6. Some definitions Library (Oxford Reference Online) A building or room containing collections of books, periodicals, and sometimes films and recorded music for use or borrowing by the public or the members of an institution Digital Library (Wikipedia) – is a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible by computers. The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer networks. A digital library is a type of information retrieval system. 6 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

7. Context Towards a digital world: print vs online – Traditional print/physical collections: Books, journals, theses, reports, standards… Physical item, description, location – E-resources: E-books, e-journals, multimedia (videos, photos…), e- document… File, description, link, content ++  Evolution of information retrieval 7 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

8. 2. Information system at CERN and in particle physics CDS and Inspire 8 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

9. Particle physics and CERN Particle physics – Aims to understand how the Universe works – Small but tightly organized worldwide community – Experimental vs theoretical CERN: Research Institute in Particle Physics – LHC (Large Hadron Collider) – 2500 staff + 10,000 users coming from everywhere in the world Need fast communication to distribute research result – Publication in journals, too long process – Preprint communication – From mail to arxiv.org 9 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

10. Open access Traditional publication model: – Subscription, purchase, controlled access Open Access: – Open Access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge to the reader, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. – Green OA, ex. Institutional repositories (CDS, JINR..) – Gold OA, OA to published articles 10 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

11. CERN Scientific Information Service Mission – Provide information resources in ALL fields of relevance to CERN – Ensure scientific information produced at CERN is safeguarded and made publicly available. – Distribute CERN publications Audience – Particle physicists (from CERN and from outside), Engineers, technicians, Computer scientists, Administrative staff 11 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

23. Marc 21 Metadata: data about data, record description MARC: MAchine Readable Cataloguing, international standard for representing and communicating bibliographic records, developed in the 60s MARC21: redesigned MARC for the 21 st century – Is based on the ANSI standard Z39.2, which allows users of different software products to communicate with each other and to exchange data. XML-MARC: XML schema based on MARC21 23 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

24. Marc 21  Author  Title  Identifier 24 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

25. MARCxml  Title  Author  Identifier 25 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

26. Other standards Metadata: – MARC, Dublin Core, BibTex… Identifiers: – DOI, ISBN, Barcodes… Data exchange protocols: – Z39.50, OAI-PMH Full text and coding: – Xml, PDF, PDF/a… 26 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS

27. Why is this important? Retrieve information – Identification and searchability Preservation – Ensure the information will be readable by another machine / in 20 years time (?) Interoperability / Information integration – Transfer (convert) data easily to another catalogue – Extract information and re-use it 27 JINR / CERN Grid and advanced information systems 2012 Anne Gentil-Beccot CERN Library GS/SIS
