“Brazil’s Popular Groups: a Collection of Materials Issued by socio-political, Religious, Labor and a Minority Grass-roots Organizations” (BPG) é uma coleção microfilmada que reúne grande variedade de documentos impressos relacionados a grupos populares brasileiros, publicados desde a década de 1960 até a atualidade. Reunidos a partir de meados da década de 1980 pelo escritório de representação da Biblioteca do Congresso norte-americano no Rio de Janeiro – inaugurado em 1966 –, os materiais na BPG estão divididos por períodos e organizados sob diferentes categorias. Mais de trinta bibliotecas dos Estados Unidos, além de instituições de memória e pesquisa da Europa e do Brasil – entre elas a Biblioteca Nacional – possuem microfilmes desta coleção. Interessada em investigar as condições socio-históricas que permitem a constituição de coleções que ganham dimensão pública e os lugares que ocupam tais artefatos, a pesquisa analisa a BPG a partir de sua relação com contextos politicos norte-americanos e brasileiros, atentando para distintas temporalidades e subjetividades que marcaram a sua produção, bem como para sua circulação. O objetivo é dar visibilidade à historicidade da coleção, à construção narrativa de seu colecionador e a alguns dos significados e lugares que lhe foram atribuídos ao longo de sua existência.
Brazil’s Popular Groups: a Collection of Materials Issued by socio-political, Religious, Labor and a Minority Grass-roots Organizations (BPG) is a microfilmed collection that brings together a wide variety of printed documents related to Brazilian popular groups, published since the 1960s until the present time. Gathered for the first time in the mid-1980s by the representative office of the Library of Congress in Rio de Janeiro – inaugurated in 1966 – BPG materials are divided by periods and organized under different categories. More than thirty libraries in the United States, as well as memory and research institutions in Europe and Brazil – including the National Library – have microfilms of this collection. Interested in investigating the socio-historical conditions that allow the constitution of collections that gain public dimension and the places that occupy such artifacts, the research analyzes the BPG from its relation with North American and Brazilian political contexts, paying attention to different temporalities and subjectivities that marked its production, as well as its circulation. The aim is to highlight the historicity of the collection, the dynamics of the process of narrative construction of its collector, and some of the meanings and places that have been attributed to it throughout its existence.

Full textThe Library of Congress Classification one of the most widely used knowledge organization systems in libraries worldwide for its structure and scope and for its support in the connection with the required information resources, presents differences regarding complexity, updating and compliance with respect to the development of research in Universal and Latin America, history. In this sense, this research seeks to verify such differences with respect to the Peruvian historical and bibliographic reality, for which it is estimated the degree of correspondence existing in 180 subjects (historical events and characters) based on appearance and not appearance in LCC “Peru”, section F3442 - F3447, located in F class, “History of the Americas”, peruvian subdivision, F3400 –F3700, as in six authors recognized in Peruvian bibliography (historical period 1492 - 1919) systematically selected from the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú (PUCP) library system. Two tables of degrees are proposed to estimate the correspondence, adapted from the Likert scale, and consist the measuring instrument. After counting in summations, percentages and proportions, it is concluded that the degree of correspondence between the aforementioned knowledge structures is 2,970 / 1, "low", however the set of proportions, as of degrees, is varied for both author, as for each period. The author of the closest degree of correspondence is Fisher, for his 1989 bibliography, with 1,692, "high," and the one with the greatest distance is Porras, for his 1963 work, with 3,974, "very low." In the case of the periods, the one with the closest degree of correspondence is “Emancipation and Independence of Peru (1820 - 1830)” with 2,217 / 1, “high” and the one with the greatest distance is “Viceroyalty of Peru (1548 - 1824)” with 4.042 / 1, “low”. However, more studies in Peru and Latin America are suggested for LCC in other thematic fields as well as in correlation with their state-of-the-art approach.

Full textWhat this investigation has tried to find out is how easily availabie LGBT literature is in the systems that are used by private companies and the public sector - online book shops and library catalogues available online (OPACs). This entailed a number of more practical underlying factors regarding the design of the tree structure, what kind of language is used and how easy it is to understand, whether or not there are special categories for LGBT-related literature and whether or not there are direct links between literature with LGBT content. The systems investigated were the online book shops Amazon (both the American version and the British subsidiary), The Book Depository and Adlibris along with the classification systems used by the national libraries in the countries where these book shops reside (the US, the UK and Sweden): Library of Congress Classification (LC), Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) and Klassifikationssystem för svenska bibliotek (SAB). Two of the library systems (LC and DDC) did not have a tree structure available for the customers to see and navigate through, while the third one (SAB) offered a structure with both the classification code and Swedish words explaining what the codes meant, even if the categories and subdivisions were not optimally constructed. None of them had very many links to other literature. Two of them (The Book Depository and Adlibris) did not have main categories specifically for LGBT content which both Amazon US and Amazon UK did. All the library systems could use a revision to ensure that literature, and particularly LGBT literature as that was the focal point of this investigation, is easily available. The Library of Congress and the British Library need to establish a tree structure their clients could use and all three need to make sure they have a category where LGBT literature is collected and available at the root. The online book shops on the other hand do not need to do much to improve the availability of their systems: like the library systems, Adlibris and The Book Shop need to create a category of LGBT literature in the tree structure but besides that the private companies pass with credit. The systems used by the Amazon branches proved to have the greatest availability of all the systems investigated.

Este estágio curricular integrou-se na dinâmica do Espaço Pessoa tendo sido implementada por uma equipa multidisciplinar especialmente direcionada para satisfazer as necessidades específicas dos toxicodependentes, sem-abrigo, dos trabalhadores do sexo, entre outro tipo de público-alvo. Além das problemáticas específicas relacionadas com a saúde, com a falta de retaguarda familiar, com o desemprego, com a falta de apoio social, com as condições económicas precárias em que vivem chegando ao ponto de dormirem na rua, estas pessoas debatem-se com um problema nuclear: a exclusão social. Estigmatizadas e marginalizadas no seu quotidiano tendem cada vez mais a isolarem-se da sociedade traçando trajetórias de vida desviantes e muitas vezes autodestrutivas, sobretudo ao nível emocional e comportamental como é o caso dos toxicodependentes ou dos sem-abrigo. Outros fatores como a baixa autoestima e a falta de um projecto de vida viável torna a intervenção psicológica junto destes públicos multiproblemáticos mais desafiante requerendo abordagens terapêuticas mais abrangentes, diversificadas e inovadoras.Trabalho e família são os dois domínios mais afetados pela droga devendo as múltiplas terapias adotadas promover a reinserção social pelo trabalho e o envolvimento da família (Fernandes, 2009).

Estudamos a cortiça como material construtivo, de forma a responder ás necessidades contemporâneas arquitectónicas. Partindo de uma breve análise da formação e evolução do material foi visto que é originaria do sobreiro e se regenera a cada 9 anos. Ao contrario do que possa parecer ela faz parte da cultura humana como material técnico desde sempre, essencialmente devido á sua capacidade isolante e flutuante. Desde que o Homem começa a produzir vinho ela assume um papel importante para vedar vasilhas, ânforas e garrafas, mantendo-se até hoje um material de excelência para este efeito. Reúne uma vasta lista de particularidades e excelentes características, é leve, impermeável, flexível, isolante, biodegradável, entre outras. Na arquitetura ela apresenta a capacidade de isolar e revestir. Devido ao coeficiente de condutibilidade térmica baixo a cortiça mostra uma boa competência para a função isolamento térmico e acústico. No revestimento é um material sublime e elegante capaz de transformar atmosferas e tornar espaços únicos que interagem com o passar do tempo, devido á alteração de cor com a chuva e o sol. O projeto de intervenção situado em Santa Maria da Feira exibe e demonstra o potencial da cortiça. O largo é transformado num espaço flexível, orgânico explorando as qualidades intrínsecas do material.
Abstract: We study the cork as a building material, in order to give an answer to the architectural contemporary needs. Starting from a brief analysis of the formation and evolution of the material, we could see that it comes from the cork tree and it regenerates every 9 years. Contrary to what it may seem, the cork has always been part of the human culture as a technical material, mostly due to its isolating and floating ability. Since man started to produce wine, the cork assumes an important role for sealing vessel, amphora and bottles, remaining until today an excellent material for this purpose. It gathers a wide list of particularities and excellent features, it’s it is lightweight, waterproof, flexible, insulating, biodegradable, among others. In architecture the cork maintains the ability of insulate and coat. Due to the low thermal conductivity coefficient, the cork shows a good competence to the function of thermal and acoustic insulation. In coating it is a sublime and elegant material able to transform unique spaces that interact over time, due its colour changes with the rain and the sun. The intervention project, located at Santa Maria da Feira, shows and demonstrates the cork’s potential. The square is transformed in a flexible, organic space, exploring the intrinsic qualities of the material.
