissertation’s projection and their actual cataloging was statistically insignificant. This finding was published in: “Looking Back: Implementation of AACR 2,” <i>Library Quarterly</i> 56, no. 3 (July 1986): 272–285.<br />
<br />
The importance of the findings in Arlene’s dissertation was once remarked upon by Michael Gorman who said in a public presentation that Arlene Taylor almost single-handedly got AACR2 implemented, because her dissertation research made it seem reasonable to do. In Gorman’s autobiography, <i>Broken Pieces</i>, he said, “Probably the most valuable articles in favor of AACR2 were contributed by Arlene Taylor, who had, unlike most of the other contributors to the debate, done some research that showed it was cost-effective to implement AACR2” (p. 200).<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Teaching</span></b><br />
<br />
Dr. Taylor held three full-time teaching positions after receiving her PhD—at the University of Chicago (1981-86), Columbia University (New York City, 1986-93), and the University of Pittsburgh (1993-2005). The first two schools were closed (in 1987 and 1993 respectively) because the administration at each University decided that because everything was going to be in computers, there would be no more need for libraries!<br />
<br />
During Dr. Taylor’s teaching career, cataloging changed a great deal. The most obvious change was going from card catalogs to online catalogs. At first she had to teach how to type catalog cards. (Does anyone remember card platens for typewriters that had a metal strip along the length of the platen to hold down the edge of the card?) Gradually schools began teaching the entry of records into MARC paper forms and then into MARC computer forms. Of course, then the teaching of the MARC format had to be added to the teaching of cataloging rules, but after awhile, professors no longer had to spend as much time on filing rules. Cataloging rules change constantly, so that was always a change from year to year. In addition LC began to be more responsive to the subject needs of catalog users, with the result that there was more emphasis on the hierarchical logic of notes, references, and relationships. Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) became more thesaurus-like, which led to the teaching of thesauri, ontologies, and other such subject arrangements. LC Classification (LCC) became more than just a list of numbers assigned to topics. The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) had to find hierarchically logical places to insert new concepts, such as “the Internet,” while also trying to overcome bias in parts of the schedule, such as the religion schedule being overwhelmingly devoted to Christianity. And finally, all of these things moved into the world of <i>metadata</i>.<br />
<br />
Another change was that of gradually taking into account the ways cataloging is done in places other than libraries, such as in archives and museums, or on the Internet. Along with this was the understanding that the introductory cataloging course, which was a required course in almost all Library and Information Science (LIS) schools, needed to address the real life situations that the students were going to face. Most of them were not going to be catalogers. Some were going to become catalogers or metadata librarians, but others were going to become reference librarians, library administrators, acquisition librarians, information technology specialists, archivists, museum curators, subject information specialists, and so on. Many of them were also going to be creating, using, and/or providing access to bibliographies, indexes, finding aids, registers, and all kinds of databases, including catalogs. These students needed to learn about all the ways of organizing information so that they could support creation of all kinds of retrieval tools in whatever settings they would find positions after graduation. Dr. Taylor had adjusted her introductory course to reflect this understanding through the decades of the 1980s and 1990s, and finally she wrote her lectures into a book that was published in 1999 (<i>The Organization of Information</i>), and for which she received the ALA Highsmigh Library Literature Award in 2000. The book has gone through three additional revisions, the 4th ed. having been co-authored by her former student, Daniel Joudrey, who is now a professor at Simmons University.<br />
<br />
Yet another change during Dr. Taylor’s teaching career was the addition of “automation” to cataloging and technical services courses. The first automation courses in the 1970s were quite primitive automation compared to what we have today! Dr. Taylor taught students to write simple programs that were “punched” (typed) into keypunch cards. The program cards were followed by cards with the data to be counted, and the whole pack had to be submitted to the mainframe computer. Then there was a wait until the next day to get the results, and if there had been even a tiny error on one of the program cards, that card had to be repunched, and the submission and wait process had to be repeated. The MARC format had been created in 1968, and by the late 1970s MARC was used largely to code records through OCLC for printing cards for card catalogs. It was also used to code records for book catalogs and for microfilm catalogs. There were a few online catalogs (name access and title access only) in mini-computers. Mini-computers were largely used for circulation systems, and MARC was not usually the method of coding records for circulation until after online catalogs became more common and an effort was made to use the same records for both circulation and catalogs. Some students were quite quick to catch on to automation concepts, but others found it difficult. By the end of the 1990s, however, students applying for library studies knew that online systems were to be an integral part of their studies.<br />
<br />
Finally, the change that is currently happening in Schools in the USA is of major concern to Dr. Taylor. The current “iSchools” have dropped many library science courses, especially cataloging courses and school library courses. The School of Information Sciences at University of Pittsburgh, for example, has recently combined with the University’s Department of Computer Science to become the School of Computing and Information. What was the Library and Information Science Program of that school is now the Department of Information Culture and Data Stewardship (ICDS). The other two departments in the recently combined school are Computer Science, and Informatics and Network Systems. The news release about this stated that a “growing number of other universities around the country … have reorganized their programs in similar ways.” The dean emphasized a shift to embracing big data, data analytics, and an interaction between computation and information as being what is driving the department merger. Although the MLIS is still mentioned on the web page for the newly named ICDS department, and the fact that the program is ALA-accredited is emphasized, “Library” is no longer in any part of the school or department name. As library science professors retire from these reorganized schools around the country, many are being replaced by other kinds of scientists. Just as library schools survived the spate of school closings in the 1980s (at University of Chicago, Columbia University, Emory University, and about ten others), perhaps library science programs will survive the current reorganizations. If they are to survive, the facts must be emphasized: libraries currently are packed with users—people reading, people waiting to use the computers, students following up on research mentioned by their teachers/professors, children attending story hours, people researching genealogy, people attending community information programs, and so forth. These libraries need librarians who have learned the latest technology, the latest advances in organizing information, and best practices in serving library users.<br />
<br />
While discussing changes over time, it should be noted that there were changes in library school students’ attitudes toward cataloging, or metadata provision generally, during Dr. Taylor’s teaching career. When she first started teaching in the early 1970s, introductory cataloging was a required course, and a majority of students dreaded it. They had to learn to type catalog card sets, as well as learn what seemed to many to be arcane rules for creating the records and for filing cards into catalogs. Authority control also began to be introduced, and soon MARC encoding was added. Dr. Taylor did try to enliven her course by such things as having students catalog themselves. For example, she asked: What is your title? Who is your author? What is your edition statement? What was your date of publication? What is your physical description? Where would you be classified in DDC and in LCC? Most students enjoyed this way of looking at the rules, because in such an exercise there are not “right answers,” but there are “right” ways of understanding what kinds of data should be placed into each of these fields. However, students still dreaded the course and claimed not to understand why it was required for everyone. Several told Dr. Taylor about librarians they knew prior to attending library school who told them that they would enjoy everything except cataloging, and they would just have to grit their teeth and get through that course somehow. However, around the turn of the century, as the concept of organizing all kinds of information took hold, and as metadata moved online and into many less rigid formats, one could see attitudes changing. It was around that time that when students gave their oral reports at the end of a semester, they had a great deal of fun shouting METADATA! every time it was appropriate to use the word “metadata” in their reports. There came to be more interest in understanding the theory, principles, standards, and tools behind information organization in all types of environments.<br />
<br />
Another major area of change for Dr. Taylor was in the area of subject analysis and involved her having to develop an entirely new view of what a subject is. When she first entered the field, she viewed subject analysis as the process of finding the “right” heading(s) in the <i>Sears List of Subject Headings </i>(as a school librarian) and then in the <i>Library of Congress Subject Headings</i> (LCSH) list (as an academic librarian). And then one had to find the “right” notation in the Dewey Decimal Classification or the Library of Congress Classification. Cataloging at the Library of Congress was divided into separate Descriptive Cataloging and Subject Cataloging departments. When Taylor worked there she was assigned to Descriptive Cataloging, so she did not learn the principles behind LCSH and LCC as applied at LC, although she had learned some theory of subject analysis in library school. She says she didn’t make much progress in her understanding of subjects and aboutness until she started teaching. Even then she didn’t make a lot of progress at first, partly because the cataloging profession in the USA at the time was more engrossed with descriptive cataloging rules. Most academic and other research libraries did not even place subject references in their catalogs, because there was a strongly held belief that real scholars should search for authors and titles, not subjects. Many school and public libraries also did not add references, because they did not have full-time catalogers and they purchased card sets ready to file from H.W. Wilson or other vendors. Dr. Taylor later came to hope that she did not damage her early students too much. It was while writing the subject chapters in the seventh edition of <i>Introduction to Cataloging and Classification</i>, published in 1985, that really made a difference. For the sixth edition, 1980, a third co-author wrote the subject chapters while Dr. Taylor did the descriptive chapters. For the seventh edition, though, Dr. Taylor edited the whole thing. She was forced to really pay attention to the work of Charles Cutter in the nineteenth century in the United States; to Ranganathan’s Colon Classification in the early to mid-twentieth century, which used a truly faceted approach; and the long tradition of British subject analysis, including Brown’s Subject Classification, Bliss’ Bibliographic Classification, and the work of the British Classification Research Group. She finally began seeing subject analysis as a serious scholarly way to provide access to library materials. The process of determining aboutness did not really receive her attention until the eighth edition of <i>Introduction to Cataloging and Classification</i>, published in 1992, the seventh edition having a chapter on Subject <i>Arrangement</i> of Library Materials instead. While the title of the chapter remained the same in the eighth edition, the introduction to subject analysis increased from one page in the seventh edition to four pages in the eighth; in the ninth edition, published in 2000, the chapter was retitled Subject <i>Access</i> to Library Materials. Going on at the same time as the seventh edition onward were Dr. Taylor’s two decades (1990–2009) of serving on ALA’s Subject Analysis Committee (SAC) and its subcommittees, and also serving on the Dewey Decimal Classification Editorial Policy Committee. So she had lots more reason to learn about subject analysis than when serving on descriptive cataloging or administrative-type committees.<br />
<br />
Another major change in Dr. Taylor’s understanding of what a subject is, and what aboutness is, concerned the place of form/genre terms in a subject heading string. She gradually came to understand that, while a user might have fully understood that <i>Cats—Behavior</i> represented a resource about the behavior of cats, and <i>Cats—Bibliography</i> represented a resource that gives a list of resources about cats, the fact that both types of subdivisions were coded $x in MARC did not allow a computer system to automatically give users works about some specific aspects of cats (such as behavior, diseases, or nutrition) separately from giving users works that are forms or genres of resources about cats (such as bibliographies, pictorial works, or fiction). Coming to understand that form/genre terms are not subjects was very difficult for the profession. So Dr. Taylor did quite a bit of writing about this topic. She also added to her website a large section devoted to all the documents that were generated during the process of bringing to fruition the development of ways to distinguish form/genre from subject/aboutness.<br />
<br />
Dr. Taylor’s getting a new subdivision subfield code for form/genre ($v) through MARBI (the committee in ALA that was responsible for the MARC format) in 1995 is a story that is not widely known. As already mentioned, she served on the Subject Analysis Committee from 1990 to 1994 (as Chair from 1992 to 1994). One of SAC’s Subcommittees was on Form Data (1991–94) and she served on that as well. Coming to understand that form terms should not be coded with the same character as subject subdivisions was not easy for the profession. During the discussions of the Form Data Subcommittee, people on each side of the issue were sometimes quite emotional. Finally, though, the Form Data Subcommittee and then SAC decided that the arguments demonstrating that users needed computers to sort their subject retrievals with a breakdown of the subject by form/genre separate from the breakdown by further subject aspects won out over the “it will cost too much” argument and the “is all of this worth it” question. When the subfield v ($v) proposal was to be discussed and voted on at a MARBI meeting, Dr. Taylor, who had been charged to attend the meeting and defend the proposal, was being told by folks who knew MARBI members that it was not likely to pass—that most MARBI members fell into the “it will cost too much” camp. She believes it would not have passed when it did were it not for an insight that came to Dr. Taylor in the shower (!) as she was getting ready to go to the MARBI meeting that day! In thinking about what she would say, she suddenly remembered that the charge to MARBI included something to the effect that MARBI was supposed to assist other committees of ALA in carrying out their needs with regard to the MARC format (“To encourage the creation of needed standards for the representation in machine-readable form of bibliographic information,” to be exact). It occurred to her that she should remind the committee of their charge and point out to them that SAC had been through all the pros and cons and had determined that the new subfield code was what was needed to help identify form/genre terms for users. SAC was asking MARBI for assistance in accomplishing this, not for their permission to distinguish these terms. Before she spoke, the discussion and questions from MARBI members made her feel very discouraged, but then, as she spoke, she could see something like realization spreading across the faces of MARBI members. The vote was taken soon after she spoke, and there was only one vote against it. Dr. Taylor believes $v to be her second most important contribution to librarianship (her dissertation on AACR2 headings being her first), because after her success with AACR2 in 1981, her friend Charles Simpson took her to lunch. He said to her then that she had just gotten her PhD and still had many years ahead of her, but she had already done what many folks only accomplish after a professional lifetime. He asked her, “What are you going to do for an encore?” She knows that almost no one knows about the $v story, and many would say she had done a lot of other things that folks would consider to be more important, but she has thought of $v as her “encore”!<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">International contributions</span></b><br />
<br />
Although most of Dr. Taylor’s teaching was in the United States, she also had the opportunity to do some teaching in other countries. In 1978-79, she went to Brazil at the invitation of her sister and brother-in-law to teach people to catalog books for a new seminary library. They wanted a library that would have a circulating collection, because their students would be coming in from rural areas, and they wanted those students to be able to take books back with them for study. Few if any libraries in Brazil at the time had circulating collections, so there was little experience there to draw on. Taylor was able to teach some of the local folks to catalog the books by writing out catalog “cards” as they watched. They could see where to place the title, the author(s), the publishing information, the description, etc. Then for subject headings, she relied on her sister to translate to the “catalogers” what was said about how to determine aboutness and choose subject headings from a list in Portuguese. In order to create a circulating collection, Taylor helped them to design pockets, check-out cards, and date due slips, and then take the designs to a printer, because they could not purchase these items already made, as libraries did in the USA. Ordering them from the USA would have taken weeks, if not months, not to mention the cost of shipping. With all these challenges, Taylor found it rewarding to see the catalog beginning to take shape before returning home. She was rewarded again nineteen years later when visiting and was able to see the library and its catalog in existence and in heavy use in the Seminary building.<br />
<br />
Twenty years after the experience in Brazil, Dr. Taylor took a sabbatical at the Bodleian Library, Oxford University, Oxford, England. Her project was to redesign their website. They had a site that consisted of separate URLs that were not categorized or linked. Although this was actually the state of the majority of websites at that time, libraries were working to provide organized sites, just as they provided organized collections. Dr. Taylor created a design, but she was not expected to write the programs that would make the pages appear in that form, even though she <i>did</i> write all her syllabi in html “from scratch” at the time, along with her own entire website; but it would have required a year instead of a semester’s sabbatical to write the html for the Bodleian website! Several months after returning home, she was able to look up the Bodleian site and see her design at work. The experience was helpful in her teaching, because it helped her widen her view of cataloging to have more of the approach of “organizing information.” She also was able to expand the coverage of her courses to include the idea of designing technical services websites.<br />
<br />
In 2002 and 2004, Dr. Taylor conducted workshops in Thailand and Israel, respectively. In Thailand she was asked to teach two workshops. One was intended to teach online cataloging (e.g., using OCLC) to librarians who came from around the country to Suranaree University of Technology to attend the workshop. The second was to teach university professors the use of Blackboard for web-based instruction. In Israel she was asked to teach two workshops—one on metadata, one on ontologies and taxonomies—and a colloquium on modern tools for organizing information. The workshops were attended by master’s and doctoral students from the Information Science Department of Bar-Ilan University, Tel-Aviv, some faculty who were teaching in the area, and practicing professional catalogers, database managers, bibliographers, and library managers from around the country. The colloquium was attended by many Information Science Department faculty members and students and also by librarians from the area. As had been the case in Brazil, language was a small issue. The attendees in both Thailand and Israel were much more fluent in understanding English than Dr. Taylor was in their languages, so she had to rely on translators to read or repeat the questions. Otherwise, however, attendees seemed to learn what they came for. And Dr. Taylor felt that she learned a great deal about two very different cultures!<br />
<br />
In addition to these more lengthy stays in other countries while teaching, Dr. Taylor was invited to make presentations for conferences or for library school students. In September 1996, she made a presentation in Japan for a conference on the electronic information environment. In October 1997, she presented a paper and also met with students and faculty of the library school at the Universidade Federal de Goiás in Brazil. And finally, she presented a paper for an international authority control conference in Italy in February 2003.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Research and writing</span></b><br />
<br />
Dr. Taylor’s research, publications, and professional presentations covered a wide range of topics over the years. Looking back, there were changes in emphasis over time. Starting with her first book in 1976, she always wrote about all of the topics of descriptive cataloging, subject cataloging, catalogs and other retrieval tools, and technical service aspects, because the books she wrote covered all these. But if one just looks at her research articles, it appears that there was a rather sudden shift around 1992 from descriptive cataloging to subject cataloging. It has already been said that she started serving on SAC in 1990 and became its chair in 1992. Because the implementation of AACR2 seemed at the time to have solved most of the problems of descriptive cataloging—which, of course, now is not quite true as libraries adjust to RDA—Dr. Taylor turned to research in the area of subject cataloging. These articles included looking at subject access to information in periodical indexes; form/genre research; ontologies/taxonomies; controlled vocabulary vs. keyword searching of titles, notes, and so forth; keyword searching of FAST vs. LCSH; and knowledge management systems. Interspersed among all these, though, there continued to be articles about authority control, system design, information organization, FRBR, and general cataloging/metadata issues, often because she was invited to speak on those particular issues, and then the speeches turned into articles. Also, she did a series of presentations and/or articles about teaching various aspects of cataloging: cataloging principles (1989), organization of electronic resources (2000), seriality (1977 and 2002), subject cataloging (2002), authority control (2004), and Dewey Decimal Classification (2006). A few of these projects and articles were accomplished with co-authors, some of whom were previous students of hers.<br />
<br />
Dr. Taylor served as a major advisor and/or committee member for a number of doctoral dissertations in library science. These often presented challenges, but there were also rewards. There was always the reward of learning in depth about an area of cataloging/ librarianship that she had not delved into before. Sometimes the doctoral student’s research overlapped with hers, and in those cases, it was helpful to have that area already researched so that she could cite and build upon that work. A challenge she had was that about half of her doctoral dissertation advisees were from non-English-speaking countries, which meant that there were issues with their English to various degrees. But these students all produced excellent dissertations in the end. Dr. Taylor enjoyed the opportunities for co-authoring articles based on three dissertations at the University of Pittsburgh (those of Patrice Clemson, Ling-Ling Lai, and Daniel Joudrey) and a master’s paper at the University of Chicago (that of Mark Watson). Other students also rewrote and published their dissertations or master’s papers as articles, which made her proud! <br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Contributions to ALA</span></b><br />
<br />
Dr. Taylor had several positions of responsibility in the American Library Association, particularly in ALCTS and LITA. Her first appointment was serving on the Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access (CC:DA), ALA Resources and Technical Services Division, Cataloging and Classification Section (ALA/RTSD/CCS) (1977–81). She has said that appointment was awesome, partly because she was writing her dissertation during this time, and also because it was such a turning point in the cataloging profession. The CC:DA hearing on the AACR2 rule to catalog microforms as microforms, not as the books they are copies of, was hugely eye-opening. People got up to “testify” for their allotted time, and if not in tears when they started, many were in tears within a minute or two. They were so concerned for the users of these microforms – they thought that the users needed to have the original book date (e.g., 1872) in the publication area, not the copy date (e.g., 1975). Dr. Taylor was touched by the caring that was demonstrated by these speakers. That same situation taught her about ALA politics. The committee voted in a tie on the question of whether to recommend that LC follow the new rule to catalog microforms as the copy they are, not as if they are the original book. Even though the Chair thought that the new rule should be followed, she broke the tie on the side of not making that recommendation because she believed that if the vote were to follow the new rule, then RTSD would disband CC:DA and take the oversight of cataloging rules away from CCS.<br />
<br />
Perhaps Dr. Taylor’s greatest contributions to ALA were while serving on and chairing the ALA Association for Library Collections and Technical Services Subject Analysis Committee, (ALA/ALCTS/CCS/SAC) (1990–94), and while chairing and serving on the ALA/ALCTS Catalog Form and Function Committee (CFFC), (1995–1999). In addition to serving on SAC itself, she served on various SAC subcommittees between 1990 and 2009. So she attended more than 25 years of SAC meetings, given that she had attended SAC meetings before she became a member, and continued attending as long as she could attend ALA meetings. As Chair of SAC, she put in place some procedures that continue to be followed today, such as not having SAC meetings at the same time as CC:DA meetings, because most catalogers do both subject and descriptive cataloging. The document numbering system used by SAC is another example. There were some important ALA meeting programs on subject analysis during Dr. Taylor’s years of service, including “Crisis in Subject Cataloging and Retrieval” in 1995, a pre-conference on subject cataloging of electronic resources in 1997, and a program on form/genre in 1997. And regional institutes on “Demystifying Subject Cataloging” were sponsored by SAC in 1995. The evaluation of Faceted Access to Subject Terminology (FAST) put on by the SAC FAST Subcommittee was extremely important, because of the adoption of FAST by many agencies, not necessarily libraries, that wanted to provide subject access to their documents. A major accomplishment of the Catalog Form and Function Committee (CFFC) during Dr. Taylor’s tenure was the series of “briefing papers” sponsored by CFFC that were published in the <i>ALCTS Newsletter</i> from 1994 to about 2000. These papers covered newer topics concerning catalogs that ALA members needed to know about, such as Z39.50, subject authority control on the Internet, and the form/genre subfield v implementation. The papers were brought together in a separate collection published by ALCTS in 2005, and Dr. Taylor wrote the introduction for that collection.<br />
<br />
Although not specifically ALA related, Dr. Taylor also served on the Dewey Decimal Classification Editorial Policy Committee (2000–2008). She said that it felt like being in the forefront of classification progress to be able to discuss needed changes and new concepts with Committee members from various parts of the profession that make use of the Dewey Decimal Classification.<br />

<li style="text-align: justify;">Summary: Not many books merit an eleventh edition, but this popular text does. Newly updated, Introduction to Cataloging and Classification provides an introduction to descriptive cataloging based on contemporary standards, explaining the basic tenets to readers without previous experience, as well as to those who merely want a better understanding of the process as it exists today. The text opens with the foundations of cataloging, then moves to specific details and subject matter such as Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR), Functional Requirements for Authority Data (FRAD), the International Cataloging Principles (ICP), and RDA. Unlike other texts, the book doesn't presume a close familiarity with the MARC bibliographic or authorities formats; ALA's Anglo-American Cataloging Rules, 2nd Edition, revised (AACR2R); or the International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD). Subject access to library materials is covered in sufficient depth to make the reader comfortable with the principles and practices of subject cataloging and classification. In addition, the book introduces MARC, BIBFRAME, and other approaches used to communicate and display bibliographic data. Discussions of formatting, presentation, and administrative issues complete the book; questions useful for review and study appear at the end of each chapter.</li>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;">Summary: This latest edition of The Organization of Information is a key resource for anyone in the beginning stages of their LIS career as well as longstanding professionals and paraprofessionals seeking accurate, clear, and up-to-date guidance on information organization activities across the discipline. The book begins with a historical look at information organization methods, covering libraries, archives, museums, and online settings. It then addresses the types of retrieval tools used throughout the discipline—catalogs, finding aids, indexes, bibliographies, and search engines—before describing the functionality of systems, explaining the basic principles of system design, and defining how they affect information organization. The principles and functionality of metadata is next, with coverage of the types, functions, tools, and models (particularly FRBR, IFLA-LRM, RDF) and how encoding works for use and sharing—for example, MARC, XML schemas, and linked data approaches. The latter portion of the resource describes specific activities related to the creation metadata for resources. These chapters offer an overview of the major issues, challenges, and standards used in the information professions, addressing topics such as resource description (including standards found in RDA, DACS, and CCO), access points, authority control, subject analysis, controlled vocabularies—notably LCSH, MeSH, Sears, and AAT—and categorization systems such DDC and LCC.</li>

Professor Emerita, University of Pittsburgh</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Because my background is in school librarianship rather than organization of information, this is a series of Once Upon a Times:<br />
<br />
Once upon a time (OuaT), a library educator, Bohdan Wynar, decided to start a publishing company to make sure that students in library programs had excellent textbooks. He asked Arlene Taylor to join him co-authoring a new edition of his cataloging book.<br />
<br />
OuaT, Arlene Taylor decided that what was critical to the profession was a textbook for students and even more experienced librarians to learn about organization of Information, and, after a great deal of discussion with Dr. Wynar, he published Arlene’s book with that title. This moved librarians into the forefront of information scientists who had new technologies to store information but really weren’t taught how to organize it before they stored it.<br />
<br />
OuaT, Arlene, a new library educator joined the faculty at the University of Chicago only to find that with the introduction of computers, education of future librarians would no longer be needed, and they closed the school, She moved to Columbia University only to find the Provost agreed that computers would provide all the information that would be needed and closing the school would save a great deal of money. At both institutions, she was sought after by doctoral students who wanted to conduct their research in cataloging.<br />
<br />
OuaT, a search committee at the University of Pittsburgh thought they had found a suitable candidate. The applicant, after telling Arlene to please not apply because this person wanted the job, did not take it.<br />
<br />
OuaT, a new search committee with a different chair quickly, actively, aggressively, recruited Arlene, and she accepted the position.<br />
<br />
OuaT, in the manner of many universities, Arlene was appointed as a non-tenured associate professor because that was her rank at Columbia. However, Arlene was quickly reviewed and granted tenure, earning promotion to Professor six years later.<br />
<br />
OuaT, professors and students at Pittsburgh observed Arlene spending long hours with students who had difficulty mastering the art of cataloging and organization of information. Quietly she gathered excellent students to follow in her footsteps.<br />
<br />
OuaT, a retired library educator joined the editorial staff at Libraries Unlimited to work with library educators and their textbooks. This meant meeting Arlene, my former colleague at Pittsburgh, as a beloved author of LU’s best, bestselling textbooks, someone who introduced me to her Pitt graduate, Danny Joudrey, and everyone knows the ending of that tale. What a great pair of authors to “shepherd”<br />
through the creation of new editions of their works. What beautiful works Arlene and then with Danny offered to the world of persons needing to learn about organization of information.<br />
<br />
What is missing from my story is the impact Arlene Taylor has made on the profession through her work as a leader in organizations who crafted the rules and regulations of organizing information. I leave that up to the others. What I do know is that Arlene is an incredible friend to her former students, and in this case, her former colleague as well as her former editor who was delighted that she joined the faculty at Pittsburgh and has remained my incredible colleague and friend.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
My association with Arlene Taylor began in the summer of 1971, very early in her career as an educator. She had begun teaching as an instructor for her alma mater, the Graduate School of Library Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, in spring 1971. I began my studies for the MS in library science that summer, enrolling in her course on “Organization of Library Materials” as one of four required courses for all incoming MS students. She was already a capable and enthusiastic teacher, providing the foundation I needed to pursue the two-semester course sequence in Cataloging and Classification taught by another instructor during the academic year 1971-72. I returned to Illinois as a faculty member myself in August 1977 and taught for 42 years until my retirement in summer 2019. For many years my teaching focused on reference, science reference, and online searching, but in 2005 I began teaching the required MS course on Information Organization and Access. My approach to teaching that course was strongly informed by the second edition of Dr. Taylor’s textbook, <i>The Organization of Information </i>(Libraries Unlimited, 2004). Thus she influenced not only my own education at Illinois, but also that of several hundred additional students who enrolled in the course on Information Organization and Access during the 14 years that I taught it from 2005-2019.<br />
<br />
I also had the opportunity to invite Dr. Taylor to contribute to a festschrift in honor of her own cataloging teacher, Illinois faculty member Kathryn Luther Henderson. Her article, “A Quarter Century of Cataloging Education,” appeared in <i>Technical Services Management, 1965-1990: A Quarter Century of Change and a Look to the Future</i> (Haworth Press, 1996). In 2011, 45 years after she earned her MS in Library Science, the Library School Alumni Association at Illinois presented Arlene Taylor with the Distinguished Alumnus Award recognizing an individual alumnus of the Graduate School of Library and Information Science who has made an outstanding contribution to the field of library and information science. This was a fitting way to celebrate Dr. Taylor’s many accomplishments.<br />

<div>
<div>
In late 1970’s, while Arlene was working on her dissertation research about changing headings to AACR2 and that impact on library catalogs of the time, we first corresponded. She was Arlene Dowell then. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At the time I was head of technical services at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography Library, University of California, San Diego and active in the American Library Association, Resources and Technical Services Division (now ALCTS) and ALA’s Library Information and Technology Division. I was particularly involved in research on authority control and had an extensive bibliography that I shared with Arlene, as I found it included some things she had not yet discovered in her bibliography. And so began our collaborations, particularly in the area of authority control, but also with cataloging education texts (descriptive cataloging, classification, and subject indexing).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I followed her work on authority control from 1981-1983, when Arlene was on the Authority Institutes Planning Committee for the American Library Association, and I attended one of the Institutes. I appreciated her data gathering to help promote cataloging changes, such as her 1981 Ph.D. dissertation, which helped convince libraries that they could switch to the “new” Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd edition, and her 1982 survey of library system vendors regarding authority control, which led to increased awareness among the vendor community of the need for authority control in library systems, which in fact they later implemented. Building on that momentum, I started the LITA/RTSD (later LITA/ALCTS/CCS) Interest Group on Authority Control in the Online Environment (ACIG) within the American Library Association, in which meetings Arlene regularly participated.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We both attended many of the same conferences over the years, including the February 2003 international conference on authority control, “Authority Control: definition and international experiences,” organized by Mauro Guerrini in Florence, Italy. She and I collaborated on the publication of the proceedings¹ from that conference with the assistance of Mauro Guerrini and Murtha Baca. Her contribution to the conference was a presentation on teaching authority control.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When she collaborated with Bohdan S. Wynar on his text, Introduction to Cataloging and Classification, she invited me to update a couple of chapters: in the 8th edition, ch. 26 “Processing Centers. Networking, and Online Systems,” and ch. 27, “Catalog Management.” I again updated and reworked “Processing Centers, Networking, and Online Systems,” for the 9th edition (ch. 19).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I consider Arlene a friend and continue to admire her many contributions to the profession.</div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I am Essam Mansour, a professor of information science at the Department of Libraries and Information at South Valley University, Egypt and one of the students who has been honored to be supervised by the greatest advisor; professor Arlene Taylor. She has not been to not only my instructor and supervisor, but also my guide and inspiration. I never consider her to be just a teacher, supervisor or advisor, but also a very caring mother for her greatest psychological support to me as one of those Arab students affected during the September 2001 incident.<br />
<br />
Until now, we have been communicating with each other via e-mail providing each other with news and events, especially from her side when she informs me of her annual report with regard to her family and professional life, including her health affairs. She is truly a great woman who understands the meaning and value of communicating with others, particularly those who have been embraced by her scientifically and educationally. For my firm belief and recognition of her role, I have taken her as a reference. This is highly due to my confidence in her knowledge and wise opinions. I almost cried affected by her, remembering my stay next to her being educated and benefiting from her knowledge and the style of her administration in supervision and teaching.<br />
<br />
Professor Taylor is not just a number and a degree in our field, but a person who combined science, ethics, modesty and kindness. She is really a dream for every library student who wants to develop and influence his/her society. Please, allow me to dedicate my scientific works published in the major American and British periodicals (attached with this e-mail) to the wonderful teacher and compassionate mother, Professor Arlene. I ask God to perpetuate her life and make her always enlightening for all those who pursue useful knowledge.<br />

<b>Barbara Paff</b><br />
Former Cataloger, Iowa State University</div>
<br />
Although we have been personal friends for many decades, my professional connection with Arlene Taylor was relatively brief.<br />
<br />
I graduated from University of Maryland’s School of Library and Information Services in 1967, with minimal training in descriptive cataloging, because the “new rules” (AACR) were coming out, and as the professor pointed out, by the time we students got jobs the current rules would be outdated.<br />
<br />
After having worked several years in Acquisitions at Colorado State University, I was hired in 1973 at Iowa State University as a cataloger, with no cataloging experience to speak of. It was my great good fortune to have Arlene as my supervisor. She said she would rather train someone from scratch than have to “un-teach” someone! She was a phenomenal teacher, which will surprise no one who knows her. She was unfailingly crystal-clear and thorough in her explanations, patient, and eager to challenge me with more complicated material. We quickly became good friends, and remained so, despite the fact that she soon left ISU to move on in her career.<br />
<br />
When the “rules” were changed again and implemented in 1981, Arlene asked me to work with her on an article analyzing the effect of AACR2 on maintaining card catalogs. At that point I was head of Catalog Maintenance, still at ISU, and my primary role in this project was to gather data and provide it to Arlene, reporting the numbers and types of headings that required changing/refiling, cross references needed, various levels of authority work needed, etc. The result was “Looking Back: Implementation of AACR2,” published in Library Quarterly, July 1986.<br />
<br />
It was a pleasure as well as a great privilege to work with Arlene. She taught me to dearly love cataloging. The training she provided me proved to be invaluable in my later positions as well, particularly in instigating and managing the retro-conversion of some 70,000 volumes in the Rutherford Hayes Presidential Library. Her encouragement has been a blessing to me through the years.<br />

Professor Arlene G. Taylor who has put up her exemplary commitment to the Library and Information Science profession through her successful teaching and research is an erudite beyond compare. She is the epitome of simplicity, devotion, and dedication. By virtue of selfless service, her phenomenal work is an illuminating footnote for generations to come. Prof. Taylor is a luminary in this field, a rare scholar who has produced a large number of devoted students, research publications, books, and articles all of which attest to her scholarly depth and intensity.<br />
<br />
Dr. Arlene G. Taylor’s intellectual works are great reference sources in the field of Library and Information Science. I have been reading her works which are stimulating and educating me since I started my studies in the Library and Information Science. I started my education in library and information science in 2001. I did my Bachelor of Library and Information Science and Master of Library and Information Science in 2001 and 2002 respectively in India. During my studies, I was especially interested in library cataloging and classification. I developed my knowledge of cataloging and information organization by reading books by Dr. Taylor.<br />
<br />
My article titled "<a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/01639374.2019.1707338" target="_blank">Library Cataloging, Classification, and Metadata Research: A Bibliography of Doctoral Dissertations</a>" was published in the first issue of <i>Cataloging & Classification Quarterly </i>(CCQ) for the year 2020. It has a provision to e-mail me if I had missed a description of some doctoral works which I can then update in the bibliography. One fine day, I received an e-mail from Dr. Taylor giving me a bibliographical description of two doctoral works that were researched under her supervision to be added to the bibliography. Thus our communication started and she appreciated some of my <a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2018/07/who-needs-a-librarian-and-cataloger-when-you-have-google-and-internet.html" target="_blank">quotations</a> about libraries and librarians. It was like a dream to communicate with the person whom I admire a lot, whose books helped me in developing my knowledge of cataloging and reaching the place in my career where I am today.<br />
<br />
I tried to read more about her in the information available online. I got an interview of her taken by David Miller which was published in the <i>Cataloging & Classification Quarterly</i> in 2016. At the same time, I continued communicating with Prof. Arlene. In communications with Dr. Taylor, I could trace the history of cataloging in the United States. In her CCQ interview it was mentioned that when she was a child, she made pockets, check-out cards, and date due to slips for all her children’s books and checked out the books to her dolls. Just imagine how wonderful is this to think that there is a girl who when aged between 10-15 while playing with her dolls made due date slips herself and then checked out books to her dolls.<br />
<br />
The knowledge gained by communication with her and reading about her was like knowing about the history of cataloging in the United States which obviously impacted greatly the practice and education of cataloging and information organization all over the world. I thought that all this information should be documented, hence came the idea of this biography and festschrift. I wish all the very best to Dr. Arlene G. Taylor and thank her for her contributions to the field of cataloging and cataloging education.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Prof. Snunith Shoham </b>(PhD UC Berkeley)<br />
Department of Information Science, Bar Ilan University, Israel</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am Prof. Snunith Shoham from Bar-Ilan University, Israel, serving also as a Chair of the Israeli Center for Libraries. I received my PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, Department of Librarianship and Information Studies. Upon my return to Israel I was a senior Lecturer and professor at the Department of Information Studies, Bar Ilan University, in which I served for 7 years as the Head of the Department.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wish to focus my comments on Prof. Arlyne Taylor's international relations and worldwide influence. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Arlene was a lead author or co-author of many widely-used texts, especially in the field of the organization of information. These include the <i>Introduction to Cataloging and Classification</i> (6th to 11th editions) and <i>The Organization of Information</i> (four editions) as well as an extensive publication record of refereed articles, books and book chapters, and research reports. In Israel, her books and publications are extensively utilized in the education of future librarians and information specialists. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We heard from other academics in many Information and Library schools around the world, that Arlene's publications are a part of their academic courses' reading lists, often used as mandatory text books, This is Arlene's forte – the ability to clearly, coherently and systematically explain the theoretical foundations, as well as the intricate details of application of information organization. This has gained for Arlene prominent international influence on the understanding and building of knowledge organization, classification, cataloging and the creation of metadata.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Arlene's publications are compulsory reading for me, keeping me updated with each new edition and there have been many editions! They form an essential part of the bibliography for my cataloging and classification classes. It is not me and my students only, her books are essential texts which were used all over the world.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Arlene Taylor was very active on the international scene. Taylor's international activities include serving as workshop leader, teacher, and/or consultant in Brazil, England, Thailand, and Israel. In Israel we met in 2004 when she came on a grant from Fulbright Senior Specialist Program. She was the guest of Bar Ilan University, while at that time I was the Head of the Department.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the report of her Visit to Bar Ilan University the professional elements are described: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"<a href="http://www.pitt.edu/~agtaylor/Israel/Fulbright/workshops.html">Two workshops</a> and a colloquium were scheduled. The first workshop was titled "Practical Applications of Metadata" and was held on Tuesday, April 20, and the second, held on Wednesday, April 28, was titled "Ontologies and Taxonomies: Theory and Practice." The two workshops were attended by master's and doctoral students from the Information Science department, some faculty who teach in the area, and practicing professional catalogers, database managers, bibliographers, and library managers from around the country. <a href="http://www.pitt.edu/~agtaylor/Israel/Fulbright/colloquium.html">The colloquium</a>, held Wednesday, April 21, was titled "Modern Tools for the Organization of Information." It was attended by many school faculty members and students and also by librarians from the area. A special treat at the colloquium was my being introduced by the late Sara Fine, Professor Emerita of the University of Pittsburgh, who at that time was teaching at Bar-Ilan University. Sara showed the audience pictures of Pittsburgh and the University to show them the place where she and I had taught together for about five years during the 1990s."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Her visit to Israel was also a religious and spiritual experience for Arlene and her husband who are devoted Christians. They traveled in the steps of Jesus and the tour has become a bit of a pilgrimage for them in the Holy Land. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since our first meeting we have remained in contact professionally collaborating in a number of areas. Prof. Taylor agreed several times to judge a number of our students' doctoratal dissertaions, dealing in the area of her expertise.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We also corresponded on a personal level, including her annual New Year's letters, detailing the personal events of the past, as also mentioned by our Egyptian colleague. Arlene's letters were always very detailed, with regard to her family and professional life, including her health affairs. Every family member was mentioned and all this was accompanied with photos of all those mentioned. I would always reply, sending her my yearly report. This yearly custom added to our personal connection and these friendly feelings enhanced our work and professional connections.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">I first met Arlene Taylor in the upheaval over the
implementation of <i>AACR2</i> (the <i>Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2d edition</i>),
which, if I recall correctly, was implemented in 1981 by the Library of
Congress but had been implemented at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign (where I worked as music catalog librarian) in 1979. I
remember that we both were involved in a sort of informal speakers’ circuit at
the time, and that allowed me to learn about the amazing and careful empirical
work she had done to predict what the impact of implementation would be.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I think our earliest collaboration was as part of the ALA
committee known as CC:DA (Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access),
which was in charge of the ALA’s stewardship of the cataloging rules. We found
ourselves on the same (the one true I might say) side of the problem about
representation of works as we both understood it, although at the time the
controversy was about the description of microforms. We lobbied and argued and
worked very hard to convince colleagues that the appropriate path was to
describe the item in hand with reference to any works it contained. In the end
we lost that battle to the Library of Congress, which had settled on its own
internally pragmatic approach. Decades later people involved in that
decision-making admitted their error. Oh well, one might say.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It was the beginning of my decades of research on the
problem that we now know as the instantiation of information objects. My own
interest in the problem arose from the implementation of uniform titles for
musical works, and eventually led me to the research on derivative
bibliographic relationships that occupied my PhD dissertation. It was Arlene’s
comprehension of the details of the problem and her encouragement and advice
that kept me on that path, through my first empirical study of musical works
conducted in her seminar at Chicago and on through my dissertation and
subsequent research career.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But I’m getting a little bit ahead of myself. The other
early interaction between us also took place somehow or other (I don’t recall
the details any longer) in the <i>AACR2</i>
days. I remember that we were both on some panel or other, and while we waited
for the program to begin we were sitting at the table gripping our notes
tightly and chatting a bit. I had just participated in a large study of the
implementation of music cataloging in OCLC. The study was successful in many
ways, but as I told Arlene at the time, it had been quite difficult to iron out
details of the methodology. I remember her looking me straight in the eye and
telling me I ought to get a PhD and learn how to conduct science properly. You
see, she had recently completed her PhD at the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill and taken up a faculty position at the famous Graduate Library
School at the University of Chicago. I don’t recall the rest of our
conversation, but I do remember arriving on her doorstep in Chicago not long
after, to begin an interview at GLS to consider becoming a doctoral student there.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I remember meeting her family, and I remember helping her
complete some chores so we could move along to GLS. I bring this up to
demonstrate the immense generosity with which our long collegial relationship
began. It was on this occasion that I learned that she made her own most
excellent tomato juice and that she knew the magical proper way to fold a
fitted sheet, something I still can’t quite do properly although every time I
try I remember watching her and just being amazed. I think it’s important to emphasize
these recollections here, because the guidance and mentoring I received from
Arlene that compelled and propelled me through my whole career always was
grounded in reality, even when we dared tackle theoretical heights.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I did become her doctoral student at GLS. I remember sitting
in Arlene’s office there (in the GLS headquarters at Regenstein Library) and
discussing everything imaginable but I very clearly remember spending hours
discussing the outline of a theory of bibliographic control, not to mention
details of bibliographic relationships, empirical research and especially the
problems of sampling from catalogs, and on and on. It was a heady time in my
life—hers as well I think. Of my mentors at GLS Arlene’s influence was the most
profound.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I began my doctoral studies using my mother’s handed-down
portable typewriter. I remember working with Arlene on a potential grant
proposal. What I remember most is hand-writing reams of notes on legal pads
until I developed a serious case of carpal tunnel syndrome. Somewhere around
this time Arlene bought one of those new-fangled home computers—a Kaypro. She
even bought a modem! So, when I began the aforementioned study of musical works
by searching OCLC relentlessly I did all of that research from the Kaypro in
Arlene’s dining room. Along the way we had many long conversations and I
learned even more from her watching in amazement as she flew in from school and generated meals for all of us in what seemed like a heartbeat. Eventually I
bought my own Kaypro with Arlene’s guidance and it was from that machine that
my dissertation research was born, and on that machine that <i>Music Cataloging</i> was composed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But, as usual, I digress. After three years or so of
coursework I passed my comprehensive exams and set about composing a
dissertation proposal. Like most of the doctoral students I later mentored I
was in no particular hurry about it until one day the phone rang. I remember
clearly that it was a sunny day and I was in the upstairs of my Urbana home. It
was Arlene, calling to tell me she was leaving Chicago for a new appointment at
the School of Library Service (SLS) at Columbia University. The gist of her
message was that I had better finish and defend a proposal before she left
(excellent advice as it turned out). Various intersecting whirlwinds of
activity took place in the aftermath, after which I successfully defended my
dissertation proposal in time, and was myself hired at SLS.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There we redesigned the entire cataloging curriculum,
separating resource description from subject analysis, the better to give each
its due, but also to separate the “how to” of both from the broader
introductory course in bibliographic control that was required of all students.
That was the germination of decades of education in what became information
organization for Arlene and knowledge organization for me.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Arlene taught me how to teach. I had already been teaching
at UIUC as an adjunct, and I had been teaching individual students to catalog
music in a practicum, but at SLS I suddenly faced large full classrooms. Arlene
wanted both of us to succeed and she gave me every note she had, every lecture,
every exercise, etc. Her generosity was amazing and I never forgot, as I over
the years handed the whole business to every junior professor I worked with. As
for my own teaching, Arlene sat in on my classes and then sat me down and told
me the truth. She said I knew what I was talking about and I was very
articulate but that I tended to hit them over the head with theory until their
eyes glazed over. She told me I had to introduce them to theory gently by
approaching it from examples they could grasp empirically (I don’t think those
were her words but that was the lesson). It was a terrific lesson. I laughed
decades later when some of my doctoral students told me they thought when they
asked me a question in class and I removed my glasses it was because they had
asked a dumb question. No, I told them, it was because they had asked an
excellent question and I had to look inside to think of a way to explain the
answer.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another thing Arlene taught me and I didn’t like it at all
at the time was that male students had an unfair advantage in the classroom.
She was right and although it took me awhile to grasp the truth of the
situation it eventually made its way into my philosophy of teaching. I and my
students owe her a great debt for this most important lesson.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In 1991 SLS was closed (in the aftermath of the closure of
GLS), and by some accident of fate Arlene and I were the last two faculty left
to mop up the remaining graduates. I don’t remember the time clearly, except
that I was furiously working on my dissertation (yes, almost ten years after I
had started it!) and we both were working on whatever would come next.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Most of what I’ve written here began to crystallize for me
when I finished <i>The Nature of a Work</i>
in 2001, and I wrote some of this in the acknowledgments as I became more
clearly aware of Arlene’s influence on my work and my life. I am indebted to
Arlene for bringing me into the theoretical paradigm at Chicago and for
teaching me to approach science with caution but also with joy. I am grateful
to Arlene for the opportunity to sit on the steps at Butler Library during
Columbia commencement and think to myself “oh my goodness I’m teaching here!”
But I also owe her immense gratitude for teaching me to teach and to mentor,
lessons that extended into my decades as a journal editor. And as I hope I have
made clear, it was Arlene’s guidance and faith that helped me develop the
theory of instantiation of information objects that formed the core of my
research agenda.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>

Libraries have always been essential in a process of provision of access to knowledge to the users. In the digital era Libraries are needed more than ever before, as they always strive to meet both the ends by making globally present information accessible to the globally present users. The Internet enables everyone to visit a library without leaving his/her home in order to get his/her book/information. Neil Gaiman perfectly describes what’s happening in digital times: “Google can bring you back 100,000 answers, a librarian can bring you back the right one.” In the backdrop of the aforesaid portrayal of the subject, the importance of Librarians in the present and future eras can hardly be overemphasized. Hence this blog, which is expected to be an important knowledge resource, for the librarians, information scientists, LIS faculty, research scholars and students. One of the highlights of the blog is to commemorate and honor the real heroes of the library profession, to whom the librarians and libraries of the present age owe a lot. Many stalwarts in Library and Information Services profession appeared on the world horizon and rendered yeomen service for progress and prosperity of our profession. Hence this blog post has been created to provide information about the librarians. The entries are arranged alphabetically.</div>

<b><span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: x-large;">Charles Ammi Cutter</span></b><br />
<b><br /></b><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2019/02/charles-ammi-cutter.html"><b> Charles Ammi Cutter</b></a> (March 14, 1837 – September 6, 1903) was an American librarian. Cutter was born in Boston, Massachusetts. His aunt was an employee of the regional library in Boston. In 1856 Cutter was enrolled into Harvard Divinity School. He was appointed assistant librarian of the divinity school while still a student there and served in that capacity from 1857 to 1859. During that time, Cutter began designing a distinct cataloging schema for the library's outdated system. The catalog, dating from 1840, had a lack of order after the acquisition of 4,000 volumes from the collection of Professor Gottfried Christian Friedrich Lücke of University of Göttingen, which added much depth to the Divinity School Library's collection. During the 1857-58 school year, Cutter rearranged the library collection on the shelves into broad subject categories along with classmate Charles Noyes Forbes. During the winter break of 1858-59, they arranged the collection into a single listing alphabetically by author. This project was finished by the time Cutter graduated in 1859. By 1860 Cutter was already a seasoned staff member of the library and a full-time librarian. He became a journeyman to the chief cataloger and assistant librarian to Dr. Ezra Abbot. At Harvard College Cutter developed a new form of index catalog, using cards instead of published volumes, containing both an author index and a "classed catalog" or a rudimentary form of subject index. In 1868 the Boston Athenæum library elected Cutter as its head librarian. His first assignment was to organize and aggregate the inventory of the library and develop a catalog from that and to publish a complete dictionary catalog for their collection. The previous librarian and assistants had been working on this, but much of the work was sub par and, according to Cutter, needed to be redone. This did not sit well with the trustees who wanted to get a catalog published as soon as possible. However, the catalog was revised and published in five volumes known as the Athenæum Catalogue. Cutter was the librarian at the Boston Athenaeum for twenty-five years.²<br />

<span id="docs-internal-guid-c9f34902-7fff-38be-9b04-fb850f21ae91"></span><br />
We invite passionate library professionals to contribute to this section and tell your story to the world. You can <a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2018/10/write-for-librarianship-studies.html" target="_blank">write for Librarianship Studies</a> in three ways as described below.<br />
<br />
<b>1. Librarians' Stories</b> - In this section, we will include autobiographical articles by librarians, catalogers, library and information science teachers, and other library professionals who tell their stories in their own words.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Current LIS Professional Experience:</b> If you are a librarian or working on any designation in some library, then we are interested in knowing about your work experience. No matter you are working in a small library, school library, or in a big university library, we are interested in knowing about them all. No matter if you are holding a very high designation or just responsible for other jobs such as barcode pasting, magnetic tape inserting, or else, every library job is important, and our readers are interested in knowing about all of them. Tell us how your library is organized, its workflow what database it offers, reference desk, circulation desk, serials section, acquisitions section, etc. Write about your experiences and we would be happy to publish that. Again it would more interesting to LIS professionals if you include pictures and other multimedia items with your article. Sometimes it may be against the policy of your library to write about it, in that case, you may do it without mentioning the name of your library, just explaining your workday and responsibilities, etc.<br />
<br />
<b>3. A Day in the Life of a Librarian:</b> You may describe your typical day as a librarian. For example, check this article: <a href="https://www.elsevier.com/librarians/article-news/a-day-in-the-life-of-a-librarian" target="_blank">A day in the life of a librarian</a>.<br />

<b><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2020/07/marjolein-van-der-vegt.html" target="_blank">Marjolein van der Vegt</a></b> - Since 1998 I live in Brazil (being born and raised in the Netherlands) and one of my wishes was to work as a librarian. My grandmother had worked in a library and brought home some magnificent books every now and then when I was a child. Till today I remember one of my favorites was a hand paint-printed book of Alexandre Dumas, the famous Robin Hood. But also, I read many fairy tales, entering the realm of Snow White and The Little Mermaid. And I need to say, I read the original versions, where the mermaid transforms into foam (and yes, I cried a lot as a child, happily). All these experiences, shortly said, created in me identifications. Where I did not understand Show White as a child, and saw it as a beautiful story, nowadays it becomes clear to me that if the cruel stepmother had found love in her heart, she would have been able to live happily ever after. But, since she did not, she suffered and missed the lesson in it all. If the little mermaid had accepted her love for the prince as beautiful and something from her heart to share and not to possess, maybe she would have had other insights into life. But of course, when you read these things as a child, you do not catch the clue easily still. Lacks the life experience needed to understand the meaning beyond words ... ... ...</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div>

Librarians are creating a space that has books that reflect their student's diverse population and spaces that build empathy and knowledge of different cultures and societies. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Keywords:</b> Librarian, Millennial, Change, Growth</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Millennial can sometimes be a bad word in certain situations. It can be used to degrade someone based on their age, beliefs, or emotions. I know I have been called a millennial more times than I can count for not letting old bias continue. I view being called a millennial as a compliment. The millennials are the generation that saw that change needed to happen and are doing what we can to make those changes happen. These changes are the very changes I am making in my very own high school library, making even the smallest impact that can affect the greater good. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>In my twenties, I am changing the way students, teachers, administrators, and even other librarians view the library. The portrayal that librarians wear a bun, cardigan, never smile, and constantly "shhhhh" is the idea that I am trying to break but don't get me wrong, I love my bun and cardigan. I have created a library that is full of fun, laughter, plenty of noise, a safe place for all students regardless of race, gender, sexual identity, or disability. My library is a safe haven for all students with a focus on mental health, celebrating diversity, community, and of course, sharing a love of reading. I have witnessed libraries and librarians who do not see their own bias or know their bias but do not make any effort at all to change. I have witnessed even in my time as a librarian (three years), a librarian with many more years of experience than I say that they do not need to put a book about an African-American student in their library because their school doesn't have that many black students.* These are the very ideas and problems that we need to change about our profession. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>We need books that reflect all cultures, races, genders, sexual identity, disabilities, etc. regardless of if we have students who are reflective of that or not, some of these are items we might not even know or see. We need diverse books that reflect all to build empathy, knowledge, and love. Knowing, learning, and understanding different cultures, races, genders and sexual identity help our society as a whole and could change how we treat each other and how we view each other. Empathy and knowledge could, in my opinion, solve almost all our societal problems. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Changing lives in my library goes beyond books. I am at a low-income school and a lot of my students do not have a lot. One student was labeled as a "difficult student". He gave the teachers issues and caused trouble. In my library, I emphasize that it's a safe place for all students. The "difficult" student was yelling and throwing books in my library one day, I simply went up to him, put a hand on his shoulder, and took him into my office. In my office in my gentle voice, I asked what was wrong and he said that he was upset. He had to wear his younger brother's dirty socks because his only pair has too many holes in them. I took his socks and washed them in my sink. From that moment on I realized that I needed to always have socks and underwear on hand just in case for moments like this. I have followed in the footsteps of several librarians and have stocked the library office with personal items that can help our students physically and mentally. We always need to be that change we want for our society, especially in a role that is the heart of the school. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">I am not the only millennial librarian out there; our numbers are growing vastly and will only continue to grow as we recruit more and more educators to pursue library science. We need to make the change in libraries so we can make the change we wish to see for our society. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">* Trust me, I let them know how wrong they were and reported the situation, no educator like that should be allowed to make any impact on any child.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-28a884dd-7fff-c7a1-d348-f231bc7b8097"></span></p><hr /><p style="text-align: justify;"><b>SEE ALSO</b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2016/03/librarian.html" target="_blank">Librarian</a></b> - Definition of a Librarian and 11 Excellent Infographics About The Librarian highlighting their duties, functions, roles, responsibilities, worth, and importance, with interesting facts and figures.</li><li style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2017/07/library.html"><b>Library</b></a></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2019/01/biographies-librarians-whos-who-library-information-science.html" target="_blank">Biographies of Famous Librarians : Who's Who in Library and Information Science and Services</a></b></li><li style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://www.librarianshipstudies.com/2018/10/write-for-librarianship-studies.html" target="_blank"><b>Write for Librarianship Studies - Guidelines for Authors</b></a> - Welcome Library and Information Science Experts – Write for Librarianship Studies and gain a global audience for your writings.

The first stacks contained papyrus scrolls, which evolved to handwritten books, then printed books; today the volumes found in libraries are stored as printed material, electronic data, and multimedia presentations. Librarians have made a similar transition, from shelf managers to catalogue clerks to the professionals that today oversee the management of and access tools for many forms of media. There has been a single, consistent element for every librarian in every manifestation of the library. Knowledge is only passed on when it can be retrieved; librarians have always held the key.¹</p><div style="text-align: justify;">A <a href="https://www.blogger.com/#"><b>librarian</b></a> is a person who is in charge of or works professionally in a library and is responsible for its management and services. The librarian takes care of the library and its resources. The typical job of a librarian includes managing collection development and acquisitions, cataloging, collections management, circulation, and providing a range of services, such as reference, information, instruction, and training services, etc.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Librarians are trained in library and information science and are engaged in providing library services, usually holding a degree in library science. In the United States, the title Librarian is reserved for persons who have been awarded the ALA-accredited Master of Library and Information Science or MLIS degree or certified as professionals by a state agency.</div><p style="text-align: justify;">In a small library, such as a school library a single librarian may be responsible for managing the overall functions of the library but big libraries, such as a large academic library may have much staff to carry out different functions of the library depending on their qualifications, expertise, and functional specializations, e.g. acquisition librarian, archivists, cataloging librarian, electronic resources librarian, metadata librarian, reference librarian, serials librarian, systems librarian, etc. Based on the type of the library served, librarians may be classified as a school librarian, academic librarian, special librarian, etc.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The increasing role of technology in libraries has a significant impact on the changing roles of librarians. A 21st-century librarian is required to be very much updated of technological changes. New age librarians are making greater use of emerging technologies in the library management and services to make it more popular and useful among the patrons. New age librarians are not mere bookworms, they are high-tech information professionals, and clever communicators, helping patrons dive in the oceans of information available in books and digital records.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><span id="docs-internal-guid-dcd25b03-7fff-4c08-327d-ef6a26565591"></span></p><hr /><p>REFERENCES</p><p></p><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>MasterDegreeOnline, "Infographic: Evolution of the Noble Librarian," <a href="https://www.master-degree-online.com/infographic-evolution-of-the-noble-librarian/">https://www.master-degree-online.com/infographic-evolution-of-the-noble-librarian/</a> (accessed June 3, 2021).</li></ol><div><span id="docs-internal-guid-dcd25b03-7fff-4c08-327d-ef6a26565591"><hr /></span></div><p></p><br />Librarianship Studieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13519873271981032669noreply@blogger.com
