Axiom of the excluded middle: This is the general idea that every idea is either true or false; it is a two-valued system.
Descriptive cataloging: This refers to the type of cataloging that focuses on elements that describe the item, such as the title, author, edition and physical description. This type of cataloging provides the information that is often used for access points, which are the ways in which a record may be searched and identified.
Digital Library: This term has many meanings but the key facts are that: (1) information is stored in digital formats regardless of whether it was originally analog or born digital; (2) the information may be accessed over networks and there is often an element of working with distributed databases; (3) the information is managed as an intentionally gathered collection and there are prescribed paths to follow to access information, such as through a list of authors, topics or titles.
Extensible: capable of being extended.
Fuzzy Logic: This is a new branch of logic that recognizes that there are more than two values that can be consistently defined. The choices may even represent an entire continuum.
Information communication: The term is being used to describe an interactive process of an information exchange between parties using a variety of methods some of which may include technological mediation such as digital libraries and archives or web pages.
Knowledge fishnet: Johansen and Swigert (1994, 15) refer to a similar concept in management organizational structure as a fishnet.
Knowledge society: Drucker coined the term to describe a society in which new knowledge (invention) and new creations (innovation) are the driving forces in economic development. This is in very different than the past when knowledge was used to create major capital projects, such as the mass production line, but knowledge in and of itself had no tangible value.
Metadata: Data about data. Before computers, an example of metadata was the information found on the cards in library card catalogues.
Sublanguage: While generally associated with natural language processing in computer programming, the concept of sublanguages are an outgrowth of the study of genre and languages for special purposes. Sublanguages exhibit the qualities of being highly homogeneous, and of having a highly specialized lexicon. Sublanguages evolve naturally.
Testbed: an electronic environment including data that can be used for testing purposes under controlled circumstances. For example, a set of geographic data in a specific set of databases may be used as a testbed to study new tools for exploring and visualizing the data.
Weightless economy: The concept of the weightless economy fits smoothly with that of the knowledge society. The weightless economy focuses on ingenuity, knowledge and ideas rather than on material items such as automobiles.
