<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Google Street View is a technology implemented in several Google services/applications (e.g. Google Maps, Google Earth) which provides the user, interested in viewing a particular location on the map, with panoramic images (represented in equi-rectangular projection) at street level. Generally, consecutive panoramas are acquired with an average distance of 5&amp;ndash;10<span class="thinspace"></span>m and can be compared to a traditional photogrammetric strip and, thus, processed to reconstruct portion of city at nearly zero cost

Abstract:

Drawing on the organizational theories of noted business thinker and management consultant Peter Drucker, the editors of this volume have gathered together case studies and interviews that illustrate his concept of planned abandonment at work in libraries. Defined as the systematic evaluation of products and services, planned abandonment in libraries means examining reference, instruction, and collection development and abandoning those services that are no longer relevant in the present context. The editors argue that this strategy is the hallmark of innovative organizations and the key to li

Abstract:

The paper wants to illustrate that one of main scopes in which the archival community has to answer to challenges given to the long-term digital preservation is the need of a critical revision of the traditional archival paradigm. The thesis has proved by a case study: that’s represented by the public system of long-term digital preservation managed by “Polo archivistico regionale dell’Emilia-Romagna” (ParER). This case study is analysed with reference to the functions in which the preservation activity has articulated and the relationships that the custodian has with the creators that use its

However, systematic collecting did not begin until the 1950s. Collections of animal sound recordings serve many uses in education, entertainment, science and nature conservation. In recent years, technological developments have transformed the ways in which sounds can be sampled, stored and accessed.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the reference and public service models used at academic libraries in the California State University system. Design/methodology/approach This exploratory study used a qualitative mixed methods design with an online survey and follow-up interviews with public services librarians. Findings The majority of the libraries in this study continue to use a traditional reference model with a physical desk staffed by librarians. Some libraries have moved to tiered or on-call reference using students and staff to triage patron questions. The majority of libraries’

Abstract. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were proposed in 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations in 2015, in which SDG 3 is about ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all ages. The assessment on SDG 3 helps to measure or monitor the level of sustainable and healthy development of nation or sub-nation regions. However, the SDG 3 is mainly aimed at the global or national levels, and lack of quantitative assessment and analysis. Therefore, this paper, taking Deqing County of Zhejiang Province in China as an example, presents a pilot study which m

The Chandos’ book series is designed to help the overworked librarian with practical advice using extensive case studies. The book begins with defining “informationist” and outlining the transformation from a traditional reference librarian to an informationist. The theme of the book deals with filling “information” gaps and each chapter focuses on different types of services that can help fill information gaps at a variety of health institutions.

Current methods to develop standard Architecture, Engineering, Construction (AEC) product models focus on the definition of product model semantics without concurrent and formal consideration of the engineering analyses that such models must support, or formal consideration of the requirements for sharing information between applications. We present two case studies that demonstrate a service to extract data from product models and provide inputs to component analysis applications. The service was validated in a proof-of-concept application called the Internet Broker for Engineering Services (

Interpreters are often anonymously and flimsily archived, given their subsidiary role in diplomatic exchanges. These fragmentary records pose problems for in-depth studies on ancient interpreters. Japanese monk Ennin’s (794-864) diary documenting his decade-long (838-847) China sojourn, however, provides a delightful contrast to this evidence limitation. Known for its authentic, detailed, and objective descriptions, it contains thirty-eight references to four Sillan (ancient Korean) interpreters, of whom one was an interpreting clerk affiliated with a prefecture in eastern coastal China.
