Extractions: Libraries will be changed by technological and social developments that are fueled by information technology, bioinformatics, and networked information. Libraries in highly focused settings such as the health sciences are at a pivotal point in their development as the synthesis of historically diverse and independent information sources transforms health care institutions. Boundaries are breaking down between published literature and research data, between research databases and clinical patient data, and between consumer health information and professional literature. This paper focuses on the dynamics that are occurring with networked information sources and the roles that libraries will need to play in the world of medical informatics in the early twenty-first century.

Extractions: Interface: Paul Evan Peters In Interface , we interview LIS professionals with interesting views on the networking age. As Director of the US Coalition for Networked Information , the views of Paul Evan Peters are of interest to library and information people around the world. Alison Kilgour caught up with him at a recent UK conference. aul Evan Peters is of a philosophical turn of mind. Even at breakfast, in his hotel in Hatfield where he was based for the LibTech Conference , he drops easily into a fluent analysis of the goals of the Coalition for Networked Information, the organisation which he founded five years ago. The CNI was formed to promote the creation of networked information resources which will advance scholarship and intellectual productivity. It draws upon a task force consisting of universities, publishers, hardware and software companies and library organisations. Peters' primary vision of the CNI is as a facilitator. Communication is the key. At present, there is still a gulf between those who use networked services and those who provide them. The organisation aims to foster an environment which eases communication betweenthe two groups. To that end, it hosts meetings and conferences, encourages projects between providers and users (the TULIP electronic journal project is the best known illustration) and produces its own stimulus to the crucial debate on the information society. This latter is achieved by commissioning issue papers whose main aim is to challenge and provoke. "Despite the word 'Coalition' in our title, we don't advocate public policy positions" he explains. "The kind of politics we are experts in are market place politics or organisational change politics."

Networked Information Retrieval (NIR) Charter Group will be a cooperative effort of three major players in the field of NIR IETF,RARE, and the Coalition for Networked Information specifically tasked to http://www.ietf.cnri.reston.va.us/proceedings/94mar/charters/nir-charter.html
Extractions: NOTE: This charter is accurate as of the 29th IETF Meeting in Seattle. It may now be out-of-date. (Consider this a "snapshot" of the working group from that meeting.) Up-to-date charters for all active working groups can be found elsewhere in this Web server. As the network has grown, along with it there has been an increase in the number of software tools and applications to navigate the network and make use of the many, varied resources which are part of the network. Within the past year and a half we have seen a wide spread adoption of tools such as the Archie servers, the Wide Area Information Servers (WAIS), the Internet Gopher, and the World Wide Web (WWW). In addition to the acceptance of these tools, there are also diverse efforts to enhance and customize these tools to meet the needs of particular network communities. There are many organizations and associations that have recently begun to focus on the proliferating resources and tools for networked information retrieval (NIR). The Networked Information Retrieval Working Group will be a cooperative effort of three major players in the field of NIR: IETF, RARE, and the Coalition for Networked Information specifically tasked to collect and disseminate information about the tools and to discuss and encourage cooperative development of current and future tools. The NIR Working Group intends to increase the useful base of information about NIR tools, their developers, interested organizations, and other activities that relate to the production, dissemination, and support of NIR tools, to produce documentation that will enable user services organizations to provide better support for NIR tools, to develop materials that will assist the support and training of end users and to evolve in the future as necessary to meet and anticipate changes in the field (i.e., NIR tools, protocols, network topology, etc.).

Extractions: U5: Networked Information Discovery and Retrieval - Panel The panelists are collaborating on a Coalition for Networked Information (CNI) initiative to prepare a white paper that examines problems associated with identifying, selecting, and retrieving information in widely distributed heterogenerous environments. This session will include a report on research that explores architectural issues related to improving nidr, particularly as they pertain to metadata used in conjunction with nidr tools. The panelists will explore the role of metadata in improving nidr and discuss the elements beyond metadata that are needed to achieve a more robust nidr. They also will report on the outcome of an effort to cross-map metadata across many domains into a generic element set and the implications of this effort for the development of URC's and other core element sets such as the one that resulted from the OCLC/NCSA Metadata Conference.
