Sistemas De Gestão De Conteúdos Em Bibliotecas Os Sistemas de Gestão de Conteúdos aplicados à gestão da informação em bibliotecas universitárias Bruno Daniel Pinheiro Neves Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra 2010 Os Sistemas de Gestão de Conteúdos aplicados à Gestão da Informação em Bibliotecas Universitárias Bruno Daniel Pinheiro Neves Dissertação de Mestrado em Informação, Comunicação e Novos Media apresentada à Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, sob a orientação da Professora Doutora Maria Manuel Borges Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra 2010 Agradecimentos À minha orientadora Prof. Doutora Maria Manuel Borges, pela sua motivação e conhecimento transmitido ao longo da minha formação académica, e pela inteira disponibilidade e dedicação na orientação deste trabalho. Aos meus pais, irmã, cunhado e afilhada, que mesmo distantes, sempre me deram todo o amor, carinho e apoio inestimável. À minha namorada pelo seu constante incentivo e paciência nos momentos de maior desalento. Aos meus amigos e colegas de mestrado, pela sincera amizade e apoio ao longo deste trabalho. iii iv Resumo O crescente volume de informação, associado à desmaterialização da informação, tem revelado dificuldades acrescidas às bibliotecas, e organizações em geral, na gestão da informação publicada na Web. A implementação de sistemas de gestão de conteúdos permitem descentralizar todos os processos de gestão de conteúdos, desde a criação até à publicação, revertendo na optimização dos serviços prestados. A introdução de novas tecnologias e serviços que promovem a participação e partilha de informação no ambiente virtual, a Web 2.0, transformou os comportamentos dos utilizadores desafiando as bibliotecas a adoptarem estratégias para cumprirem a sua missão nos ambientes emergentes. Pretendeu-se com este trabalho demonstrar a aplicação dos sistemas de gestão de conteúdos, no contexto das bibliotecas universitárias, de modo a que estas sejam capazes de gerir os seus conteúdos e estenderem os serviços prestados à comunidade académica no ambiente virtual. A partir da descrição e análise do modo de funcionamento do sistema de gestão de conteúdos Drupal, identificaram-se as diferentes aplicações em bibliotecas universitárias, de modo a gerirem os recursos digitais e alargarem os seus serviços ao utilizador na criação de colecções digitais, gestão do catálogo ou como ferramenta colaborativa dos profissionais de informação. O desenho e instalação do portal para a Biblioteca da Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, obteve, como principais resultados, a possibilidade de pesquisa e recuperação de informação de diferentes plataformas, o suporte à navegação e descoberta da informação, a participação dos utilizadores no enriquecimento dos conteúdos e a partilha e disseminação da informação pelos utilizadores nas redes sociais. Palavras-chave: Sistemas de Gestão de Conteúdos, Bibliotecas Universitárias, Web 2.0, Biblioteca 2.0, Drupal v vi Abstract The growing volume of information associated with the dematerialization of information, has been revealing additional difficulties to the libraries, and organizations in general, in the management of the information published on the Web. The implementation of content management systems allow all processes to decentralize content management, from creation to publication, reversing the optimization of services provided. The introduction of new technologies and services that promote the participation and sharing of information in the virtual environment, Web 2.0, changed the user behavior, challenging libraries to adopt strategies to accomplish their mission in emerging environments. The main goal of this work was to demonstrate the application of content management systems in the context of university libraries, so that they are able to manage their content and extend services to the academic community in the virtual environment. From the description and analysis of the operating mode of the content management system Drupal, we identified the different applications in academic libraries in order to manage digital assets and extend their services to the user in creating digital collections, management of catalog or as a collaborative tool for information professionals. The design and installation of the portal to the library of Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Coimbra, had as main results, the possibility of searching and retrieving information from different platforms, support for navigation and discovery of information, participation of users in enriching content and the sharing and dissemination of information by users in social networks.

    University of British Columbia e-Portfolio Community of Practice Pharmacy e-Portfolio Projects: Lessons Learned Software Used: WebCT’s Presentation Tool • Suggest other HTML editing tools: It might be good to suggest students to use some other HTML editing tools aside from WebCT’s WYSIWYG editor because it’s easier to use, and because loading the Java applet in student’s home computer may cause problems. In addition, using other editor will give students more flexibility and functionality to build a page. o We can instead suggest students to use the built-in HTML editor when they have uploaded a file to the system but want to make some minor changes. o If we suggest other softwares, we have to make sure computers in the faculty computer labs also have the softwares installed too. • Discourage the use of Microsoft word or FrontPage to create HTML files. Since these softwares do not create standard HTML files, it causes a lot of problem when students try to format the pages or change the looking feel of their e-Portfolio. This also creates obstacles for us to troubleshoot students’ problems. We will instead recommend students to use other software (e.g. Netscape or Mozilla Composer, NVU (Mac), or Dreamweaver (Commercial)). • Redesign the template o Not to insert an anchor right before the headings where students might want to change the text, to avoid students from removing the anchors accidentally. o CSS: use an external CSS stylesheet to decrease the file size o Might want to consider creating different pages rather than one long page.

It is not that I want to lie to you; I just don’t want your head to explode. Future classes (especially Web Design II), other books, and experience will refine the topics introduced here.

    DELIVERY OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING FRAMEWORKS THROUGH MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES Veronica ŞTEFAN Valahia University of Targoviste, Carol I Street, Romania [email protected] Andrina GRANIC University of Split, Croatia [email protected] Abstract: More than a fifth of the world’s population will soon have a mobile device and access to the Internet. With so many potential users, the mobile environment sets a fast place for development and, at the same time, requires sustainable education and training to allow users to overpass challenges and benefit of emerging perspectives and opportunities. The authors of this paper aim to approach case scenarios for web content delivery methods based on mobile technologies within universities and training centres. They present the template philosophy and illustrate the concept with template applications developed for the Mobile Learning Environment and explore their transformation into other domains of application. Keywords: Mobile Learning Environment, Mobile technology, User interface, mobiReady I. INTRODUCTION The IT revolution has extended to comprise both innovative technologies and new approaches that provide learning actors with new capabilities. It has gone beyond the desktop environment with the emergence of mobile technologies, kiosks and portable storage that are making information accessible anywhere, anytime. The new technologies provide better tools that make information easier to find and to verify, and they expand the opportunities users have to interact with, contribute to and access various types of information and knowledge. Recent technology created new dimensions of development where libraries have no walls and keep no hours, and where people can interact physically with information in exciting and innovative ways.
