Bibliomining For Library Decision-Making: Key Terms

This document discusses how data mining and bibliometrics techniques can be applied to library transaction logs and metadata to support decision making. Several studies are cited that have used techniques like neural networks, keyphrase indexing, and log analysis to develop user profiles and recommend resources. The goal is to extract useful insights from existing library data to inform collection development, resource allocation, and service improvement rather than relying solely on qualitative assessments. Data mining approaches can provide an evidence-based approach to library management and strategy.
