NRL Research Library Mission & Vision The Ruth H. Hooker Research Library exists to enhance & support NRL scientists in accomplishing their research objectives across a range of ongoing Navy and Do. D programs through a mix of information services. “Your Partner in Research”
Information Resources & Services Providing access to all published information… • Journals (including digital transition) • Books & Conference Proceedings • Reference Tools • Reference Services
Journal Collection Journals: • Print journals (1800 -present, 1, 682 titles) • Online journals (1683 -present, 2, 574 titles) • TORPEDO Ultra (1895 -present, 2, 200 titles) • Directly deal with 180 individual journal publishers with 50+ content licenses per year
Journal Collection Evolution
Potential Future of Journal Subscriptions Mix of Open Access and For Fee Journals l More targeted subscriptions with fees/access based upon specific subgroups within organization l Larger consortial agreements to provide larger potential pool of titles with broader cost distribution l Archival subscription for core, shared access for important, and Document Delivery for rest l
Books & Conference Proceedings • Books/Proceedings – 46, 000 print titles with 8, 700+ e. Books • Primary conference proceedings publishers are SPIE, MRS, AIP, and IEEE • RFIDs on entire book/reference collection
Reference Tools • Print reference – 3, 000 titles (Who’s Who, encyclopedia, handbooks, citation indexes, Chemical Abstracts, etc. ) • Online reference/databases – 3, 000 titles (INSPEC, Web of Science, Sci. Finder, Scopus, etc. )
Naval Research Results Capturing the NRL Research portfolio… • Research Reports • NRL Published Research Results • Reports Reference Services
Research Reports l Print (unclassified and classified) – 600, 000 reports l Digitized (SIPRnet) – 200, 000 reports l Microfilm – 1. 5 M reports l Focusing on digitizing all 80 k NRL reports (currently have 30 k digitized)
Capturing corporate knowledge l Manage a new form of information, the quasipublished corporate document l Volume necessitates a mix of automated and manual processes l Merge the unpublished and published information silos l Embed rights language into documents
NRL Online Bibliography
NIH Proposal l Require all NIH grant recipients to deposit final draft of article into PUBMED Central l PUBMED will make article available to public 6 months after publication unless publisher allows sooner l Zerhouni’s motivation: Research Portfolio Management
Open Access l Goal: To provide free access to all scholarly literature to enhance research l Journal Focus: Changing journals to free public access through author fees or ‘brief’ embargo windows l Institution Focus: Capturing all prepublished literature created by an institution or on behalf of a funding body
Digital Library Development Creating the NRL Digital Library… • Digital Content Management • Web Services Development • Infrastructure
TORPEDO Ultra Digital Archive l l l 2, 100+ journals from 13 publishers 6, 000 tech reports 4. 0 M+ articles locally loaded Full content search across journals & reports Integrated citation linking Convera Retrieval. Ware Concept Searching
Sources of TORPEDO Ultra Content l Agency publications – NRL tech reports and press releases l In-house digitizing projects – Cooperative efforts with AIP, APS, OSA l Data licensed from publishers – Journals (AIP, APS, Elsevier, IEEE/IEE, Io. P, Kluwer) – Conference proceedings – Standards
Publishers in TORPEDO Ultra Loaded or in process • Academic Press • Cell Press • Acoustical Society of America • Elsevier • IEEE/IEE American Institute of Physics • Kluwer • • American Physical Society • Materials Research Society • American Meteorological • Optical Society of America Society • Wiley
Two possible paths for Integrated Library Systems l Realizing previous goal of completeness: – Source of/participation in Single Search – Easier integration/organization of digital content – Intelligent linking of content – Union and Virtual Catalogs l Continued marginalization: – Legacy repository for print-based materials – Print-based serials check in – Circulation module for print-based materials
NRL Master Journal Database l Core journal info: – Title(s) and subject(s) – Formats and holdings – Full content links l Current and planned uses: – Source/engine of e. Journal pages on Web – Administration of journal subscriptions – Navy-wide union catalog of journals – Foundation for linking services
Navy Journal Information Management System (N-JIMS) l Web-based, dynamic union catalog of journal information l Expands service to be comprehensive l Simplify inter-organizational data sharing l Provides linking services
Naval Knowledge Network Plans l Expansion of existing NRL products/services – Web site with Navy Library Directory – N-JIMS and TORPEDO Ultra – Table of Contents Alerting Services l Integration of various applications – Single search, intelligent linking, etc. – Web-based Subject Bibliography – N/MCI compliant Library Catalog
Wireless Standard 802. 11 a Speed 54 Mbps 802. 11 b “Wi-Fi” 11 Mbps 802. 11 g 802. 15 “Bluetooth” & PAN 54 Mbps Up to 20 Mbsp 802. 16 “Wi-Max” 54 Mbps+ Radio Frequency ID (RFID) MESH Networks
NRL RFID Implementation l l l Deployed 50, 000+ digital tags to book and reference collection Finished initial tagging in ~6 months Allows shelf reading in a couple days Checks for weeding candidates, mis-shelved, holds, and ‘missing’ material with one pass Equipment needed: – Self-checkout upgrade – Cataloging station – Handheld reader with ‘triage’ cart
NRL Wireless LAN Deployment l NRL Networking deployed ‘hot spots’ in conference center, cafeteria, and library l Will run on external network allowing access to Internet, but not to internal LAN l Library purchasing wireless-enabled laptops l Equipment deployed but not yet activated
