The paper reports on a study of the ways in which Canadian digital library collections make use of knowledge organization systems to support users’ information search behaviour. The study identified 33 digital collections which have employed some type of knowledge organization system in their search interfaces.Cet article présente les résultats d’une étude sur la manière dont les systèmes d’organisation des connaissances sont utilisés par les collections des bibliothèques numériques canadiennes, afin d’assister le comportement de recherche informationnelle des utilisateurs. Cette étude a identifiée 33 collections numériques qui ont employé certains types de systèmes d’organisation des connaissances dans leurs interfaces de recherche.

This project focuses on a sample of six Web-based libraries in the field of Education. Our analysis explores structural, logic and semantic dimensions, supported by theoretical research in classification and in the area of personal document spaces organization, and by findings of previous analyses of Web directory structures. Our findings expand our understanding of how Web-based resources in education are organized, helping us determine whether categorization schemes and keywords reflect anything else than local perspectives and systems, while bringing together two research traditions issued respectively from knowledge organization and from document and records management.Ce projet est axé sur un échantillon de six bibliothèques sur le Web dans le domaine de l’éducation. Notre analyse explore les dimensions structurelles, logiques et sémantiques, corroborée par la recherche théorique en classification et dans le domaine de l’organisation des espaces documentaires personnels, et par les résultats d’analyses préliminaires de la structure des répertoires Web. Nos résultats développent notre compréhension sur la manière dont les ressources Web en éducation sont organisées, nous aidant ainsi à déterminer…

The One

Within the knowledge organization systems (KOS) set, the term “ontology” is paradigmatic of the terminological ambiguity in different typologies. Contributing to this situation is the indiscriminate association of the term “ontology”, both as a specific type of KOS and as a process of categorization, due to the interdisciplinary use of the term with different meanings. We present a systematization of the perspectives of different authors of ontologies, as representational artifacts, seeking to contribute to terminological clarification. Focusing the analysis on the intention, semantics and modulation of ontologies, it was possible to notice two broad perspectives regarding ontologies as artifacts that coexist in the knowledge organization systems spectrum. We have ontologies viewed, on the one hand, as an evolution in terms of complexity of traditional conceptual systems, and on the other hand, as a system that organizes ontological rather than epistemological knowledge. The focus of ontological analysis is the item to model and not the intentions that motivate the construction of the system.

This article proposes that indexing concepts relating to relevance, precision, recall, coextensiveness, exhaustivity, specificity and consistency offer a ready-made model that can be applied to the organization of research data. This knowledge organization model contributes significantly to the ability of researchers to collect and organize data in a manner most likely to shed light on the research problems they address.

Interchange Format

Knowledge organization systems denotes formally represented knowledge that is used within the context of digital libraries to improve data sharing and information retrieval. To increase their use, and to reuse them when possible, it is vital to manage them adequately and to provide them in a standard interchange format. Simple knowledge organization systems (SKOS) seem to be the most promising representation for the type of knowledge models used in digital libraries, but there is a lack of tools that are able to properly manage it. This work presents a tool that fills this gap, facilitating their use in different environments and using SKOS as an interchange format.
