	abstract = "Collaboration in the digital domain offers an opportunity to provide enhanced digital services and extended reach to the community. This paper adopts a service oriented perspective through which it considers environmental drivers for digital library collaboration, discusses emergent collaborative partnerships across UK educational institutions, social services, health services, private industry, and cultural sectors, considers associated challenges, and identifies best practice. Existing and potential synergistic relationships are explored across the broader cultural sector in particular, with the respective processes of libraries, museums, archives, arts and broadcasting organisations comprehensively identified and mapped (commonality), and the relationship to service oriented architecture highlighted. Degree of digital service collaboration is also explored through an indicative review of Scottish public library websites, encompassing 32 regional library networks and including the National Library.  Collaboration is found to be evident, but limited in the digital domain, with strategic and architectural recommendations made.",

	abstract = "Information Retrieval (IR) has two main research traditions. These are the empirical or quantitative tradition, which deals primarily with symbol manipulation and matching and does not explicitly concern itself with the problem of meaning, and the cognitive or qualitative tradition, which proposes that the problem of meaning is central to IR. This thesis discusses the basic principles of both these research traditions and concludes that meaning is central to IR and plays an important part in IR research. The empirical tradition often uses mathematical or logical models as a theoretical basis to its work whilst the cognitive tradition tends to use theories from philosophy, psychology or sociology. The theoretical approach taken in this thesis is philosophical rather than mathematical.

The nature of the subjective/objective relationship in meaning is discussed in relation to work in the philosophy of meaning and the issues raised in this analysis are then used to investigate the role of meaning in IR. On the basis of this discussion a dialectical model is developed which provides a new analytical tool for investigating IR problems in terms of their relationship to the dialectical nature of meaning.",
