Refstart – Web Based Reference Application
http://www.textalibrarian.com/refstart.php

RefStart is a web-based reference application giving librarians customizable one-click access to reference tools, search, web 2.0 sites and popular social networks. As a standard feature of Text a Librarian, RefStart enables librarians to make the most efficient use of time while receiving and responding to patron inquiries. Inspired by conversations with over 1,000 reference librarians, RefStart is a fully flexible, Library 2.0-friendly addition to Mosio’s Text a Librarian web-based software, increasing efficiencies at (or away from) the library reference desk. Whether yours is an academic, public or special/corporate library, we think you will find it to be incredibly useful for general search, internal library databases and as a helpful, online starting point for your virtual reference tools.

International Journal of Transdisciplinary Research (IJTR)

September 26, 2009

International Journal of Transdisciplinary Research (IJTR)
http://www.ijtr.org/Default.htm

The journal is concerned with extending and integrating the study of economics with disciplines within the natural and social sciences, as well as the humanities. International Journal of Transdisciplinary Research (IJTR) is a journal where alternative frameworks can be disseminated and argued to develop a unifying vision of an economic paradigm that realistically portrays economic systems as a whole. They feel that there needs to be a revolution in the field of economics, to develop new approaches to real world problems. Because economics is intertwined in almost every field of research, they are looking for transdisciplinary research. If science wishes to contribute to solving these real world issues, transdisciplinary collaboration and communication becomes necessary. Therefore, IJTR is a platform for the practice of transdisciplinary research. As such, IJTR is a journal for article submissions on epistemological issues such as:

(1) Sustainability,
(2) Social Multicriteria Evaluations,
(3) Ecological Economics and the Biophysical Foundations of Economics,
(4) Systems Research, and
(5) Complexity and Post Normal Science.

If your research does not fall into these broad categories, then IJTR is not the place to submit your article. The journal is for the constructive argument and the development of alternative ways to govern sustainability. Furthermore, we seek research articles from colleagues in fields other than economics on how economic systems really work.

China-America Digital Academic Library (CADAL)

September 26, 2009

China-America Digital Academic Library (CADAL)
http://www.cadal.cn/enc/

The objective of this [2004 – ed.] project is to create a free-to-read, searchable collection of one million books, primarily in the English language, available to everyone over the Internet. This task is accomplished by scanning the books and indexing their full text. The text file is created, where possible, through optical character recognition. The result will be a unique resource accessible to anyone in the world 24x7x365, without regard to nationality or socioeconomic background. Typical large high-school libraries house fewer than 30,000 volumes. One million volumes is the approximate size of the combined libraries at Carnegie Mellon University. The total number of different titles indexed in OCLC’s WorldCat is about 48 million. One million books, therefore, is more than the holdings of any high-school, equivalent to the library at a substantial university and a significant fraction of all available books. […] National Science Foundation is providing funding for Scanners, Computers, Servers, and Software. These resources from NSF are augmented by almost twenty to one since China and India will be providing the necessary manpower (2,000 man years each, over a four year period).” This has been added to Reference Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Reference Chat Libraries – Global Listing
http://liswiki.org/wiki/Chat_reference_libraries

This list is for libraries with some form of synchronous or chat reference services. An exhaustive list of libraries offering other virtual reference services is nowadays akin to a list of libraries that offer telephone service; to search the thousands of library sites which employ e-mail links or simple web feedback forms, see Libweb. Groups of libraries broader than the individual institutions (individual libraries, libraries within the same university system, or public library county branch system) are shown in bold. Listed by country, state, and then alphabetically by institution (or service name for cooperatives). Vendor information and other notes are listed when possible.
