Accessing Scientific Information : from a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center
Library resources as primary knowledge resources for research and teaching
Librarians’ competence for organizing, archiving and retrieving the memory of the institution : reports, studies, articles…
The library as the institutional access point for:
• Scientific literature and information• Searching• Discovering • Learning

Accessing Scientific Information : from a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center
Scientific libraries adopt new information systems and services and are at the forefront of knowledge for the benefit of searchers
They collect :• Printed books, journals, articles, dissertations• Non commercial documents : grey literature, conference
papers, preprints…• Digital knowledge resources : online journals, special media
collections• Internal documents
They provide :• A large variety of services to end-users : loans, interlibrary
loans, copies, searches in databases, alerts, training…

Accessing Scientific Information : from a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center
They play a key-role in helping end-users (decision makers, researchers, physicians)
• Seeking reliable and quality information
• Proposing a large range of sources of information (printed, digital, on Internet, grey literature)
• Training them to seek information in databases, on the Internet, with on-line and in person instruction modules or guides ; building searching strategies
• Helping them to evaluate information

The Researcher and the Information Scientist
• Both are « knowledge workers »• With different knowledge• But partners
• Exchange and dialog are essential• In order to understand each other• In order that the IS can bring his experience of seeking
information• In order to find the most appropriate answer to a question
or a problem

Accessing Scientific Information : from a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center
New trends in the library world
• Most libraries in academic or private sectors tend to become Distance Research Services, E-Learning Centers or Knowledge Centers
• It means the conjonction of traditional information media and the most advanced technological tools
• The end-user is viewed as a unique person, with specific needs, who wants instant access to information
• Document management includes information management and knowldege management

One example : the end-user’s «profile »
• He can determine his own information environment
– His needs – His favorite sources of information (selected databases or
Internet websites ; online journals…)– His alerts (through email, SMS or RSS) – What kind of results he wants and for how long– How he wishes to get them (at his desk, in the library, in
print or electronic format)– He can manage references himself with a bibliographic
software package

Accessing Scientific Information : from a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center
From a Scientific Library to a Knowledge Center means :
-> Information Management :• On-site and off-site• Accessible anytime• Providing selected and reliable sources of information• Assisting end-users seeking information• Training end-users
-> and Knowledge Management :• Gathering, managing and promoting internal information and
reports• Building a central repository (Learning Object Repository-LOR)
