Conversão de registros bibliográficos do padrão AACR2r para NBR 6023/2002 usando XML: suporte documental livro

The difficulty in preparing references is perceived among students and teachers. The problem lies in understanding the various forms of application of different standards, widely used in information units and academic work. In Brazil, the recommendation for use of ISO 6023/2002, ABNT. It should be noted the difficulty in preparing references perceived in public non-specialist literature on standardization. The goal that was intended to achieve with this study was to develop methodology applicable to a computational tool that addresses the preparation of references to documents containing ISBN. As specific objectives were to: develop a tool to display references using the essential elements established by the NBR 6023/2002; study format conversion of bibliographic records in standard AACR2R to NBR6023/2002; maintain a conversion process from the indication of the ISBN number for the NBR 6023/2002 format, bibliographic records in MARC 21 Bibliographic AACR2R described in the pattern, using the XML markup language, make proposals for further action to address other formats of bibliographic records. The work was motivated by an interest in fostering the relationship between the automated information systems in libraries and user needs, and developing a computational tool that utilizes the essential elements established by the Brazilian standard preparation of references, such as author, title, edition, place, publisher and date of publication, from bibliographic records in standard AACR2R. The methodological procedure involved literature review and field research beyond the study of XML. It was necessary to establish a boundary to the documentary type book, considering the complexity of working, at first, with other support documents, and another, with books that contained the ISBN number, so that one could develop the process of conversion indication from this data in bibliographic records cataloged in MARC 21 Bibliographic format, exploring, well, the ease of original representation of bibliographic information. The research involved reading and bibliographic records of material involving the standards AACR2R, NBR 6023/2002, MARC 21 Bibliographic, ISBN, and XML. In field research, we proceeded to investigate whether looking for tools to ascertain the mechanisms and elements used. We identified several tools, including: a national (MORE) and two American (and OttoBib EasyBib) and went to the comparative analysis of the mechanisms identified in order to verify the information used as well as their patterns of results. It is expected, with this methodology, develop tool to meet the demand of students and teachers regarding the preparation of references, bibliography. In future, we intend to improve it in order to include other formats of bibliographic records

Indicadores de evaluación de citas y referencias en tesis de maestría en educación: una muestra peruana

This research work is aimed at determining the quality of citations and references of the Master’s thesis in Education of peruvian colleges. The documental analysis  technique was used and the “Observation Guide” proposed by Martín and Lafuente (2017) was employed as an instrument, which is composed of five quality indicators for the bibliographic review (exhaustiveness, critical use of the bibliography, quality, relevance and review of previous research works); and of 9 for bibliographic references (update, number of references, self-citation, language, typology, support, complete references, accuracy and fulfillment of a standard or style). In addition, 562 bibliographic references and 1209 citations extracted from 14 theses, digitalized and published in the National Digital Repository of Peru during 2017, were analyzed. The mechanisms for citations as well as the bibliographic references were evaluated. After the descriptive-statistical analysis, it could be identified that the level achieved for both variables was “Enough”.La presente investigación tuvo por objetivo determinar la calidad de citas y referencias de las tesis de Maestría en Educación de universidades peruanas. Se utilizó la técnica del análisis documental y como instrumento se recurrió a la “Guía de observación” propuesta por Martín y Lafuente (2017), compuesta por cinco indicadores de calidad para la revisión bibliográfica (exhaustividad, utilización crítica de la bibliografía, calidad, relevancia y revisión de investigaciones previas); y nueve para las referencias bibliográficas (actualización, cantidad de referencias, autocitación, idioma, tipología, soporte, referencias completas, exactitud y cumplimiento con una norma o estilo). El análisis se realizó a 562 referencias bibliográficas y 1209 citas extraídas de 14 tesis, digitalizadas y publicadas en el Repositorio Nacional Digital de Perú, durante el año 2017. Se evaluaron tanto los mecanismos de citado, como las referencias bibliográficas. Después del análisis estadístico descriptivo se pudo identificar que el nivel alcanzado para ambas variables fue “suficiente”

The NASA Astrophysics Data System: Data Holdings

Since its inception in 1993, the ADS Abstract Service has become an indispensable research tool for astronomers and astrophysicists worldwide. In those seven years, much effort has been directed toward improving both the quantity and the quality of references in the database. From the original database of approximately 160,000 astronomy abstracts, our dataset has grown almost tenfold to approximately 1.5 million references covering astronomy, astrophysics, planetary sciences, physics, optics, and engineering. We collect and standardize data from approximately 200 journals and present the resulting information in a uniform, coherent manner. With the cooperation of journal publishers worldwide, we have been able to place scans of full journal articles on-line back to the first volumes of many astronomical journals, and we are able to link to current version of articles, abstracts, and datasets for essentially all of the current astronomy literature. The trend toward electronic publishing in the field, the use of electronic submission of abstracts for journal articles and conference proceedings, and the increasingly prominent use of the World Wide Web to disseminate information have enabled the ADS to build a database unparalleled in other disciplines.

Referencing Sources of Molecular Spectroscopic Data in the Era of Data Science: Application to the HITRAN and AMBDAS Databases

The application described has been designed to create bibliographic entries in large databases with diverse sources automatically, which reduces both the frequency of mistakes and the workload for the administrators. This new system uniquely identifies each reference from its digital object identifier (DOI) and retrieves the corresponding bibliographic information from any of several online services, including the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data Systems (ADS) and CrossRef APIs. Once parsed into a relational database, the software is able to produce bibliographies in any of several formats, including HTML and BibTeX, for use on websites or printed articles. The application is provided free-of-charge for general use by any scientific database. The power of this application is demonstrated when used to populate reference data for the HITRAN and AMBDAS databases as test cases. HITRAN contains data that is provided by researchers and collaborators throughout the spectroscopic community. These contributors are accredited for their contributions through the bibliography produced alongside the data returned by an online search in HITRAN. Prior to the work presented here, HITRAN and AMBDAS created these bibliographies manually, which is a tedious, time-consuming and error-prone process. The complete code for the new referencing system can be found at \url{https://github.com/hitranonline/refs}.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures, already published online at https://doi.org/10.3390/atoms802001
