The survey is a recognized and accepted part of the modern society. It is one of the means
by which society keeps it informed, away
of bringing under central situations of
increasing size and complexity of obtaini ng perceptive and standard of com parison. A
survey gives an oversight of a field and is thus distinguishing from a sort of study whi ch
consists of a m icroscopic examination of a turf ; it is a m ap rather than a detailed plan.
The survey must be planned before a start is made.
1.2 PURPOSE OF THE LITERATURE SURVEY

to
library web services.” New Library World 109.1/2 (2008): 25-45.
Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to present usability heuristics for the evaluation of

heuristics critical from the usability viewpoi nt; heuristics concer ning m ajor problem s;
and heuristics connected to m inor usability problems but still im portant and concerning

Abstract: T he purpose of this paper is to prov ide lib rary m anagers with th e ability to
recognize and address World 2.0 infor mation issu es to enhance their ability to develop
management plans for the future. This pape r explores what Worl d 2.0 m eans to library
managers in three ways. Three inform ation di mensions are identified using m odels to
examine World 2.0 in a histor
ical context. An analysis
is conducted of the different
generations of users in World 2.0 including th eir diverse attitud es, beliefs, experiences
and skills and how these influence their enga gement with the inf ormation environment.
Four key characteristics of Web 2.0 are identified through
an analysis of Web 2.0 in
relation to World 2.0. Key findings in this paper are that: three dimensions of information
in W orld 2.0 exist and can be used by libra
ry m anagers to help them understand the
challenges and to facilitate th e construction of strategic m anagement plans that address
them. Generational and organizational pers
pectives of W orld 2.0 can influence how
libraries engage Web 2.0, and should be considered when library managers make -
