    Public library credit service is a new way of service carried out in the field of public library in China within these recent years. Library resources and services could be used by users through their social credit index directly exempt from their library cards and deposit. Although library credit services are different from traditional forms of service, it is not creation, only a new way of service and a transcendence of traditional service. The establishment of the user credit system or the combination with the social credit institutions is the basis for the development of credit services in the library. Library credit service is one of the important means to improve the effectiveness of the library services, and integrated innovation and social participation are the guarantees of the realization of the library credit service. The alliance and standardization are the future directions of the library credit service.

    In the era of big data, scientific research and practice have made sharp changes in several areas and links. Scientific big data has become the new leadership of innovation and application of science and technology, as well as the "tipping point" of a new round of technological revolution. Based on the scientific frontier of data science and LIS (Library and information science), this paper puts forward a special scientific big data paradigm by integrating "technical rationality" and "humanistic value". This paper states that the conceptual framework of scientific big data should have both knowledge dimension and activity dimension. Meanwhile, the iterative optimization features of scientific big data will drive the expansion of the paradigm community and the formation of ecosystem. As it should be, the enhancement of the value chain of scientific big data needs to be comprehensively promoted through the optimization of resources, patterns and contents. Under the new technology environment, the scientific big data has broad application prospect, its remodeling and value realization are significant to the construction of modern big science research theory and practice system.

    The rise of scientific big data has expanded the research horizon of the humanities and social sciences. By bringing into the social computing paradigm, the application and development area of the humanities and social science research could be extensively expanded in supporting the major issues of economic and social development. By introducing the intersection of scientific big data and social computing, this paper probes into the problem of the data ecosphere of intelligence service. Then, the paper discusses the change and innovation of intelligence service in the new environment from three aspects: service mode changing, application space expansion and “revenue-driving” capability improvement. The paper holds that the research object of library and information science can expand from scientific big data to social big data, and the related research should try to provide new type of intelligence service based on the idea of “mass innovation and big data project”.

    After decades of fast development, China has listed at the top position in the world in terms of the amount of domestic patents. However, systematic research based on empirical data still lacks in the world-wide progress and impact of international patents from China. Based on 4 million patents and their citation network from the USPTO database, this study intends to unveil the international development and communication of USPTO patents from China, thus providing policy implications for China's deep involvement in world-wide technology activities. We find that, on the one hand, Chinese patents maintain frequent communications with certain areas in the world, exhibit prominent characteristics in certain technology fields, and keep a good momentum. On the other hand, however, China still has to catch up with other developed areas regarding its total number and impact of USPTO patents.

    It is an indispensable job to objectively evaluate academic institutions in daily scientific administration and webometrics-based evaluation technique has been increasingly becoming an effective way to fulfill this task besides traditional bibliometric indicators. In order to investigate the impact of different analytical strategies on the web influence of institutions, 342 universities in Mainland China were selected to compose the sample set to compare the reliability of different evaluating indicators on the web influence of institutions generated from different strategies of web data collection. Finally, the statistics shows that the numbers of educational domain names (RD_EDU) that linking to university websites, as well as the numbers of inlink on department level (Linknet) that university websites receive are significantly correlated (the average coefficient is nearly 0.8) with several transitional university ranking lists. Moreover, the correlation strengths are higher than that between prevailing web-based ranking lists (Webometrics Ranking of World Universities and uniRank) and traditional ones (ARWU, CARK and CUAA).

Network questionnaire survey, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to cluster seven participation motivations. The result showed that for users of network micro-class community, conformity motivation and emotional motivation are not main motivations; social motivation and information motivation are relatively important motivations. Interest, learning and sharing motivations are most important participation motivations of network micro-class community. Therefore, it is concluded that the elements of the network micro-class community are the subject, output and interaction.

    In recent years, with the emerging of all kinds of IT and internet products/services, the phenomenon that people switch among various IT products/services has become more and more popular. In the study of user information behavior, the exploration of user switch behavior is drawing more attention from the academia and industry. Firstly, based on the relevant literature on user switch in information management field, the study defines the user switch behavior, and summarizes the characteristics of switch behavior as complexity, selectivity, slowness and dynamic. Then, the study divides user switch behavior into three categories, namely users' switch among products/services under the different media, users' switch among homogeneous products/services as well as the switch in heterogeneous products/service sunder the same media, and research context has been classified into four categories, namely entertainment, social, commercial and tool-based. Subsequently, the study addresses the theoretical foundations on switch behavior research in information management field. Then, the influencing factors of users' switch behavior are summarized from five aspects, namely, the related factors of the incumbent IT products/services, the related factors of the alternative IT products/services, mooring factors, social factors and demographics. At last, the study puts forward some future research directions of user switch behavior.
