Abstract

The German National Library for Science and Technology (TIB) seizes the opportunity of an epochal change into the Digital Age, inter alia, by maintaining a prestigious research department covering the areas data science & digital libraries, visual analytics, scientific data management, knowledge infrastructures, learning & skill analytics, open science, and non-textual media. Without neglecting the original mission of collecting and curating literature for a widespread access to scientific information, TIB merges well-established processes with intelligent assistance tools. The Specialised Information Service for Mobility and Traffic Science (FID move) is one example of combining the mentioned research areas in order to build a user-centred subject-specific research infrastructure to support and shape tomorrow’s scientific work. We give a detailed introduction to the project’s action fields: web service platform, information supply with a focus on open access, strategy & structure for reusable research data, research community exchange & networking, communication strategies for the public & for scientists. Exemplary, we present the ongoing activities in building a comprehensive knowledge organisation system for e-mobility.

Highlights

  • Information infrastructure institutions, most prominently libraries, face challenges and opportunities of how information science in the sense of preserving and providing information extends from the print age to the digital age

  • This article addresses the strategy of how the German National Library of Science and Technology tackles these challenges to remain and further develop into a memory institution for the Digital Age

  • We find ourselves in the infancy of the digital age, or in the Digital Dark Ages, a phrase coined at IFLA 1997

Summary

A MEMORY INSTITUTION FOR THE DIGITAL AGE

ОПЫТ РАБОТЫ НЕМЕЦКОЙ НАЦИОНАЛЬНОЙ НАУЧНО-ТЕХНИЧЕСКОЙ БИБЛИОТЕКИ В ЦИФРОВУЮ ЭПОХУ. The Specialised Information Service for Mobility and Traffic Science (FID move) is one example of combining the mentioned research areas in order to build a user-centred subject-­specific research infrastructure to support and shape tomorrow’s scientific work. Немецкая национальная научно-­техническая библиотека использует возможности перехода в цифровую эпоху, имея в своей структуре исследовательский отдел, который решает задачи в области оцифровки документов и формирования электронных библиотек, визуальной аналитики, управления научными данными, инфраструктуры знаний, аналитики образования, открытой науки и нетекстовых средств массовой информации. Хранения документов и предоставления широкого доступа к научной информации основной миссией, TIB осуществляет обслуживание с применением информационных технологий. Создана специализированная информационная служба изучения веб-пространства и трафика (FID move), которая объединяет исследования в вышеозначенных областях для создания ориентированной на пользователя предметно-­специализи­ рованной инфраструктуры научного знания, поддержки и сопровождения научной работы будущего. В качестве примера авторы представляют результаты текущей работы по созданию комплексной системы организации знаний e-мобильности
