The low occurrence of the # library over the years as Ngram Viewer I wonder if science, a field of knowledge that emphasizes the printed word is being affected by the image and the social web technologies. So I began to look cheerfully web sites dedicated to the dissemination of scientific ideas in video format. I found several, but I recommend three: SciVee
, JoVe and Sciencie Hack. All three have mechanisms to evaluate the material presented by the authorities of each of the disciplines that work. Undoubtedly, the quality of materials is high, although in the latter many videos of the articles are put in Open Access or Open Access. In the first two to enter the platform must register for membership and access to all the videos.
SciVee
has among others backs the champion of open access: PLoS . SciVee científco is a website where researchers can upload, view and share video clips science and spread scientific literature, poster and slides. Any video synchronized with a print publication, they call this site "pubcast" and also give the possibility to add audio-visual material to articles. Even the scientist can upload a podcast (audio web) telling the experience or concept. You can also find videos of lectures, laboratory practice SciVee makes an interesting collection of diverse material search. Registration is free to enter a space where community building, and sharing videos. This site is the closest thing to Youtube at the scientific level.
JoVe would be somewhat synonymous with "publication of visualized experiments ", and basically that is exactly what it offers. A new concept that tries to marry the scientific reporting with video. Think of a typical magazine article of a protocol or experiment, and now imagine that you can actually see the investigator perform the experiments in the video. This is the format used to report JoVe scientific research, and since it is also indexed in PubMed
.
The content really goes beyond what may be a brief video on YouTube. The concept also holds true to the layout of a typical research paper, including an abstract, an introduction and a conclusion. The most interesting part is that you can see the scientist doing the experiment, it is time to read it. This is a change in the presentation of scientific information important. Open video has articles and other subscribers. Among the technical issues can be downloaded from the citations in the RIS format, and managers of EndNote, RefWorks, Reference Manager, ProCite. In addition, under each article you can access a discussion forum on the issue presented, but there must be a member of the site to access this benefit. Without doubt, this website as a pioneer in the way of presenting scientific information.
This a site with characteristics closer to the world of social web, which we are accustomed. This is a search engine for videos from various scientific areas which are monitored by authorities prior to index of area business. As presentation is a very 2.0 site, dedicated to collect videos from various sources related to biology, geography, psychology, physics, robotics, computer and others are being added to over time. Are classified by categories and labeled, which makes for easy retrieval. Youtube videos also collected.
Concluding Remarks
The growth of these sites shows that the "paper" must not only be based on evidence argumentative paper, but other languages \u200b\u200bare becoming part of the dissemination of ideas. All these spaces, most of the videos have the option open to insert anywhere else, apart from shared via Web 2.0. The collective intelligence, networking, philosophies of the web 2.0 are not new to the community científca, but the current web technologies accelerate these processes. The scientific community often works in closed form. In this case, we see that the dissemination of information through the video do it openly, the idea of \u200b\u200bopenness beyond the visualization of the processes for all with excellent quality.
University libraries should be aware of these resources available on the web. Therefore, the information professionals we prepared more than ever to spread this kind of content in their communities.

Do library students need or blog and use social networks?
). To my surprise I got 5 responses and 10 followers. Most agree that it is only necessary that students have their own blog and participate in social networks but professionals in the libraries are aware of the importance of the social web in the world of information in today. Beyond that librarians are dedicated to technological issues, others can not be left out of the development of digital culture in which we live. And for students is important to take learning to use social web tools to promote themselves and start building your resume on it. I am one who constantly drill my students will take advantage of the quarry and displayed online to learn, learn from and the Internet.

The contemporary Internet and its component tools give us a tremendous opportunity to reorganize almost every aspect of our lives. So if you can create an encyclopedia with a million people who have never known, but the quality is as good as the British, what more can you create? There is the possibility of these tools to make things massive, totally unexplored at this time. And we can work together on ways to make deeper questions about the role of government.

Summary of the presentation of the monograph: In the last decade has been a tremendous innovation in the way people go online to each other. Social networks have experienced a rapid increase in popularity, and have generated much concern (privacy, ownership of content) as opportunities. The articles in this journal can be considered attempts to answer a question: what educators should do regarding social networks? The arrival tools of social orientation, often grouped under the label of or web 2.0 social media
, presents a dilemma for higher education. Social networking sites (SNS;
social network sites) would be an advantage for students, and to promote dialogue between colleagues, promote the sharing of resources, facilitate collaboration and develop communication skills. These are all characteristics of online learning that learning management systems (LMS; learning management systems) systems have tried to promote in the last decade of intensive adoption in higher education. The NHS, however, seem to have succeeded with a surprising ease and speed. George Siemens, Martin Weller

social networks and libraries university - 8th. 2010
JBDU leave a 2010 very active in social networks. The next I think will still remain more active. Libraries and librarians in 2011 I think we need to keep reinventing and rethinking to subisistir rapidly changing in this society where information is slipping away like sand us fingers. | Happy New Year to all !!!!! | a2a_config = a2a_config var I teach first year the matter was traversed by many holidays, preparing the participation of the municipal race in Bicentennial celebrations and even mid-year of job uncertainty reguralización ended with my contract situation. | Part
| year | The first of the year started with content from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0. All these topics related to the world of libraries and documentation centers. We focus primarily on digital identity construction of students networking and collaborative work online, to start leverage the web as a resource and platform for lifelong learning. As a tool the Wiki was the most appeared to interest the students and the student group seized the virtual platform of the Institute as a work space for learning.
|
Prioritize the beginning of the year to train librarians in ICT and the web to know and consubstantial of digital culture. Always thinking about the different types of ICT use libraries and what you might think strategically, taking into account that this plasticity important for students' professional life where job opportunities are inclined to work in any kind of library but school libraries are the most graduates of the institute.
As
end task in this first stage, students should reflect on their new digital life as a student related to the world of libraries through social networks, microblogging, digital repositories 2.0. This task served to hone the students behind in the acquisition of skills for this digital world: lifelong learning and collaboration among all.
Part
year The contents are more complex still: digital libraries, virtual, electronic, semantic and institutional repositories, Open Access, online bibliographic management, virtual reference 2.0. And we got the last stage in the work group for presentation at the end. Also in this second stage, as a collective work students made entries in the Google Maps map marking a collective public libraries in the western part of the province of Buenos Aires. I made a Wiki directory of public libraries in the same area.
After the first of the year with a lot of work online by students in the second stage of the art classroom, but I focused on students and did not show the same interest in the subject in the first half. The greatest resistance came with those not engaged quickly with the proposal. But there was a downturn in the general group. The truth that involve cost me again in this form of teaching and learning ICT. And as it advanced their work during the week we could not make much progress in the particular case of the students as they develop digital skills. For next year should check the slogans of the activities and not load too much, make tutorials for each type of tool. And rethink the sequence of activities with content: sometimes I got the feeling vertigonsidad to cover as many tools. This choice was deliberately until I made a halt and begin a final project where students focused tools for a particular type of library. Students who can not grasp the subject again cost them more gripping pace, but were less in reality.
final job
The final work, an issue. At that moment began the last phase of matter. Was the creation of a blog and participation in the social web (social networks, microblogging, collaborative video, social bookmarking, etc..) Recommending ICT tools and uses for a particular type of library. In the first part of the instructions were modified in consultation with the students. The final TP was arming in the class anyway for next year should prepare in advance so that does not happen again that each group is instructed not only in its own way without taking into account the basic slogan. And the matter would be approved with an oral presentation of the students by relating the content viewed, beyond whether they worked or not. Moreover, this presentation should show a 2.0 tool that we have not seen in the field related to their use in a library.
Tools 2.0 for specialized libraries
School Libraries 2.0
only reaches witness the group's oral presentation of the first two very good presentations. Since the last group I found a major health problem and another teacher was in charge of closing. Which I could not make the closure total he had in mind. Concluding Remarks Teaching with and through the Information Technology and Communication for future librarians in an open and social networking is a way of teaching that brings into play the idea of \u200b\u200bwhat teachers and students in the twenty-first century quite different from what the traditional classroom. And this, whether we know or not, is a challenge in many the idea of \u200b\u200bsome students think the teacher always on the student. And for me it's the opposite:
professional learning is and should be increasingly collective, cooperative, collaborative, expanded, networked, global, invisible, learning to learn, because the present society and the information changes as fast as we do not realize.
Therefore, the resistance is some meat, but is part of this form of teaching.
Finally, I thank my students in 2010 libraries that I have always pointed out the mistakes and successes few times. I was taught to learn from and with them and not rest on my laurels. Now what were left to them for professional life that we saw, time and fate will tell.
Happy 2011 to all !!!!!

var a text that I released in 2006 on several mailing lists of librarians. It's time to do so via my blog. The subject does not lose effect in late 2010 and early 2011.
In my case fall under the category of non-readers of Giardinelli librarians: the number of readings of books (in digital and print) I made this year is increasing.
I also want to clarify that at the time worked as a librarian in charge of a public library, but currently also working in a university library I agree much of what I thought at that time.
Here is the text I wrote almost five years
"We get our teaching and our librarians and readers.
Most librarians in Argentina does not read, are a kind of administrative bureaucracy of the book, but they are not readers
. And whoever does not read does not can convey love of books. "
Mempo Giardinelli. "I dream of a nation of readers." "Page 12." Interview published on August 16, 2006 by Silvina Friesen.
Most librarians "do not read" is an expression that I have read by Mempo Giardinelli. I think that the "librarians" is a generalization. In this writer can be forgiven, but to us, specialists in "reading" no. There is a very popular library, one school, one who works in a specialized library in another university. Giardinelli regards to school or seems popular.
Beyond this, what librarians do not read?. Giardinelli Is he right?. To my reading is our main activity. What do we read?. Does it depend on the library to work?. Litaratura If we do not read are not going to ever awaken the sense of reading in others?. Should be investigated. Eye with the idea that reading fiction is the panacea to other fields of knowledge. I do not think that only a country of readers make a better country. (But it is true that if a country does not read, is more difficult to grow). The example is Argentina, a country with high levels of reading in the mid-twentieth century and look where we are, not to speak of France, another example of a highly literate and with a lot of conflicts of racial tolerance as we (...) years lived
In school libraries and popular reading of literary texts is important. So much for the librarian for users. In relation to the librarian as book recommendations in the context of an investigation into the image of the librarian that I am conducting a poll conducted in two public libraries in the area of \u200b\u200bLujan only one respondent replied that a librarian has recommended books. Therefore, l
popular image of the librarian or school as a recommender of books is not listed. Now, why?. What responsibility does our training in this task?. Does a librarian have to like reading literature if it can not be librarian?. My hypothesis is that racing is being deposited librarianship focus on the training of information managers to the detriment of the role of the librarian as a cultural animator, one of the major players in cultural activities and that I repeat, we are not way up there. Thus we lose
aside the symbolic thread that binds us to the other, the one that gives meaning to our actions librarianship.
In fact, this relationship becomes symbolic Diffuse meet the "needs of user information." Perhaps this only take into account the popular and school librarians, but the "information professionals", as it does not stop at discussing these issues "minimal" for his important work in libraries "specialized" and its important constribución may be important.
Well I see in the west of the province of Buenos Aires a high level of awareness of the importance of the presence of public libraries , all schools and in society. And I wonder why
no advertisements in the media that encourages you to read or use of libraries?
, why do the librarians are able to make room in the library list on the image he built a television instead of thinking in creating a media campaign to take forward ABGRA, CONABIP, CABIP , or who is to know what it is our job and recovered?.
Why criticize, as I read somewhere, culture audiovisual, and not take advantage to society aware through the media that there is something called public libraries?
. So apart from them, citizens and the media, are we?.
words, / as librarians popualres, we have no social visibility, we do not know or do not want to see the role we play within the culture goes beyond the shelves around us.
Finally, the / the librarian is supposed to have an image closely linked to the books and this is a task to begin to recover as the fellow linking reading, history subjects with which it works. is starting to relate to the other from the symbolic is our professional identity, in a public library, and school and of any kind.

var In the contemporary debate surrounding information is rarely discussed in the libraries. It is true this statement from Theodore Roskzak. Sometimes it seems that we are the same library that we give importance only to libraries, when in fact they are institutions that people should value and fight for them.
Argentina in our society today libraries have no role crucial, but still generally
places associated with the reading of printed material provided mostly
and outreach services librarian.
back to Theodore Roskzak He explains one of the reasons for the non-incorporation of computers in libraries is the trade issue. The favored companies and those schools are a waste of libraries as public budget if they are filled with computers. Since the age of public libraries or popular people with problems associated with social status and companies do not see this user as a target to sell their software updates.
natural place to Roskzak computers are
libraries. "It can be increased to maximum power and efficiency of the technology, along with democratic access.
If the national government is a policy of" complete "schools netbooks reduce the digital divide, why not also "fill in" the public libraries and popular computer (and I add, book readers e) and turn them into community centers, information and digital literacy (Gee, I do not promote reading).
I have another idea: that public libraries are becoming popular in places with powerful servers to provide connectivity of all kinds and free wifi access to their communities, especially those people who have no Internet. But this utopia would jeopardize the interests of various telecommunications companies. And I stopped dreaming and landed to understand why public libraries and popular are the missing link in the information age.
Apparently, if the citizen and political interest is not noticeable and does not enhance the library as a center for print and digital information of a community, we will continue talking about the popular public libraries or museums of prehistory promotion of reading.

not talk about the commitment of officials and politicians who do not put the libraries in their strategic agenda social and cultural (elections are coming and obviously there is always more important issues that community information.) And if there are isolated policies. Five years ago I participate in my local community meetings with municipal officials on Culture and even once with a mayor, promising action to local public libraries that fade with time.
