The chronology reports on research (theory, empirical, and grant/patent related), teaching, and service activities led by Steven L. MacCall, PhD, associate professor in the School of Library and Information Studies (SLIS) at the University of Alabama.
Research into indexing efficiency and effectiveness is a long standing area for information science investigators. Applications of such research include the improvement of systems design as well as informing the teaching of information professionals to better prepare them for the technological intensities of the modern metadata work environment. In a professional school such as SLIS, it is vitally important to have teaching and service activities information by research.
One would expect that research questions would evolve over time, and in that spirit, these are the present day global research questions presently in force for this research program:
- Efficiency (scalability)
- Effectiveness
The entries below are inverse chronologically and are coded as follows:
