* Key Concepts:- Connectivity- Client-Server Computing- Windows Concept / Multitasking- Workflows
Used fundamentally for the intellectual enhancement of data (metadata), and for optimizing workflows
Exercise: Designing your ideal local TSW and sending it by email to [email protected]
Module I: Introduction to the TSW
![Page 6: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
* Long period of probation and mentorship with senior cataloger (testing, additional learning)
- Why was this necessary? Communication and access to information was very primitive
* Technology brings new forms of communication:-OPAC: shelflisting/classification and subject analysis
-Utilities: RLIN and OCLC- Cataloger’s Desktop and Classification Plus- We can radically shorten training because of new technologiesExercise: Introduce TSW cataloging by usingCataloging client software, LC documentation LIAS (OPAC): two versions: telnet and the VEL Utilities: OCLC and RLIN
Module II: The Transformation of Cataloging
![Page 7: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
* PSU Cataloging Web site-Training materials - Minutes - Reference materials (in-house)-‘Cheat sheets’* Use of Web for information and reference sources
-looking for people (dates), use of email also-country information - historical information-unknown concepts
* Professional communication-listservs, professional association Web sitesAUTOCAT archive on Web (as example)
* Email (colleagues) * Folio VIEWSExercise: Use online resources to answer cataloging-related questions.
Module III: Communication, Online Documentation and Intranets

Realizing an Idea: Anno 1900
![Page 10: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
James McDonnell, professor of Classics at Penn:
“Pioneers are entitled to be fools. Busting sod on the prairie was a disastrous mistake for many, a barely sustainable life for many many more But it was also a necessary stage towards a productive and, I think we would all agree, valuable economy and culture.”
“Let me put it this way. Was an automobile a cost-effective purchase in 1915?”

1980's - The Promise of Personal Computing Only Partially Fulfilled
PCs did not have enough power to meet sophisticated demands of technical services staff
They could not run multiple simultaneous operations
They were still too linear in their orientation They were based on command-line operations
![Page 16: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The 90's - The Revolution in Personal Computing Arrives
Developing hardware (Pentium processors, increased memory, greater storage, etc.) permits development of more sophisticated software
Microsoft releases Windows 3.1 (graphic OS as an industry standard)
32-bit computing leads to greater multi-tasking like questions.

Technical Services Workstations
The TSW is a conceptual model for computing in library technical services.
The TSW is not a single product created and marketed by a commercial vendor.
The TSW is not just a powerful PC loaded with unrelated software applications.
The TSW is an intelligent workstation that supports the intellectual activity of staff.
![Page 20: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The TSW Operating Environment The TSW uses a graphic-user-interface. This can be
Microsoft Windows or the Macintosh Operating System. Workstations provide access to a variety of resources, or
software applications, through a uniform user interface. The TSW must have enough power to run multiple
applications simultaneously. Workstations support enhanced editing and inputting
capabilities. Workstations are networked-- to a local area network, to a
TCP/IP Ethernet link, and to the Internet.

Characteristics of Clients
Client-server systems make use of distributed computing.
Clients are not bound by a single operating system.
User-interface and client software applications perform most processing functions.

Purpose and Goals:
Every organization must possess a pervasive understanding why it exists (mission statement). Every staff member must have this understanding. In this regard it is a conscious turning away from
the Industrial Revolution; the most important
capital of an organization are its staff, not
machines..
![Page 34: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Work is transformed and concentrated fully around quality improvement of products and services. This striving toward continuous quality improvement is integrated into the essence of an organization, and this effort implies a complete restructuring of the organization around quality.
Restructuring Around Quality Improvement
![Page 35: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Changes in Staffing
A department is much more flexible in utilizing staff.
Management takes on a leadership role in coordinating activities, rather than being a source of authority.
Computing is shifted from a remote systems office to individual staff, who are actually responsible for carrying out the work.
New services are created due to a much more responsive work environment.
New demands are made on the skill levels of staff.

Digital Libraries
The digital library is not a single entity; it is by nature distributed;
The digital library requires technology to link the resources of many;
The linkages between the many digital libraries and information services are transparent to the end users;
Digital libraries provide an intellectually enhanced organization of material
Digital library collections are not limited to document surrogates: they extend to digital artifacts that cannot be represented or distributed in printed formats.
![Page 39: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Campus Camputing Infrastructure
Developed enough for digital resources to become a formal part of instruction. Most students have their own Web-capable PCs, and universities now have fast, robust campus-wide networking systems with remote access from home.
Large computing labs of over 400 PCs are now common.
![Page 42: Technical Services Workstations PALINET Workshop Roger Brisson rob1@psu.edu Robert Freeborn rbf@psulias.psu.edu.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/5697bf841a28abf838c86d15/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Both students and professors are rapidly developing the skills to work in the online environment. Universities like Penn State have developed extensive online resources for setting up their PCs and learning to use the campus Internet infrastructure.
All students at Penn State automatically receive an email account (Eudora) and their own Web space upon enrolling at the university. Penn State now has over 70,000 email accounts.

The Move to Fully Digital Instruction
Univ North Carolina Makes Laptops Compulsory“As part of the Carolina Computing Initiative, any freshman who expects to attend classes at University of North Carolina Chapel Hill campus must have their own laptop computer. It is the third campus in the state to set such a requirement for entering students.”
