Die Computergesellschaft setzt sich aus Menschen, Nicht-Menschen und Hybriden zusammen. Bibliotheken sind in den Netzwerken der Computergesellschaft ein Akteur unter vielen Akteuren. Bibliotheken stehen im Wettbewerb um die besten Applikationen, Methoden und Technologien. Durch branchenfremde Newcomer befinden sich Bibliotheken in einem Innovationsdruck. Den Herausforderungen auf den zukünftigen dynamischen Wissensmärkten können Bibliotheken durch Anpassung der Organisationsstrukturen und Schaffung von kollaborativen Teamkulturen begegnen. Die Integration von unterschiedlichen Stakeholdern erfordert neue Führungstheorien, da hierarchische Strukturen zu star sind, um neuartige Teamkonzepte und virtuelle Zusammenarbeit zwischen kommerziellen und nichtkommerziellen Akteuren händeln zu können.
Since Bologna, the international profile of a university constitutes an important criterion in the accreditation procedures, driving libraries to react to the growing number of international students. While being regarded as an individual target group by US-American and British university libraries, German academic libraries pay only scant attention to this audience -- apart from occasional introductory sessions, the community has not yet launched an overall concept so far. Moreover, discussions about diversity management and intercultural library services focus on public libraries only. The poster addresses a conceptual framework for an information literacy instruction program for international students at German academic libraries. Based on students' characteristics, their home library experiences, citation practices and learning cultures, the poster proposes training contents and teaching methods. It lists best practices and points out the importance of raising awareness of diversity and interculturalism as well as enhancing various skills among library staff.
In the course of the reestablishment of the Institute of German Philology at the University of Münster, Germany, its four originally independent libraries were merged into one single library until the end of 2011. Each of the former departmental libraries used a shelf classification of its own. In spite of these classifications covering different key subjects there are nu-merous thematic overlaps so that they cannot be used side by side for arranging the library holdings. Moreover the classifications are partly outdated, their hierarchical structures are very heterogeneous, and the shelf marks are formed according to differing principles. This situation calls for a new classification which allows the consistent shelving of the library’s media and which is updated and reworked on a regular basis.
By analysing the classifications used so far, by comparing the approaches of libraries dealing with a similar problem, by surveying several possible classifications and by drawing classifica-tion samples the first part of this thesis argues for the replacement of the old institute’s classi-fications by the Regensburger Verbundklassifikation. By considering the different aspects of a potential change of classification and by making proposals for necessary decisions the second part of the thesis lays the foundations for a detailed planning of such a reclassification project for the institute’s library.
