A Bibliometric Analysis of the Field of Information Studies
We perform a domain analysis of two recent volumes, The Encyclopedia of Interdisciplinarity and Transdisciplinarity, and The Handbook of Interdisciplinary Teaching and Administration. These volumes provide a useful snapshot of a field that is global in scope and draws on scholars with backgrounds in numerous academic fields. We identify most-cited authors, co-citation patterns, and most common publication outlets and dates of citations. One remar…
Classifying Musical Medium of Performance
How best to classify musical medium of performance? We welcome the advice and expertise of the community of Notes readers to inform our deliberations. Specifically, when referring to the sources of musical sound, should we be describing the objects (e.g., aerophone), the properties (e.g., piccolo), or some combination of the two? The Institute for Knowledge Organization and Structure convened a research group to discuss "the phenomena of music fo…
More than Physique or Desire
This is a preliminary report of work by a Domain Analysis Clinic formed in 2021 to examine homosexual nomenclatures. Prior studies have suggested that self-naming and self-classification in the domain of male gayness and alternative sexualities emerge as a form of resistance against the hegemonic. So, the postulated research question is: what are the reasons, characteristics, and consequences of this type of knowledge organization using as an exa…
From Atomic Elements to Fantastical Machines
The concept—an idea, a notion—is accepted as the core entity in knowledge organization (KO). The founder of the science of KO, Ingetraut Dahlberg, defined a concept repeatedly over time. Concepts have been well-discussed in the literature of both KO and information and have even been described as elementary particles in a theory of knowledge interaction. But an interesting question is what did the concept mean to these original thinkers in the na…
Nursing Information Behavior (NIB) in the Pandemic
Health care assumed epic proportions in 2020 as the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic swept the globe, crossing all social, geographic, economic and political lines. A key component of care at every phase of the pandemic has been home care nursing. A virtual domain analysis clinic (DAC) was constructed around the focus of nursing information behavior (NIB). An important question for research was the extent to which the ontological base underlying NIB…
Knowledge organization
The organization knowledge concept is defined as the domain where scientific research interacts with its application to systems development. Disciplines that embraces, as information science; and its products, such as classification systems, are cited. Some recent trends and current activities are presented. The article concludes presenting briefly the ISKO society and its activities
Musical Works and Information Retrieval
Music bibliographers and librarians are accustomed to an essential dichotomy that presents itself in the ordering of musical documents for retrieval. The documents themselves (scores and recordings, mostly) must be represented in retrieval systems according to their physical characteristics (that is, according to formatted physical descriptions) for the purposes of general bibliographic control; but the musical works that are contained in and con…
The Nature of 'a Work'
Living legend Smiraglia has written the first book devoted exclusively to exploring the concept that is commonly referred to as a bibliographic "Work." In bringing together material from both inside and outside the discipline of information studies, he traces the continuing development of catalogs, search engines, and other kinds of information retrieval tools, the better to understand the maze of editions and revisions and translations that make…
Beyond the Score
Ever since libraries first began collecting materials than books (so-called other formats or nonbook materials), librarians have grappled with the descriptive issues these materials have raised.(1) Librarians have traditionally attempted to describe these items using existing standards while claiming that they actually must be treated differently. This discrepancy is manifested in the current cataloging rules,(2) which can blur the distinction be…
