ODLIS – Online Dictionary of Library and Information Science

Description

The network ODLIS is based on the ODLIS: Online Dictionary of Library and Information Science. version December 2000.

ODLIS is designed to be a hypertext reference resource for library and information science professionals, university students and faculty, and users of all types of libraries. The primary criterion for including a new term is whether a librarian or other information professional might reasonably be expected to encounter it at some point in his (or her) career, or be required to know its meaning in the course of executing his or her responsibilities as a librarian. The vocabulary of publishing, printing, book history, literature, and computer science has been included when, in the author's judgment, a definition might prove helpful, not only to library and information professionals, but also to laypersons.

An arc (X,Y) from term X to term Y exists in the network iff in the ODLIS dictionary the term Y is used to describe the meaning of term X.

ODLIS is the work of Joan M. Reitz, Assistant Professor/Instruction Librarian at the Ruth A. Haas Library, Western Connecticut State University (WCSU) in Danbury, CT. Ms. Reitz holds an M.L.I.S. degree (1991) from the University of Washington in Seattle and an M.A. degree (1998) in European History from Western Connecticut State University. Her primary research interests are the history of the book and history of political and social revolutions.
