The modern image library, with its large collections in a multiplicity of formats, requires sophisticated systems of classification, indexing and information retrieval. Alongside the traditional art historical approach to the reproductions it contains, iconographic indexes are being developed which treat art as a language and analyse signs, symbols and meanings. Given the increase in iconographic and iconological research there is a need for the co-ordination and standardisation of indexing techniques at an international level.

Evidencia a ausência de interdisciplinaridade entre a Biblioteconomia e Tecnologia da Informação (TI), no que tange tratamento de acervos digitais e híbridos, bem como a necessidade da participação do bibliotecário em projetos de softwares livres para bibliotecas. Aponta as mazelas relacionadas à aquisição de softwares proprietários pelas bibliotecas. Defende a redefinição de metodologias acerca das técnicas de indexação e a necessidade da ruptura contemplativa na postura do bibliotecário; o que agilizaria e modificaria processos, contribuindo na tomada de decisão em busca do tratamento e da qualidade na disseminação e recuperação da informação. Palavras-chave: Biblioteconomia; Tecnologia da Informação; Gerenciamento da Informação; Softwares para bibliotecas; Bibliotecários - Postura Abstract It evidences the interdisciplinary lack between the Librarianship and Information Technology regarding, in what it plays treatment of digital and hybrid collections, as well as the need of the librarian's participation in projects of free softwares for libraries – it points out on the sore spots related to the softwares proprietors' acquisition for the libraries. It defends the redefinition of methodologies concerning the indexing techniques and the need of the thoughtful rupture in the librarian's posture; what would activate and modify processes, contributing to the decision making in search of the treatment and quality in the dissemination information retrieval.

In this study, visual representations are created in order to analyze different aspects of scientific collaboration at the international level. The main objective is to identify the international facet of research by following the flow of knowledge as expressed by the number of scientific publications, and then establishes the main geographical axes of output, showing the interrelationships of the domain, the intensity of these relations, and how the different types of collaboration are reflected in terms of visibility. Thus, the methodology has a twofold application, allowing us to detect significant differences that help characterize patterns of behaviour of a geographical system of output, along with the generation of representations that serve as interfaces for domain analysis and information retrieval.

The present paper discusses two funerary monuments from Alba county (Romania) depicting riders. These had been published before, but only summarily, without taking note of the details of military equipment illustrated on them. This is surprising because depictions of soldiers in full battle equipment are very rare in Dacia, not to mention that both monuments were dated to the 3rd century, a period in which such representations are scarce throughout the Empire. Therefore, the traditional art-historical approach to the study of Roman stone monuments will be by-passed and, instead of focusing on the type of monument, elements of style, workshops etc., the study will attempt to discuss at length the riders’ attire and the implications for the study of Roman military equipment.

This study examined the revitalization of the traditional art of Ngesti Pandowo as a product of the creative industry that responds to the demands of the era of globalization as an Indonesian cultural strategy model for reaching at an international level. Literature and field researches were conducted, and a comprehensive overview of the historical journey of Ngesti Pandowo was performed. The results revealed that Ngesti Pandowo emerged within the rural society but disappeared in the environment of the coastal society. Ngesti Pandowo, rooted in the agrarian society, became an entertainer and an integral part of the maritime society; however, they have disappeared within this society. Therefore, a strategy to promote the revitalization of Ngesti Pandowo in a multimedia form is required. The traditional revitalization of Ngesti Pandowo is not limited to inventory and identification but includes reconstruction, renovation, and refunctionalization, with dedicated production design, production packing, and marketing.

Pilar Wyman reports on the work of the US National Information Standards Organization (NISO) Criteria for Indexes project, which aims to revise and extend the NISO TR02-1997 Guidelines for indexes and related information retrieval devices. The guidelines have not been reviewed since 1984 and will thus be updated to address modern indexing techniques.

<span>Indexing is one of the important tasks of Information Retrieval<span> that can be applied to any form of data, generated from the<span> web, databases, etc. As the size of corpora increases, indexing<span> becomes too time consuming and labor intensive, therefore,<span> the introduction of computer aided indexer. A review of indexing<span> techniques, both human and automatic indexing has been done<span> in this paper. This paper gives an outline of the use of automatic<span> indexing by discussing various hashing techniques including<span> fuzzy finger printing and locality-sensitive hashing. Two different<span> processes of matching that are used in automatic subject<span> indexing are also reviewed. Accepting the need of automatic<span> indexing in a possible replacement to manual indexing, studies<span> in the development of automatic indexing tools must continue<br /><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
