New directions in digital information delivery in the web environment at the NRC Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Purpose: In 2007, NRC-CISTI launched two new online electronic discovery services, Discover and eBook Loans. This is just the beginning of changes at NRC-CISTI. The paper describes the new services, NRC-CISTI’s plans for transforming document delivery and the importance of these emerging business models for libraries. Design/Methodology/Approach: The paper is conceptual in nature, describing the Discover and eBook Loan services, discussing NRC-CISTI’s plans for transformation from print to electronic document delivery and the impact of the growing dominance of electronic literature, on library resource sharing models. Findings: The new breed of Web-based user oriented services have aroused different reactions in the library community, some very positive, some neutral, some negative. As NRC-CISTI embarks on more changes to its services it will work within the library community to make these services relevant to their needs. Originality/Value: Newly emerging information delivery services related to the digital landscape underlines the richness of new ideas in the library community to improve access to scholarly literature for users.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
