Starting from the “open access” at the beginning of this century to the current “open data” and “open science”, the “open movement” featuring knowledge sharing has continued to develop in depth and with ever-increasing popularity. Its significance lies not only in the openness and sharing of knowledge, but more importantly, it will change the paradigm of scientific research and the ecology of knowledge exchange, upgrade the capability of technological innovation, and promote economic and social development. This paper, by way of combing and analyzing the global knowledge openness movement in the past two decades, discusses the significance of research data management in promoting knowledge openness and sharing, and puts forward four suggestions: first, to increase publicity and enhance awareness of open sharing; second, to formulate relevant policies and promote open scientific development; third, to consolidate various resources and build digital infrastructure; and fourth, to cultivate specialized personnel so as to enhance data management.

Against the backdrop of digital globalization, the cost and difficulty of public access to literature resources are decreasing, and the dependence on libraries is also weakening. It is imperative for public libraries to transform and upgrade traditional services with new technologies. The Creative · New Space of Shanghai Library came into being at such a time, and quickly became a model of innovation service of the public libraries. Based on the interview with librarians of Creative·New Space, this paper gives a panorama of the origin, starting and developing stages of Creative·New Space, and reveals the thinking and solutions in the process of space’s development. We hope this article can provide good reference for the transformation and upgrading of public library services.

Data literacy has become one of the essential competencies of educators, and is also a critical element to reflect the use of research data. The paper tries to define the concept and describe the basic features of data literacy from the angles of big data, decision making and educators. It generalizes the application on the part of foreign educators in decision making into knowledge point research of data use, education curriculum of data use, and training project of data use. It then addresses the insufficiency of present study by proposing more feedbacks and evaluation, diversified data sources, and attentions to ethical issues.

The article statistically analyzed the current status of information literacy education in the college and university libraries in Shanghai, including offered courses, teaching content, teaching models and evaluation, on the basis of which, the existing problems in teaching were identified and some countermeasures put forward. Data available for this study came from the online questionnaire surveys conducted by the “Information Literacy Education Status” project team of Chinese Ministry of Education, as well as from interviews and investigations of documents and web pages. Since the late 1980s when the course of “information literacy education” was first set up in the colleges and universities in Shanghai, great progress has been made. Nevertheless, some problems still exist, which include: (1) course development has been ignored; (2) teaching content for different levels of students (undergraduates and graduate students) is basically similar; (3) the course itself failed to be well integrated into different subjects or majors; and (4) teaching models are predominantly traditional and innovative teaching methods is missing. Several countermeasures and recommendations were presented accordingly.

The self-built database of open access full-text journals will play an important role for libraries to better serve users, to reduce the costs of digital library resources, and to train library professional and technical team. This paper studies the practice from many aspects, including the connotation and preconditions, the advantages of resources, sources and evaluation, the integration of web sources and retrieval methods, network hard disk sources and retrieval methods, QQ group sources and retrieval methods, and single journal website source and retrieval methods.

This paper analyzes the current library website content, layout, citation link tools, A-Z database, A-Z journals list and other issues, and puts forth suggestions and improvement strategies. It is hoped to provide reference for library website improvements.

Against the backdrop of and upon requirements to promote cultural system reform, corporate governance structure was experimented in Pudong Library in 2014. External trustees constituted the majority, and the board was defined as a decision-making body. Professional commissions and the secretariat were set up. The “negative list” was made, and the internal and external supervision mechanism established simultaneously. The information disclosure system was perfected, whereas the cooperation and communication mechanism enriched. A diverse, institutionalized supervision and feedback system was formed, which helps separate management from governance, integrate all kinds of social resources, realize multilateral governance, trigger the vitality of library, and play an exemplary role for other libraries. The construction of service system, expansion of the board’s privilege, perfection of the decision support system and consolidation of the channels for public participation should be the key points to be implemented so as to perfect the corporate governance structure in Pudong Library.

This paper summarizes the PPP model applied to the field of public library service, studies the social forces participating in the construction and management of intelligent library of Foshan united library, and explores new path of intelligent library’s multiple construction and development with reference of PPP mode.

Currently, there is an enormous sea of big data in engineering technology. It is of great importance to integrate the existing digital resources and to assist the experts and scholars to find the current hot spots of research in various fields with knowledge discovery technology. This paper proposes a bayesian-statistical-inference-based keyword association algorithm by measuring the direct relationship and latent semantic relationship between keywords. The proposed method is applied for solving the problemsof user behavior information shortage and co-occurrence sparsity.

As vendor approval plans and patron-driven acquisitions become increasingly popular, traditional role of “bibliographer” diminishes, and libraries are moving towards a model where liaison work focuses more on interaction and engagement. The Rutgers University Libraries are “turning outward”- a process to identify the needs and aspirations of our community (users and staff)-using a model developed by the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation. So far, the Rutgers University Libraries have hosted community conversations with three key groups: undergraduate student community, graduate student community, and global community. After the conversations, the librarians took transcripts from all of the conversations and themed them. Then we used the themes to create a brief summary of what we heard. The outcomes of these efforts have helped us redefine the roles of our librarians, craft new job descriptions, and take significant steps towards a new organizational structure for public services. This paper tell about the process and our resulting actions and outcomes, as well as some future plans.

It is necessary for university libraries to provide copyright information service so as to disseminate copyright knowledge and reinforce the copyright awareness of the faculty and students. Through literature review and website investigation, this paper analyzes the content of the copyright information service in the library of Columbia University. It also puts forward suggestions for strengthening copyright education in China’s universities.

In view of challenges facing library, in the era of cloud service and big data, to master data, the paper constructs a discipline location quotient model by means of citation analysis of ESI (Essential Science Indicators) and InCites databases. It selects 12 colleges and universities in Shanghai as an example, and calculates their discipline location quotient of 22 disciplines in ESI against the national scope. It then analyses the discipline structure and discipline cluster identification of Shanghai Universities by studying their relations with the top 1% ESI of the world, to provide a theoretical basis and data support of discipline service, discipline development and discipline adjustment.

The encyclopedia, as a special writing style, has had an important influence on history. The Ming dynasty is an important period of encyclopedia compilation, how much total compilation of encyclopedia, how encyclopedia’ preserving and missing, it is necessary to carefully hackle. Take Chinese Ancient Books Catalogue that description of the most of encyclopedia of the Ming dynasty for example, there are encyclopedia for 439. But according to the survey shows, in fact, the Ming dynasty has compiled encyclopedia for 665, 46 of them have been lost, another 180 are still exists but the Chinese Ancient Books Catalogue not description.

The Qinhu Qin Book found in Japanese National Diet Library is a second edition in Jiajing (1564) of the Ming dynasty, and is the only one we can see now. The structure and the scores and also fingerings Qinhu Qin Book recorded are similar to another Qin book in the Ming dynasty, Wugang Qin Book, which suggests the author of Qinhu Qin Book, Huicai may belong to Zhejiang Qin school. The discovery of Qinhu Qin Book throws light to the research on Zhejiang Qin school, as it recorded new information about Qin players and Qin scores.

The four-volume of Song Yin Anthology Qing transcript which is collected in Shanghai Library is to remedy the regret that the fourteenth volume is lost. There is no question that the fourteenth volume is a pseudograph, which has copied 28 poems from Song Shi Chao including Yang Wanli, Xu Yueqing, Fang Yue, Lin Jingxi, Wen Tianxiang and Zheng Zhen. Therefore the very volume which is embodied in Quan Song Poem should be deleted. At the same time, this book should be catalogued Qing Dynasty codex instead of the Ming Dynasty by Shanghai Library.
