A sustainable development of information and knowledge society is a condition either of open access to such a resources, or protection of “naturalness” of human information environment. Effects of the hitherto activities for sustainable development of the modern society are insufficient. We cannot discuss a sustainable development if many people can neither answer their fundamental information needs, nor use information effectively because of its redundancy. It seems however, that there are potential means to reach the goal, offered by information ecology, aiming in homeostatic balance in an “antropoinfosphere”.

On today's labour market, recruitment tendencies show a somewhat decreased interest in workforce with specialised knowledge, while there seems to be a strong need for people who are ready to acquire new knowledge, skills and competencies. In the information age, digital and information literacy have become essential competencies. The basics of information literacy can be acquired by distance learning or at special courses organised by libraries. During the timeframe of the current research, part-time students of the Szombathely Teachers' Training College acquired the basics of research methodology via a distance learning course of 12 hours. The knowledge acquired at the course was then transformed into competencies doing practical exercises at the college library. The experiences of this project as well as outcomes of other user education courses at public libraries were examined by tests and questionnaires. The findings showed that the applied method successfully contributed to the development of the information literacy competencies of the participants. However, it was also shown that even when choosing the downloadable electronic format, participants printed it out prior to learning.

The paper aims to provide a theoretical framework for the sociological study of Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC). Instead of investigating 'Internet use' in terms of the self-fulfilling prophecy of the information-society or the applied discourse of knowledge management, this approach is focused on the real communities that communicate in virtual space. Following Barry Wellman's approach, the paper conceptualizes on-line communication as being integral to the interaction of real social groups, rather than being distinct, virtual universe. The first section aims to provide an overview of the changing concept of community itself; the second section describes the technical specifics that make the Internet an ideal community communication/media platform as well as the forms and distinctive characteristics of on-line communication; the last section traces the effects of CMC on the 'real' life of traditional local communities.

It has become apparent recently that building up the information society, which is one of the EU's objectives, calls for active governmental support. Almost all countries have now adopted programmes and plans of action to support or accelerate the transition. Decision-makers devising such a strategy have to take into account the complexity of the economic and social environment and the multiplicity of possible effects. These factors make it significantly more difficult to predict the effects of the various measures taken. The purpose of this research is to design a model that can provide a firmer basis for political decision-making. Applying the model will make it possible to predict the results of measures taken and thereby allow strategic alternatives to be compared with each other.

INTERNET AS A SOURCE OF PRO-SOCIAL ATTITUDES

The article aims at verification of the following thesis: the Internet as a platform of new interpersonal relationships promotes pro-social attitudes. They find their expression in various initiatives undertaken selflessly by individuals in order to actualise the common good (e.g. Linux, Wikipedia, support groups, knowledge-exchange portals, etc). Authoress' own research has been used for exemplification purposes. It has been assumed that human inclination to reciprocity constitutes, among others, a source of pro-social attitudes. This inclination can be more or less efficiently actualized, depending on the structure of human relations. The significance of reciprocity increases when the role of institutionalism, formalism and centralisation decreases. Nowadays, the patterns of social relations are subject to profound transformations primarily as a result of the development of the Internet. New social relations are more reciprocal in character. The Internet creates new communication space in which social or even pro-social nature of people can be fruitfully actualised. .

This text presents the concept of the romantic author in a broader context. Firstly, it points out its roots connected with antics (Bennett, 2005), then it describes its pre-concept, which is rooted during the rise of the typography (Ong, 2005), and finally it directly concentrates on the era where this concept is truly formed (Abrams, 1958). Based on these opening statements, the author of this text defines the concept of the romantic author in the sense of an individual sovereign creator in the context of western traditional authorship he classifies the subject of his interest in three key categories: firstly, he defines the concept of the romantic author in terms of its birth and its non-global character; secondly, he is oriented on the metaphor of the death of the author (Barthes, 1984), which Carpentier (2011) considers as a starting point for the weakening of the sovereign authorial position in order to present fantasies, which reflect this shift; and thirdly, he is concentrated on the term produseage (Bruns, 2008), where the author eventually (not just metaphorically) disappears, and points out the necessity of the produsage liberation from its techno-optimism. The author points out several paradoxes which emerge from the findings mentioned in the article. In reality, the romantic author is overcome in the context of contemporary information society, but formally, we are still able to face his nowadays version via the gallery visits or (simply) by the efforts to keep him alive in the world where he has already disappeared. According to the author of this article, the only way to fully accept this disappearance is to accept the author/viewer convergence by the produsage, which has to be liberated from its exaggerated utopian expectations.

The paper studies the relationships and the dependencies among the several indices, designed by the international organizations, which are used for the assessment of the economic, social and technological (mostly information society related) development. Examination and analysis of a correlation between these indices can reveal the interesting dependencies. The indices assessing the level of a country's competitiveness, corruption, e-participation, e-readiness, etc. are studied and the interdependencies are also investigated. The correlation coefficients between the individual indices are calculated and the identified dependencies discussed.

The aim of the article is to present the concept and role of teleworking. It discusses opportunities to use information technology to activate individuals who face the threat of professional exclusion, the disabled, those on leave from work to raise children, or for other reasons connected with the household. It also shows teleworking as a new property of modern organisations, one that has arisen thanks to the dynamic growth of information-communications technology. The article looks at the opportunities and the threats telework brings about. It presents both national and international experience and the ever widening virtualisation of economic activity which would clearly indicate that teleworking will become an essential complement to traditional forms of work organisation.

An access to information is one of the preconditions for the functioning of a country of law and new democracy. The analysis described in the article focuses on the level of Bialystok's citizens interest in the contact with their representatives through the Internet. The topic brought by the author is new in case of Poland, since there is no reliable research on this issue neither concerning Bialystok nor any other Polish region. The author's pilot study seems to be indispensable introduction before basic research.

Although social capital is usually analysed in sociological terms, these days it is more and more often believed to have a significant bearing on national incomes and living standards of societies. The present paper describes the importance of social capital for the creation of information society, based on information technology development. Relationships established among individuals are a characteristic trait of the development of information society. As the process of globalisation advances, social capital is increasingly frequently interpreted in the way that emphasises the attributes of these relationships. Theoretical findings have been evaluated empirically in studies that describe business networks in international food-business enterprises in Wielkopolska.

The performance of Russia in the information society related field is considered through analyzing the position of Russia in information & communication technologies (ICT), computing devices exports, and the main trend in the national science. While the activity in the ICT field has been expanding since the beginning of 2000s, the main trend of the Russian science can be described as archaic and progressively degrading. The archaic nature of the Russian science refers to its institutional dimension (organization and financing); it scientific socium (scientific entities, their social relations, the pattern of social organization); the content of science (cognitive and disciplinary structure). Reforms of the Russian science undertaken twice (in times of B.Yeltsin and V.Putin) have failed, resulting in the mass-scale reduction of the Russian science in parallel with preservation of its old organization model. The massive reduction of the Russian science failed to change its institutional pattern, and the science remained to be alien to the competitive environment, innovation and the global information society requirements. The quality of the Russian competitive environment has also been bad due to bureaucratic abuse, monopolies, corruption, prevalence of mineral exports etc. Scientific foundations created in early 90s attempted to change 'feudal' relations within the science, but their legal competencies were too limited. Therefore, modernization of the national science system is still a vitally important objective for Russia.
