1 I have used several approaches in gathering information:

1) reviewing of the professional literature on library automation, print and online, located using the LISA, Current Cites, BUBL Journals and Library Automation Bibliography databases and through other Web searches

2) conducting interviews with vendors’ representatives, by appointment and at trade shows: Systems and Services for Small Libraries (British Library, St Pancras, 20th March 2001, and Internet Librarian, Olympia, March 26th-28th, 2001. Vendors’ representatives were asked “What do you see as the major industry trends? and “What is special about your system?”

3) perusing the discussions on library automation mailing lists: Webcat-L (http://library.wustl.edu/~listmgr/webcat-l/), Autocat (http://ublib.buffalo.edu/libraries/units/cts/autocat/),

Pacs-L(http://info.lib.uh.edu/pacsl.html), Web4Lib (http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/Web4Lib/), ils (http://www.topica.com/lists/ils) and XML4Lib (http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/XML4Lib/)

4) attending the final MALIBU seminar on hybrid library developments at King’s College London, 26th March 2001.




2 cf. CBDi Forum 19 September 2002, Beyond the component-based process. At http://www.cbdiforum.com/ or http://searchwebservices.techtarget.com/ [28/10/02]: “Web services are in the process of realising the vision that was originally set for [software] components…”

3 The product, ReadlingListDirect, is sold as an adjunct to major ILS

8 The current version of the ZiG Holdings Schema (1.2) is described at http://lcweb.loc.gov/z3950/agency/defns/holdings.html [7/12/02]

9 SOAP: see below, under “Web services”

10 Thus the xml.org software pages: http://xml.coverpages.org/software.html

11 See http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/sgmlnew.html

12 More details are given at the xml.org XML query pages: http://www.oasis-open.org/cover/xmlQuery.html

13 A browser XML display support chart may be found at http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/05/03/browserchart/ . A guide to XML software can be found at http://wdvl.internet.com/Software/XML/index.html

14 The issue is treated fairly by Johnson, Bruce Chr. XML and MARC: which is right? Cataloging and Classification Quarterly 2001 32 (1)81-90. Available at http://elane.stanford.edu/docs/johnson.pdf [7/12/02]

The discussion by de Carvalho and Cordeiro (2002) is noteworthy, as are the comments of Yeates (2002)



15 The OAI home page is at http://oairsv.nsdll.cornell.edu/

16 The Dublin Core MetaData Initiative home page is at http://dublincore.org

17 I am not considering here object databases

18 The issues are discussed in more detail by e.g. Sholtz (2002), Johnston (2002), and Mertz (2001)

19 A system overview of ALADIN may be found at http://www.wlrc.org/comput.htm [26/10/02]

20 Within the ebrarian system (ebrary.com) one has a link to the full text from the OPAC record; the table of contents, however, is not really held within the library system itself.
