Librarianship under wider circumstances (J. Cejpek) ... p. 273-279
The understanding of the present position and further possible development of public libraries in a fast informationalised and globalised society is required from librarians to get rid of the strictly professional view on their expert work. It's necessary for them to understand their own activities and the activities of libraries under wider circumstances. Therefore it is necessary to integrate library science and its education to information science as a research study subject which was developed on a world wide scale in the second half of the 20 century. At the same time a conception of information science should be understood as a subject which aims is to understand the essence and the sense of information in the human society.
On hermeneutic of information retrieval languages (with a special view to thesauri) (T. Samek) ... p. 280-283
Indexing library documents by the means of a thesaurus is examined from the viewpoint of the hermeneutic principles of text interpretation. In the process of everyday indexing, exactly those aspects of the text are systematically neglected that play a central role within hermeneutic analysis, viz., uniqueness of a human being, and historical and cultural determinants of human mind. A borderline between the (necessary) information condensation and the (unnecessary) information barrier cannot be drawn unambiguously since it is, to a certain extent, dependent on the cultural and historical perspective of the perceiving mind.
