De Gruyter Lexikonpolitik: Die erste Auflage der RGG im Horizont protestantischer Lexikographie
Book Synopsis“Die Religion in Geschichte und Gegenwart” (RGG) (Religion in Past and Present ), and its first edition in particular, achieved a significant position in the history of theology like no other encyclopaedia. On the one hand, it lent expression to the dominant theological trends of its time, while on the other it provided theological impulses of its own.This study recreates the importance of the RGG for the history and politics of theology in the context of the publishing history of Protestant lexicography. Lexico-political issues are discussed with regard to aspects of academic, theological, educational and publishing policies.The study closes a gap in the research, as theological encyclopaedias have hitherto been seen as a neglected field of research.

De Gruyter Handbook of Information Science
Book SynopsisDealing with information is one of the vital skills in the 21st century. It takes a fair degree of information savvy to create, represent and supply information as well as to search for and retrieve relevant knowledge. How does information (documents, pieces of knowledge) have to be organized in order to be retrievable? What role does metadata play? What are search engines on the Web, or in corporate intranets, and how do they work? How must one deal with natural language processing and tools of knowledge organization, such as thesauri, classification systems, and ontologies? How useful is social tagging? How valuable are intellectually created abstracts and automatically prepared extracts? Which empirical methods allow for user research and which for the evaluation of information systems? This Handbook is a basic work of information science, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state of information retrieval and knowledge representation. It addresses readers from all professions and scientific disciplines, but particularly scholars, practitioners and students of Information Science, Library Science, Computer Science, Information Management, and Knowledge Management. This Handbook is a suitable reference work for Public and Academic Libraries.Trade ReviewWolfgang and Mechtild Stock's Handbook of Information Science [...] weighs 3lbs 4 oz (1.47 kg) and has 901 pages, the end result of sustained elucubration and Stakhanovite resolve on part of the authors.(Blaise Cronin, Journal of the American Society of Information Science and Technology 64 (11): 2189, 2013).

De Gruyter Changing Roles of NGOs in the Creation, Storage, and Dissemination of Information in Developing Countries
Book SynopsisNon-governmental organizations (NGOs) are growing exponentially. In 1993, the Yearbook of International Organizations listed 16,000 internationally recognized NGOs. By 2004, this number was 63,000. With this increase comes a staggering growth in the activities and intellectual output of NGOs working on a local and international level. As the mission of both libraries and NGOs increasingly intersect, these organizations must collaborate to provide essential services that revolve around the creation, dissemination, and storage of information. This volume's eight essays focus on collaborative work between NGOs and libraries in the study and resolution of global issues ranging from AIDS to food security, and social transformation.
