O artigo analisa a presença e o nível de aplicabilidade do modelo de Biblioteca Integrada a três tendências chaves para a reconfiguração das estruturas bibliotecárias na universidade: os MOOC ou cursos massivos em linha, os sistemas de informação geográfica e as humanidades digitais. Apresenta a descrição e a delimitação conceitual, tendo sido realizada de maneira experimental uma análise de conteúdo tomando como amostra as páginas web de universidades das 50 primeiras posições no Academic Ranking of World Universities (Ranking de Shanghai, versão 2013). A nível de observação foi determinado se a biblioteca participa de maneira ativa nestas tendências, o tipo de suporte e conteúdo desenvolvidos. Conclui reafirmando como a Biblioteconomia integrada é uma forma de flexibilização adequada para a presença do bibliotecário em novas frentes de pesquisa.Palavras-chave: Biblioteca universitária.

What chance does a university stand to be among the best, if it does not have hundreds of years of experience? The top 10 universities in the latest Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities ranking (2011) were all founded before 1900, and two are more than eight centuries old. As is the case with good wines, academic excellence requires a wealth of expertise, careful care, and a long maturity period.

Discute os direitos autorais como uma competência necessária para que o bibliotecário de referência possa fornecer orientação nas questões relacionadas ao uso ético e legal da informação. Apresenta os assuntos “biblioteca universitária”, “serviço de referência” e “direitos autorais”, com ênfase nas competências atuais do bibliotecário de referência em bibliotecas universitárias. A partir do Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), identificou-se uma amostra de escritórios de direitos autorais que representa uma nova perspectiva de atuação para o bibliotecário de referência e analisou-se seus sites, os quais embasaram a identificação de assuntos atuais e emergentes que podem ser importantes para a implementação desses serviços no Brasil e outros lugares. Essas questões também são consideradas competências-chave relacionadas ao serviço que a biblioteca universitária e o bibliotecário de referência fornecem à comunidade em relação aos direitos autorais. Conclui que, com base na análise dos serviços e competências presentes nas bibliotecas estrangeiras, os currículos dos cursos de Biblioteconomia e Ciência da Informação, pelo menos no Brasil, precisam ser revisados ​​para abordar competências relacionadas aos direitos autorais e de forma correspondente ajustar a educação e o treinamento do bibliotecário de referência.

This article is concerned with the communicative study of the issue of assessing the reputation of universities. The article presents the concept of "reputation" and its characteristics such as a long-term period of creation, the multiple nature of reputation, the relationship with the values that the audience gives to the company etc. Reputation is seen as the result of communicative interaction with the audience, which allows to create trust and inspire confidence in stakeholders. The authors review the characteristics of the three leading world university rankings: Times Higher Education World University Rankings; Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings; The Academic Ranking of World Universities. And also, the article describes the criteria by which these rankings are built. It either observes the indicators that are taken into account in the compilation of reputational ratings for companies and brands. It turns out during the comparing of the criteria for assessing the ratings of universities and the ratings of companies and brands, that emotional components are completely dismissed from the ratings of universities. While compilers of the company’s reputation rankings RepTrak ™ Pulse and the brand’s reputation rankings Interbrand always include them. The article presents the data from a study of the reputation of RUDN University, which the authors conducted by methods of survey and interview in November 2019. They show that an emotional assessment of a university's reputation is more important for an internal audience than a rational one.

The degree of ability differentiation—shared understandings of ability differences—which occurs in classrooms, can be theoretically attributed to the uniformity of criteria comparing students and to the number of dimensions on which those criteria are applied. We identify a cluster of classroom characteristics, labeled “classroom resolution,” hypothesized to produce variation in the degree of ability differentiation: grouping practice, teacher evaluation practice, task differentiation, and student autonomy. Surveying upper-grade students and teachers from seven low resolution and eight high resolution classrooms, we find that consensus on an individual’s academic ranking is higher among classmates, between classmates and self, between teacher and classmates, and between teacher and self in high resolution classrooms. The results suggest that classrooms, varied by resolution, provide different interpretations of ability.
