Abstract

With recent developments in digital facsimile technology, its use for interlibrary communication is being re‐examined by some librarians. Faster communications speeds, better quality of reproduction, and increased standardization of equipment are among the advantages of the new generation digital equipment. These two reports from Columbia University's Law Library and the Pacific Northwest Library Facsimile Network focus on different concerns. Tracy's study emphasizes equipment selection criteria while DeJohn's describes operational problems and considerations in actual use.

Abstract

Many of the fatuities and disasters attending the introduction of computers into Library and Information Services (LIS) can be ascribed to the ill‐conceived notion that intellectual analysis both of the subjects of documents and of enquiries for information was no longer needed, that the machine would perform all the necessary concept relationships in short order and without human intervention. Anyone who has patiently watched Prestel clanking away in search of cricket scores will appreciate the fallacy well enough.

Abstract

Many scholarly articles acknowledge input from colleagues, mentors and trusted assessors. This study explores the social function and cognitive significance of acknowledgements. A six category typology was developed and applied to 444 acknowledgements which were carried by research articles in JASIS (1970–1990). It is proposed that acknowledgements and citations should be used conjointly in the assessment of research performance and in disciplinary exegesis.
