Today, the majority of resources are available in digital forms to acquire information. We have to search through collections of documents. In this paper text indexing which can improve searching is described. Next, indexing tool, the Agrotagger, which is useful for documents in the field of agriculture, is presented. Two available versions of the Agrotagger are tested and discussed. The Agrotagger is useful only for the English language despite the fact that it uses multilingual thesaurus Agrovoc. Because of the Agrotagger is not useful for texts in Polish, it is important to create similar tool appropriate for the Polish language. The problems connected with extensive inflection in languages such as Polish language in the process of indexing were discussed. In the final part of the paper, it is presented design and implementation of a system, based on the Polish language dictionary and the Agrovoc. Additionally some tests of implemented system are discussed.

Starting from the basic premises of Schank's (1998) notion of indexing in story telling and the representational approach of language (Saeed 1996, 2003), this paper investigates whether fairy tales create initial indexes for children, that may (not) be re-indexed later in adult life, by reshaping their pre-existing experiences. More specifically, it focuses on the way fairy tales present several concepts already familiar to children, and whether this representation matches children’s pre-existing experiences. The data collected comes from several of Grimm Brothers' fairy tales and consists of a corpus of 62839 word tokens. The fairy tales included were thematically related to general areas of everyday experience: femininity, blackness, whiteness, day, night, being young, ageing. The following semantically contradictory lexical pairs (listed with their text frequency) were examined in the expanded concordance, in relation to their collocations and semantic associations: ( 143) old - (58) young, (134) woman - (71) maiden, (116) day - (40) night, (63) white - (83) black. These were then compared with an adults’ and a children’s dictionary to check whether the collocations, semantic associations of the selected words as portrayed in the data, matched the societally accepted meanings found in dictionaries. The comparison indicated that, although the connotative meanings were included in the majority of denotative meanings that make up words' definitions in the adult dictionary examined, only five of them matched the connotative meanings of the words examined in the data. On the other hand, the way the above concepts/words were presented in the children’s dictionary, was very simple, probably reflecting children’s experiences. It seems, thus, that the concepts - at least some of them - presented in the fairy tales examined, do not “officially” relate to children's but to adults' experiences, functioning as an index that re-shapes children’s pre-existing concepts.

A catalogue description of an object is the basic way of gathering information about its contents and form. The detailed nature of a description exerts an essential impact upon the possibility of identifying objects. In an era of digitisation there exist assorted functionalities assisting catalogue description systems, e.g. optical character recognition (OCR) for material containing a text. Consequently, the contents of objects accessible on the global web can be indexed by popular search engines. Graphic collections encounter greater difficulties as regards this type of functionality in digital publications. Etchings, photographs, and historical maps, especially those with a view or a panorama, contain a large number of elements. There emerges the problem of indexing a selected and enlarged fragment of an object, which could be the topic of a search or study conducted by users within a differed context, e.g. the appearance of buildings. A certain proposal for solving this problem is the DigiTag function (http://www.digitag.pl) based on Zoomify HTML5 publications. It makes it possible to easily generate (a double click) a unique URL address referring to a chosen fragment of the digital image. Such a link can be placed and described in one’s notes and databases or shared on social networking services. Functionality is the effect of the work performed by the authors of the Digitalizacja.pl. service based on modified Java Script libraries of the Zoomify system and the jQuery library, and making it possible to transmit the parameters (coordinates and zoom level) of a given image on the URL address. An example of an address: http://www.bibliotekacyfrowa.pl/Content/29259/2449-IV.B.htm?z=100&x=5208 &y=4337&p=2449-IV.B_01; a detailed description of the parameters and a viewer to download are available on: http://www.digitag.pl

Kolekcje starych map są cennym źródłem informacji poszukiwanych przez specjalistów z różnych dziedzin, a także amatorów. Od tego, jak została opisana kolekcja, zależy jakie informacje są dostępne. Pojawienie się możliwości pozyskiwania informacji poprzez analizę obrazu mapy, otworzyłoby nowe perspektywy w zakresie eksplorowania zapisanych tam treści. Na razie musimy jednak poprzestać na narzędziach informatycznych ułatwiających zestawianie i odpowiednie prezentowanie tradycyjnie zapisanych informacji. Służyć temu może dobrze skonstruowany interfejs pozwalający na poruszanie się po zapisanych w bazie danych informacjach. Interfejs jest swego rodzaju filtrem znaczeń, medium gdzie spotkają się różne wymiary informacji: obiektywne danych identyfikujące obiekt, kontekstowe informacje źródłowe i cyfrowy wizerunek obiektu. Każda mapa jest „świadkiem” pewnego momentu procesu historycznego, a zebranie i powiązanie takich świadectw pozwala zilustrować przebieg tego procesu. Bardziej istotne od współrzędnych geograficznych, są inne treści zapisane na starych mapach jak np. wykazy miejscowości, topografia terenu, zarysy granic, czy dekoracje prezentujące kostiumy z różnych epok i regionów, portrety panujących, a nawet widoki znanych miejscowości. Odrębnym źródłem są też zapisy adresów wydawniczych, które dostarczają danych o organizacji i funkcjonowaniu ówczesnej produkcji graficznej i kartograficznej. Dlatego tak ważna jest możliwość wskazywania zmian w treści geograficznej i interpretacja dekoracyjnych elementów mapy. Przydatnym narzędziem do tego może być DigiTag – funkcja generowania linków URL do wybranych miejsc obrazu, opisana w komunikacie Marcina Szali
