This paper, based on PhD research, reflects upon the market for electronic books in the general trade sectors of UK and US
publishers during the early years of the 21st century. The paper reports on interviews carried out with publishers between
2003 and 2005, and reflects upon four areas which presented and still present challenges to the uptake of e-books—negative
perceptions from consumers; formats; pricing and issues regarding digital rights. The paper concludes that the development
and uptake of electronic books has some way to go in the general trade/mass-market sectors.

Curious Archives examines the creation of the museum of archives, the Musée de l’Histoire de France, at the Imperial Archives
of France under the direction of Leon de Laborde, 1858–1867. This museum was intended as a crucial tool for publicizing the
Archives and educating the public, but also represented a break from the Archives’ role as administrative storehouse both
in practice and in the popular imagination. The museum’s conception and reception reveal conflicts around the Archives’ mission
and contents, particularly regarding public interest, the potential dangers of public curiosity, and nature of documentary
and historical knowledge in nineteenth-century France.

This article provides a summary of and commentary on ‘A Lovely Kind of Madness: Small and Independent Publishing in Australia’,
an unpublished report by Kate Freeth, commissioned by the Small Press Underground Networking Community (SPUNC), the representative
body for small and independent publishers in Australia, and released in November 2007. Freeth’s 14,000 word report constitutes
the most detailed and comprehensive study of Australian small and independent publishing since the second volume of Michael
Denholm’s Small Press Publishing in Australia (1991) and provides much primary material for policy makers, scholars, and people working in and around the publishing industry.

On rank-based effectiveness measures and optimization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Many current retrieval models and scoring functions contain free parameters which need to be set—ideally, optimized. The process
of optimization normally involves some training corpus of the usual document-query-relevance judgement type, and some choice
of measure that is to be optimized. The paper proposes a way to think about the process of exploring the space of parameter
values, and how moving around in this space might be expected to affect different measures. One result, concerning local optima,
is demonstrated for a range of rank-based evaluation measures.

World Book and Copyright Day was established by a resolution of the 28th General Council of UNESCO in 1995. Its avowed aim
was ‘to pay a world-wide tribute to books and authors on this date, encouraging everyone, and in particular young people,
to discover the pleasure of reading and gain a renewed respect for the irreplaceable contributions of those who have furthered
the social and cultural progress of humanity.’ This article examines the context for World Book and Copyright Day, the extent
to which cultural and commercial interests have converged in the activities of the day and argues that an analysis of the
activities of the day reveal a specifically European attitude to book culture.

This article describes the first half century of the Communist government’s supervision and management of the central-government
archives of the last two dynasties. Immediately with the Communist ascent to power in 1949, the new government took great
interest in assembling and protecting the country’s archival documents, readying the Ming-Qing archives for access to scholars,
and preparing for publication of selected materials. By the 1980s Beijing’s Number One Historical Archives, in charge of the
largest holding of Ming-Qing documents, had become the first Chinese authority to complete a full sorting and preliminary
catalogues for such a collection. Moreover, to facilitate searches, an attempt has recently begun to create a subject-heading
system for these and other holdings in the country. In the first half century’s final decades, foreign researchers were admitted
for the first time and tours and international exchanges began to take place.

Through a reading of the archived letters of Henry Garnet (1555–1606), Superior of the Jesuit order in England and suspected
Gunpowder plotter, this article investigates the nature of the archive in relation to narrative theory. Figuring the archive
as one of the number of narrating voices accrued by the individual record, I argue that models of communication such as those
put forward by Roman Jakobson, Wayne C. Booth and Seymour Chatman afford useful insights into the ways in which power is inscribed
and reinscribed in the record through successive acts of reading and rewriting.

A comparison of analyses of the Scottish publishing industry carried out in 1992, 2002 and 2007 underscores the fragility
of the sector within a small country within the English-language community. A number of indices reveal either stability or
stagnation and the picture emerges of the remarkable tenacity of publishing in Scotland. Although there is already a significant
and vital element of state support for publishing in Scotland, further intervention will be necessary to ensure fulfilment
of its potential.

This paper gives an overview of the archival issues that relate to digitally signed documents. First, by way of introduction,
the advanced digital signature is presented briefly. In the second part, a number of problems are discussed that present themselves
when a digital signature is used as a proof of authenticity and integrity for digital documents in general. In particular,
it is also being investigated whether it makes any sense for the archivist to digitally sign all electronic records under
his or her management. Problems relating to the (medium) long-term archiving of digitally signed documents are dealt with
in the third part. After an overview of the sticking points for long-term validation (“Archival issues”) a number of possible
solutions are discussed (“Solutions for long-term archiving”).

This paper reviews the archival process at the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), a repository
of digital social science data, and maps ICPSR’s Ingest and Access operations to the Open Archival Information System (OAIS)
Reference Model. The paper also assesses ICPSR’s conformance with the archival responsibilities of “trusted” OAIS repositories,
with the proviso that audit criteria for archival certification are still under development. The ICPSR to OAIS mapping exercise
has benefits for the larger social science archiving community because it provides an interpretation of the reference model
in the quantitative social science environment and points to preservation-related issues that may be salient for other social
science archives. Building on the archives’ long tradition of shared norms and cooperation, we may ultimately be able to design
a federated system of trusted social science repositories that provides access to the global heritage.

With increasingly higher numbers of non-English language web searchers the problems of efficient handling of non-English Web
documents and user queries are becoming major issues for search engines. The main aim of this review paper is to make researchers
aware of the existing problems in monolingual non-English Web retrieval by providing an overview of open issues. A significant
number of papers are reviewed and the research issues investigated in these studies are categorized in order to identify the
research questions and solutions proposed in these papers. Further research is proposed at the end of each section.

The market for Japanese comics, called manga, in the United States grew rapidly at the beginning of the twenty first century
at a rate unprecedented in the publishing industry. Sales grew a remarkable 350% from $60 million in 2002 to $210 million
in 2007 and did not begin to decline until the beginning of the recent economic downturn beginning in late 2008. No published
research is yet able to account for this phenomenon in a manner that is both socially-situated and medium-specific. In this
paper, I provide such a sociological account of the rise of manga in the United States and its implications for the globalization
of culture. Adapting Pierre Bourdieu’s theoretical formulation of the cultural field, I argue that manga migrated from the
comics field to the book field and that the ways in which industry practices, distribution networks, and target demographics
differ between the two fields are directly responsible for the medium’s newfound visibility. Furthermore, I argue that, despite
the now-common transparency of the Japanese origin of Japanese titles, the American publishing industry’s creation of manga
as a category of books distinct from other comics is an ineluctable naturalizing process that ultimately erases from American
consciousness the Japanese, the foreign, the other.

Smoothing of document language models is critical in language modeling approaches to information retrieval. In this paper,
we present a novel way of smoothing document language models based on propagating term counts probabilistically in a graph
of documents. A key difference between our approach and previous approaches is that our smoothing algorithm can iteratively
propagate counts and achieve smoothing with remotely related documents. Evaluation results on several TREC data sets show that the proposed method significantly outperforms the
simple collection-based smoothing method. Compared with those other smoothing methods that also exploit local corpus structures,
our method is especially effective in improving precision in top-ranked documents through “filling in” missing query terms
in relevant documents, which is attractive since most users only pay attention to the top-ranked documents in search engine
applications.

The classical Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) forms the theoretical basis for probabilistic Information Retrieval (IR)
models, which are dominating IR theory since about 20 years. However, the assumptions underlying the PRP often do not hold,
and its view is too narrow for interactive information retrieval (IIR). In this article, a new theoretical framework for interactive
retrieval is proposed: The basic idea is that during IIR, a user moves between situations. In each situation, the system presents
to the user a list of choices, about which s/he has to decide, and the first positive decision moves the user to a new situation.
Each choice is associated with a number of cost and probability parameters. Based on these parameters, an optimum ordering
of the choices can the derived—the PRP for IIR. The relationship of this rule to the classical PRP is described, and issues
of further research are pointed out.
