    "France in the Year 2000 (XXI century) - a series of futuristic pictures by Jean-Marc Côté and other artists issued in France in 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1910. Originally in the form of paper cards enclosed in cigarette/cigar boxes and, later, as postcards, the images depicted the world as it was imagined to be like in the year 2000. There are at least 87 cards known that were authored by various French artists, the first series being produced for the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris. "

EXAGONO BIBLIOTECARIO - 4 views

  •  
    El siglo XVII marca el inicio de la era del catálogo como lista de localización. Este es un cambio muy importante, pero los catálogos presentan aún numerosos problemas como instrumentos de recuperación, debido a la ausencia de principios generalmente aceptados para su compilación. Es en el siglo XIX cuando comienzan a buscarse enfoques más sistemáticos en la compilación de catálogos, y también empieza a plantearse de manera explícita la discusión sobre cuál es la función que debe cumplir el catálogo. Podemos trazar los antecedentes de esa discusión hasta las acaloradas discusiones que rodearon la compilación de un nuevo catálogo para la biblioteca del Museo Británico a mediados de siglo.

  •  
    La automatización hace muchos años dejó de ser una moda y se convirtió en una necesidad para las bibliotecas. La tecnología se transformó en una herramienta indispensable para el buen desempeño de los procesos y servicios, así como para el intercambio de información con otras bibliotecas. Entre los avances tecnológicos con un mayor impacto sobre las unidades de información se encuentra Internet, un medio de intercambio de información con potencialidades insospechadas, del que las bibliotecas pueden aprovecharse para difundir sus colecciones a diversas partes del mundo

Bibliotech: 6 concerns about trends in digital collection development - 1 views

  • Librarians feel compelled to acquire eContent from only one distributor because it is too confusing – for them, for students, for teachers, for business managers - to purchase eContent from a variety of distributors, thus materials selection is driven by who they buy from, not what a
  • igns with the curriculum. This is a classic example of the tail wagging the dog.
  • It is our job to develop our collections, aligning them with our school/district’s curriculum – not to buy ready-made packages from vendors.  It is our job to create, instructional materials, and to determine how to best assess our students’ learning.  This requires granular knowledge of our patron base, our curricula, and our collections. You can't fake this. It takes a long time to build that knowledge base. If we relinquish these responsibilities to commercial interests, we literally sell out our own profession.

  • eContent requires meticulous, patron-aware (rather than traditional) cataloging.  It is virtually (no pun intended) impossible to “display” eContent. There is no way to physically put it in the hands of students, if students are using their own technology. This is not happening for a few reasons: Since vendors and library management systems have made it possible to import MARC records, librarians, as a whole, have been falling out of the cataloging practice. Cataloging is time consuming, and tedious work. Cataloging, as we learned it, doesn’t work for our students. We have to reinvent it. For example, at New Canaan High School, we add the project name as a subject heading to each title in the eCollection that supports it. 
  • In BYOD programs, library programs should be undergoing significant instructional transformations that evolve as students’ facility with mobile technology increases. The ratio of print to digital content should be contingent upon students’ ability to access eContent. Developing a system to calculate this would help school librarians make sound decisions about format choices."
