The mission of the Institute for Hebrew Bibliography (IHB), located at the Jewish and National University Library (JNUL) in Jerusalem from the early 1960s to the present, is to describe all of the books printed in Hebrew characters since the invention of printing to 1960. The ambitious scope of the project was set only after discussions between historians and catalogers. The IHB created two card catalogs, one for bibliographic descriptions, and a second for biographies of Hebrew authors. The release, in 1994, of The Bibliography of the Hebrew Book CD-ROM, followed in 2002 by an Internet-accessible database (updated in 2004), are benchmarks that allow the public to assess the work of the IHB. Technological advances can be used to deliver a clean and easily searchable database only when basic concepts of cataloging/database retrieval have been fully addressed.

M.N. Kolesnikova’s monograph “Ahead of Time. To the 100th Anniversary of the Institute of Book Studies (Petrograd-Leningrad, 1920—1933)”, published in 2020, is a valuable contribution to the history of book science, library science, bibliography science, the general history of Russian culture and a fascinating textbook for students of library, information and media cultural school. The history of the Institute of Book Studies is a vivid illustration of the relationship between the totalitarian power and the creative intelligentsia. The monograph, which contains detailed biographical information about the employees of the Institute of Book Studies, can be called a reference book of library science and book science elite of Leningrad in the 1920s. All the classic problems of bibliography science, library science and book science were in the field of view of the staff of the Institute of Book Studies. Considering the constructive program of activities and the strong team of enthusiasts, the Institute could have grown into a truly research institution if the overall development of the country had gone differently.Based on the analysis of the scientific-research and educational activities of the Institute, it is concluded that it can be considered the birthplace of the Russian Bibliologos. Bibliologos is interpreted in two ways: first, as a social group of intellectuals-book lovers who ensure the functioning of the national bibliosphere; second, as a universe of bibliological knowledge embodied in book form as a result of scientific, pedagogical and practical activities of intellectuals-book lovers. The author highlights that it is necessary to preserve the memory of the Leningrad Institute of Book Studies, which served as the “cradle of the Russian Bibliologos” in the history of book culture.

Full textAbstract:
In the Decree of the President V. V. Putin of July 21, 2020 "On the national development goals of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030", there are two national goals that are directly related to the book and library business: the education of a harmoniously developed and socially responsible personality and the implementation of digital transformation of key sectors of the economy and social spheres. The Russian Bibliologos (book mind) has been creatively and collectively created over millennia. Cognition of the essence of the Bibliologos is a priority task of book and library science and library and information education today. The article examines the biological and social prerequisites of book communication, the dynamics of the development of the classical Bibliologos and the scientific and pedagogical foundations of the formation of the non-classical Bibliologos of the XXI century.The Bibliologos is understood as a biologically and socially determined intelligent productive force mastered by people in the process of hominization (humanization). The following functional definition is proposed: Bibliologos is the collective mind of a historically stable community of people who own the book culture, write and read books and are directly involved in the production of the bibliosphere. The Classical Bibliosphere is defined as a supersystem of book-communication systems that ensures the reproduction, preservation and further development of the national book culture. The structure of the bibliosphere is formed by socio-cultural institutions (systems, or branches of the book business), namely: publishing, printing industry, book trade, librarianship, bibliography. Each institute includes practice, education, science, special communication, management bodies. The branch problems of the bibliosphere are studied by related, but relatively independent, scientific and practical studies (bibliography, library science, records management, book history, bibliopolistics, editsiology, etc.), and bibliology is engaged in general problems – a complex science (or a complex of sciences) about books and books, as well as general document theory, or documentology. In addition to branch institutes, the bodies of the bibliosphere are: bibliophile socio-cultural movement; non-profit and commercial founders and voluntary associations; government authorities and censorship.The participation of the Russian Bibliologos and the library school in the implementation of the human-creative project as a national target is envisaged. Particular attention is paid to the European experience of modeling a new type of person, the historical project "Memory for the Future", cyber-socialization of the society of the future, topical issues of non-classical library and information education and the synthesis of book culture and digital culture of the XXI century. It is concluded that national security and the well-being of future generations depend on the non-classical Bibliosphere, in particular on national libraries and school librarians.

Planning for the Turkish National Library (TNL) began in 1946, and the library was opened in 1948. It outgrew its first building, and in 1983 moved to a new one which contained several new facilities. Its main functions are to collect works produced in and relating to Turkey, to record them and produce bibliographies of them, to establish an information network in Turkey, and to perform a leadership role. The collection numbers 1,500,000 items, including non-book materials; the TNL has two thirds of all Turkish books published in the old script. Last year there were 222,000 users. The library's Bibliographical Institute issues monthly the national bibliography and a bibliography of articles in Turkish periodicals, as well as other bibliographies, and constructs union catalogues. Work on automation started in 1987, and the TNL's computer-based information system, with an OPAC (containing records of a third of the library's stock), information networks and various CD-ROMs, was opened to the public in 1993. Future projects include an online union catalogue of foreign language books, digitization of manuscripts and rare books, a conservation laboratory, and an improved automatic conveyor system. Main barriers to progress are the inadequacy of the Free Copy Act and insufficient numbers and quality of staff.

Previous issue date: 2014-12-12<br>Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq<br>Esta Dissertação de Mestrado tem como objeto de investigação o Programa do Livro Didático para o Ensino Fundamental do Instituto Nacional do Livro (PLIDEF/INL), que funcionou por meio de um sistema de coedição de livros didáticos entre os setores público e privado entre os anos de 1971 e 1976. O dados foram coletados em fontes de diferente natureza, tais como Diários Oficiais da União, Diários do Congresso Nacional, Anuários do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística, documentos do Ministério da Educação e Cultura, do Instituto Nacional do Livro e da Fundação de Apoio ao Estudante, e, ainda, reportagens dos jornais Folha de São Paulo, Jornal do Brasil, Diário de Notícias, Diário do Paraná, Correio da Manhã, A Luta Democrática, O Estado de Mato Grosso, Movimento e Fato Novo, assim como das revistas Veja e Realidade, e também em livros didáticos desse período. A partir do conceito de campo do sociólogo francês Pierre Bourdieu buscou-se responder as seguintes questões: Quais foram as condições históricas e sociais que permitiram a existência do campo do PLIDEF/INL? Quais foram as paradas em jogo que mobilizavam os agentes e as instituições envolvidos no campo? No decorrer do trabalho foi possível perceber que o campo do PLIDEF/INL se constituiu através das interações com o campo do poder político, literário e escolar. No que diz respeito à produção dos livros didáticos, foram coeditados novecentos e vinte e sete títulos entre os componentes curriculares de Linguagem, Matemática, Estudos Sociais, Ciências Naturais e Educação Moral e Cívica. Havia no PLIDEF/INL a predominância do componente de Linguagem, com aproximadamente 44% do total do número de títulos. Em relação à parceria público-privada, identificou-se a presença de trinta e seis editoras no programa, contudo, apenas nove (IBEP, Editora do Brasil, Abril Cultural, Companhia Editora Nacional, FTD, Tabajara, Bloch, e Vigília) representam mais de 70% do número de títulos coeditados. Ao que se refere às paradas em jogo observou-se a mobilização em torno de temáticas como o formato do programa, o preço e o modelo do livro didático adotado, a participação das Secretarias Estaduais de Educação e dos professores nas escolhas dos títulos coeditados e a distribuição dos exemplares nas unidades federadas. Os resultados da pesquisa também indicam que apesar do “problema livro didático” suscitar intenso debate no período, a presença deste artefato na escola brasileira era percebida como inquestionável.<br>This Master’s thesis aims to investigate the Textbook Program for Elementary Education of the National Book Institute (PLIDEF-INL), which worked through a coedition system of textbooks between the public and private sectors from 1971 to 1976. The data were collected in different sources, such as Government’s Official newsletters, National Congress newsletters, annals of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, documents issued by the Ministry of Education and Culture, the National Book Institute and the Student Support Foundation, besides articles published in newspapers (Folha de São Paulo, Jornal do Brasil, Diário de Notícias, Diário do Paraná, Correio da Manhã, A Luta Democrática, O Estado de Mato Grosso and Movimento and Fato Novo) and in magazines (Veja and Realidade) and in textbooks of this period. Based on French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of field, this study sought to answer the following questions: Which were the historical and social conditions that enabled the field of the PLIDEF/INL to exist? Which were the contest at stake that mobilized agents and institutions involved in the field? The development of this study showed that the constitution of the field of the PLIDEF/INL was based on its interaction with the field of political power, literary and school. Regarding the production of didactic books, 927 books were published in the following syllabus components: Languages, Mathematics, Social Studies, Natural Sciences, Moral and Civic Education. The Languages syllabus predominated in PLIDEF/INL, because it represented approximately 44% of all published books. Concerning the partnership between the public and private sectors, it was identified the presence of thirty-six publishing houses in the program. However, only 9 out of 36 companies (IBEP, Editora do Brasil, Abril Cultural, Companhia Editora Nacional, FTD, Tabajara, Bloch and Vigília) represented around 70% of the published books. Regarding the contest at stake, there was mobilization towards some themes, such as the format of the program, the price and the model of the textbooks, besides the participation of the State Education Department and the teachers in the choice of published books and their distribution in Brazilian states. The research results also indicate that, despite the fact that the “problem of the didactic book” led to intense debate in that period, its presence in the Brazilian schools was considered unquestionable.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立政治大學<br>圖書資訊與檔案學研究所<br>107<br>The library is a place where intellectual freedom must be defended, but because of political factors, religious or public pressure, the censorship is enforced, or the permission to read books is restricted. During the period of martial law(戒嚴時期) in Taiwan, the government restricted or banned books through laws and regulations due to political considerations. Under the context of the Cold War and the period of martial law in Taiwan, the Institute of International Relations (IIR) has a task of think tank(智庫), and its library (IIR Library) collected the materials and the publications of China, and was entrusted to storage the banned books. As time goes on, the mission of IIR has changed, and the value and the meaning of the banned books and the restricted materials have also changed.
According to the research motivation, the study aims to discuss (1)the relationship between the banned books during the period of martial law in Taiwan and the IIR Library; (2) the relationship between the change of IIR mission and the meaning and the scope of the banned books and the restricted materials; (3)the formation and development of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library, including the content and bibliographic statistics; (4)the reading rules and management methods of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library; (5)the use and the value of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library.
Through the document content analysis method, the study conducts the bibliographic statistics of the banned books and restricted books of IIR Library, and discusses the formation, management situation, academic application and value of the collections by in-depth interviews. The study obtains the following conclusions: (1)most of the banned books of the Martial Law of IIR Library were returned to the original department after the period of martial law ended; (2)the reason why IIR Library restricts reading is similar to the rules of the martial law about banned books; (3)the source of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library is closely related to the think tank role of IIR; (4)with the transformation of IIR mission，there are some changes in the way that IIR Library collects and manages books; (5)the theme of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library is based on communism and the Chinese Communist; (6)the number of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library should be higher than 5,600; (7)the year of publication of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library are widely distributed from 1912 to 2007; (8)about the year of publication, the number of the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library in the first phase of IIR (1953-1974) and the second phase of IIR(1975-1996) are more than the other phases; (9)about the type of the authors, the most number in the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library is “institutions and publishers”; (10)about location of the publisher, the most number in the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library is “China”; (11)the users state that the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library can meet their research work or academic needs; (12)the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library have the value of research application and historical meaning.
According to the results of the research, the following suggestions are proposed: (1)because IIR and IIR Library have their importance, it is recommended that NCCU and NCCU library should help to adjust their direction of future development; (2)the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library should be redefined and included in the special collection; (3)the collections of IIR Library are not easy to save, it should make the preservation environment better; (4)it is recommended that IIR Library should make a choise or adjust the classification number of 007-008; (5)the banned and restricted collections of IIR Library should be digitalized and make them become the institutional repository of NCCU.

Full textAbstract:
-- With support from the Arts and Humanities Research Council of the UK and the Deutsches Historisches Institut Moskau -- The French Language in Russia provides the fullest examination and discussion to date of the adoption of the French language by the elites of imperial Russia during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is interdisciplinary, approaching its subject from the angles of various kinds of history and historical sociolinguistics. Beyond its bearing on some of the grand narratives of Russian thought and literature, this book may afford more general insight into the social, political, cultural, and literary implications and effects of bilingualism in a speech community over a long period. It should also enlarge understanding of francophonie as a pan-European phenomenon. On the broadest plane, it has significance in an age of unprecedented global connectivity, for it invites us to look beyond the experience of a single nation and the social groups and individuals within it in order to discover how languages and the cultures and narratives associated with them have been shared across national boundaries.

Full textAbstract:
If you are holding this textbook in your hands, it means that you understand the need to solve problems when studying a physics course at school. Indeed, it is difficult to overestimate the effect that the solution of problems in the study of physics gives. The textbook contains about 800 problems for the high school physics course. The tasks are based on the examination materials of various universities, including the Republic of Crimea, data from the magazines "Kvant", "Physics at School", information received from correspondence physics and mathematics schools of the Moscow State University named after M. V. Lomonosov, National Research Nuclear University "MEPhI", Bauman Moscow State Technical University, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (State University). We also used the problem books that were released in various years to help those entering universities. The number of problems and their selection are not random and allow, according to the compilers, to demonstrate the types of problems that are often found in the high school physics course, the most rational methods, general approaches and ideas for solving them, and also help to acquire certain skills in solving problems. Can be useful for use in secondary schools when working with students for whom physics is of interest, optional, if you prepare for the entrance exams for physics, a specialized school with advanced study of physics, as well as anyone who wants to learn how to solve problems in physics.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractSocio-economic residential segregation is a common feature of almost all Argentinean cities, neatly divided into poor, middle-class, and affluent neighborhoods. At the end of the 1980s, and especially over the 1990s, the process of suburbanization for affluent and upper middle-class groups was consolidated as a generalized model. This study concentrates on the trends and the patterns of socio-economic segregation in Buenos Aires and focuses on two major dimensions of segregation: the spatial concentration patterns of a given social group in specific areas and the degree of social homogeneity within such areas. Socio-economic segregation is described using the highest level of education that a householder has completed as a proxy for socio-economic status. The indices of segregation and dissimilarity are used as the main measure to compare the level and changes of residential segregation but other metrics—such as location quotient index—are also used to estimate the degree of homogeneity or heterogeneity in neighboring areas. This study uses population and household census data from 1991, 2001, and 2010 provided by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INDEC), and the data are presented at the spatial disaggregation level of block groups called ‘radios censales’.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This book chapter focuses on a programme on improving human health through livestock research in three areas: (i) animal-source foods for nutrition; (ii) zoonoses (diseases transmitted between animals and people); and (iii) FBD. This was the first CGIAR group with an explicit food safety mandate (rather than focusing on specific hazards) and with expertise in using research methods for food safety rather than diseases in general. ILRI was also one of the first groups to focus on food safety in the 'informal markets' of developing countries, and by the 2010s, had become the lead research institute globally in this emerging area. ILRI research on FBD has resulted in many science outputs, including some genuinely innovative tools and approaches, and has already demonstrated outcomes at community, national and regional levels. These include substantial inputs into global, regional and national strategies and national training programmes. The major development-oriented approach - the triple-path for training, motivating and enabling of informal market agents - has been shown to be both scalable and sustainable. While questions remain about its lasting effects on food safety and its application outside those few countries where its success has been demonstrated, the next few years should bring further evidence about this, with benefits lasting for many decades to come.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractSocioeconomic segregation has become a common phenomenon, both in the Global North and Global South, and highly relates to income inequality. The merging of these two notions affects the geography of residential areas which are based on the socio-occupational composition. This chapter focuses on the Jakarta Metropolitan Area (JMA). Not only is Jakarta the largest metropolitan area in Southeast Asia, it is also one of the most dynamic. Batavia, the colonial capital of the former Dutch East Indies in the first half of the twentieth century, was a small urban area of approximately 150,000 residents. In the second half of the century, Batavia became Jakarta, a megacity of 31 million people and the capital of independent Indonesia was beset with most of the same urban problems experienced in twenty-first-century Southeast Asia, including poverty, income inequality, and socioeconomic segregation. This study aims to identify the correlation among income inequality, socioeconomic segregation, and other institutional and contextual factors which caused residential segregation in JMA. The analysis consists of two stages. First, we examine income inequality measured by the Gini Index as well as the occupational structure based on the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO). Second, we investigate residential segregation by using the Dissimilarity Index as a result of socioeconomic intermixing in residential areas. The data in this study comes from multiple sources including Indonesia’s Central Bureau of Statistics, Indonesia’s National Socio-economic Survey (Susenas), Indonesia’s Economic Census, Jakarta’s Regional Bureau of Statistics, and policies related to the housing system and investment in the JMA. This study also produces maps of socioeconomic segregation patterns from several sources including Jakarta’s Geospatial Information Centre, Jakarta’s Spatial Plan Information System, and the Indonesian Poverty Map by the SMERU Research Institute.

Full textAbstract:
Part I of the book focusses on three villages in the Municipality of Përmet: Bënjë, Kosinë and Leusë. Bënjë, which lies entirely within the "Bredhi i Hotovës - Dangëlli" National Park, has undergone anthropization processes since prehistoric times. Due to its landscape and architectural value, it was recognised in 2016 as a “historical centre” and as such has come under the protection of the National Institute for the Cultural Heritage. There is little information concerning the history of Kosinë. The inhabitants show a strong connection with the Byzantine Church of the Dormition of Mary, but regrettably, it was impossible to go back to the origins of the current settlement. The village of Leusë, instead, existed before 1812, the year in which the Church of the Dormition of Mary was built. Today, the image of the village is a consequence of the partial reconstruction occured after the severe damage suffered during World War II. In the first chapters, the importance of the intangible heritage is stressed. Përmet’s food heritage is well-known on a national scale for its typical products (spirits, fruit preserves, dairy, meat, honey and bakery products), which result from the favourable climatic conditions and the rich biodiversity of the area. The tradition of the Tosk iso-polyphony, the hospitality of Përmet inhabitants and their historical devotion to religion, knowledge and study emerge with great strength together with the craftsmanship traditions and the exceptional skills of the itinerant and seasonal master builders. In the following chapters, the multiple aspects of the tangible heritage are analysed. The landscape in Përmet includes a vast variety of habitats, which have preserved to a large extent their original qualities. It is deeply marked by the Vjosa River and other several minor watercourses that crisscross the territory. A special attention is given to the historical built heritage of the villages, and specifically to three architectural assets (all listed as category I Cultural Monuments): the Katiu Bridge in Bënjë (an Ottoman bridge of the 18th century), the Church of the Dormition of Mary in Leusë (a Post-Byzantine building of the 19th century), and the Church of the Dormition of Mary in Kosinë (a Byzantine building of the end of the 12th century). For each of the aforementioned issues, the theoretical and historical analysis are closely bound to an evaluation of those features of the cultural heritage that could be enhanced to guarantee a sustainable tourism development of the area. Each chapter ends with a consistent set of specific intervention strategies. They are substantive tools for action aimed at public and private local actors.

Full textAbstract:
Sign languages, structurally different from oral languages, are based on gestures and involve their own grammars and repertoires of lexical units (signals or signs), and they play an important role in establishing communication among deaf people around the world. This chapter primarily focuses on the development of dictionaries for Libras (an acronym for Língua Brasileira de Sinais, or ‘Brazilian Language of Signs’), the natural language of the Brazilian deaf community. It traces the influence of the first dictionary of the deaf in Brazil, Iconographia dos Signaes dos Surdos-Mudos (‘Iconography of Signs of Deaf-Mutes’), which was published in 1875 by the National Institute of Education of the Deaf (INES) and authored by Flausino José da Gama, a student at the Institute. In their demonstration of the influence and inspiration this dictionary gave to lexicographers who followed da Gama, Bidarra and Martins outline the historical trajectory of sign languages up to the present, considering different and parallel paths for sign languages in different countries, forms of stigmatization of sign language, and barriers to its use. Incorporating this historical and transnational analysis, Bidarra and Martins present both a broad discussion of the various models of sign language dictionaries that have been used around the world and an in-depth analysis of the development of Libras dictionaries in Brazil to the modern day.

Full textAbstract:
Engineering practitioners often find themselves required to locate technical and non-technical information from a variety of sources. They may generate quotes, research equipment specifications, determine market shares, delineate a proposed manufacturing process, find company profiles, retrieve demographics data, certify compliance with international or national standards, or research any one of countless other pieces of information. This may involve books, CDs, periodicals, newspapers, corresponding via email, fax, letters or the worldwide web, across several languages. Few classroom projects address practitioner’s needs for broad information research skills. This paper details strategies for a unique student research project leading to useful experience applicable to engineering and engineering technology practitioners in any discipline, in any locality. The project could be instituted in virtually any class at any level and run in any language. It is readily adaptable to changing technology, any textbook, and has now been in use since 1982. As implemented at Purdue University, it has been cited by multiple ABET re-accreditation teams for innovation and as an excellent example of continuously improved instruction. Over the years it has grown to become one of the more noteworthy experiences cited in both student exit surveys and in graduate surveys.

ABSTRACT Background: The availability of resources is important in running a program. The implementation of the Non-Specialist Referral Policy has experienced many obstacles due to the lack of resource availability. This study aims to determine the availability of resources for the implementation of the Non-Specialist Outpatient Referral Policy in the National Health Insurance Era at the Public health center in Ngawi Regency, East Java. Subjects and Method: This study was a descriptive qualitative study conducted at Public Health Center in 2017, A total of 31 sources was selected by mapping and purposive sampling. The data were collected by means of triangulation of sources and in-depth interviews, observation, secondary document study. The data were analyzed by reduction, presentation and verification. Result: Obstacles stems from the absence of a recruitment decree from the regent and no funding from Public health center to recruit under the BLUD scheme. Health equipment available is only 43% to 60% of the need. The main obstacle is the regent approves the high price of equipment and not all budget estimates. Good medicine, if certain conditions are less spent than capitation funds. Finance is sufficient because the sources of funds vary, from capitation, DAK, DAU, BK, BOK, etc. Conclusion: The availability of medicine and finance is sufficient, but human resources and equipment are still lacking. It requires commitment and policies from Ngawi District Government, public health center policies and public health center commitments to realize the BLUD scheme to overcome resource shortages.

Full textAbstract:
Kanazawa Institute of Technology (hereinafter KIT) started its education reform in April 1995. The basic principle behind the reform is to develop students who can learn autonomously. The idea comes from education inadequacies up to that time, where instructors “crammed” knowledge into students. KIT established the “Factory for Dreams and Ideas” (hereinafter “Yumekobo” which is the original Japanese name of the facility), a facility open to all KIT students. There they can create things any time they like. The students can utilize “Yumekobo” freely, in the same manner as a library. In Japan, the national holidays and Sundays total sixty-five days in a year leaving three hundred days for potential use of “Yumekobo”. University classes are in session one hundred and fifty days. This means it is necessary for KIT professors and instructors to come up with good strategies to have the students spend the remaining one hundred days in a productive way that will help students to raise their academic performance. To facilitate increased performance, KIT built a library center in 1982. There, learning takes place mainly through reading books. However, we felt that another new facility to stimulate students’ interest in creating things would be an excellent way to motivate further learning for the students. Here the author will explain present state of “Yumekobo” and how it has helped students continually seek to implement their ideas, especially through team activities.

BackgroundCare recipients in care and welfare are increasingly presenting themselves with complex needs (Huber et al., 2016). An answer to this is the integrated organization of care and welfare in a way that personalized care is the measure (Topol, 2016). The reality, however, is that care and welfare are still mainly offered in a standardized, specialized and fragmented way. This imbalance between the need for care and the supply of care not only leads to under-treatment and over-treatment and thus to less (experienced) quality, but also entails the risk of mis-treatment, which means that patient safety is at stake (Berwick, 2005). It also leads to a reduction in the functioning of citizens and unnecessary healthcare cost (Olsson et al, 2009).Integrated CareIntegrated care is the by fellow human beings experienced smooth process of effective help, care and service provided by various disciplines in the zero line, the first line, the second line and the third line in healthcare and welfare, as close as possible (Ettema et al, 2018; Goodwin et al, 2015). Integrated care starts with an extensive assessment with the care recipient. Then the required care and services in the zero line, the first line, the second line and / or the third line are coordinated between different care providers. The care is then delivered to the person (fellow human) at home or as close as possible (Bruce and Parry, 2015; Evers and Paulus, 2015; Lewis, 2015; Spicer, 2015; Cringles, 2002).AimSupport societal participation, quality of live and reduce care demand and costs in people with complex care demands, through integration of healthcare and welfare servicesMethods (overview)1.

This report summarizes the primary output of this project, a book of COVID-era street reconfiguration case studies called Rethinking Streets During COVID-19: An Evidence-Based Guide to 25 Quick Redesigns for Physical Distancing, Public Use, and Spatial Equity. COVID-era needs have accelerated the process that many communities use to make street transformations due to: a need to remain physically distanced from others outside our immediate household; a need for more outdoor space close to home in every part of every community to access and enjoy; a need for more space to provide efficient mobility for essential workers in particular; and a need for more space for local businesses as they try to remain open safely. This project is the third in a series of NITC-supported case study books on best practices in street reconfigurations for more active, sustainable, and in this case, COVID-supportive uses. The full, 154-page book is available for free download from the National Institute for Transportation and Communities (NITC).
