OpenURL es un tipo de dirección de Internet (URL) que contiene metadatos para su uso fundamentalmente en bibliotecas. Una aplicación OpenURL es un servicio en red usado para transportar paquetes de información. Lo que se incluye en estos paquetes es la descripción de un recurso (metadatos).
Una aplicación OpenURL es un servicio en red en la cual se transportan paquetes de información. Estos paquetes llevan la descripción de un recurso y se trasladan con el propósito de obtener servicios sensibles al contexto donde se hallen, referentes a dicho recurso. Para permitir que los receptores de ese paquete puedan suministrar los citados servicios adecuados al contexto, cada paquete describe el propio recurso, el contexto de red en la cual está ese recurso y el contexto en el cual se solicita el servicio. En otras palabras, la aplicación suministra unos datos u otros sobre una fuente de información determinada según desde qué Biblioteca se le soliciten.

Resumen: This paper presents LibX, a software module that enhances library access for users by integrating access to the online public access catalog (OPAC) and to the OpenURL linking server into the Firefox browser. Design/methodology/approach - We developed LibX as a Firefox extension. It is implemented using XML user-interface language (XUL) and JavaScript. LibX offers library access through a toolbar user interface, through context menus, and via cues embedded into web pages. LibX can be branded for use in different libraries. Findings - LibX demonstrates the power of client-side technology in providing users with direct access to library resources while doing research on the web. Practical implications - LibX makes access to library resources immediate and effortless. Therefore, it has the potential to bring those users back to the library who in recent years have turned to internet search engines instead. Originality/value - LibX is available for adoption by librarians who wish to provide their user community with enhanced library access.

Resumen: This paper focuses on the use of NISO OpenURL and MPEG-21 Digital Item Processing (DIP) to disseminate complex objects and their contained assets, in a repository architecture designed for the Research Library of the Los Alamos National Laboratory. In the architecture, the MPEG-21 Digital Item Declaration Language (DIDL) is used as the XML-based format to represent complex digital objects. Through an ingestion process, these objects are stored in a multitude of autonomous OAI-PMH repositories. An OAI-PMH compliant Repository Index keeps track of the creation and location of all those repositories, whereas an Identifier Resolver keeps track of the location of individual complex objects and contained assets. An MPEG-21 DIP Engine and an OpenURL Resolver facilitate the delivery of various disseminations of the stored objects. While these aspects of the architecture are described in the context of the LANL library, the paper will also briefly touch on their more general applicability.

Resumen: Reference linking is a broad term that generally means linking from one information object to another. The specific types of linking which have been addressed in most detail in recent years are those having to do with the links between journal articles. These would include the links from citation metadata to the electronic full-text article and links from references following an article (the bibliography) directly to the referred citation and/or article. A basic concept is that there must be a way to identify the work to be ‘linked-to.' A second concept is that in order to ‘link-to' an outside system, there must be an identifiable syntax, which often includes an identifier, for creating a query into that system to find the correct article. In this paper we focus on experiences in linking from an A&I database record to full-text and linking from a bibliography to full-text. Accomplishing this required implementing a system that uses metadata to determine the identifiers and the required elements for various ‘link-to' syntaxes across disparate systems.

Resumen: In this paper we describe a model for automatically generating video documentaries. This allows viewers to specify the subject and the point of view of the documentary to be generated. The domain is matter-of-opinion documentaries based on interviews. The model combines rhetorical presentation patterns used by documentary makers with a data-driven approach. Rhetorical presentation patterns provide the viewer with an engaging viewing experience, while a data-driven approach can be applied to growing media repositories. To date, the modeling of rhetoric has been achieved in a top-down manner using closed repositories, while data-driven generation approaches were unable to implement non-trivial rhetorical presentation patterns. We describe an implementation of our model in a system, Vox Populi, and apply it to an online documentary shot by a group of independent amateur documentarists.

Resumen: We generated networks of journal relationships from citation and download data, and determined journal impact rankings from these networks using a set of social network centrality metrics. The resulting journal impact rankings were compared to the ISI IF. Results indicate that, although social network metrics and ISI IF rankings deviate moderately for citation-based journal networks, they differ considerably for journal networks derived from download data. We believe the results represent a unique aspect of general journal impact that is not captured by the ISI IF. These results furthermore raise questions regarding the validity of the ISI IF as the sole assessment of journal impact, and suggest the possibility of devising impact metrics based on usage information in general

Resumen: CrossRef is an independent membership association for building shared technologies. It has an unusual mission: to improve access to published scholarship through services that require collective agreement among competitors in scholarly and professional publishing. The CrossRef network today covers millions of articles and other content items from several hundred publishers. This article looks at how far CrossRef has come since it launched in 2000 and what has to happen going forward in order for the service to arrive at a truly comprehensive linking network for scholarly and professional content online.

Resumen: Since The University of North Carolina at Greensboro's Jackson Library introduced Journal Finder in August 2001, the service has grown and evolved. Its features and capabilities have been expanded, enhanced, and refined, and a partnership program has been developed. Journal Finder enjoys significant initial success and appears to meet a real need in the research life of faculty and students. Additionally, Journal Finder has revealed several user trends with implications for the library, including the use of print serials, photocopying, interlibrary loan, and document delivery/pay-per-view, and it continues to provide insights and data for serials collection management decisions.

Resumen: The paper includes three parts. The first part offers a review of the debate on reference linking started in the 90ties, of the context, the discussions and its achievements, from the emerging of the 'appropriate copy' problem, through the proposal of permanent identifiers, until the rising of the OpenURL solution, which appears rather close to the library tradition since proposes an indirect linking based on a standard description and aimed at the delivery of extended services to final users. The second part of the paper focuses on a case study, the home grown OpenURL resolver at the University of Pisa: a linking tool under library control seemed a desirable addition to the Pisa library system, where no unique catalogue access to the different print and digital resources was available; it was self developed since linking tools appear to be more effective the more they deal with the local situation (i.e. the more they support customization), and in this case orientation toward the local situation has meant orientation toward the hybrid library, i.e. attention to opacs, traditional services, and not only to identifiers but also to bibliographic metadata. The application has been developed from the Perl script of Andy Powell known as UKOLN resolver, with relevant improvements: compliance to OpenURL 1.0, profile SAP1, interoperability with the local A-Z list of e-journals, inclusion of sources and targets actually subscribed to or used at the University of Pisa. It is not intended for generalization but for availability to the developer community under the GPL licence. The third part shortly traces a review of the newest applications of the OpenURL standard in the context of web 2.0.

Resumen: In this study, we combine swarm intelligence and Web Services to transform a conventional library system into an intelligent library system with high integrity, usability, correctness, and reliability software for readers. We select 300 readers to test this intelligent system and software, and compare it with a conventional library system. It is revealed that 64% of the readers are dissatisfied with the conventional library system, and 93% of the readers are satisfied with the intelligent library system when using personal digital assistants. The software integrity satisfaction was 99.99%; usability satisfaction, 93%; correctness, 95%; and reliability, 95%.

Resumen: The work-set algorithm to automatically convert a bibliographic database into a Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) structure has been developed and operated. However, in case the authority control is not properly performed as in Korean catalogs, it is impossible to FRBRize using only the automechanism. In such a case, a visual check must accompany the process; unfortunately, this requires extensive time and cost. Thus, in this case, it is desirable to cluster work-sets for a large-scale bibliographic database like a union catalog and to share the resulting work-sets with local libraries. To that end, this paper presents a method for extracting work-sets from the Korean union catalog using a semi-automatic mechanism. Additionally, it proposes methods to allow local libraries to apply the FRBR to their own OPAC using work-sets that result from the union catalog.

Resumen: E-journal management tools and services such as MARC record services, A-to-Z lists, and link resolvers are changing e-journal cataloging. This column explores these changes in the academic environment through interviews with ten librarians representing eight universities. Three areas of change in serials cataloging are explored: (1) changes to the MARC record, including how libraries are adding/creating MARC records for their catalogs, the number and type of MARC records being created and linking within MARC bibliographic and holdings records; (2) the manner in which serials catalogers are being informed of changes; and (3) the evolving role of the serials cataloger. Future trends and advice for evolving workflow practices conclude the discussion.

Resumen: The Digital Library Federation's Electronic Resource Management Initiative (DLF ERMI) has served as a catalyst for the commercial development of electronic resource management (ERM) systems and functionality. A variety of companies including ILS vendors, subscription agents, and publication access management services (PAMS) are all involved in ERM development. The advantages and disadvantages each type of vendor offers are discussed. Eleven of these companies were surveyed about the availability, compatibility, functionality, and distinguishing features of their ERM system. These vendors also provided their advice and guidance on how a library can begin preparing for implementation of an ERM system.

Resumen: Standards have everything to do with change. They hold change in check by fixing certain parts of a technology. They also allow innovation to happen in a controlled way by creating an area of certainty around which change can happen. The process of change, however, is itself changing due to the increased rate of technology development, and this is having a profound effect on how we create and manage standards.

Resumen: This study compared two lists of full-text content available in Academic Search Elite. EBSCO provided the lists to the University College of the Fraser Valley. In this study, focus was placed on the accuracy of the claims of full-text content, because the staff and library users at University College of the Fraser Valley (UCFV, British Columbia) depend on this database as part of the libraries' journal collection. Interlibrary loan staff routinely used a printed list of Academic Search Elite to check whether the journal was available at UCFV in electronic form; therefore, an accurate supplemental list or lists of the library's electronic journals was essential for cost-conscious interlibrary loan staff. The results of the study were that there were inaccuracies in the coverage of fifty-seven percent of the journals sampled. Serials Review 2003; 29:11-15.

Resumen: A long-standing problem in library reference work is connecting an article citation found in an index to the article itself. The OpenURL is a new tool that helps address this age-old problem in a world of Web-based information resources. Recently there has been much discussion in the library community surrounding OpenURLs. In fact, a new and somewhat confusing vocabulary has arisen around the whole concept. This article will seek to clarify what OpenURLs are and then explain some of the current implementations of OpenURLs in libraries today.

Resumen: The terms "aggregation," "full-text database," and "full-text aggregation" have turned into buzzwords as electronic journals have become a major resource in scholarly research. For the purpose of this discussion we will define an aggregation as a collection of e-content in full text, packaged and sold as a single product, and accessible to users by means of a single user interface and a comprehensive search system. Generally such aggregations follow the model of a serials vendor or publisher mounting electronic content on its own platform - the vendor acquiring rights from the owner of the content, or the publisher providing access to all its own journals - and then selling the service to libraries in the form of a subscription. A variety of creative pricing models have appeared for such subscriptions, and it is likely that the variety will increase.

Resumen: As the cost of periodicals continues to rise, libraries must consider the value of titles currently acquired or subscribed to. At Yale University's Cushing/Whitney Medical Library (CWML), staff employed an evidence-based librarianship (EBL) approach that combined use data from several disparate sources to make the best decisions regarding the cancellation of specific journals' print format. These best-evidence sources include the following: a 3-month usage study of 1249 current unbound print journals; statistics about 3465 MEDLINE-indexed electronic journals accessed via ExLibris' linking tool SFX; statistics from the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and the American Association of Health Sciences Libraries; and various traditional library statistics.

Resumen: MetaBUS es un proyecto de la Biblioteca de Universidad de Sevilla que va a permitir la integración total del acceso a los recursos de información que la BUS ofrece: catálogo (FAMA), una amplia selección de recursos contratados por la Biblioteca (bases de datos, revistas electrónicas, portales...), materiales didácticos, bases de datos locales, así como los mejores buscadores (Google, Altavista). Por un lado el sistema ofrece la posibilidad de buscar simultáneamente en los recursos ofertados mediante una única interfaz de búsqueda y por otro permite que tanto el OpacWeb (FAMA) como aquellos recursos electrónicos que puedan pasar una OpenURL a un servidor de resolución, ofrezcan enlaces contextuales a otros recursos mostrando información adicional y enlaces relacionados con el recurso que el usuario ha seleccionado.

Descriptores: OpenURL/World Wide Web/Documentalistas/Metadatos/Referencias bibliográficas/Normas
Resumen: This paper describes the development of the OpenURL standard and how it will impact librarians and information technologists. This article is based on information provided via email inquires sent to members of the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) Committee AX responsible for producing this standard. The OpenURL syntax is designed to enable transportation of metadata and identifiers about referenced works and their context from any information resource to a local link server. This allows libraries to create locally-controlled and managed link servers that enable the delivery of context-sensitive linking in and across their collections.

Resumen: For more than five years the Houston Public Library has collected statistics for measuring networked collections and services based on emerging guidelines. While the guidelines have provided authority and stability to the process, the clarification process continues. The development of information discovery software, such as federated search tools and OpenURL resolvers, guarantees that the discussion will be an ongoing one for the foreseeable future. The library has begun to use the data to improve the overall performance of collections and services. As guidelines and instruction develop in these areas, the potential of this data to inform decision making is rich.

Resumen: For more than a decade, academic libraries have been wrestling with the thorny issue of managing the acquisition of electronic resources. Where are we in the continuum from paper lists to vendor-designed management systems? This paper takes a look at several in-house initiatives around the country, commenting on the successes and failures of the homegrown programs built to track, update and manage the acquisition and behind-the-scenes maintenance of electronic resources. Realizing that libraries are now well equipped to identify what dream programs should entail, this paper also comments on how we can prepare for the future of electronic resource management.

Resumen: The growing availability of online journal literature and the license agreements that make such literature useable in an academic environment present educators opportunities for using journal articles in online teaching. The use of online journal articles avoids logistical challenges associated with the use of printed copies of journal articles, particularly when assembling course packs. Technological developments have improved the reliability of linking to journal articles via the World Wide Web. Three linking methods are described: persistent linking services available in online databases and journal collections; the digital object identifier (DOI), and OpenURL. Faculty who wish to reliably integrate links to journal articles in online instruction should be familiar with these linking methods

Resumen: In 2003, the Illinois Library Computer Systems Organization (ILCSO) consortium convened a task force to recommend a set of consortial standards for cataloging electronic resources in its new Voyager integrated library management system (ILMS). The CatER group faced the task of producing proposals that would embrace coherently a variety of local practices, and do so within a distributed system architecture. In the course of its work, CatER considered the interplay of many factors, including historical practice, user expectations, MARC standards, system functionality, conflicting cataloging philosophies, and the impact of new technologies. This paper summarizes some instructive aspects of the group's deliberations and elaborates upon the main themes that emerged.

Resumen: Michael Norman, head of serials cataloging at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) library, describes his library's development of an integrated management system for serials, the Online Research Resources (ORR). The ORR was designed to draw together and deliver to the public a wide range of information related to the library's serial holdings that previously could only be obtained by consulting a number of sources. With a single search, UIUC patrons can now consult the ORR for serials information such as variant titles, online availability, subject categories, print summary statements, ISI impact factor, where the title is indexed, and whether it is peer reviewedGÇöan innovation sorely needed and highly welcomed by librarians and patrons alike.

Resumen: El propósito de este artículo es estudiar las tecnologías que hacen posible el acceso abierto y la preservación de los documentos digitales. Por un lado, se analiza la Open Archives Initiative (OAI) que se ha desarrollado para posibilitar el acceso al contenido de archivos distribuidos, y sus componentes: los Proveedores de Datos, los Proveedores de Servicios y el protocolo OAI-PMH. Éste se creó para la extracción normalizada de metadatos de los archivos electrónicos, asegurando con ello la infraestructura para la preservación y la interoperabilidad entre archivos, independientemente de las organizaciones a las que pertenezcan o de donde se encuentren. También se analiza el papel de los enlaces y los metadatos en el acceso abierto, en concreto CrossRef, DOI y OpenURL Por otro lado, se analiza el estándar del modelo de referencia Open Archival Information System (OAIS) para un sistema abierto de información en archivos, cuya doble finalidad es la preservación y el acceso a largo plazo de la información en formato digital, obviando los previsibles cambios tecnológicos. Estas dos iniciativas, OAI y OAIS, tienen un interés generalizado para las distintas instituciones académicas y para la información científica de las diferentes áreas del conocimiento.

Resumen: This paper introduces the Bison-Futé model, a conceptual generalization of the OpenURL framework for open and context-sensitive reference linking in the web-based scholarly information environment. The Bison-Futé model is an abstract framework that identifies and defines components that are required to enable open and context-sensitive linking on the web in general. It is derived from experience gathered from the deployment of the OpenURL framework over the course of the past year. It is a generalization of the current OpenURL framework in several aspects. It aims to extend the scope of open and context-sensitive linking beyond web-based scholarly information. In addition, it offers a generalization of the manner in which referenced items -- as well as the context in which these items are referenced -- can be described for the specific purpose of open and context-sensitive linking.

Resumen: This paper provides insights into the concepts underlying the OpenURL framework for open reference linking in the web-based scholarly information environment. The discussion starts by briefly reiterating the problems with reference linking that were initially described and later addressed as part of the SFX research. Some notions crucial to the understanding of the issues at stake are briefly described: extended service-links, closed and non-context-sensitive linking, open and context-sensitive linking. Then, the paper details the OpenURL framework and reports on its current deployment in the scholarly information environment. As an illustration of the penetration of the OpenURL framework, special attention is accorded to a prototype in which the OpenURL framework is integrated with the DOI/CrossRef linking solution.

Resumen: Providing access to a wealth of information is a fundamental role of the library. The proliferation of e-journals and aggregate databases has altered the nature of serials collections and the responsibilities of the librarian. To develop a complete perception of current e-journal management, the authors created a survey for small to medium-sized libraries. The survey notes the lack of a unified approach and suggests the need for standards in this area.

Descriptores: OpenURL/Bibliotecas digitales/ Sistemas abiertos
Resumen: Reports on the ground-breaking work by Herbert Van de Sompel while associated with Ghent University, Belgium, and at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, which has led to the creation of an open linking framework for scholarly research. The open linking framework proposed by Van de Sompel puts libraries firmly in control, allowing them to determine the scope of their institution's interlinked research environment both in terms of extent and range of link services offered to their users. It places librarians in the "trail-blazers" profession, predicted by Vannevar Bush in 1945: they enthuse in the task of establishing useful links between resources. The creation of such an open linking environment requires the collaboration of all the stakeholders in the information industry; and underlying the success of this is an emerging standard, the OpenURL, now on a fast track path to acceptance by NISO. Van de Sompel's research work led to the development of the SFX server technology, which was demonstrated in operation at both the Ghent University and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Ex Libris subsequently purchased the SFX server technology from Ghent University in early 2000.

Resumen: This paper describes a context sensitive service architecture for digital object dissemination based on OpenURL and MPEG-21 Digital Item Adaptation (DIA). This architecture entails representing service requests using the OpenURL ContextObjects and conveying the ContextObject Representations with the OpenURL Transport. The rich expressiveness of the Usage Environment Description (UED) tool defined in the MPEG-21 DIA standard can then be incorporated into the OpenURL ContextObject by means of OpenURL extensibility mechanism, and the MPEG-21 DIA adaptation engine can be used to construct highly customizable and adaptive context sensitive dissemination services for institutional repositories.
