Full textAbstract:
At the International Conference on Retrospective Cataloguing in Europe: 15th to 19th Century Printed Materials, held in Munich in 1990, it became obvious that the conversion of catalogues of research collections to machine-readable form has a high priority in most European countries. However, the limited specialist use of automated short-title catalogues, the creation of which incurs considerable costs, should be weighed more carefully against the massive unsatisfied demand for post-1970 and current materials. The advantages that the automated catalogue brings to the user are not in question, but a catalogue in many volumes, like the guard-book catalogue in Cambridge University Library, can provide a range of access points that is unlikely ever to be equalled – a view evidently supported by some senior users. In smaller libraries retrospective conversion is more desirable and more easily achievable. But it is important for all librarians to understand why they are converting their catalogues, to place conversion in the order of priorities and to question if it is what the majority of users want.

For modern management and full resource sharing among libraries and scientific departments both in Chinese and worldwide observatories, we established the computer system of library management and information retrieval during the period 1984-1987.The system is composed of ten component sub-systems: 1.Book ordering system. This system can produce orders for books and periodicals, balance accounts, produce statistics as well as claims for outstanding book orders.2.Book cataloguing system. This system can catalogue books under certain rules while appending new records of books to the databases. It can also produce catalogue cards and produce written reports about the new books.3.Book retrieval system has the ability to search for a specific book in several ways.4.Book lending or circulation system. This system is a complete circulation system; including book lending, renewals, waiting lists, and recall of borrowed books.5.Periodical management system. This system is in charge of processing of periodicals and magazines in the library, including cataloguing, management, and lending.6.Scientific information retrieval system. One can retrieve scientific information by keywords or in many other ways.7.Internal material booking system. It can make orders of internal materials, claims for materials outstanding and make exchanges with other observatories and institutions both in or outside the country.8.Internal material management system. It can do the work that is analogous to that done with books and periodicals.9.Information relationship system. It handles exchanges of information between institutions.

India's National Library traces its origins to the Calcutta Public Library, which was opened in 1836 and amalgamated with the Imperial Library in 1903. It receives all material published in India. Its four main groups of activity are Collection Building and Collection Organization, Readers' Service, Conservation of Library Materials, and Administration. These activities are carried out by numerous divisions, of which the subject and language divisions function like individual small libraries, responsible for acquisition, processing and specialized reference services. Some stock is available for loan. There is a small Children's Library. The Conservation Wing has Preservation, Laboratory and Reprography Divisions. An extensive automation programme has started fairly recently; first applications will be for acquisitions and cataloguing. Future projects include the production of a National Union Catalogue, the collection of better statistics of Indian book production, and the acquisition of microforms to fill important lacunae in the collection. Plans for a new six-storey building have been approved.

Full textAbstract:
This paper discusses a cross-disciplinary, international collaboration aimed at researching a series of 15th century choir books at the abbey of San Giorgio Maggiore on the homonymous island in Venice. Produced for the abbey itself, the books have never left the island during their 500-year history, thereby allowing a unique opportunity to analyse historic artefacts, which have undergone little modification over time. Prompted by ongoing cataloguing work on the manuscripts, a week-long analytical campaign using a combination of non-invasive analytical methods used in portable configuration allowed the comprehensive characterisation of ten volumes. The manuscripts’ palette and painting techniques were analysed using near-infrared imaging, reflectance spectroscopy in the UV-vis-NIR range, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence mapping and digital microscopy. The paper will discuss the challenges linked to the fragility and the large dimensions of the volumes as well as the most interesting results of the investigation. These include the detection of unusual painting materials such as bismuth ink, as well as the discovery of a less homogeneous palette than originally expected, which prompted a partial revision of the attribution of the decoration in one of the volumes to a single artist.

Full textAbstract:
Back in 1993, as senior librarian at the Vernadsky Library in Kiev, Ukraine, in charge of cataloguing a newly uncovered Judaica collection, I came across an enigmatic manuscript entitled Sefer ha-ḥeshek. It did not match the bulk of the Judaica holdings. Nor did it fit in Abraham Harkavy's collection of medieval manuscripts. It was too Ashkenazic for Abraham Firkovich's Karaite papers, and too early for most of S. Ansky's nineteenth-century folkloric materials. The manuscript had a wooden cover, separate from the text, with a copper monogram Sefer ha-ḥeshek in Hebrew (hereafter—SH). SH's title appears randomly as a running head; the author occasionally refers to the title of the manuscript. Primarily because of its size—411 folios, 23 of them blank, some 760 filled pages altogether—and due to its magical contents, I discarded any attempts to identify the manuscript as a version of the well-known Sefer ha-ḥeshek, a twenty-or-so-page kabbalistic treatise on the names of the archangel Metatron attributed to Isaac Luria. Also, since the manuscript is not a commentary on the book of Isaiah or Proverbs, it could neither be Solomon Duran's nor Solomon ha-Levi's Ḥ eshek shelomoh.

Abstract
Objective – To investigate the degree to which books catalogued using the same bibliographic record differ and to consider the implications of these differences for cooperative monographic print retention programs.
Design – Book condition survey.
Setting – Academic library consortium in the United States of America.
Subjects – 47 monographic titles, publication years 1851-1922, held by all consortium members and catalogued using the same respective OCLC record number. 625 out of a possible 705 circulating copies of these titles were available for item-level analysis via interlibrary loan.
Methods – Book condition surveys were completed for all items and the resulting sets of assessment data points were analyzed to reveal trends.
Main Results – 3.4% of items analyzed exhibited cataloguing errors (i.e., were catalogued using the wrong OCLC records), 56.8% retained their original bindings, 17.8% were marked to show previous ownership, 95.7% were complete with no missing content, 9.8% had no damage, and 18.9% had received identifiable preservation action.
Conclusion – Books catalogued using the same OCLC record demonstrated many differences when compared at the item level. These differences are important in light of shared print retention programs and highlight a need for inquiry into the number of copies that should be retained to minimize the loss of uniqueness in print materials.

Full textAbstract:
When we think of paper-folding, we usually think first of the name that is usually associated with it: origami. But in the field of architecture, origami is more than just imagining an animal or flower which is what this word usually brings to mind. In architecture, we extend the meaning to take in the real essence of the word – that of great structural and constructional loads. The basic unit of origami – the fold – allows us to start manipulating space and even to create space itself. Paper-folding, with its spatial modelling potential, is to three-dimensionality what drawing is to two-dimensionality. It is after all an ancient Japanese art which encapsulates the advantages of intuitive thinking and fast modelling, once the basic elements of folding are known. Heino Engel (2001) in his book “Structural Systems”, describes intensive studies on types of structures which derive from this systematization. And the architect Ming Tang often uses structures in his projects which clearly originate in the concept of origami, and he correlates these structures with sustainable materials. The architect Michael Hansmeyer manages to incorporate all the beauty of the action of folding with the help of a computer, where the final result is a shape that approaches a real application at an architectural level. Over time, there have been numerous people who have found a relationship between the harmony and proportions of paper-folding and their own studies and projects. What is missing is a single point where clear concepts on the possibilities of folding and the results of those who have experimented with it can be brought together. This cataloguing, which is being carried out in this Master’s dissertation, is intended to be a contribution to the design method in architecture, through which the architect may achieve spatial dexterity over a piece of paper.

The first and foremost of them is the very concept of a rare publication, an issue that has been causing theoretical disputes for more than a decade. Another factor that influences the formation of special collections is the historical development of a specific library, shaped by the methods of obtaining documents. The structure of a library – the formation of its subdivisions – is also of importance. In addition to the above objective factors, there are also subjective aspects of work organization, such as the intellect and experience of the staff.Upon the merging of the sectors of Old and Rare Books, of Art and of Cartography, the Department of Old, Rare and Cartography Publications was founded in 1957. The character of the merged sectors was the main factor that determined the nature of the acquired documents, which has remained almost unchanged until today. In 1991, this department was divided into two: the departments of Old Periodicals and Rare Publications.The aim of this article is to characterize the acquisition strategy and the specifics of document selection in the Rare Book Department. Another objective is to overview the traditions of the formation of the department holdings and to outline the perspectives of a more effective keeping and cataloguing of documents. The main source is the Rules and Instructions for the work of the Rare Book Department.At present, the department operates on the basis of the Acquisition Instruction confirmed in 1996. The main principles of rare book acquisition are the following: age (pre-1801 publications), rarity (bibliographic rarities), value, uniqueness (exceptional documents whose preservation requires special conditions). The documents from the holdings of the Rare Book Department in the WLLAS electronic catalogue are labeled CIM (the abbreviation of “cimelia”, the word derived from the Greek κειμήλιον and meaning “treasure”).The Rare Book Department holds more than 200 thousand documents of various nature: books, cartography publications, art albums, engravings, photographs, small documents, microfilms. These materials are grouped into separately formed collections.Lately, the problem of the acquisition of newer documents (books, art albums, exhibition catalogues, accidental (small) documents) has become much more urgent. In our opinion, the Rare Book Department should accord more attention to printed heritage the concept of which is inseparable from a certain period in history.

Full textAbstract:
With the development of information carriers and information recording means, non-book materials have experienced considerable changes in type and number. Moreover non-book materials play an increasingly important role in information resources construction by virtue of increasing user demand for non-book materials.At present non-book materials in the library are short of effective management and unable to meet user demand, which reduces user satisfaction and damages the image of the library. The author holds the opinion that establishing networked management of non-book materials is crucial. In order to solve this problem, the author mainly expounds 5 indispensible aspects of networked management in non-book materials: classification unification and descriptive standardization; transformation of information; networked management; establishing regional joint service system; paying attention to the copyright problem.

O desenvolvimento de novos métodos e a criação de novas representações musicais podem contribuir na precisão dos classificadores para o reconhecimento das emoções, uma vez que estes estão entre os maiores desafios da área de Music Emotion Recognition (MER). Esse trabalho investiga, implementa e combina três diferentes fontes de informações (cifras, áudio e letras) para a classificação automática de emoções em músicas. A metodologia de trabalho é descrita por meio das seguintes atividades: criação da base de dados Multimodal Latin Music Mood Database (MLMMD), pré-processamento dos dados, mineração e combinação dos dados. Por meio dos procedimentos foi realizada uma análise dos diferentes resultados utilizando as diferentes fontes de informação de forma individual e combinada. Primeiramente, foi possível observar que o método combinatório multimodal early fusion foi melhor do que os demais (no fusion e late fusion).

Full textAbstract:
Non-book materials have a unique role to play in university libraries of South Africa, as they re-inforce what has been learnt and facilitate presentation of subject matter to fulfil the needs of teaching and learning of institutions. The key problem of the study was that non-book materials though very important as sources of information like books, appear to be little or not used in South African university libraries. This may be caused by unclear policy presented in formal or informal collection development policies. The general aim of the study was to find out collection development practices, policies and use of non-book materials in South
African university libraries. To this end the specific objectives were:
To find out how non-book materials in university libraries are collected
and maintained as part of teaching, learning and research. To get some understanding on the policies and patterns the university libraries follow in the development of non-book materials. To find out the manner in which non-book materials are funded and acquired. To find out the extent to which library orientation, instruction and user education cover non-book materials. The study therefore examined the collection development and usage of nonbook materials in university libraries of South Africa. All the South African university libraries except University of Zululand where the researcher works and is the AV-librarian were included in the study. The
major method of study chosen was the survey method and the questionnaire was used for data collection. The methods of analysis used were the univariate and bi-variate methods and the basic type of statistics, the descriptive statistics. Libraries surveyed showed that they favoured non-book materials, and above all they do have the most NBM that are available in all formats. The study guided the researcher in making the following recommendations: The need for improvement of the NBM information services in libraries. That clear policies, whether written or not, for selection and acquisition of NBM be reviewed in libraries in South Africa.
The role of NBM specialist is important and needs to be redressed. That the academic staff, library staff and students work together as a team and devise a program of library user education integrated with curriculum.Thesis (M.I.S.)-University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 1999.

Full textAbstract:
Dental ceramics constitute a heterogeneous group of materials with desirable optical and mechanical proprieties combined with chemical stability. They are inorganic non-metallic materials used in several applications. These materials are biocompatible to tissue, highly esthetic, with satisfying resistance to tensile and shear stress. Over the past years, several developments in new ceramic materials in dental restoration were achieved, including processing techniques and high mechanical properties. Thus, concepts on the structure and strengthening mechanisms of dental ceramic materials are also discussed. The dental practitioner requires best knowledge concerning indications, limitations, and correct use of started materials. The purpose of this book chapter is to overview advances in new ceramic materials and processes, which are used in dentistry. The properties of these materials are also discussed.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter surveys three main levels of Priestly or P-like composition in Genesis 1–11. It starts by reviewing the scope and possible date of the Toledot scroll discussed in chapter 4. The Priestly source built around this Toledot book source, preceding it with the Genesis 1 story of God’s creation of the cosmos and expanding it with a full flood narrative (rather than the likely brief mention of the flood in the Toledot book) and overview of post-flood peoples (Genesis 10*). The source then continued with new Priestly Abraham materials (e.g., Genesis 17) and multiple new Toledot of Abraham’s descendants leading up to Israel, which were then followed by a Priestly story of Moses, the Exodus, and the eventual construction of a wilderness Tabernacle in which God could dwell. At a later stage, the P and non-P materials were combined, using P as the basic superstructure for the primeval history and adding, at select points, elements that betray a particular affinity for Priestly concepts and/or ideology. In this sense, the conflation of P and non-P can be seen as a continuation of the Priestly composition process, creating a new, conflated narrative embracing non-P materials within a P framework.

Full textAbstract:
One of the challenges that architects and designers are confronted with in contemporary contexts is the need to address an ethical responsibility towards the health of the environment through understanding the energetic processes embedded in materials and their compositions. A scientific explanation of material fundamentals, including chemistry, physical structure, and embodied energy, provides the greatest insight to material property performance values and relative environmental impacts. This information aids architects in making informed decisions about building materials in the design process. This chapter addresses the book topic of reusable and sustainable building materials through the position that all matter is a form of energy, just as living systems are the transmutation of matter and energy. The seven major material groups, which include natural materials, non-technical ceramics, technical ceramics, metals, polymers, foams and elastomers, and composites, are presented with examples and applications discussed.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter moves through multiple phases in tracing the formation of Genesis 5 and 11:10–26. Because the textual history of these chapters is particularly unclear, the chapter starts by treating this issue. It argues that key indicators in Gen 11:10–26 suggest that the Septuagint and Samaritan Pentateuch represent later scribal revisions that solve problems implicit in an early chronology found in the Masoretic text for Gen 11:10–26 by lengthening the lives of most postflood primeval patriarchs. In turn, it appears that the scribes who produced the Septuagint and Masoretic text of Genesis 5 used a similar strategy of lengthening the lives of primeval patriarchs in order to solve problems implicit in an early chronology found in the Samaritan Pentateuch text for Genesis 5. These scribes appear to have been dealing with problems that emerged when an earlier, pre-Priestly “scroll of the toledot (=descendants) of Adam” (Gen 5:1a), with its chronology of long-lived primeval patriarchs, was appropriated by the author of the Priestly source as the initial basis for the primeval history section of that source. This Toledot scroll, in turn, likely took its basic genealogical information from non-P materials about Adam and Eve’s descendants (now found in Genesis 4) as well as Noah’s offspring (Gen 9:18–27 and parts of Genesis 10). Yet it rearranged those materials into a form that was partially modeled on late versions of the Sumerian King List tradition, even as the nonroyal focus of the non-P materials was preserved.

This introduction argues that ethno-nationalist groups’ ethnic identity, desire for self-determination and territorial concerns are related to a specific context, which reveals a dilemma related to the choice of whether a state pursues armed struggle or a non-military solution. It explains the data collection methods of the book which relies on a broad range of sources including interviews, archival materials, official documents and reports. It then evaluates the nature of ethno-nationalist groups and describes the rationale behind the selection of the ethno-nationalist conflicts in Northern Ireland and Turkey, and how non-violent, political resolution efforts played a role in ending violence in these two comprehensive and long-standing conflicts. It reviews the evolution of ‘conflict resolution’ theory and how this book intends to modify the existing theory. The chapter ends with an explanation of the structure of the book and the specific topics and case studies examined in each chapter of the book.

Libraries, an organized collection of books and non-book materials, are always situated in communities to ensure that the inhabitants' information needs are promptly and adequately met. However, the level of library involvement in these communities is quite low or nonexistent in other places. It is therefore necessary for libraries to begin reaching out to these communities through creative and innovative programs that will involve the participation of community members and create awareness as they impress themselves and their worth on the community.

Full textAbstract:
The introduction considers why certain archival materials come preloaded with particular discomforts. What unspoken assumptions, for example, quietly distance Whitman the poet from a seemingly insignificant sample of wallpaper with a poem drafted on the back? And what happens when it becomes apparent that such a fragment actually provides an alternative documentary perspective on a creative process that produced a book of poems while distracted by, and incorporating other, decidedly non-poetic forms of labor? Theorizing such ephemera as “archives of distraction,” the introduction figures the work of certain poets not as any discrete or discernible form of labor, but as a living sensuous activity that equivocates at the thresholds of labor’s emerging divisions and hierarchies. It goes on to demonstrate how such activity challenges some of the foundational tenets of what this book terms “vocational modernity.”

Full textAbstract:
There have been many changes that have taken place in all levels of education since the Covid-19 pandemic, including at Higher Education (HE). While the swift pivot to blended teaching has been challenging and not welcomed by all, there are some positives have come about because of it and it would be good to be able to hold on to these. The challenges include moving learning materials (written, video and audio) online, engaging with students in a constructive manner and how to do assessments that are academically rigorous and have academic integrity. It is difficult for those who are used to teaching in a face-to-face environment to suddenly switch over to developing online resources and know who do this effectively and efficiently. Interacting with students online requires a different skill set than in a face-to-face environment and educators should not be expected to acquire these skills automatically. Closed-book, invigilated exams are the norm in HE institutions and ensure a level of academic integrity that has worked well for many years. It is difficult to switch from this scenario to an open-book, non-invigilated exam. It means that questions have to be re-thought to explore the students’ understanding in an academic rigorous manner. Ideally, it would be good to be able to address these challenges as they mean a less positive experience for both educators and students. The positive aspects include a more flexible approach to teaching and learning, facilitation of different modes of learning and in some cases, more interesting and authentic assessments. A more flexible approach enables students to learn at a time and place that suits them and is in keeping with the needs of the more diverse population that makes up student body in HE today. While there is a debate around learning styles, providing learning materials in a variety of formats is beneficial for all students. While it is definitely more difficult to develop open-book assessments, it is also an opportunity to do more real-world, authentic assessments that assess students’ higher order skills. This moves assessment further along the Bloom’s taxonomy. This paper looks at the challenges and positives outcomes of the move to blended teaching and learning and how the challenges can be addressed, the positive aspects maintained and how a sustainable approach can be adopted to ensure that future changes to teaching are less challenging and more positive.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new EUROATOM project focusing on the structural integrity assessment of dissimilar metal weld. The project started in February 2012 and will last 3 years. The project is coordinated by VTT with 10 partner organizations from Europe: Technical Research Centre of Finland, Finland (VTT) - Coordinator AREVA NP, France and Germany (ANP) Commissariat à l’Énergie Atomique et aux energies alternatives, France (CEA) Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, Belgium (JRC) EdF-Energy, United Kingdom (BE) Bay Zoltán Foundation for Applied Research, Hungary (BZF) Electricité de France, France (EDF) TECNATOM, Spain (TEC) Jožef Stefan Institute, Slovenia (JSI) Studsvik Nuclear AB, Sweden (STU). Within MULTIMETAL, the main objectives are: - Develop a codification for fracture resistance testing in multi-metal specimens. - Develop harmonized procedures for dissimilar metal welds integrity assessment. The underlying aim of the project is to provide recommendations for a good practice approach for the integrity assessment (especially testing) of dissimilar metal welds as part of overall integrity analyses including leak-before-break (LBB) procedures. The project will promote the development of a common understanding for structural integrity assessment of dissimilar metal welds (DMWs) in existing and future nuclear power plants (NPPs) in EU member states. It will provide the technical basis for the development of harmonized European codification for multi-metal components, which is currently non-existing. A trainee program will be finally developed and text book as well as learning materials will be issued. The project will interact with the European Network of Excellence NULIFE and NUGENIA.
