The legal person governance structure of public libraries assigns the decision-makingpower, execution power and supervision power to different institutions, which is of great significancefor the effective implementation of the autonomy of library legal persons and the realization of librarygovernance. Based on the results of the Internet research of 365 public libraries, this paper starts fromthe perspective of supervisory boards/supervisors, and divides the corporate governance structure ofpublic libraries into three types: binary-supervisory-absent, binary-supervisory-embedded, and ternarysupervisoryboard-independent. It also analyzes the checks and balances of power between the supervisorycommittee/supervisors and the board of councils and management. The article proposes strategies foroptimizing the corporate governance structure of public libraries in terms of clarifying the duties ofsupervisors in the statutes, optimizing the way of identifying supervisors, and supporting supervisors tocarry out regular evaluation work, with a view to promoting the scientific and standardized developmentof the corporate governance structure of public libraries.

Intellectual property protection mechanism is the key to realizing the goal of scientific datasharing and utilization. Clarifying the intellectual property protection mechanism of scientific data sharingand utilization is of great significance to promoting the orderly development of scientific data sharing andutilization. Taking the intellectual property attribute of scientific data and its ownership as a breakthroughpoint, this paper analyzes how to use intellectual property sharing license agreements to regulate therights and obligations of data publishers and users on the premise of clarifying scientific data ownership,and to promote the full sharing of various scientific data and ensure data security. China should adoptdifferentiated sharing agreements for different types of scientific data, so as to better balance the interestsof data publishers and the public. At the same time, in order to truly realize the significance of datasharing, maximize the value of data, and promote the reuse of scientific data after sharing, China shouldlearn from the legislative experience of the United States and Europe and incorporate text and data mininginto the fair use of copyright.

During the Period of the Republic of China (1912 to 1949), school libraries emerged anddeveloped with the modernization of education and the prosperity of librarianship. Many scholars in theRepublic of China period noticed and discussed the importance of school libraries and the problems in thepractices. There were many voices at that time questioning the need for libraries in primary and secondaryschools. In response, scholars demonstrated the necessity of school libraries from three aspects: therelationship between education and libraries, the relationship between primary and secondary schools andlibraries, and the relationship between teachers and students and libraries. As for the problems of funding,building and facilities, organization, books, services and reading guidance, the scholars discussed and putforth realistic solutions. Based on their viewpoints, experience, and suggestions, this article concludes thatthe discussions have some enlightening viewpoints, and can provide enlightenments on development ofcontemporary school libraries and its construction.

RDA and BIBFRAME have set up relevant elements and properties for processing series todescribe series information and reveal series relationships. For the description of series information, RDAelements are more abundant and the description granularity is finer. RDA provides series description inthe manifestation, while BIBFRAME provides series description in the series work. For the revelationof the series relationship, both have set up two sets of work relationships and are corresponding, but thetheoretical significance is different. The series relationship of RDA belongs to the inspiration relationship,while the series relationship of BIBFRAME belongs to the part relationship. The current BIBFRAMEvocabulary and conversion tools have an issue of inconsistency for series processing, and it is expectedthat future BIBFRAME series processing methods may still undergo changes to better accommodateRDA.

This review aims to elucidate the current status of foreign research on cognitive biasesin users’ online information search, in order to provide researchers with a more comprehensiveunderstanding of this domain. Adhering to the principles of systematic review, a total of 104 scholarlyarticles sourced from eight academic databases were scrutinized, encompassing analyses acrossfour dimensions: publication trends, theoretical frameworks, research themes, and methodologies. Agradual increase has been observed in studies addressing cognitive biases in users’ online informationsearch in recent years, reflecting a growing scholarly interest in this field. The foundational theoriesunderpinning these investigations primarily originate from psychology and communication studies.Relevant research predominantly focuses on four sub-themes pertaining to cognitive biases: typology,causation, the influence of cognitive biases on information search, and corrective strategies. Additionally,our observations of research trends highlight the prevalence of experimental methodologies as the mostfrequently employed method in current research endeavors.

Many current digitization projects of ancient books focus primarily on the informationcontained within the books, while neglecting the simultaneous digitization of their physical features.Digitally presenting the binding structure and physical features of ancient books can better realize thedigital display and dissemination of the culture of ancient books within the context of the national strategy.By integrating digital technology with the cultural aspects of bookbinding, as well as the preservation andrestoration of ancient books, this paper designs a visualization model of the album structure of ancientbooks, and expounds the sorting, annotation and visualization modules in this model. It further provesthe necessity and feasibility of applying digital technology to the protection and restoration of ancientbooks, and focuses on exploring the digital display and dissemination of the binding characteristics andculture of ancient books. The digitization project of ancient books should not only be the digitization ofancient book’ contents, but also be the digitization and visualization of their physical information, such asappearance, materials and Craftmanship of ancient books.
