As this is my first posting, a short introduction. I'm the senior librarian to the marine scientific library of the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) in Belgium. Besides that full-time job, I am crazy enough to still teach library sciences in the Ghent library school.
This year I need to completely rework my course on Bibliography (history, actual situation and practice). Could anybody of you point me to relevant sources on the net, giving me and my students comprehensive overviews on following topics:
* differences in practice between using 'paper source' bibliographies, and 'digital source' bibliographies
* articles, papers, etc. on this issue: Are printed bibliographies (old & new ones) still needed or are they obsolete?
* articles, papers, etc. dealing with parameters enabling one to estimate digital bibliographic sources on their value (correct, authoritive, comprehensive, concise, etc.).
Many thanks for responses in advance, and my best wishes for 2002!
