This dissertation focuses on the data exchange bibliographic formats that have been used in the libraries since the 1960s. There have not been many changes over the decades although librarians have been calling for them. Since the beginning of the new millennium, there has been a growing pressure for change. The aim of this dissertation is to try to summarize the activities in this field and to outline possible future development. The formats used in the past and in the present are analysed in the first part. It is possible to predict the future development on the basis of the analysis of individual projects and on the basis of surveys. The results of the analysis suggest that these activities are headed to a linked data publication model that preserves the current cataloguing procedures. Keywords: exchange formats, bibliographic data, MARC format, MARC 21 format, linked data, BIBFRAME, Schema.org, cataloguing

The subject of this diploma thesis is the library of the state castle Litomyšl that was created as a product of the state institutions in the second half of the 20th century. The thesis deals with the topic in two fundamental segments - theoretical and practical. The theoretical part provides comprehensive processing of the library history and analysis of the particular unit especially from the topical, chronological and geographical point of view. The paper also focuses on the language, provenance as well as physical condition of the books and especially the graphics of the prints. From a thematic point of view, particular emphasis is placed on the most interesting, though not very numerous, group of religious prints and manuscripts. The practical part of the thesis, which consists in the cataloguing of the fund, brings the greatest factual contribution, especially to Národní památkový ústav that will therefore obtain a complex overview on one of its collections, but also to specialized public, for whom the composition of the catalogue means the possibility of the research use.

Das Internationale Quellenlexikon der Musik (RISM) ist ein internationales Gemeinschaftsprojekt mit dem Ziel, die weltweit überlieferten Quellen zur Musik umfassend zu dokumentieren. Es bietet einen Online-Katalog, der Bibliothekaren, Musikern, Wissenschaftlern und allen interessierten Personen kostenlos zur Verfügung steht. Zunehmend gerät aber der Austausch von Daten in den Vordergrund, sei es von lokalen Online-Bibliothekskatalogen zu RISM oder umgekehrt. Für die Wissenschaft dürfte die Nachnutzung der Daten, die sowohl als Open Data als auch Linked Open Data bereitstehen, in Spezialprojekten von Interesse sein. / The International Inventory of musical Sources (RISM) is an international joint project with the aim of comprehensively documenting the sources of music worldwide. It offers an online catalogue that is available free of charge to librarians, musicians, scientists and all interested people. Increasingly, however, the exchange of data comes to the fore, be it from local online library catalogues to RISM or vice versa. For the science, the reuse of the data, which are available as open data as well as linked open data, may be of interest in special projects.

Die Universitätsbibliothek Leipzig hat sich entschlossen, die bislang mit verschiedenen Systemen realisierten und nur lokal zugänglichen Spezialkataloge für Japanologie, Arabistik, Indologie und Sinologie abzubrechen und Neuerwerbungen sowie retrospektive Aufnahmen im Verbundkatalog des Südwestdeutschen Bibliotheksverbundes (SWB) und im OPAC nachzuweisen. Außerdem wurde im SWB damit begonnen, zusätzlich die Originalschriften im Katalogisat aufzunehmen.

Authority control is the backbone of the library catalogue and therefore a critical library activity. Experienced staff create authority records to assist users in their quest for information. The focus of this study is on authority control as a means of co-operation in academic library consortia using a union catalogue maintained by a Central Office for Authority Control. Literature studies were conducted on three sub-problems: the development of academic library consortia in South Africa, and various forms, characteristics and functions of academic library consortia in general; the characteristics, principals and objectives of authority control; and the functions of union catalogues with special reference to the role of Z39.50 within virtual union catalogues. The conclusion was that existing and new authority records should be made available as widely as possible within consortia through a union catalogue. It is however a partial solution, because not all the libraries within the consortium have the expertise to create new authority records. Two empirical studies were conducted. A cost analysis was done to determine the cost of creating and changing authority records within academic library consortia in South Africa, in order to choose a system within which authority control can be performed effectively and speedily. Secondly, a questionnaire was sent to libraries in the United States to gather information on their experiences with regard to authority control, library co-operation in general, and virtual union catalogues. The United States was the natural choice because it could be regarded as the birthplace of modern library consortia. Inferences drawn from the information received was used to develop the structure and functions for a Central Office for Authority Control in academic library consortia in South Africa. It was found that authority control within an academic library consortium using a union catalogue could be conducted most cost-effectively and timeously through such a Central Office for Authority Control. The purpose of the Central Office would be to co-ordinate authority control within the consortium. Pooling available resources within the consortium would keep the cost of authority control as low as possible. Libraries with the required infrastructure and expertise would have the opportunity to create authority records on behalf of other libraries and be compensated for their services. Through such a Central Office more authority records created according to mutually accepted standards would be available for sharing within the consortium. / Information Science / D.Litt. et Phil.

El estudio tiene como objeto crear una metodología de trabajo que permita tratar de forma normalizada una colección pública de fondos artísticos que no tiene entidad jurídica de museo. El método empleado incluye tanto técnicas de revisión bibliográfica como trabajo de campo para la identificación de recursos en Internet y para la adaptación e importación de datos textuales en una aplicación informática. El trabajo se estructura en ocho capítulos que comienzan con la determinación de conceptos, así como la identificación y clasificación de fuentes de información artística. A continuación estudia las entidades que custodian y difunden la información y las técnicas que se aplican para ello, desde una perspectiva internacional para concluir con el panorama local. El último segmento desarrolla los conocimientos implantando una metodología a través de una herramienta informática y su validación con los registros de la sede del Rectorado de la Universidad Politécnica de Valencia. El trabajo demuestra la necesidad de utilizar en cualquier colección, técnicas y procedimientos probados en instituciones museísticas. De esta forma se garantizaría la compatibilidad de los resultados del tratamiento de la información: los sistemas de documentación de museos. El método implementado concluye la posibilidad de aplicar a cualquier información artística, con sus peculiaridades, unas técnicas de tratamiento estandarizadas. / The aim of this study is to develop a methodology that allows dealing with an artistic public collection which is not an established museum in a standardized way. It has been used a scientific method, including bibliographic review techniques as well as research work, which has been essential to identify Internet resources and to adapt and import textual data in a computer application. It is organized in eight chapters that begin with conceptual determinations, and the identification and classification of the artistic information sources. Then, the work studies the organizations that custody and spread the information and the procedures used for it, from an international perspective to a local view. The last chapter develops this knowledge implementing the method through a computer application and its validation with the Rectorate of the Polithecnic University of Valencia's records. This work demonstrates the need to use techniques and procedures experienced or previously tested at museums in any collection. In this way, compatibility of the results of the information treatment is ensured: the museums' documentation systems. The implemented method comes to the conclusion that it is possible to apply standardized techniques of information treatment to any artistic information, with its peculiarities.

Die didaktischen Voraussetzungen und die informationstechnischen Methoden, die im Formalerschließungsfernunterricht und bei der Erstellung entsprechender Lernprogramme Anwendung finden können, wurden zunächst theoretisch untersucht und dann praktische Empfehlungen für den Formalerschließungsfernunterricht gegeben. Bei der Gestaltung des Fernunterrichts sollten mehrere Lerntheorien herangezogen werden. An Lehrinhalten sind neben Katalogs- und Regelwerkskunde auch die Umsetzung der Formalerschließung in die elektronische Datenverarbeitung, die Formalerschließung aus der Sicht der Benutzer und die Organisation der Formalerschließung zu fordern. Kognitive, pragmatische und affektive Lernziele wurden formuliert. Für die kognitiven Lernziele wurde die Lernzieltaxonomie von Bloom an die weitergehenden Erfordernisse des Formalerschließungsunterrichts angepasst. Daneben wurden persönliche Kompetenzen angegeben. Der Unterricht muss auf die Bedürfnisse der Zielgruppe abgestimmt sein. Zu beachten sind Alter, Bildungsgrad, fachspezifische Vorbildung, Geschlecht und die verschiedenen Lernstile. Besonders Fernstudien bedürfen entsprechender Motivierung der Lernenden. Dafür wurde die ARCS-Motivationstheorie um den Punkt "Freiheit" erweitert. Die neun Instruktionsereignisse von Gagné wurden durch konstruktivistische Methoden zu elf didaktischen Anweisungen ergänzt und für den Formalerschließungsfernunterricht ausformuliert. Die Vermittlung der Regelwerke geschieht am besten durch tutorielle Lernprogramme mit Hilfe von Hypermedia. Bei der Entwicklung von Lernprogrammen wurden dieselben didaktischen Überlegungen wie bei der Unterrichtsplanung realisiert. Die technische Umsetzung sollte in einfacher Weise erfolgen, damit das Lernprogramm flexibel bleibt. Um die Möglichkeit der Umsetzung aufzuzeigen, wurden die ersten beiden Module eines Lernprogramms "Umsetzung der RAK-WB in ALEPH500" entwickelt. / The didactics of distance education in the area of descriptive cataloguing with special attention to computer aided instruction The didactic requirements and the methods of information technology that can be used in distance learning of descriptive cataloguing and in the preparation of appropriate computer aided instruction programs are first investigated theoretically and then practical recommendations are made. In the design of distance education several learning theories should be incorporated. The topics of instruction should include not only cataloguing and standards, but also the conversion of descriptive cataloguing to EDP formats, descriptive cataloguing from the perspective of the user and the organisation of descriptive cataloguing. Cognitive, pragmatic and affective learning objectives are set out. Bloom's taxonomy of learning objectives is adapted to meet the advanced needs of descriptive cataloguing. In addition, personal competences are reviewed. Instruction must correspond to the needs of the target group. Factors that must be taken into account are age, level of education, existing specialised knowledge, sex and different learning styles. The need to motivate learners is especially important in distance education. To this end ARCS-motivation theory is expanded to include the topic "freedom". Gagné's "Nine Events of Instruction" are expanded by methods of constructivism to encompass eleven didactic statements, which are formulated in terms of descriptive cataloguing. Standards can best be taught by means of computer aided tutorials using hypermedia. In the development of these tutorials the same didactic considerations are realised as in the planning of instruction. In order to assure the flexibility of tutorials, the technical design should be uncomplicated. The first two modules of a tutorial "Conversion of RAK-WB to ALEPH500" have been developed to demonstrate the feasibility and means of designing such a tutorial.

In this context, a theoretical model for cataloguing known as Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) was published in 1998. Generally speaking, the cataloguing codes are divided into two parts: one related to description and another to the access points. This work aims to analyse the procedures to choose the access points of personal responsibility of the bibliographic records, in order to relate them to the concepts shown in the FRBR. The present work is characterized as a theoretical search and the investigation resorts to deductive approach to analyse the rules and the internationally accepted principles utilized in the choice of the access points. This search also has an empirical part to collect factual data about the use of cataloguing rules and to compare the registers with or without the use of the FRBR. As a result, it is observed that the cataloguing rules are still directed to the impressed catalogues. However, the concepts presented by the FRBR are related to the automated catalogues. The FRBR enlarge the dimensions of the responsabilities about the content of work and expression, and they translate the social changes to the possibilities of information representation in the bibliographic records. With the FRBR the rules have to be stipulated to facilitate the user activities. This implies in the review of the cataloguing rules, mainly the ones related to the choice of the access point. In this way, the professional of information will pay more efforts to determine which the access points for the user are. Among the uncountable impacts caused by the FRBR, perhaps the most important are to resume the discussion about the cataloguing in theoretical level and to highlight the importance of intellectual work of professional of information. / As altera??es na forma de produ??o do conhecimento e o grande volume de documentos pressionaram e estimularam mudan?as na cataloga??o. Nesse contexto, foi publicado em 1998 um modelo te?rico para a cataloga??o conhecido como Requisitos Funcionais para Registros Bibliogr?ficos (FRBR . Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records). Em geral, os c?digos de cataloga??o s?o divididos em duas partes: uma destinada ? descri??o e outra aos pontos de acesso. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar os procedimentos para a escolha dos pontos de acesso de responsabilidade pessoal do registro bibliogr?fico, relacionando-os com os conceitos apresentados nos FRBR. Caracterizada como uma pesquisa te?rica, a investiga??o recorreu ? abordagem dedutiva para analisar as regras e os princ?pios aceitos internacionalmente utilizados na escolha dos pontos de acesso. A pesquisa tamb?m possui uma parte emp?rica para coletar dados factuais sobre a aplica??o de regras de cataloga??o e comparar os registros com e sem a base dos FRBR. Como resultado, observou-se que as regras da cataloga??o ainda se direcionam aos cat?logos impressos. No entanto, os conceitos apresentados pelos FRBR se relacionam aos cat?logos automatizados. Os FRBR ampliam as dimens?es das responsabilidades sobre o conte?do de uma obra e express?o, traduzindo as altera??es sociais para as possibilidades de representa??o da informa??o nos registros bibliogr?ficos. Com os FRBR as regras devem ser estipuladas para facilitar as atividades dos usu?rios. Isto implica na revis?o das regras de cataloga??o, especialmente as relacionadas ? escolha dos pontos de acesso. Assim, o bibliotec?rio empenhar? mais esfor?os para determinar quais ser?o os pontos de acesso necess?rios aos seus usu?rios. Dentre os in?meros impactos provocados pelos FRBR, talvez, os de maior destaque sejam a retomada das discuss?es sobre a cataloga??o em n?vel te?rico e o realce da import?ncia do trabalho intelectual dos profissionais.

El presente trabajo trata sobre la identificación, catalogación, evaluación, protección y utilización de los recursos de la geodiversidad. Uno de los principales problemas que afecta al tratamiento conjunto del patrimonio geológico es el alto grado de subjetividad. En el presente trabajo se incluye un primer inventario de LIG para la región Cantabria, que se ha utilizado para el desarrollo de las fases sucesivas de evaluación, protección, puesta en valor de los LIG y para el cálculo de los impactos producidos por acciones humanas. Se han desarrollado procedimientos de evaluación de la calidad de los LIG a través de métodos directos (basados en el juicio de expertos) e indirectos (paramétricos) sobre la base de la identificación de criterios de evaluación, de parámetros medibles y de la definición de unos "modelos de calidad". Por medio de análisis factorial, se ha identificado un conjunto reducido de criterios que permite reproducir en un 83% los resultados obtenidos utilizando todos los criterios. Sobre la base de los resultados se han elaborado algunos ejemplos de acciones encaminadas a la protección, gestión y puesta en valor de los elementos de la geodiversidad de Cantabria. / The present work addresses issues related to the identification, cataloguing evaluation, protection and utilisation of geodiversity's resources. One of the main difficulties to carry out such tasks lies in the subjectivity. The work presented here includes an initial inventory of sites of geological interest in the region of Cantabria. Then, a group of sites of geomorphologic interest has been selected to make comparisons between different evaluation methods, determine the degree of coincidence between the ranks of classifications obtained and make recommendations on the most advisable procedures. These methods make it possible to apply transparent, clearly defined criteria which can provide replicable results if applied by different operators and can therefore be subject to external test and scrutiny. The above methods can provide good results using only six parameters that express three significant qualities of sites: scientific interest or intrinsic quality; potential for use; threats for conservation. The type of evaluation methods described has been applied to design a method for the incorporation of geosites into the EIA process. In order to contribute to the valorisation of geodiversity's values, a series of specific proposals are presented for the protection and use of sites of geologic interest in Cantabria.
