Abstract:

Purpose This last edition of the column begins with the disadvantages of sleeping in the library and ends with 60-year-old overdue loans, but in between are alternate ways of using different technology to access information! Design/methodology/approach Sleeping in the library is trending on the internet, not because it is a nice pastime, but because it is one of the most viral trends of the year. Findings The real advice is that falling asleep in public places such as libraries is not good. A lot of wild reactions to the picture of a girl sleeping in a university library has caused all sorts, as “photo-shoppers”have had a field day, putting the sleeper in all sorts of situations – in Drake’s “Hotline Bling” music video, dancing with Michael Jackson and more. Social implications Derrick Lewis on 26th August reported that an Orange County library had made wi-fi devices available for rural internet users. Originality/value It is helping rural families make faster connections, and it is free to try the device which can be borrowed for 3 weeks and renewed twice if no one else has booked to use it.

Abstract:

Libraries can go beyond being places of information to become places of inspiration. Years ago, at the Avon Free Public Library in Connecticut, we began offering creative art for children. These sessions were so successful that a room in the library was redesigned exclusively for creating art. Today, we have one of the first creative art studios located in a public library in the country.

Abstract:

A growing body of research points to the positive impact parents can have on their children when they read to them on a regular basis. This includes improved future academic performance as well as the promotion of important social and emotional development skills.The Salt Lake County (UT) Library wanted to better understand the impact a free book program can have on reading frequency. Staff at the county library’s Byington Reading Room put together a thirteen-question survey in both English and Spanish for parents of children receiving a free book. The survey was distributed over a four-week period in the winter of 2018, and 183 surveys were completed by parents visiting the reading room.

Abstract:

Emergency situation was declared in Estonia in the middle of March; the country was placed under partial lockdown. Libraries had to close. One of the first steps taken by the National Library of Estonia in these exceptional circumstances was to establish a crisis management committee to monitor the overall situation and decide how the library should proceed. The library was able to react quickly and continue with basic services, providing them online or contact-free. New services were introduced, making home lending and reference enquiry more efficient and convenient. The library reopened on 18 May. Looking back, we are happy to have not just survived but managed the crisis as an opportunity. This was reflected in increased numbers of new registered readers and usage. The emergency situation clearly indicated one of the most important requirements for libraries – the need to be ready to react fast and adapt to new situations.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe how the Hudson County Community College Library hosted a Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Tournament as part of its Fall 2015 and Spring 2016 programming, and discuss what it learned from hosting the event. Design/methodology/approach This paper details how a community college library planned, hosted and learned from its experience running a Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U Tournament. It will also describe how the library continued to use this experience to plan additional video game-based programming. Findings The Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U Tournament was generally well received by student attendees. However, student feedback revealed a preference for less-competitive “friendly” events instead of tournaments. Students also requested the option of having several games available instead of one. Originality/value Thus far, there has been little research on academic or community college libraries organizing video game-based programming and activities event. There have also been few studies about whether gaming events work better in libraries as tournaments or “free play” activities.

Abstract:

Two interactive pruning televideoconferences were produced, each comprised of videotaped segments and in-studio pruning demonstrations. In the first televised conference, viewers received step-by-step instructions for pruning four small and tree fruits. Twelve woody ornamentals were pruned in the second conference. The “how-to-prune” segments were performed by Extension personnel and videotaped by University Electronic and Photographic Services. Each of the 2-hour conferences was broadcast live from a classroom television studio with a total of 30 in-studio participants and 178 county extension agents, Master Gardeners, and residents at downlink sites statewide. A toll-free number was available throughout the conference to encourage two-way communication. These televideoconferences culminated in the creation of a library of “how to prune” videotapes, which are available to county agents, Master Gardeners, or residents. Also, several of these segments were aired on C.U.E. Magazine, a monthly, half-hour Extension-sponsored cable television program, and on Making It Grow!, a bimonthly, hour-long Clemson Extension program that is broadcast on SC-Educational Television.

Abstract:

The role of parents was seen as the missing link in provision of infrastructural facilities leading to achievement of desirable performance as the government fulfilled her mandate of providing free education through the Free Day Secondary Education funds. Descriptive survey design was used. The study population included 20 principals, 184 teachers, 776 parents and 776 students. The respondents who were sampled through purposive, incidental and random sampling method included principals, parents, teachers’ and form four students. The study shows there was a significant relationship between Provision of Infrastructural Facilities and students’ performance (R = .594; p < .001). The results of the regression indicated that parents’ participation in provision of Infrastructural Facilities explained 35.2% of the variance in students’ performance (R2 =.352, F (1, 239) = 130.105, p < .001). It was found that parents’ participation in provision of Infrastructural Facilities significantly predicted performance of MFIs (B = .376; p < .001). By replacing the significant coefficients into the equation connecting parents’ participation in provision of Infrastructural Facilities with students’ performance, the equation becomes Y=24,768+ 0.376X2 +:έ. Library, toilets and laboratory in day secondary schools were found to be inadequate hence affecting their performance. The study recommends that parents should be involved in infrastructure development secondary schools as this could influence academic achievement.

Abstract:

e18071 Background: Computerized provider order entry (CPOE) systems have been shown to enhance the safety and efficiency of prescribing chemotherapy over the handwritten ordering process. However, many institutions lack the financial ability, technological capability, or operational flexibility to invest in and implement such a system. In particular, Olive View-UCLA Medical Center (OVMC), a Los Angeles County safety net hospital, is among these institutions with unique restrictions that preclude the use of chemotherapy CPOE and mandate handwritten orders. Methods: In an effort to bridge the gap for safe chemotherapy prescribing, we aimed to develop and implement an effective, scalable, and sustainable chemotherapy provider order entry solution that was operationally sensitive to institutions without a chemotherapy CPOE. The solution was designed as a mobile application using Xcode, the integrative development environment of Apple Inc., with the Swift programing language. Results: On September 5th, 2018, we launched a free, chemotherapy provider order entry solution on the worldwide Apple App Store – ChemoPalRx. Using ChemoPalRx, providers can search, customize, and print common chemotherapy regimens in prescription format. Along with a reference library of over 120 order set and 450 medications, ChemoPalRx is equipped with the functions to automate dosage calculation, suggest pre-medications and safety parameters, and trigger alerts for missing prescribing information. As a quality improvement initiative, we implemented ChemoPalRx at OVMC. Implementation stages include obtaining administrative buy-in, consulting with multidisciplinary staffs, investing $100 USD for a prescription printer, and encouraging providers to download ChemoPalRx on their own mobile devices. An ongoing prospective cohort study is being conducted to determine ChemoPalRx effectiveness in reducing errors compared to handwritten orders. Conclusions: ChemoPalRx is developed to enhance the safety and efficiency of chemotherapy prescribing. Implementation of this mobile application is feasible in the safety-net hospital setting and has the potential to transform oncology practices globally.

Library circulation service and cataloguing are the major duties of teacher-librarians, and the library Online Public Access Catalogue（OPAC）plays an important role for expanding reader service. This research focuses on reducing the workload of teacher- librarians; moreover an intergated system structure which contains all routine of library operation is proposed. In order to process automating catalogue in a short time is suggested here. The system structure of book cataloguing agent mentioned here uses both National Bibliographic Information Network（NBIT）and Wenkiang Bibliographic Information Network（WBIT）as cataloguing data source. The reduction of cataloging efforts is one of our major purposes in this study. The existing servers equipped for junior high or elementary schools in Yunlin County could be applied to store book data and consequently increase utility rate. To reduce the squander of education resource is our another concern. We apply the SSL protocol as an encryption device for both browser and JAVA application. The encryption device serves as the safeguard for protecting reader''s personal information. It is hoped the JAVA language（with cross platform characteristic） and free software（such as php ,openSSL, FreeBSD and so on）adopted in this study would help to construct an effective library system which can take care both concerns regarding finance and security.

Abstract:

The Johnson County Library Makerspace occupies 1700 ft2 (158 m2) of space in the Central Resource Library in Johnson County, Kansas. Originally intended as a modernization of the small business services resource area within the library, the vision for the space quickly pivoted towards a community-based educational experience centered on making. In its original form, the space had one 3D printer and an idea to create a series of summer, mobile maker experiences dispersed amongst the 13 branch libraries. The widely popular mobile makerspace program paved the way to a permanent space for library patrons young and old. The space adheres to the central mission of the library to provide educational experiences for the public. Accordingly, the library has democratized creativity and innovation by providing free access to the equipment and information to the public. The space has reached out to incarcerated youth to inspire them to take up making and use it as a way to build job skills. In addition, the space provides patrons with a pathway to connect and form learning communities around making skills and interest. This chapter explores the Johnson County Library Makerspace.

Abstract:

The automation of university libraries in Brazil underwent a restraint of trade on computers and software, which took place in the country between 1980 and 1990, restricting the initial use of automation systems. However, they were often developed in creative ways: systems and applications were created and used in various universities, some as free software, others based on the ISIS platform from Unesco, in addition to using modern foreign systems, which only occurred in the 1990’s. This chapter provides a historical overview of the development of automation in the country’s university libraries, from the moment in which Brazilian researchers began to disseminate information technology, creating an automation culture in higher education institutions. Many people and institutions have also contributed to promoting and implementing automation in university libraries. This paper is on future perspectives of academic library automation in Brazil with discovery tools, next generation cloud-based systems and library automation equipment. Some possible future developments are also presented.
