Description odlis.net directed network with 2909 vertices and 18419 arcs (5 loops).
Download odlis.net (ZIP, 62K)

Background
The network Odlis.net is based on the ODLIS: Online Dictionary of Library and Information Science. version December 2000.

ODLIS is designed to be a hypertext reference resource for library and information science professionals, university students and faculty, and users of all types of libraries. The primary criterion for including a new term is whether a librarian or other information professional might reasonably be expected to encounter it at some point in his (or her) career, or be required to know its meaning in the course of executing his or her responsibilities as a librarian. The vocabulary of publishing, printing, book history, literature, and computer science has been included when, in the author's judgment, a definition might prove helpful, not only to library and information professionals, but also to laypersons.

An arc (X,Y) from term X to term Y exists in the network iff in the ODLIS dictionary the term Y is used to describe the meaning of term X.

ODLIS is the work of Joan M. Reitz, Assistant Professor/Instruction Librarian at the Ruth A. Haas Library, Western Connecticut State University (WCSU) in Danbury, CT. Ms. Reitz holds an M.L.I.S. degree (1991) from the University of Washington in Seattle and an M.A. degree (1998) in European History from Western Connecticut State University. Her primary research interests are the history of the book and history of political and social revolutions.

History
ODLIS began at the Haas Library in 1994 as a five-page photocopied handout intended for undergraduates not fluent in English, and students with limited exposure to library terminology.
In 1996, it was expanded and converted to HTML format for installation on the WCSU Libraries HomePage under the title Hypertext Library Lingo: A Glossary of Library Terminology.
In 1997, many more hypertext links were added and the format improved in response to suggestions from users.
During the summer of 1999, several hundred terms and definitions were added, and a generic version created which omitted all references to the specific conditions and practices at the Haas Library.
In the fall of 1999, the glossary was expanded to 1,800 terms, renamed to reflect its extended scope, and copyrighted.
In February, 2000, ODLIS was indexed in Yahoo! under "Reference - Dictionaries - Subject." It is also indexed in the WorldCat database in OCLC FirstSearch.
During the year 2000, the dictionary was expanded to 2,600 terms. On average, it has received over 6,200 visits per month since January 2, 2000.
December 2000: ODLIS transformed in Pajek format and 'cleaned' by A. Mrvar and V. Batagelj.

[news]Testing RDA

LC에서 RDA를 적용하기 위해서 테스트를 하는 중이다.
Testing Resource Description and Access (RDA)

In response to concerns about RDA raised by the Library of Congress Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control, the three U.S. national libraries--the Library of Congress (LC), the National Library of Medicine (NLM) and the National Agricultural Library (NAL)--made a commitment to the further development and completion of RDA. The three libraries agreed to make a joint decision on whether or not to implement RDA, based on the results of a test of both RDA and the Web product. The goal of the test is to assure the operational, technical, and economic feasibility of RDA. Testers will include the three national libraries and the broader U.S. library community.

This paper reports results of an evaluation study of MAP (Multi-faceted Access to PubMed), a metadata induced query suggestion interface for PubMed bibliographic search.

A novel evaluation methodology was used to address the challenges involved in evaluating an IIR (Interactive Information Retrieval) system such as the MAP interface. The most significant aspect of this methodology is that, instead of using assigned tasks common in traditional IR evaluation, it asks real users with real search requests to search with real systems in an experimental setting. Several performance measures were created based on which comparisons were made between MAP and PubMed baseline. MAP was shown to perform better in several of these measures, especially when the search requests had not been attempted before.

The finding pointed to search characteristics as an important intervening variable in IIR evaluation. The advantages of and potential threats to our methodology were also discussed.

Introduction
Arguably one of the most difficult tasks in IR is the representation of users’ requests (Belkin, 1980). Search engine users are known to submit very short and ambiguous queries (Jansen, Sprink and Saracevic, 2000). The shallowness of the representation of user request stands in direct contrast to the thoroughness of document representation. This disparity often results in unmanageable search results for users of a heterogeneous and massive bibliographic database such as PubMed. Several system features of PubMed (e.g. default “explode” function and free-text indexing in title and abstract fields) that aim at facilitating end-user searching tend to increase indexing exhaustivity and therefore favor search recall at the expense of precision. Faced with the unmanageable amount of returned results, users are often left with few options but to hastily browse the first few returned pages.

The enormous size of the returned set creates at least two barriers to a successful user-system communication. Firstly, there is no telling whether there might be documents relevant to users’ needs buried deep down in the returned set. Secondly, the skimming of the surface of the returned set gives inadequate feedback to meaningfully help users’ judgment about the query performance.

The breakdown of user-system communication is especially severe in search situations where users are searching for unfamiliar topics or only have vague information needs. Without timely feedback from the system, users are unlikely to be able to interact effectively with the system, and refine their searches.

To address the communication breakdown, an interface was created for PubMed search that utilizes MeSH co-occurrence information to provide support for users’ query construction. The article reports the functionality of the interface and results of an experiment designed to assess its effectiveness. A novel approach was proposed to the evaluation of interactive information retrieval (IIR) systems such as ours. In the following sections we first elaborate on the functionality of the interface, followed by the research design and procedures, and conclude with the results of the quantitative analyses.

Query augmentation
To alleviate the mismatch of representational exhaustivity at the two ends of IR process, various techniques have been proposed to expand users’ queries, either automatically or interactively. An approach that has recently gained wide adoption is “metadata guided search”, which involves dynamically extracting metadata from the initial returned set for users to augment their queries (Hearst, Elliott, English, Sinha, Swearingen, and Yee, 2002; Lin, 1999; Pollitt, 1998). For literature searches in health sciences specifically, several attempts have been made to exploit term co-occurrence relationship for term suggestion purpose, with terms extracted either from a controlled vocabulary (Doms and Schroeder, 2005), or free-text in the article abstracts (Goetz and von der Lieth, 2005; Perez-Iratxeta, Bork, Andrade, 2001; Plikus, Zhang and Chuong, 2006).

Multi-faceted Access to PubMed
Our approach involves extracting faceted metadata to guide user exploration of the information space similar to that proposed in Hearst et al. (Hearst et al, 2002), with a few modifications made for the specific circumstances of PubMed search. An interface (MAP) was built that delivers the query submitted to PubMed and generates MeSH terms for users to refine their queries. For a massive database like PubMed, it become less feasible to adopt the browse and select method proposed in Hearst’s Flamenco system. Instead of relying solely on browsing, the proposed interface preserves the search mode of access while providing the browsable faceted category in support of searching.

At the implementation level, dynamically extracting metadata at search time could be problematic as the amount of computing time needed might cause a delay. Therefore instead of generating a term co-occurrence matrix on the fly during searching time from the search results, a database of term occurrence data was built beforehand. The term co-occurrence table can be updated regularly to better represent the conceptual relationships in the published literature. The database included descriptors from MeSH term, author and journal title fields extracted from all the PubMed bibliographic records in 2006 and 2007.

As the user submits her/his query though the MAP interface, the top two hundreds terms that co-occurs most frequently with the query term will be indentified and display for browsing. As users are likely to submit non-MeSH terms as their queries, users’ queries have to be first mapped to an appropriate MeSH term in the prebuilt database. This is done by utilizing PubMed’s automatic translation table function (See more on automatic term mapping in “PubMed Help” ). Thus as the user submit her/his query, proper MeSH terms interpreted by PubMed’s automatic translation table are also retrieved in order to identify terms co-occurring with the initial term from our local database. In cases where no MeSH term is returned by the translation table, another search mechanism will be activated where descriptors are extracted directly from the top two hundreds returned Medline records.

Two approaches to term display have been attempted, one simply ranks the terms without categorization (List); the other organizes the terms by the MeSH top-level categories (Faceted-category). Terms are ranked in both methods by their co-occurrence frequency multiplied by its inverse terms frequency.

An empirical study was conducted to investigate the usefulness of the faceted-category version of the interface. Specifically, we would like to know, firstly, how users with genuine information needs will interact with the proposed interface. Secondly, whether the MAP interface performs favorably, compared to the regular PubMed interface. Of particular interest is under what search situations will MAP be most effective.

Evaluation of IIR systems
The evaluation of an IIR (Interactive IR) system such as MAP poses a serious challenge to evaluation methodology. In traditional IR evaluation, other than the system components being compared, searchers, search topics, and their interaction effects with the systems are regularly treated as random variance the experimenters strive to systematically control and minimize. The “Laboratory Model” (Kekäläinen, and Jäärvelin, 2002) of evaluation is very efficient for comparing the effectiveness of algorithms. However, it becomes inadequate for today’s interactive systems whose effectiveness depends largely on active users’ engagement (Belkin et al. 2004). TREC interactive track signifies the early effort to include human subject into the modeling of IR performance (Dumais, and Belkin, 2005). The inclusion of the users in the loop, however, also increases the difficulty in evaluation experimental design and analysis. It has been shown in TREC interactive track data that “topic effect” accounts for the greatest variance in models that includes searchers, search topics, systems and their interactions. To make the main system effects comparable, replicated Latin square design has been adopted where all the treatment levels (i.e. different systems) have equal chance of been “crossed” by the same searchers and search topics. Yet the threat of topic-system interactions remains. In the non-interactive test environment, the issue of topic effects and topic-system interactions biasing the systems comparison has been addressed by averaging performance criteria over a sufficient number of topics (Lagergren and Over, 1998), which is unfeasible where human searchers are involved.

Another inherit constrain in the traditional IR evaluation paradigm is that the systems compared are conceptualized as general purposes tools, without considering for what kinds of search requests it might be more effective. Therefore the assigned tasks are created mostly in an ad hoc manner, without theorizing task characteristics and how these characteristics might interact with the system features.

To better understand how real users with real search requests might interact with MAP, and its effectiveness under different search situations, a novel approach to IIR evaluation was adopted in our study, most notably the sampling of real users’ genuine search requests. Instead of assigning the participants a uniform set of search requests, it was decided to allow the participants to conduct their own search requests in a controlled experimental setting. This was done for the following reasons: firstly, it was feared that, had we used pre-constructed requests, the participants would simply grab terms from the task narrative as query terms, which renders the interface, which is designed for facilitating query construction, less useful, if not entirely useless. Secondly, as pointed out earlier, one of our research questions is to look into the usefulness of the interface under different search situations. To do so using pre-constructed requests entails operationalizing search characteristics with topic narratives, which is difficult to pull through in a highly specialized domain such as health sciences without help from domain experts. Asking the participants to characterize their search requests with chosen attributes such as domain familiarity and whether it is a new or revisited search therefore affords us a rare opportunity to investigate the interactions between these attributes and interface on various performance criteria. Specifically, it hypothesized that, the MAP interface, because of the vocabulary support it provides, is more effective when the users are new to a research area and lack the necessary domain knowledge and terminology to conduct effective searches.

Research design
The decision to use real users searching for real information needs on real systems entails several thorny methodological issues that need to be addressed. First of all, without a set of predefined tasks we do not have the benefit of objective relevant judgment that serves as the benchmark

Table 1. Graphic representation of the experimental design



for traditional IR evaluations. Therefore it is important to come up with valid performance criteria other than recall and precision based on which system performance can be compared. Secondly, the use of real user requests poses further challenges to creating a research design capable of controlling the confounding factors.

In our design, participants were asked to search their requests with both interfaces (the regular PubMed interface and MAP), which makes it a repeated measure design where each request serves as its own control. The repeated measure has the advantage of reducing the error term thereby giving more power to the statistical test. However, it also comes with its own risks, most significantly carry-over effects that might confound the results. To control for possible carry-over effect, the requests were randomly assigned to alternate treatment order, so that any given request would have an equal chance of being searched first with either interface.

Table1 shows the eventual mixed factorial design adopted in this study with the interface as the within-subject factor and type of search requests as the between-subject factor. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the four groups in which they would search their own requests, first on either of the interface, then move on to the other (See Table1). Notice that the treatments for the same request were never received in immediate sequence; this is done so in the hope of further minimizing the carryover effect as the there was always a “wash-out” period between the two treatments to the same request.

It is recognized that, despite the alternation of the treatment order, carry-over effect might still persist as terms picked up from the preceding interface would wind up unduly advantaging the present one. The risk seems larger in group 3 and 4, when the MAP interface was used first, as the participants were likely to be exposed to more terms in these sessions. It is therefore crucial to instruct the participants to start their search with the same query and not to use terms they have learned from a previous session when the request was searched the second time.

Research procedures
A total of 44 regular PubMed/Medline users were recruited to participate in the study, all of whom were graduate students in health and biomedical sciences. They were told to prepare two search requests of their own prior to coming to the laboratory.

The research procedure was as follow: Upon their arrivals, the participants were asked to give consent for the study and fill out a brief entry questionnaire where data regarding their subject expertise, educational status and PubMed/Medline search experiences were collected. An online video tutorial was given to explain how to operate the interface.

Before the search for each request began, a pre-search questionnaire was first administered in which the participants were asked to write down a search statement for the quest they were about to search. They were also asked to provide what they believed to be the most ideal query for the request at this point. Scaled data were also elicited on the characteristics of the request such as their familiarity with the problem area, thoroughness needed for the request, whether the request has been searched before and so on.

As noted in the methodology session, each participant would search for two requests of their own alternately on two interfaces, resulting in four search sessions. As the search session began, the participants first input the original query they had given in the pre-search questionnaire and then were asked to retrieve ten useful records using the interface they were assigned in that particular session. After the initial input, they were allowed to revise their queries based on feedback from the interfaces and the search results. In other words, they were able to interact with the interfaces as they would normally do when conducting PubMed searches.

The participants were told they had 15 minutes for the task, but could stop whenever they had finished. After each session, they would again write down what they consider to be the best query terms at this time. They were then asked to evaluate the goodness of their pre-and post-search ideal queries on a 0-6 scale. This information allowed us to compare, for each search request, the participant’s perceived goodness of his/her query before and after interacting with either interface. Scaled data were also elicited on satisfaction with the results and perceived usefulness of the interface in post-search questionnaire. All their interactions with the interfaces were logged and recorded by screen capture software. Of particular interests are numbers of iterations, number of terms selected and number of records viewed, which should give us a clearer idea about how users might interact differently with different interfaces (See Table 2 for a summary of the research procedures).

Table 2. Research procedure



After both search sessions for the same request had finished, the participants were asked to indicate the degree of relevance of each of the 20 records (10 from each session) on a 0-6 scale and single out records they had seen before. This allowed us to compare the quality of the search results retrieved by the two interfaces. Other performance criteria collected in the post-questionnaire include users’ assessment of how well their requests were represented by their queries (“goodness” of the query), as well as their satisfaction with the search results. The participants were also asked to comment on the usefulness of the term suggestion function and in what search situations they thought the function might be helpful. In the following section the initial analysis of the results will be reported, as the qualitative analysis of the query formulations are still underway, the results reported here will mostly derived from quantitative measurements.

Results
Search characteristics
A total of 88 (44x2) search quests were sampled, which resulted in 176 search sessions as each search session was searched with both MAP and PubMed baseline. Among the 88 search quests, 60 of them were requests that had been searched by the participants before (revisited searches), 28 of them were searched for the first time (new searches). Sampling genuine search quests affords us an opportunity to examine the relationships among different characteristics of information needs and how they might impact on the effectiveness of the interface. Table3 shows the correlations among different attributes of the search requests. Not surprisingly, the original goodness of the query was found to be highly correlated with the participant’s familiarity with the search topic, which is also highly correlated with the completeness needed for the search.

Querying behaviors
As the interface was designed with a view to facilitating query reformulation, naturally we would like to see whether users’ querying behaviors differ between the two interfaces. Specifically, four measures were compared to help us get a better sense of how querying behaviors differ: number of terms added and deleted per session, number of query submissions, and the similarity between users’ original query and finalized query. The original-final queries similarity can be seen as an indication of the effect of the interfaces on users’ queries. The higher the similarity, the less users’ final queries diverge from the original. Jaccard’s coefficient was used as the similarity measure:



Where A stands for the set of terms in the original query and B stands for the set of terms in the finalized query. A paired-samples t-test was conducted to evaluate whether original-final queries similarity differ between two interfaces. The results indicated that mean similarity for PubMed (M =.54, SD =.31) was significantly greater than the mean similarity for MAP (M = .39, SD = .27), t (87) = 3.77, p <.001. In other words, when using MAP, users’ final queries diverge from their original queries to a significantly larger degree than when using PubMed baseline.

Significantly differences were also found between PubMed and MAP with respect to the number of terms added, t (88) = 4.03, p <.001; and deleted, t (87) = 2.06, p <.05 during user interactions, as well as number of terms in finalized query t (87) = 3.00, p <.005) (See Table 4).

The participants were also found to make more query submissions (i.e. each time the search button is clicked) when searching with MAP (M = 5.26, SD = 2.78) than with PubMed (M = 3.74, SD = 2.74), the difference is significant, t (87) = 20.81, p<.001. Despite great disparity in the numbers of search iterations, an equivalent amount of records were viewed between the two interfaces, which was measured by summing up the number of surrogate records contained in the results pages (20 surrogate records per page) brought up by the user during a search session. This indicates to us that, on average, fewer records were viewed per submission when MAP was used.


Table 4. Comparison of querying behaviors



Search performance
A one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was conducted to determine the effect of the two interfaces (PubMed baseline vs. MAP) on the four performance criteria variables: perceived usefulness, self-assessed goodness of the query, average relevance score of the ten records saved, and user satisfaction with the results. Significant differences were found between the interfaces on the performance measures, Wilk’ Λ = .92 F(4 , 167) = 3.79, p<.01.

As the MANOVA test was shown to be significant, individual ANOVAs were then conducted. In the following we report the results of factorial ANOVA that test for the effects of two factors, namely, the interfaces and the types of search requests, on the aforementioned performance criteria. Here search requests were classified by whether it was a new or revisited search. This is based on our hypothesis that the experimental interface is more effective for users who are new to a research area.

The mean and standard deviations for participants’ assessment of the goodness of queries as a function of two factors are presented in Table 6. The MAP interface was shown to do significantly better in terms of the final “goodness” of the query, F(1,86) = 7.88, p=.006), especially in cases where the requests have not been searched before by the participants (See Table 5).

Table 5. “Goodness” of final query (n=88)



A similar pattern manifests itself with respect to the usefulness of the interface, F(1,86) = 13.13, p <.001. The MAP interface did better, and especially so when new searches were attempted (Table 6).

Table 6. Usefulness of interface (n= 88)



In terms of average relevance scores, MAP was found to be only a slightly better than PubMed baseline in both new and revisited searches (See Table 7), though the difference is not significant, F(1,86) = 2.38, p=.126 The type of searches, however, has a slightly stronger impact on the quality of search results, F(1,86) = 3.84, p=.053. Revisited searches produced better search results than new searches.

Table 7. Average relevance scores (n=88)



Similarly a 2x2 ANOVA was conducted to evaluate the effect of the interfaces and users’ previous topic search experiences on their satisfaction with search results. The results of the ANOVA test indicated a non-significant effect for interfaces F(1,82) = 1.82, p = .18, and a non-significant effect for search types, F(1,82) =.61., p=.44. In order to further investigate whether there was an interaction effect between interfaces and types of searches, we chose to ignore the method main effect and instead examined the method simple main effects, that is, the differences between interfaces for new and revisited searches, separately. There were no significant differences in users’ satisfaction with the results between interfaces for revisited searches F(1,116) = .75, p =.39, but there was a significant difference between the two for new searches, F(1,52) = 5.71, p = .021, which indicates that MAP did better in this regard only when a new search was attempted.

Table 8. Satisfaction with results (n=84)



Users’ satisfaction with terms suggested by MAP was also slightly higher in requests that have not been searched before (Table 9), though the difference is not significant.

Table 9. Satisfaction with suggested terms (n= 88)



The analyses that have been done so far seem to suggest that MAP was beneficial to users’ searches, particularly when the searches had not been attempted before. The remaining question is: in what aspect does it help users’ search? In the post-questionnaire, the participants were asked specifically about their perception of MAP with several Likert scale (0-6) type questions. They were asked, if the MAP interface helps their search at all, in what aspect does it help: 1. it helps me generate new ideas and concepts for future research, 2. it helps me clarify my search questions, 3. it helps by showing the structure of the literature in the database, and 4. it helps me manage the enormous amount of search results. ANOVA tests were conducted to evaluate whether the participants’ answers differed significantly between old and new searches. Among the four dimensions, only one significant difference, “help me generate new concepts”, was found between new and revisited searches (Table 10).

Table 10. Help generate new concepts (n= 88)



Types of query reformulation
Detailed analysis of the characteristics of added and deleted terms during user interactions are currently underway and reserved for a future discussion. The analysis focuses on how the expanded terms are related to the users’ original query. Here we present a few examples showing how the initial-expanded terms relationships will be categorized. Our current coding scheme largely concerns two relationship categories: terms semantically related to the initial terms, and terms that represent new ideas not included in the initial queries. Semantically related terms are arraigned in either a hierarchical (i.e. broader or narrow terms) or synonymous relationship with the initial terms. (See Table11). For example, in the search conducted by subject #19 with “tolerance of morphine dosage’ as the original query, the added MeSH terms “pain” and “treatment outcome” were coded as new ideas generated by MAP, as they do not have a clear hierarchical or synonymous relationship with terms in the original query. Another example of new ideas generated can be found in the session conducted by subject #24 with MAP, two new MeSH terms: “environment exposure” and “flame retardants” were added in the final query. An instance of hierarchical relationship can be found in the search conducted by subject #48 with the original query “cartilage repair AND tissue engineering”. Two MeSH terms were added during user interaction with MAP: “articular cartilage”, “biomaterials”. “Articular cartilage” was identified as a narrow term for the initial term “cartilage”, and “biomaterials” was a broader term for “tissue engineering”. For the same search request, another term, “osteoarthritis”, was added in the session with PubMed, which was coded as a new concept. With the categorization of term relationships, we will be able to examine the distribution of the aforementioned relationships in MAP vs. PubMed, and new vs. revisited search, which should help us infer whether and how the two factors: interfaces and previous search experiences, might influence the characteristics of expanded terms.

[Dissertation]A Study on Developing a Faceted Classification Scheme Integrated with a Thesaurus for Literature

Yonsei University, Dept. of Library and Information Science
Dissertation “A Study on Developing a Faceted Classification Scheme Integrated with a Thesaurus for Literature”
Adviser Taesoo Kim [Link]

ABSTARCT
The purpose of this study is to develop a faceted classification scheme with a thesaurus (FCT) to more effectively organize documents by subject matter than a legacy classification scheme, namely, the Korean Decimal Classification (KDC). For achieving this purpose, the requirements of the new scheme are as follows:

1) improving the subject representation power of a classification scheme to effectively represent multidimensional subjects, such as compound and complex subjects
2) representing the characteristics of division applied to the classification scheme
3) specifying the conceptual level of the classification scheme to be suitable for various information resources

In Facet analysis, knowledge structure is analyzed into a multidimensional aspect called a “facet” that provided a device to represent subjects in a logical and detailed method through a facet and phase relation. Furthermore, by linking a thesaurus to the classification scheme, it was possible to share facets and expand the conceptual level of headings through the thesaurus descriptors.

The KDC is selected as the base scheme for developing the FCT and the National Library Subject Headings (NLSH) is used for the linked thesaurus. The scope of the classification scheme is literature because that particular field of study was suitable for applying the facet analysis and link with a thesaurus, but it is not properly treated in the enumerative classification scheme, KDC. Mixed notation is used instead of pure notation to improve the representative power of the classification number for the arrangement and display of the information materials, as well as expanding the search terms during information retrieval.

As a result, the FCT includes a classification rule, facets, a chain index, and a linked thesaurus. The classification rule provides usage of notation system for representing the comprehensive structure of the FCT and subject relations. In addition, six facets, including discipline, language, place, period, person, and form facet, were derived for literature classification and each facet has its own facet indicator and symbol. The features of the new classification scheme are as follows:

1) It is possible to represent compound subjects more clearly through facet relation and to represent complex subjects that can not be expressed in the KDC through phase relation.
2) It is possible to change citation order and transform the structure of a classification scheme or browsing method, unlike the rigidly structured hierarchy in the KDC.
3) It is possible to synthesize the class number without determining the main class because disciplines are treated as a facet (not a basic class), and it is simple to add new classification numbers to the FCT.
4) Mnemonics is improved using facet indicator, facet symbol, relation indicator separately unlike KDC that has no indicator except ‘0’.
5) It is possible to treat an ambiguous subject that is difficult to handle as a facet or phase relation by using subject device.
6) The chain index and thesaurus descriptors linked with facets are provided instead of the relative index in the KDC.

The FCT is limited in that it is developed only for the field of literature and has a complicated notational system. However, the basic framework, such as facet analysis, thesaurus linking, and classification rules, can be applied to other areas, too. Additionally, although the notational system can initially be considered a bit complicated, its representational power is more important than simplicity because this is a criterion for the intellectual and physical arrangement and relative position of the materials. Furthermore, users recognize the subjects of documents through the terms, not the notation, and use a document subject itself, rather than the number, in the search results.

In the future, the proposed classification scheme needs to be applied to additional areas of study and modified according to the results. A follow-up action for developing the classification scheme management system is also desirable.

ABSTRACT
A concept has its own position within the concept system. When we construct a thesaurus, therefore, it is necessary to analyze the concepts and generalize their characteristics so that each concept can find its own position within the concept system. However, the concept has multiple characteristics and the concept system also varies according to the characteristics that determine the concepts. For this reason, if we base the concept system on only one of the characteristics, the concept relations within the thesaurus can be biased toward a certain view and the interoperability of the thesaurus also becomes weak.

To solve this problem, this thesis attempts to construct a thesaurus that enables the multi-dimensionality of the concept and various concept systems efficiently. The subject field of this thesaurus is zymurgy, specifically beer brewage, since brewing words are so concrete that they can be analyzed more precisely within their characteristics. The construction methods are as follows:

First, beer terminology was collected from beer dictionaries and beer style
guides and normalized into a controlled vocabulary. The definitions in the
information resources provided the characteristics of the beer terminology.

Second, the concept was analyzed for conceptual modeling, according to the
international standard(ISO 704: 2000(E)).

Third, analyzed characteristics were categorized into the basic categories,
facets, and isolated by colon classification.

Fourth, a terminological database was constructed using SQL Server 2000
and characteristics were manipulated in order to sort and represent the
conceptual relationships.

The characteristics of this thesaurus are as follows:
First, we can verify the relationships of the terms based on essential and
delimiting characteristics by clarifying the term-concept multiple relationships
and controlling the forms of the terms and characteristics.

Second, we can assign the concepts to various categories according to their
characteristics. This enables us to construct a multidimensional concept system
and reduce the confusion within the complex conceptual relationships.

Third, we can identify the inherited characteristics of the concept with a
range of terms, from broad to narrow. Therefore, it is possible to extract the
proper broad and narrow terms among many related terms according to the
perspective of the thesaurus user.

Lastly, we can transform the representation of the concept system
according to the purposes or needs of the thesaurus user. By sorting or
categorizing the characteristics in the terminology database with various
criteria, we can dynamically show the hierarchical structures and conceptual
relationships.

As seen in the above results, this study suggests that it is possible to
enhance the interoperability and usability of the thesaurus by changing the
facet citation order and showing multidimensional conceptual relationships. To
use this thesaurus practically, we should identify the essential characteristics of
the concept with more clarity. Moreover, it is necessary to precisely deal with
the phase relationships as well as facet relationships.

Key words : multidimensional thesaurus, subject indexing, knowledge
organization, facet analysis, terminology

[Article]Extended Bibliographic Relationships in "Resource Description and Access"

Journal of Knowledge Processing and Management, 8(1/2)

ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to analyse guidelines for the description of related materials in Resource Description and Access (RDA) and to compare them with the bibliographic relationships and field definitions in the Anglo American Cataloging Rule, 2nd Edition, Revised (AACR2R) and the Machine Readable Cataloging (MACR21). Seven types of relationships are proposed (primary, equivalence, derivative, descriptive, whole-part, accompanying, and sequential) based on the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). RDA provides detailed relationships more clearly than AACR2R or MARC21.

[Article]Implementation of EAD 2002 for 4.19 Collection

Journal of Knowledge Processing and Management, 8(1/2)

ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to implement the Encoded Archival Description (EAD 2002) for the Collection of 4.19 Revolution (4.19 Collection). Characteristics and case studies are analyzed in terms of EAD 2002’s design. The 4.19 collection is also analyzed in terms of its metadata structure and elements. Archival descriptions for record groups and series were added because the legacy data of the
Yonsei Archives have no upper-level descriptions. The EAD 2002 document for the 4.19 collection was implemented with xml authoring tool 9.1 based on the EAD 2002 schema. The finding aids constructed with EAD 2002 are suitable for management and exchanges of description metadata.

ABSTRACT
Korea has the glorious documentary cultural heritage including Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, Memory of the World, from old times. But We had been felt into serious situation, it is very difficult to find some records of late years, through rapid changes of society in modern history. Fortunately, in 1999, “law of archives management in public sector” was enacted but It is some difficult to apply to field. Accordingly, We studied archives laws and record management systems, education systems in Japan and China, neighborhood countries and compared them with Korea's. Life cycle of Gathering, Managing, Using records & archives is reflected in China's archives law, “Dangan” and It is useful to referred to Korea. On the other hand, Japan and Korea's archives law focus on administering and capturing records and archives. In case of Management agency of archives, China has a linear managing system from state to regional agency and Japan and Korea have different system in State and Region. We recommend following items ; reform archives law, status of goverment archives, professional education and arrangement etc.

초록
조선왕조실록이 세계기록문화유산으로 지정되는 등 우리는 찬란한 기록문화를 보유한 나라지만, 근대의 여러 격변기를 거치면서 몇 년전의 기록도 찾기 힘든 상황에 직면하는 등 기록문화가 없는 나라로 전락하였다. 다행히 1999년 <공공기관의기록물관리에의한법률>이 제정되어 제도적인 장치는 확보하였지만 적용에 있어서는 여러 가지 어려움을 격고 있다. 이에 우리나라와 문화적, 지리적으로 밀접한 관계가 있는 중국과 일본의 기록관리 제도 및 체계를 살펴보고, 우리나라의 제도와 비교해 보고자 하였다. 중국의 기록 관리법인 국가당안법은 기록물의 수집부터 관리, 활용에 이르기까지 일련의 과정에 대해 체계적으로 잘 규정화한 반면, 일본과 우리나라는 기록물의 행정관리 및 수집측면을 강조하고 있다. 기록물 관리기관의 경우, 중국은 중앙에서 지방 하부 기관에 이르기까지 일차원적인 체계를 유지하고 있는 반면, 일본은 중앙과 지방을 구분하여 기록물을 관리하고 있다. 전문인력을 양성하기 위한 교육제도 또한 중국은 학력교육과 계속교육이 균형있게 진행되고, 단일 학문으로까지 발전시키고 있으나, 일본은 아직 학력교육의 틀이 잡히지 않았으며, 우리나라 또한 시작단계에 불과하다. 중국과 일본의 기록관리 제도에 대한 분석과 우리나라 제도와의 비교를 통해 본 글에서는 법령개정·보완 문제, 중앙기록물관리기관의 위상문제, 전문인력 배치 및 자격에 관한 문제, 관련 교육 문제에 대해 고려할 만한 사항을 제시하고 있다.

[Article]An Experimental Study on Web Link Analysis of the Korean National Archives

Park, Zi-Young. (2008). An Experimental Study on Web Link Analysis of the Korean National Archives. Journal of the Korean Society for information Management, 25(2), 167~181.

ABSTRACT
In this study. web link analysis of the Korean National Archives was performed using LexiURL to show the dynamic flow of the National Archives and to identify closely related institutions that the archives should seek to cooperate with in order to develop an institutional strategic plan. Inlink and co-inlink analysis were performed to identify the related institutions and a comparison was made with other countries, including Australia, England, and the United States. Most of the inlinks and co-inlinks to the Korean National Archives were from public institutions. indicating that relationships with educational or research institutions are weak. Korean National Archives web links related to international activities were also fewer than those of other countries. Therefore, the study recommends that educational functions, research functions, and international activities should be fortified; the Korean National Archives should provide more materials in support of educational and research activities and should promote more cultural interchange among related institutions. Further research with different heritage institutions such as libraries or museums is needed.

초록
본 연구에서는 우리나라 국가기록원의 발전 전략 개발을 위해, 국가기록원 웹사이트의 웹링크를 분석하고, 협력이 필요한 관련 기관을 도출하였다. 웹링크의 수집과 분석에는 LexiURL을 이용하였으며. inlink와 co-inlik를 분석하였다. 그리고 우리의 경우와 비교하기 위해 해외 국가기록원(미국, 영국, 호주)의 웹링크도 함께 분석하였다. 웹링크 분석을 통해서 우리나라 국가기록원의 현황 파악과 발전전략 수립을 위한 몇 가지 제안사항을 도출하였다. 현재 우리나라 국가기록원은 대부분의 inlink와 co-inlink가 공공기관에서 온 것으로 교육기관이나 연구기관과의 연계성이 약하다. 또한 국제 활동 현황을 볼 수 있는 링크도 다른 국가들에 비해 부족하다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때, 앞으로는 교육기능과 연구기능, 국제교류 측면을 강화해야 한다. 국가기록원은 학습과 연구활동을 지원할 기록정보를 제공하고, 관련 기관과의 문화교류를 확대할 필요가 있다. 향후에는 도서관이나 박물관과 같은 문화유산 관리기관과의 비교 분석도 이루어질 필요가 있다.

[Article]A Study on the Application of a CRM-based FRBR Ontology for Cultural Heritage Information : Based on the FRBRoo(object-oriented FRBR)

Park, Zi-Young. (2008). A Study on the Application of a CRM-based FRBR Ontology for Cultural Heritage Information: Based on the FRBRoo(object-oriented FRBR). Journal of the Korean Biblia Society for Library and Information Science, 19(2), 45-62.

Abstract This study provides a reference ontology for cultural heritage information. The CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) has promoted cooperation among memory institutions; for example, it has resulted in the development of FRBRoo, a reconstructed version of FRBR based on CRM. In this study, this harmonized ontology version of FRBR was analysed. Suggestions based on the analysis results include empowered interoperability for information exchange and integration among cultural institutions, as well as designing inference rules that are more comprehensive than original FRBR model. The byproducts of harmonization examined in this study indicate internal inconsistencies of the FRBR model and CRM itself; these should be refined.

초록
문화유산 정보 관리를 위한 참조온톨로지인 CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model(CRM)을 통해 관련 기관 간의 상호 협력 가능성이 증대되었으며, 서지레코드를 중심으로 개발된 FRBR 모형을 CRM을 기반으로 재구조화하여 통합한 FRBRoo 모형이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 FRBRoo 온톨로지를 분석하고 향후 적용방안을 도출하였는데, 그 결과 FRBRoo를 통해 문화유산 관리기관 간 정보의 교환과 통합을 위한 상호운용성 강화와 보다 확장된 추론 규칙을 설계할 수 있었다. 또한 통합의 부산물로써 FRBR과 CRM이 간과했던 정보 자원의 특징들을 새로운 시각으로 인식하고 개선할 수 있는 기회도 얻게 되었다.

[Article]韓国十進分類法の主題表現力に関する研究

要旨
2009年初に韓国十進分類法(KDC)が13年ぶりに改定された. この研究では改定されたKDCの主題表現力を複合主題と混合主題を中心として分析した. 資料の主題をもっと忠実に表現するためにKDCを分析した結果, 助記表の合成記号と主題間の連結記号を追加することで改善の提案をした. この方式は既存の分類表であるKDCの標目と構造をそのまま活用しながら主題表現力を高めることができる方案で, KDC使用者たちに比較的なじみがあるという長所もある. ただ今回の研究では文学類に分析の範囲を制限したが, 今後は他の分野も対象に分析する必要がある.

ABSTRACT
This study suggests new constructions of headings in authority records to improve the conventional method of authority control. In the study, the reference structure between the established form and other forms was replaced by link structure based on access points, and the adoption of standard authority numbers was considered. Additional elements such as using work information to distinguish homonyms and establishment of a notational system for headings, to promote sharing of authority records, were also addressed. In addition, a sample authority records management system was constructed to test the structure of headings suggested in this study. Study results confirmed that management, identification, and sharing of authority records can be considerably improved from the conventional authority control system.

본 연구에서는 기존의 전거제어 방식의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 표목의 구조화 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 먼저 표목의 연결 구조를 전거형식과 그 이형을 참조로 연결하는 구조에서 동등한 접근점 간의 연결 구조로 개선하였으며, 전거형식 대신 전거제어번호를 식별기호로 도입하는 방안을 고려하였다. 그리고 동명이인이나 동명이단체의 식별을 위해 관련 저작정보를 제시하는 등 추가 식별정보를 제시하였으며, 전거데이터 표기체계를 기술하여 전거데이터의 교환과 공유를 촉진시키는 데 활용하도록 하였다. 또한 이 연구에서 제시한 표목의 구조화 방식을 적용하여 전거레코드를 작성하기 위한 전거시스템을 구축하였다. 그 결과, 대표형식을 선정하는 데 있어서의 어려움이 있었던 기존의 방식과 달리 전거형식을 폐지해도 전거레코드의 작성 및 유지에 어려움이 없으며, 전거레코드의 식별과 교환 측면이 강화되었음을 확인하였다.
