    With the increasing level of informatization and digitization, digital technology and services have played an increasingly important role in various fields of society. The academic community has proposed the concept of "digital capital" and formed a theoretical system. In order to help the academic community gain a deeper understanding of digital capital theory and provide reference for subsequent empirical research, this paper systematically and deeply explores the digital capital theory from four aspects, namely, origin and development, connotation and extension, measurement and quantification, application and prospect, on the basis of combing and summarizing domestic and foreign literature related to digital capital. The study found that digital capital, proposed by Ragnedda et al. on the basis of Bourdieu's capital view, is a generalization of digital resources possessed by individuals with certain social utility, including digital capabilities and digital technologies, which can be quantified from different dimensions. It is an important factor affecting users' adoption of information systems and services, as well as engaging in certain information behaviors. It provides a theoretical framework for understanding digital divide and social inequality.

    This study aims to clarify how users' digital capital and social capital influence collaborative value creation behaviors in virtual tourism communities. Through a survey, data on users' digital capital, social capital, and collaborative value creation behaviors were collected, and the data were analyzed using a structural equation modeling approach. The results indicate: User digital access is not directly related to their collaborative value creation behaviors; however, digital literacy has a significant positive impact. The accumulation of user digital capital contributes to the continuous growth of their social capital, with digital access and digital literacy having a significant positive impact on structural, relational, and cognitive social capital. User structural and cognitive social capital positively influence their collaborative value creation behaviors, while relational social capital has a negative impact. This research provides theoretical support and practical insights for enhancing collaborative value creation among users in virtual tourism communities.

    At present, knowledge Q&A communities are flourishing and developing. However, they are also grappling with issues such as user attrition, sluggish knowledge growth, and challenges in ensuring the quality of knowledge shared, which may lead to poor knowledge exchange in the community. Understanding the influence mechanism of knowledge exchange effect can help individuals make full use of knowledge Q&A communities to realize high-quality knowledge exchange, and at the same time provide a path for sustainable development of knowledge Q&A communities. To this end，based on the perspective of digital capital theory, this paper constructs a theoretical model of configuration analysis, and discusses the combined effects of digital capital, social capital, cultural capital and economic capital by QCA. The results show that there is causal complexity between the effect of knowledge exchange and its antecedents: the combination of social capital and cultural capital is the core condition to enhance perceived contribution, but digital capital can make up for the absent of one of them; as far as perceived learning is concerned, digital capital, social capital and economic capital are the core conditions.

    In the context of promoting the construction of philosophical and social science discourse system and renaming the discipline of LIS, further clarification of the impact of the discipline's renaming on its discourse system can help promote the development of the discipline and adapt to the changes of the times. The article firstly adopts the method of literature research to sort out the current development of the discourse system of the discipline of information resources management, deconstructs the discourse of the discipline and explains the change process of the core concepts and the context of the discipline, and then takes the journal articles in the two major databases of " Chinese core journal criterion of PKU" and "CSSCI" during the period of 11 years from 2012-2022 to analyze the impact of the change on the discourse system of the discipline. In addition, we use the journal articles of " Peking University Core" and "CSSCI" databases during the 11 years from 2012 to 2022 as the corpus to explore the status and development of academic discourse in the discipline of library intelligence and archive management in the recent decade by constructing the semantic network and other methods, and then we explore the basic structure and construction path of the discourse system of the discipline of information resources management.

    Reading is an important means for human beings to acquire knowledge and culture and continue civilization. With the rapid development of technology，material and thought，the reading subject，reading carrier and reading media have also changed，which has triggered the paradigm evolution of reading methods. In the era of traditional paper reading，we advocate“close reading”word by word，supplemented by the “extensive reading” method of overview，but in the era of screen reading，with the rapid development of computing technology，the“distant reading” method of big data reading has unconsciously affected the reading life of the public. This article intends to sort out and discuss the relationship and connotation of close reading，extensive reading and distant reading，trying to reveal the internal logic of the generation and evolution of reading paradigm，and how to rationally respond to the era change of reading methods in the context of digital humanities.

    The introduction of a theoretical analytical framework for co-production in rural public cultural governance corresponds to the development of theory and practice in China's rural public cultural governance. It aims to promote the transition of rural areas from traditional cultural management to the construction of a modern public cultural service system, thereby realizing the inevitable requirement of high-quality development of rural public cultural services and rural cultural revitalization. From the perspective of co-production, this article not only explores the concept of rural public cultural governance in an exploratory manner but also emphasizes the core significance of co-production within it. At the same time, the above-mentioned concept is further integrated into the social-ecological system framework. This includes the shift of rural public cultural governance, resource systems, resource units, governance systems, actors, and action scenarios. This establishes the connection between cultural governance theory and co-production theory, providing a universal theoretical analysis framework for co-production in rural public cultural governance.However, as a developing proposition, it still needs to be further enriched and expanded in the practice of public cultural governance in Chinese rural areas.

    With the integration and application of generative artificial intelligence and big data resources, the characteristics of the digital intelligence of the available subjects are gradually highlighted, which broadens the boundary of the user's cognition while reinforcing the generative ability of AI, and provides a new pivot point for the continuation of available ideas. Firstly, this paper takes the theoretical construction of digital intelligence availability in the context of generative AI as an entry point, and analyses the logical connection between digital intelligence and cognition under the condition of availability from the attribute of "empowerment" and the mechanism of "relationship". Secondly, we draw on the developmental mechanism of digital intelligence in the context of availability of ideas, and deconstruct the availability of cognitive bandwidth by combining the four theoretical models. Finally, we explore the practical process of quantitative advantage of digital intelligence supply, endogenous potential of technology availability, and autonomous development of field around the triple upgrading mechanism of "resource-capability-space" of cognitive bandwidth in generative environment, in order to understand in depth "We will explore the quantitative advantage of digital intelligence supply, the endogenous potential of technology availability, and the practical process of autonomous development of the field, in order to deeply understand the key proposition of "How Digital Intelligence Enables Cognition".
