  • ISO/TC46 (Information and Documentation) Liaison to IFLA
    ISO/TC46 (Information and Documentation) liaison to IFLA Annual Report 2015 TC46 on Information and documentation has been leading efforts related to information management since 1947. Standards1 developed under ISO/TC46 facilitate access to knowledge and information and standardize automated tools, computer systems, and services relating to its major stakeholders of: libraries, publishing, documentation and information centres, archives, records management, museums, indexing and abstracting services, and information technology suppliers to these communities. TC46 has a unique role among ISO information-related committees in that it focuses on the whole lifecycle of information from its creation and identification, through delivery, management, measurement, and archiving, to final disposition. *** The following report summarizes activities of TC46, SC4, SC8 SC92 and their resolutions of the annual meetings3, in light of the key-concepts of interest to the IFLA community4. 1. SC4 Technical interoperability 1.1 Activities Standardization of protocols, schemas, etc. and related models and metadata for processes used by information organizations and content providers, including libraries, archives, museums, publishers, and other content producers. 1.2 Active Working Group WG 11 – RFID in libraries WG 12 – WARC WG 13 – Cultural heritage information interchange WG 14 – Interlibrary Loan Transactions 1.3 Joint working groups 1 For the complete list of published standards, cfr.

  • FS209E and ISO Cleanroom Standards
    FS209E and ISO Cleanroom Standards Before global cleanroom classifications and standards were adopted by the International Standards Organization (ISO), the U.S. General Service Administration’s standards (known as FS209E) were applied virtually worldwide. However, as the need for international standards grew, the ISO established a technical committee and several working groups to delineate its own set of standards. FS209E contains six classes, while the ISO 14644-1 classification system adds two cleaner standards and one dirtier standard (see chart below). The "cleanest" cleanroom in FS209E is referred to as Class 1; the "dirtiest" cleanroom is a class 100,000. ISO cleanroom classifications are rated according to how much particulate of specific sizes exist per cubic meter (see second chart). The "cleanest" cleanroom is a class 1 and the "dirtiest" a class 9. ISO class 3 is approximately equal to FS209E class 1, while ISO class 8 approximately equals FS209E class 100,000. By law, Federal Standard 209E can be superseded by new international standards. It is expected that 209E will be used in some industries over the next five years, but that eventually it will be replaced internationally by ISO 14644-1.

Clearly communicates complex, multivariate ideas. Encourages exploring the data at multiple levels. Efficiently presents many numbers in a small space. Has purpose, not “chartjunk”, and should focus the viewer on the substance of the data, not distract them. Source: The Visual Display of Quantitative Information by Edward R.

Decisions have to be made about the typeface to be used, the size (e.g. 12 point size), weight (e.g. light, semi-bold, bold, extra-bold) and style (e.g. italic). In modern use, a font is a typeface. Fonts are typically classified by form (Serif or San-Serif), era (Old Style, Transitional, Modern, etc.) and spacing (Fixed Width or Variable Width). Serif (Roman) fonts have decorative lines at the end of a stroke: Caslon, Garamond, Goudy, Sabon (Old Style) Baskerville, Georgia (Transitional) Bodoni (Modern) Trajan (Incised) San Serif (Gothic or Grotesque) fonts lack serifs: Frutiger, Gill Sans, Myriad, PT Sans (Humanist) Arial, Franklin, Gothic, Helvetica (Grotesque) Futura, Proxima Nova (Geometric) Garamond Gill Sans Lecture 9: Quantitative Analysis and Presentation of Visual Data April 10, 2017 Fixed Width vs.
