Digital Library Futures Impact Legal

项目摘要

This research will answer the following main question: what is the impact of e-legal deposit changes upon UK academic deposit libraries and their users? The project's principal contribution will be to provide a detailed account of the impact of e-legal deposit, applied to the specific case of academic deposit libraries. Legal deposit plays a significant role in ensuring the systematic preservation of the world's published written heritage. In the UK, it provides a regulatory framework for a trusted group of national and academic libraries to collect published textual materials in print form. The 2013 introduction of electronic legal deposit incorporated digital materials for the first time, taking steps to secure the UK's "Digital Universe." Despite this expansion, legal deposit is still conceived primarily as a way to preserve collections for the long term, with restrictions on how the materials can be used by contemporary researchers. However, published research into legal deposit often focuses on its regulatory and long-term preservation aspects. There is relatively little research into how e-legal deposit has affected the UK academic institutions tasked with enacting the regulations, or indeed their users. As a result, there is a need for user-focused research which explores how legal deposit collections are accessed and used, and to what extent these collections should support contemporary research in academic libraries.We will produce two case studies, in collaboration with two major libraries: The Bodleian Libraries, and the Cambridge University Library. We will focus on two specific groups which are directly affected by the outlined changes: academic libraries with regulatory responsibilities for legal deposit; and the academic and non-academic users of these libraries. While both groups have been the focus of discussion during the conception and implementation of e-legal deposit, this research will shed light on the wider social, cultural and institutional implications of the legislation. It will provide insights into how researchers in academia uses electronic legal deposit collections, and apply these to wider social and cultural issues including digital inclusion, information democratisation, and the role of libraries in addressing the digital divide in access to knowledge. In doing so, it will interrogate the benefits and challenges of legal deposit in the digital age, and will address the tension between a regulatory framework designed with long-term preservation in mind, and developments in academia and society which have made digital scholarship and digital inclusion vital for full participation in civic life.The project will engage with key figures involved in policymaking, implementation and collection development, as well as including the voices of contemporary users whose information behaviour incorporates these important collections. We will produce a series of journal articles and conference papers, provide a strong online presence for non-expert audiences, and engaged with users and creators of digital resources. The research will culminate in a white paper, to be presented a public symposium, providing a forum to build momentum for further research into the use of legal deposit collections. A central aim is to provide insights into how e-legal deposit in its current form interacts with emerging trends in digital scholarship and digital inclusion, and with existing library services. The UK is one of the nations leading the way in e-legal deposit, and this research has the potential to provide a vital and timely intervention for the international community as they face similar challenges. It will contribute not only to understanding and developing digital collections for academic deposit libraries, but also to international debates on the future of libraries in the digital age.

本研究将回答以下主要问题：电子法律存款的变化对英国学术存款图书馆及其用户的影响是什么？该项目的主要贡献将是提供一个详细的电子法律存款的影响，适用于学术存款图书馆的具体情况。法律的存款在确保系统地保存世界已出版的书面遗产方面发挥着重要作用。在英国，它为一个值得信赖的国家和学术图书馆团体提供了一个监管框架，以收集印刷形式的出版文本材料。2013年引入的电子法律的存款首次纳入了数字材料，采取措施保护英国的“数字宇宙”。“尽管这种扩张，法律的存款仍然被认为主要是一种长期保存收藏品的方式，对当代研究人员如何使用这些材料有限制。然而，已发表的对法律的存款的研究往往集中在其监管和长期保存方面。关于电子法律存款如何影响负责制定法规的英国学术机构或实际上影响其用户的研究相对较少。因此，有必要进行以用户为中心的研究，探讨如何访问和使用法律的存款馆藏，以及在何种程度上这些馆藏应支持当代学术图书馆的研究。我们将制作两个案例研究，与两个主要图书馆合作：博德利图书馆和剑桥大学图书馆。我们将重点关注两个特定的群体，这是直接受到概述的变化：学术图书馆的法律的存款的监管责任;和这些图书馆的学术和非学术用户。虽然这两个群体一直是讨论的重点，在概念和实施的电子法律存款，这项研究将揭示更广泛的社会，文化和制度的影响，立法。它将为学术界的研究人员如何使用电子法律的存款收藏提供见解，并将其应用于更广泛的社会和文化问题，包括数字包容，信息民主化，以及图书馆在解决数字鸿沟中的作用。在此过程中，它将探讨数字时代法律的存款的好处和挑战，并将解决长期保存的监管框架与学术界和社会的发展之间的紧张关系，这些发展使数字奖学金和数字包容对于充分参与公民生活至关重要。该项目将与参与决策，实施和收藏发展的关键人物进行接触，以及包括当代用户的声音，其信息行为包含这些重要的集合。我们将制作一系列期刊文章和会议论文，为非专家观众提供强大的在线展示，并与数字资源的用户和创作者进行互动。这项研究将最终形成一份白色文件，提交给一个公共研讨会，为进一步研究法律的存款收藏的使用提供一个论坛。一个中心目标是深入了解电子法律存款在其目前的形式如何与数字学术和数字包容的新兴趋势，并与现有的图书馆服务。英国是在电子法律存款方面处于领先地位的国家之一，这项研究有可能为面临类似挑战的国际社会提供重要和及时的干预。它不仅有助于学术存款图书馆了解和发展数字馆藏，而且有助于关于数字时代图书馆未来的国际辩论。
