Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate how individuals assess Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) transliterated bibliographic information on current library catalogs. Two separate studies, a survey and an experiment, were conducted using the WorldCat system. Users noted that Romanization has many issues which can inhibit user’s ability to understand the transliterated bibliographic information even when it is in the person’s own native language and even when the individual had extensive experience with transliteration systems. The experimental results also supported these findings: participants had better results and satisfaction when looking for information written in English than when searching for transliterated information written in their native language. Implications for future research suggests a need to investigate user preferences for translation vs. transliteration of bibliographic information. This study proposes consideration of using English translation as a parallel link with CJK Romanization for bibliographic information.

Abstract

This study aims to provide a method of extracting the most recent information on US patent documents. An HTML paring technique that can directly connect to the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) Web page is adopted. After obtaining a list of 50 documents through a keyword searching method, this study suggested an algorithm, using HTML parsing techniques, which can extract a patent number, an applicant, and the US patent class information. The study also revealed an algorithm by which we can extract both patents and subsequent patents using their closely connected relationship, that is a very distinctive characteristic of US patent documents. Although the proposed method has several limitations, it can supplement existing databases effectively in terms of timeliness and comprehensiveness.

본 연구에서는 2000년부터 2009년까지 10년 동안 국내의 학술지에 발표된 사회 연결망 분석과 관련된 논문들을 대상으로 하여 연도별 연구논문 추이와 학문분야별로 구분하여 연구동향을 분석하였다. 연구결과 사회 연결망 분석을 적용한 연구는 총 163편으로서 연차적으로 증가하여 수행되고 있으며, 특히 최근에 많은 연구들이 발표되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 사회연결망 분석은 다양한 분야에서 적용되고 있었고 특히 경영학, 교육학, 행정학 분야 등에서 많이 적용되고 있는 것으로 나타났으며 단독연구보다는 공동연구가 많은 것으로 나타났다. 문헌정보학 분야에서는 웹계량정보학을 포함한 계량정보학 분야에서 최근 들어 상대적으로 많이 사용되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 정보학 영역에 있어 사회 연결망 분석의 접목 가능성을 확인하고, 향후 사회 연결망 분석을 정보학에 활용하기 위한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Abstract

In this study, we analyzed the research trend of social network analysis. We investigated how this topic can be linked to the information science. We analyzed 163 articles that were retrieved from searching “social network analysis” in the keyword search field from 2000 to 2009. The study revealed the fast growth of the research of social network analysis in recent years. Also, the study showed that social network analysis has been applied to many cognate disciplines including management science, education science, and administration science. Finally, the study showed that social network analysis is a field equally important to information science as to other disciplines. Particularly, the study demonstrated that social network analysis can be applied to bibliometrics, including webmetrics.

본 연구에서는 FRBR의 저작 단위로 태그(tag)가 부여되고 있는 LibraryThing에 나타난 태그를 활용하여, 소설(Fiction) 분야 태그들의 특성, 패턴의 형식적인 측면과 동시에 태그의 내용 분석을 시도하였다. 저작의 서지사항 기술 용어, LCSH 용어와 비교하여 관련 정도를 파악하였고, 이에 포함되지 않는 기타 태그의 출처는 어디인지, 저작의 어떤 측면을 표현하고 있는지, 저작과 연계하여 태그의 용어를 살펴보았다. 특히 소설이란 한 분야로 한정함으로써, 소설만이 가지는 특성인 소설의 3요소(주제, 구성, 문체), 소설 구성의 3요소(인물, 사건, 배경)를 반영한 태그를 파악하여, 향후 소설 정보의 조직 및 검색 요소로서 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주었다. 이를 통해 기존의 색인어를 보완하는 폭소노미 태그의 역할을 규명하고 태깅시스템이 나아갈 새로운 방향을 제시하였다.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the properties of the tags used in the fiction genre, the structural aspect of the patterns and the contents of the tags by utilizing LibraryThing, where the tags are assigned in work units of FRBR. A comparative analysis was conducted in terms of the level of association between the descriptive terms in bibliography and LCSH terms. The study also examined the sources of the tags not included in the bibliographic descriptions or LCSHs, what aspects of work they represented, and the terms used as tags in relation to the work. By restricting the study to a single genre, a number of tags that reflected the characteristics of fiction (three elements of the fiction which are theme, plot, style and three elements of the fiction composition which are character, event, setting) were extracted. This study finds out the role of the tag making up the taxonomy and proposes a new direction for the tagging system by demonstrating the possibility of using tags as facets in information organization and retrieval.
