In the case of a single system review, it helps one to arrive at a list of desirable features, and to identify the strengths and weaknesses of a particular system. In the case of a multiple system review, a parative checklist can help to verify the existence of features across systems and thus to identify parative strengths and weaknesses. ? 在進(jìn)行系統(tǒng)評估時(shí) Checklist是相當(dāng)有用的工具，對單一系統(tǒng)評估，它可以協(xié)助整理需求清單，同時(shí)指出特定系統(tǒng)的優(yōu)缺與弱點(diǎn)。 and (3) performance – to reveal whether the system capacity can meet present or anticipated future demands. ? Peters定義系統(tǒng)評估三個(gè)型式：功能性 —決定系統(tǒng)特性是否符合圖書館需求；經(jīng)濟(jì) —決定系統(tǒng)的支出 (時(shí)間與金錢等 )；效益 —系統(tǒng)是否能夠符合現(xiàn)今或未來的需求。 (3) 明確指出新系統(tǒng)或系統(tǒng)強(qiáng)化的需求 。 (3) the point at which a new system or system refinements are needed。 2而她亦發(fā)現(xiàn)改善使用者服務(wù)是自動(dòng)化系統(tǒng)的主要目標(biāo)，亦是自動(dòng)化的使命。 ? One useful tool that can be used in the selection of systems is a checklist to determine the features present in a particular system or, more particularly, to pare the characteristics of two or more systems. ? 這類的評估通常會(huì)使用 Checklist 工具，以呈現(xiàn)特定系統(tǒng)的特性或比較兩個(gè)系統(tǒng)之間的特色。 。在他的研究中 checklist總共收集了 120因素，並予以歸類聚集成十大類別之中。 。 ? Userinvolved Evaluation: For over twenty years, a growing body of research based on information science and cognitive psychology has been performed to gain a better understanding of how users interact with systems, and how the results of that interaction can be evaluated. One practical goal of this type of research is to collect and analyze information that can be fed back into better system design. ? 使用者參與的評估：資訊科學(xué)與認(rèn)知心理學(xué)人機(jī)互動(dòng)的研究於近廿年來有長足的進(jìn)步，甚至對於互動(dòng)結(jié)果亦可進(jìn)一步進(jìn)行評估。至少有三種方式是可行的：直接檢視交易記錄檔、直接觀察使用者在終端機(jī)操作的情形、或者以影音錄製使用者使用系統(tǒng)績效的情形。甚至對圖書館人員及管理者而言缺乏時(shí)間去分析這項(xiàng)的訊息。 ? It is important to employ valid sampling techniques in conjunction with observation in order to obtain reliable data on which management decisions can be based. For examples, if one wants to know how many times users have to wait in line to use terminals in the reference room, one obviously cannot rely solely on the observations of a single librarian who only staffs the reference desk fifteen hours per week, between 8 . and 5 ., Monday through Friday. Direct observation can be useful, only its own or to supplement other methods, when appropriate sampling methods are employed and input is received from more than one observer. ? 使用直接觀察法必須結(jié)合其他的抽樣技術(shù)以得到可靠性的資料，這樣方能提供管理決策使用。 ? In parison with questionnaires and transaction log analysis, interviews can provide a more intimate view of the user’s perspective on the system under examination. ? 相較於問卷調(diào)查及線上交易記錄分析，訪談法可以提供使用者對系統(tǒng)更詳細(xì)更深入的觀點(diǎn)。這種情況
