  1. EU as a Domain for Library and Information Science (LIS)Bobcatsss 2003Elisabet SindingAssociate ProfessorRoyal School of Library and Information ScienceDepartment of Information Studies6 Birketinget , DK-2300 Copenhagen S. Denmark. www.db.dk/eses@db.dk

  2. EuropaSider.dk - www.europasider.dk • The navigation bars:1. EU politics • 2. EU institutions3. EU external relations • 4. EU sources5. EU debate • 6. Danish EU administration7. A standard reference book about Danish politics • 8. About the subject guide

  3. EuropaSider.dk - www.europasider.dk • Inside the subject fields the links and documents have • a firm structure: • Servers and institutions (EU institutions) • EU programs (EU institutions) • Papers • Danish EU administration • Organizations • Articles and journals • Research institutions, media and links

  4. From LIS practice to a theoretical LIS focus • The UNISIST model (UNISIST Report, 1971) • The domain-analytic approach in Information Science (IS) (Hjørland 1993 and 2002)

  5. UNISIST model • Generalized model • Domain specific characteristics or technical innovations is • not portrayed • (UNISIST Report, 1971)

  6. The domain-analytic approach in Information Science (IS) • 11 approaches • Producing literature guides or subject gateways • Constructing special classifications and thesauri • Indexing and retrieving specialities • Empirical user studies • Bibliometrical studies • Historical studies • Document and genre studies • Epistemological and critical studies • Terminological studies, language for special purpose (LSP), database semantics and discourse studies • Structures and institutions in scientific communication • Scientific cognition, expert knowledge and artificial intelligence (AI) • (Hjørland 2002)

  7. EU as a domain combined with the UNISIST model • EU as a knowledge producing domain, e.g. Area Studies, withown journals and information systems • Knowledge producers: the authors in journal and and other documents reporting European Area Studies • Readers: the knowledge users • Intermediary institutions databases, publishers, libraries, and processes: information services

  8. EU as a domain • EU as a knowledge producing domain, e.g. part of Area Studies, with own journals and information systems • EU as part of many other disciplines e.g. law, economics, administrative studies, history, with their disciplinary journals and information systems

  9. EU as a knowledge producing domain combined with the UNISIST model • Primary source: scholarly knowledge and insights in a subject field. • Secondary source: abstracting and indexing servicesbibliographies, library catalogues etc. • Tertiary sources: consolidates, collects and synthesizes the primary documents.

  10. EU as knowledge producercombined with the UNISIST model • Primary source: the EU law produced by EU • Secondary source: abstracting and indexing servicesbibliographies, library catalogues etc. mainly produced by EU • Tertiary sources: booklets, fatct sheets, summaries of law bodies etc., mainly produced by EU • Internet Many websites maintained by the EU institutions include all tree type of sources

  11. Revised UNISIST model • The punctured ellipse symbolize a scientific discipline • The boundary of a domain is not tight • Domains import knowledge from other domains and export • Knowledge to other domains • (Hjørland 2002)
