    Digital Repatriation
    (國立台灣師範大學圖書資訊研究所, 2002-04-??) Loriene Roy; Mark Christal
    This paper describe a project that involved educators and three Native American communities in the construction of a virtual tour now available on the Web site of the National Museum of the American Indian (http://www.conexus.si.edu/). In fall 1998, the Pueblo of Laguna department of Education, the College of Education and Graduate School of Library and Information Science at the University of Texas at Austin, and the Smithsonian * s National Museum of the American Indian (NMA) began the first collaboration that brought Native American students, teachers, and cultural representatives to the NMAI George Gustav Heye Center in New York city. The virtual tour makes extensive use of QuickTime Virtual Reality (QTVR). The panoramas of theexhibition space serve as an interface for accessing the featured objects selected by the students. Clickingon a hot spot over the museum display of a featured object causes the QTVR object to load in a separate Webpage frame accompanied by an interpreted essay written by a student. Clickable floor plans of the exhibition-space offer another method of navigating the virtual tour and accessing the virtual objects.

    Information Science
    (國立台灣師範大學圖書資訊研究所, 2009-04-??) Bing Wang
    The nature of information science (IS) as a discipline has been a matter of dispute almost since the day it was created. What is less controversial is the interdisciplinary nature of the IS field, which has close relationships with such fields as librarianship/library science, computing disciplines, communication, and cognitive science. Since 1990s, with the rapid development and widespread application of computing and information technologies, especially the Internet and WWW, the nature, territory and education of the IS field has been constantly changing, and is increasingly tied to Internet-based technologies and connected to knowledge management and data mining. The relationships between IS and computing disciplines are becoming more complicated than ever. In this paper the similarities and differences between IS, computer science, information systems, and information technology field are examined in terms of their definitions, major research topics, primary foci, practice areas for professionals, and educations. The purpose of this paper is to provide some insights into the essence and roles of IS in contemporary academic community.

    "Book-pilferage Is Not Banditry"
    (國立台灣師範大學圖書資訊研究所, 1999-10-??) Karl Lo
    Recent advance in information technology has enhanced information interchange all over the world. The paper uses a Chinese saying of "book-pilferage is not banditry" to illustrate that technology is only one of many factors in information interchange. Economic, political, legal and any of many other factors could censor information flow. Technology alone cannot mandate information flow. However, technology has the power to moderate the economic, political, legal and other cultural biases to enable the society to become more open to information interchange as a result.
