Hello friends,
The September 2010 issue of /Information Technology and Libraries/
(ITAL), LITA's peer-reviewed quarterly journal, is online and accessible
to all LITA members. Issues older than six months are open to all.
ITAL's main page is at
<http://www.lita.org/ala/mgrps/divs/lita/ital/italinformation.cfm>.
ITALica <http://ital-ica.blogspot.com/>, the weblog discussion area for
ITAL, has been updated with information about the latest issue. ITALica
features supplementary materials not included with the regular print and
electronic versions of /Information Technology and Libraries/, such as
"letters to the editor", updates to articles, and other materials we
can't work into the journal. One of the most important features of
ITALica is a forum for readers' conversations with our authors, wherein
authors host and monitor discussion for a period of time after
publication of their articles, so that you then have a chance to
interact with them.
ITALica offers you the opportunity to discuss with the following ITAL
authors their papers in the latest issue:
"Metadata Creation Practices in Digital Repositories and Collections:
Schemata, Selection Criteria, and Interoperability" /
Jung-ran Park and Yuji Tosaka
"Batch Loading Collections into DSpace: Using Perl Scripts for
Automation and Quality Control" /
Maureen P. Walsh
"Authentication and Access: Accommodating Public Users in an Academic
World" /
Lynne Weber and Peg Lawrence
"The Next Generation Library Catalog: A Comparative Study of the OPACs
of Koha, Evergreen, and Voyager" /
Sharon Q. Yang and Melissa A. Hofmann
"TUTORIAL: Are Your Digital Documents Web Friendly?: Making Scanned
Documents Web Accessible" /
Yongli Zhou
No membership is required to view or participate in ITALica. We hope to
see you there!
