IntroductionBackground

“… over the 5 past years, the roles of a librarian to my perspective is more than just at the reference desk or building digital library. It involves passion, professionalism and practices to make you an experience one.

The work of a librarian is beyond the call of duty, where oneself has not only have to look how to understand the flow of information but to create a value in it and experience the immersive in the community

And if that librarian is able to deliver, he/she has achieves more than just building a library. But, oneself who brings in life knowledge to the community….”

He worked out a new scheme that superimposed a system of decimal numbers on a structure of knowledge first outlined by Sir Francis Bacon

And, many public and school like adopt this system till today.

Bibliographic Paradigm

The bibliographical perspective

". . . bibliography is the discipline that studies texts as recorded forms, and the processes of their transmission, including their production and reception . . . I define 'text' to include verbal, visual, oral, and numeric data . . ." .

(McKenzie, 1999: 12).

Today’s Bibliographic Paradigm

VSUSERS

SYSTEM

Physical Paradigm (System-Oriented Approach)

1. Mechanical,

2. Based on abstract generalizations about information retrieval languages,

3. Reductionist

Often, one have the feeling that by "system" is meant "computer system".

However, also the bibliographical system have been understood as part of the "systems oriented approach" (c.f., bibliographic paradigm).

Cognitive views (User Views)

Cognitive paradigms in LIS are approaches inspired by cognitive psychology and the interdisciplinary field known as cognitive sciences.

"That any processing of information, whether perceptual or symbolic, is mediated by a system of categories or concepts which, for the information processing device, are a model of his [its] world"

(de Mey, 1977, p. xvi-xvii & 1980, p. 48).

But again, the objective

Enumerative bibliography“… share a common factor: this may be a topic, a language, a period, or a theme.

An entry for a book in a bibliography usually contains the following information:

1. author(s)2. Title3. Publisher4. date of publication

An entry for a journal or periodical article usually contains:

5. author(s)6. article title7. journal title8. Volume9. Pages10. date of publication

Enumerative bibliography

A bibliography may be arranged by: 1. author, 2. topic, or 3. some other scheme

Annotated bibliographies give descriptions about how each source is useful to an author in constructing a paper or argument.

These descriptions, usually a few sentences long, provide a summary of the source and describe its relevance.

Building a Meaningful Portal

Yet Viral …

The Open Graph Protocol

The Open Graph protocol enables any web page to become a rich object in a social graph.

For instance, this is used on Facebook to allow any web page to have the same functionality as any other object on Facebook.

The Open Graph ProtocolThe Idea

Convert the web from a hyperlinks related Documents to related Objectsts

Make it a part of the Social Graph

Depend on the social connection nested of the links and page ranks

The famous 3 concept

Key Concept – Actions and ObjectTitle

Actions and objects are the building blocks of Open Graph.

Actions are the high level social actions users can perform in your app.

Objects represent the type of things that users can connect with in your app.

The diagram below illustrates the process:

1.User takes an action in the app, such as "cook" a "recipe“

2.App calls a Graph API /me/action:object=Object_URL

3.Facebook will crawl the object URL, read its meta tags and connects the object to the user's Graph via the action.

----------------------------------------------------

The Open Graph protocol was originally created at Facebook and is inspired by Dublin Core , link-rel canonical , Microformats , and RDFa .

Key Concept – Open Graph Mechanics

Social ChannelsNews Feed and Ticker

When an action is published, the activity may appear in their News Feed and friends' News Feeds and will appear in their friends' Ticker.

Social ChannelsTimeline

Timeline represents a user's identity on Facebook.

Social ChannelsAggregations and Reports

Aggregations are summaries of Open Graph activities which showcase a user's interactions with your app on their Timeline in structured and interesting ways.

Social ChannelsTimeline Views

Timeline Views are app specific views on a user's Timeline.

The ImplementationThe Open Graph Protocol plugin gives you a lot of flexibility when it comes to generating the required meta tags for these pages.
