- Abstract:
- Even while many academic health sciences libraries are increasingly becoming immersed in clinical and translational science, systematic reviews and other institutional endeavors, historical and genealogical questions as well as projects continue to thrive. The scope of the work can be varied and challenging, involving many interested players and stakeholders, both internal and external. How might the formula of librarians, evidence, or proof apply in the case of historical queries and work when staffing devoted to activities is not full-time, and also interim or transitional? The song title "Time Waits For No One" (Rolling Stones, 1974) aptly describes the juggling act of addressing inquiries, moving things along, trying to be a good steward, documenting work done, and participating in planning for future traditional format and digital scenarios. Can any health sciences librarian step in to do this work if needed? Where does one begin? How does one identify a particular library’s treasures? How does one provide evidence of the value of this area of the library’s work? In this poster, some logs and visualizations will represent a case study of one institution’s Special Collections and related historical work of the past year, some treasures discovered, and some lessons learned that might resonate with others. One wants to change the words of the song, “The Middle of the Road is Trying to Find Me” (Pretenders, 1984) to be the more pro-active acclamation: “I am trying to find the middle of the road and will go down it with purpose”.

- Abstract:
- It is understood that in the current library ecosystem, catalogers must be willing to adapt to new semantic web environment while keeping in mind the crucial library mission providing efficient access to information. How could catalogers transform their jobs in order to enable library users to retrieve information more effectively in the age of semantic web? Researchers have argued that catalogers have the fundamental skills to successfully work with and repurpose the metadata originally created for use in traditional library systems by utilizing various programing languages. In the new environment their jobs will require new tools and new systems but the basic skills of organization of information, knowledge of commonly used access points, and an ever growing knowledge of information technology systems will still be the same. This presentation will stress the role of catalogers in bringing the data silos down, merging, augmenting, and creating interoperable data that can be used not just in library specific systems, but in various other systems. Catalogers indispensable knowledge of controlled vocabularies, authority aggregators, metadata creation, metadata reuse, taxonomies, and data stores makes it all possible. We will demonstrate how catalogers knowledge can be leveraged to design an institutional repository and/or a researchers profiling system, create semantic web compliant data, create ontologies, utilize unique identifiers, and (re)use data from legacy systems.
