Scholarly Information Practices in the Online Environment

O cibertecário alertou via twitter (sim, é verdade, o cibertecário Eloy Rodrigues dos SDUM já anda pelo micro-blogging – isso é muito bom) para um documento publicado este mês - “Scholarly Information Practices in the Online Environment Themes from the Literature and Implications for Library Service Development”. Gravei imediatamente na pen e na viagem para casa liguei o portátil e fui dar uma vista de olhos. Sem dúvida um texto a ler para quem actua no domínio da oferta de serviços digitais de informação bibliográfica e literatura científica, podendo encontrar aqui caminhos de reflexão e acção.

The question facing service developers, then, is not what services need to be offered digitally, but rather how do we proceed in the long term to move all services to an e-research platform. A productive first step in developing a comprehensive set of development aims is to assess each of the identified scholarly information activities and their associated primitives in regard to these three questions:
1. What resources and functions should be provided by research libraries?
2. What distinct disciplinary research practices need to be accommodated?
3. How should research, design, and development be prioritized within and across activities?
