Saturday, November 8 • 9:45am - 10:45amCrowd Sourcing of Library ServicesSome of the innovations in user services for libraries are enabled by various approaches to crowd-sourcing. Crowd-sourcing has a long history in libraries (shared cataloging, the first edition of the OED, etc.). But the web opens up a whole new set of opportunities. What are the principles that result in successful crowd-sourcing, i.e.: the "wisdom of crowds" rather than either a wasteland or even worse "the madness of crowds?" The panelists will share experiences in crowd-sourcing of reference (CrowdAsk at Purdue University), crowd-sourcing of user-advisory services (ChiliFresh), and crowd-sourcing of metadata for catalogs (LibraryThing for Libraries).

The notion of a powerful god is often said to play a significant role in supporting the transition from small relatively equal hunter and gatherer societies to big hierarchical societies. However, as RUSSELL GRAY explains in this video, while there is a correlation between “big gods” and “big societies”, this is no causal relationship. By comparing the evolution of different forms of social organization in cultures with a common ancestry in the Pacific and Southeast Asia the researchers found that these societies grew bigger first and only then borrowed the notion of a powerful god through the influence of Muslim traders. Another result on the influence of religion is that ritual human sacrifice played a major role in maintaining or even promoting social inequality.

Monetary incentives, even though apparently efficient in driving performance of workers, have drawbacks, explains BRUNO S. FREY. They can result in a reorientation of workers from their focus on quality towards merely meeting objectives. The experiment presented in this video studies the impact of replacing monetary incentives with symbolic awards. The positive effect on the performance of workers highlights the potential of a well calibrated award environment. The individual’s needs for recognition and acknowledgement of efforts show to be key elements in boosting intrinsic motivation.

Contrary to the common understanding, NIELS PETERSEN shows that courts do not use balancing to engange in judicial activism. Instead, they restrain themselves and employ proportionality as an instrument of rationality review, i.e. a means for compensating political market failures.
