Educational bibliographic relationships are the relationships between an educational work, such as a textbook, and its related works. The main interest of this study was to understand the nature of the supplementary work-to-work bibliographic relationships among educational works and the constitution of educational bibliographic families in the Canadian context using AMICUS (the Canadian national catalog). A thorough understanding of educational bibliographic relationships is required for understanding the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) supplementary relationships.</p></div><div><h3>Design/methodology/approach</h3><p>We studied the extent and size of educational bibliographic relationships in the bibliographic universe found in the AMICUS catalog. This is an empirical investigation into the nature and extent of educational work-to-work bibliographic relationships by examining title of works, notes and added entries in bibliographic records. The study was carried out between September 1st 2010 and December 22nd 2010 and examines educational bibliographic relationships between Canadian 2009 publications in each class of the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC). In other words, this study poses two main questions: What is the structure of educational supplementary bibliographic relationships in Canadian publications? Do significant differences exist across the ten DDC classes?</p></div><div><h3>Findings</h3><p>Results show that 595 works of the 2009 bibliographic records in the AMICUS catalog contain an educational supplementary bibliographic relationship. Of the Canadian publications with an educational supplementary work-to-work bibliographic relationship that were studied, the rates of educational bibliographic relationships were relatively high in the fields of Science (27%), Technology (22%), Social Sciences (20%), and Language (19%). The results of this study suggest a set of guidelines for the establishment and maintenance of educational bibliographic relationships.</p></div><div><h3>Originality/value</h3><p>This is the first research to examine the educational bibliographic relationships, as supplementary relationships.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":43196,"journal":{"name":"LIBRARY COLLECTIONS ACQUISITIONS & TECHNICAL SERVICES","volume":"37 1","pages":"Pages 66-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.lcats.2013.09.006","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136992048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature on international students shows that they often find library services intimidating. However, there is very little literature on the relationship between international students and their use of library collections. Interviews were conducted with international students new to the university, seeking to determine if providing familiar films eases students' transition and acculturation. Although circulation data show that the foreign films are popular, interviews with international students indicated preference for American films to gain cultural confidence.","PeriodicalId":43196,"journal":{"name":"LIBRARY COLLECTIONS ACQUISITIONS & TECHNICAL SERVICES","volume":"9 1","pages":"121 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80223447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By coordinating, guiding, and organizing academic libraries, CALIS aims to minimize spending while obtaining foreign resources with the best prices and services.

Since 2005, there has been a customer satisfaction survey to evaluate this cooperative purchase service and the databases subscribed to by the CALIS consortium during the CALIS annual “imported database training week”. 494 staff members from 246 libraries took part in the fourth such survey to evaluate 87 databases cooperatively purchased in 2009.

Such survey activities provide a win–win situation, not only for CALIS and its member libraries, but also for database vendors. Survey results and usage reports help libraries analyze the quality of resources and provide evidence for libraries to choose among different purchasing options. Also, more promotional work has been done to enhance understanding, solve libraries' problems, and improve service quality. Finally, survey results and database evaluation rankings have been used to urge database vendors and publishers to make improvements relevant to libraries' development strategies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":43196,"journal":{"name":"LIBRARY COLLECTIONS ACQUISITIONS & TECHNICAL SERVICES","volume":"36 3","pages":"Pages 97-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.lcats.2012.05.003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76277796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
