Libraries in the Digital Age 2008: In Search of Knowledge

摘要

'The web is introducing implica-tions more revolutionary than those produced by the invention of the printing press ... which did not structurally alter the models for expressing ideas ... nor significantly modify the rela-tionship between authors and readers," according to Paolo Galluzzi of the Istituto e Museo Nazionale di Storia della Scienza in Florence, Italy. His keynote speech, titled Galileo's Blog: The Digital Library as a Repository of Knowledge kicked off the ninth Libraries in the Digital Age (LIDA) in Dubrovnik and Mljet, Croatia, from June 2 to 6. "Significantly," said Galluzzi, "we witness today a transition from taxonomy [centralized hierarchical order] to folksonomy [orientations of users who interact with the materials consulted]."
