Attention ESIS Students - This is an excellent conference and would be an extremely valuable learning experience for anyone who attends. Note that with volunteering you can reduce your registration cost. There is a career centre and an excellent exhibits area where you can learn a lot quickly about the library and information world. If it wasn't so far, I would suggest a full-day field trip ;-) Bilingual volunteers are welcome! If you have any questions regarding this conference and association, don't hesitate to contact me.

Study: "Searching with Tags: Do Tags Help Users Find Things?"
Study by Margaret E.I. Kipp, and D. Grant Campbell,
in Knowledge Organization, 2010, vol. 37, n. 4. (In Press)
Summary:
This study examines the question of whether tags can be useful in the process of information retrieval. Participants searched a social bookmarking tool specialising in academic articles (CiteULike) and an online journal database (Pubmed). Participant actions were captured using screen capture software and they were asked to describe their search process. Users did make use of tags in their search process, as a guide to searching and as hyperlinks to potentially useful articles. However, users also made use of controlled vocabularies in the journal database to locate useful search terms and of links to related articles supplied by the database.
Full-text PDF
Some of you may remember Dr. Margaret Kipp was a guest speaker in Heather Moulaison's Subject Analysis class last year. Dr. Kipp talked to us about folksonomies and her research using CiteULike.
I especially liked the direct quotes from participants in this study.

Consultation : cotisation pour une Maison des diplômé.e.s/Grad House Levy Consultation
Lieu: Auditorium des anciens (Centre Jock-Turcot, 85 Université)
Début: 10 nov 2010 (18:00)
Vous êtes cordialement invité.e.s...
La GSAÉD planifie depuis des années un projet d’une « Maison des diplômé.e.s », pour palier au besoin criant d’espace étudiant. Ce bâtiment de plusieurs millions de dollars serait une espace dont vous, les étudiant.e.s diplômé.e.s, serez propriétaires et utilisateurs, mais au prix de nouveaux frais accessoires.
Une rencontre spéciale du Conseil de la GSAÉD aura lieu pour discuter du projet: des enjeux, des options, des plans d'architecte, et des ententes de gouvernance et de financement avec l'Université.
Nous cherchons à vous informer pour que vous formiez votre opinion et que vos opinions aident à former nos actions.

Venue: Alumni Auditorium (Jock Turcot University Centre, 85 University)
Starting: Wednesday, November 10, 2010 (6:00 pm)
You are cordially invited...
The GSAÉD has been planning a “Grad House” for many years now, to deal with the dire need for student space. This multi-million dollar building would be a space that you, the graduate students, which you would own and use, but at the price of new accessory fees.
A special meeting of the GSAÉD Council will be held to discuss the project: the challenges, the opportunities, the architectural plans, and the governance and finance agreements with the University.
We hope to inform your opinion and have your opinion inform our actions.

UVic digitally preserves 30 years of feminist chronicles
Posted at the request of Lynne Bowker, who says "FYI some good press for archives and their value in teaching and research in today’s issue of the Times-Colonist, in a piece about the 'Victoria Women’s Movement Archives' held at UVic Archives."
Supporters of the Victoria Women's Movement Archives at the University of Victoria are raising money to digitize the collection:

Supporters of the Victoria Women's Movement Archives at the University of Victoria are raising money to digitize the collection:
The feminist archives are now celebrating 15 years as one of the only such collections in Canada. The downside: Its logo of a filing cabinet suits the current 30-box collection of paper documents. Which means that researchers or interested parties have to show up in person to use the information or contact an archivist and arrange for copies of what's inside.
Supporters are seeking donations from the public to help put the collection into digital form.

Digital copyright legislation opposed
Win for consumers!
The federal government's proposal to make consumers liable for legal damages of up to $5,000 if they break digital locks to copy movies, video games or electronic books for their own personal use appears dead on arrival -with all three opposition parties speaking out yesterday against this key provision of the Conservative government's copyright bill.

(via CASLIS Facebook group) Événement : Ose-t-on parler d’un «bibliothétiquetage»? Vers une participation active des utilisateurs...
Le vendredi 19 novembre 2010, de midi à 13 h
Bibliothéque publique d'Ottawa, Auditorium (120, rue Metcalfe)
Depuis des années, les bibliothécaires constatent l’utilité de permettre aux utilisateurs une participation à l’organisation de l’information proposée en ligne ; en 2007 déjà, le rapport sur les principes de pré-coordination dans les vedettes-matières de la Bibliothèquedu Congrès (LCSH) signalait à plusieurs reprises l’intérêt de l’application des étiquettes d’utilisateurs aux documents dans l’OPAC. Dans une optique de collaboration avec nos utilisateurs, il nous sera utile de considérer leurs attentes par rapport à l’organisation de l’information et à sa manipulation (capacité d’étiqueter, de commenter, de partager et/ou de sauvegarder) sur les sites Web des bibliothèques dans la nouvelle décennie.
Cette communication commencera par un survol de l’état actuel des systèmes d’étiquetage disponibles en ligne et auxquels nos utilisateurs auront eu affaire en tant qu’internautes. Dans un deuxième temps, cette communication recensera les systèmes d’étiquetage disponibles dans les portails de bibliothèques au Canada, aux États-Unis et en Europe. Que permettons-nous aux utilisateurs comparativement aux sites Web au sens plus large, et devrons-nous essayer d’aller encore plus loin en incitant nos utilisateurs à une participation active ?
Professeure Heather Moulaison est professeure adjointe à l'École des sciences de l'information. Elle enseigne des cours dans le domaine de l'organisation de l'information. Ses principaux champs d'intérêt comprennent les réseaux sociaux et les étiquettes, la bibliothéconomie comparée et les bibliothèques numériques. Elle publie et présente des communications sur ses sujets d'intérêt à des colloques locaux, nationaux et internationaux.
