This paper explores the relative contribution of different parts of digitized and OCR'ed books towards effective retrieval. The examined parts include the entire content of books, book headings, book titles, and table of content entries. Results show that indexing the headers and titles of books is nearly as effective as indexing the entire contents of books. These results indicate that certain portions of the books, specifically titles and headers, are more valuable than other parts of books. This is akin to web search where hypertext and page titles are more valuable to index than the rest of the webpage. Also, using a combination of evidence approach provides further improved retrieval effectiveness compared to using any portion of the book in isolation.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122005331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was an important aha moment early on when I was trying to understand the essential nature of books as a medium. The breakthrough came when i stopped thinking about the physical form or content of books and focused instead on how they are used. At that time print was unique compared to other media, in terms of giving its users complete control of the sequence and pace at which they accessed the contents. The ability to re-read a paragraph until its understood, to flip back and forth almost instantly between passages, to stop and write in the margins, or just think — this affordance of reflection (in a relatively inexpensive portable package) was the key to understanding why books have been such a powerful vehicle for moving ideas across space and time. I started calling books userdriven media — in contrast to movies, radio, and television, which at the time were producer-driven. Once microprocessors were integrated into audio and video devices, I reasoned, this distinction would disappear. However — and this is crucial — back in 1981 I also reasoned that its permanence was another important defining aspect of a book. The book of the future would be just like the book of the past, except that it might contain audio and video on its frozen \"pages.\" This was the videodisc/cdrom era of electronic publishing.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129228225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Asian University for Women (AUW), a new university in Chittagong, Bangladesh, will open in September 2009. It must make a decision regarding the investment to be made in research resources to support the university. Mass digitization efforts now make it possible to consider establishing a research library that consists primarily of digital resources rather than print. There are, however, many issues that make this consideration quite complex and far from certain. In this paper we explore the issues at a preliminary level. We focus on four broad perspectives in order to begin addressing the complex interactions that must be considered in transitioning to a primarily digital research environment: technical, economic, policy and social issues. The purpose of this paper is to begin to explore a research agenda for transitioning from a model for libraries where resources are primarily print to one that is predominantly digital. Our research in this area is just beginning, so our purpose is to raise the issues rather than offer firm conclusions.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124584869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet physical books are containers for a wide variety of information types, and are accessed in a wide variety of ways, which offers the possibility of differing electronic manifestations. The evolutionary approach will continue to be reasonably successful in meeting current needs, but the real growth in the adoption of e-books will happen when the traditional book is deconstructed and reconstructed (textually, behaviorally and commercially) in order to create new paradigms for storing and delivering content in electronic forms.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126021000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most best-sellers have often inspired other related products, sometimes in different media. Some of these can be merged into suitable forms to provide consumers with a better view and understanding of the original masterpiece: other texts about the original book, images, audio recordings or even films. Several standards and technologies, such as hypermedia, speech and language processing, and widely accessible PDAs, are nowadays available to make these experiences effective. A prototype of a Multimedia Enriched Digital Book (MEDB) is presented for reading, listening and viewing as well as for a text querying scenario. Within the scope of already available technologies, these are tangible visions for the very next years.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131108326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently there is an effort underway by public libraries, universities, the Open Content Alliance, Google and others, to non-destructively scan these 32M unique books and make them available for on-line viewing and search. Twenty percent (6.4M) of the 32M titles are out of copyright and out of print. A publisher estimates that an average of 40 copies of each title can be sold per year if they could be made available for sale. This long tail opportunity represents a several billion dollar market with the right cost structure. To address this long-tail book market we need to take the cost out of several parts of the value chain: automatic book preparation to minimize publishing setup costs, print-on-demand to remove warehouse and waste costs, and web 2.0 techniques to minimize marketing costs. We have created this system with several partners based on HP technology, and available as an incubation business.","PeriodicalId":258166,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Research Advances in Large Digital Book Repositories","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131050385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
