“…The previous systematic literature review on GIS use in LIS identified two main categories of use of GIS in LIS research (Bishop and Mandel, 2010): analyzing service area populations (data from outside libraries) and facilities management (data from inside libraries). Aguilar-Moreno and Grannell-Canut (2013) reviewed the literature on uses of GIS in libraries. They categorized the work into three groups: visualizing information to help libraries in making decisions, search interfaces and incorporating GIS data as a library resource.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore library research that uses geographic information systems (GIS) as a tool to evaluate library services and resources to ascertain current trends and establish future directions for this growing research area.Design/methodology/approachThe study searched full text for geographic information systems in two databases: Library and Information Science Source (LISS) and Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts (LISTA), replicating the method used in a prior literature review. The titles and abstracts of the search results were analyzed to gather only the research that used GIS as a tool to measure and analyze library services.FindingsThis study found growth in the last decade for library research using GIS. There remain two ways the tool is primarily used: to analyze service areas and to manage facilities and collections.Practical implicationsThe findings are relevant for library and information science researchers and practitioners because they summarize a specific area of research that has grown and changed and that still has potential to be used more widely. Using GIS in practice and research could benefit all library users and nonusers because spatial analysis facilitates more precise and informed delivery of services and resources.Originality/valueThe paper provides future directions for use of GIS in library research and attempts to define subdivisions within this research area to clarify the area for researchers and practitioners.

Revista Española de Documentación Científica, 38 (2) Resumen: Este trabajo presenta los resultados de una encuesta sobre la gestión de datos geográficos digitales en bibliotecas universitarias españolas. El objetivo de la investigación es averiguar en qué estado se encuentran las bibliotecas universitarias españolas en relación con la gestión de datos geográficos y cuáles pueden ser los factores limitantes para su desarrollo. Los resultados reflejan la percepción de las bibliotecas universitarias sobre cuál podría ser su rol dentro de la gestión de datos geográficos en el entorno universitario.Palabras clave: Encuesta; bibliotecas universitarias; datos geográficos; servicios geográficos en bibliotecas. Geographic data management in Spanish university libraries: state of the artAbstract: This paper presents the results of a survey on the management of digital geographic data in Spanish academic libraries. The objective of the research is to discover the state of Spanish university libraries in relation to the management of geographic data, as well as factors that might hinder it. The results reflect the perception of university libraries on their role in managing geographic data in the academic environment.
