Free Pint talks to Jakob Nielsen

Professional Reading Shelf (2 Items)
Cataloging and Classification
Source: Library Journal
"MARC Exit Strategies"
Roy Tennant writes, "In last month's column (LJ 10/15/02, p. 26ff), I outlined why it is time for us to rethink our most basic bibliographic standards: MARC elements, MARC syntax, and AACR2 (the rules for populating them). This month I'll be looking at various ways in which we can build on our strengths without allowing the past to limit our future."

"Free Pint talks to Jakob Nielsen"
From the article, "Getting access to Web-based information can be a time-consuming and frustrating experience even for the comparatively expert members of the Free Pint community. If you have impaired sight or other disabilities it can be a nightmare. Jakob Nielsen, a principal of Nielsen Norman Group, has made it his mission to enhance the usability of the Web. Lecturing, writing and teaching on the subject have made him probably the best known Web usability expert around."
A Special Note: I Would Like to Congratulate Will Hann and the Rest of the Free Pint Team on their Fifth Anniversary. Thanks for Providing Such a Valuable Resource. Thank You Very Much for Hosting the VAS&ND.
More News: Free Pint and the VAS&ND Received a Positive Mention in the Yesterday's Edition of The Guardian.

Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?


Click to view the article Alacra Compliance adds managerial oversight
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

Alacra Compliance saves time by aggregating information from both free and fee-based sources and enabling users to conduct an accurate federated search across these sources (coined “simultaneous search” by Alacra).

Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

I recently completed a major house renovation project, so my mind has been occupied with building matters over the last few months. In the midst all the financial pain and stressful disruption, I found some interesting parallels with my “day job” as a researcher.
