文档阵列的数字化转型改变了信息基础设施的性质,因为数字文档的创建、分发、发现和交付方式与印刷品作为主要信息媒体时代不同。向数字信息基础设施的过渡导致图书馆失去了作为文档作者到读者方式的重要中间人的作用,合理地将图书馆转移到信息活动的边缘,并贬低了几个世纪以来开发的大多数文档阵列组织方法和技术。作者证实了降低图书馆使命信息部分的理由以及转向流行的分析服务的必要性。图书馆作用的下降是由以下因素决定的: 印刷出版物总量的减少;它们的上下文价值较低;能够在形式上和语义上存储、分发、处理数字信息阵列,无需图书馆员的输入即可将信息传递给用户。因此,不再需要所有的手动处理操作。打印阵列在数量和上下文上都变得越来越少,而不断增加的动态数字流则由不断改进的软件进行处理。作者看到了扩大图书馆分析功能的解决方案,设想纳入与复杂分析过程相关的专业能力,即。 e.事实检索和验证;获取和处理统计和实验研究数据,准备分析调查、评论和报告。
Digital transformation of document arrays has changed the nature of information infrastructure, as the digital documents are created, distributed, discovered and delivered in principally other way than in the epoch of printed matters as the main information media. The transition to digital information infrastructure has resulted in the loss of role of libraries as an essential intermediate on the document author-to-reader way, reasonably displacing libraries to the periphery of information activities and depreciating the majority of methods and technologies of document array organization developed through the centuries. The author substantiates the rationale for degrading information component of library mission and the necessity to transit to prevalent analytical services. The decreasing role of libraries is determined by the following factors: reduction of overall printed publications; their lower contextual value; capabilities to store, distribute, process digital information array formally and semantically, information deliver to users without the input of librarian. Therefore, not all the manual processing operations have become demanded any more. The print arrays grow scanty quantitively and contextually, and the increasing and dynamical digital flows are processed by ever-improving software. The author sees the solution in expanding analytical function of libraries which envisages inclusion of professional competences related to complex analytical processes, i. e. fact search and verification; acquisition and processing of statistical and experimental research data, preparation of analytical surveys, reviews and reports.
