Information Analysis in Digital Library Environments

This chapter addresses the question of how the analysis of results retrieved from online bibliographic information systems changed over the last 32 years as digital libraries have evolved. It demonstrates that Digital Libraries of the future will enable knowledge discovery by providing direct access to the semantic content of documents through the implementation of text mining tools. To achieve this research with IR systems and text-mining tools, pipeline pilot (Bandy, et al., 2009), I2E (Vellay, 2009), and BioText will need to be conducted by experts in information retrieval not just subject scientific specialists.
