Abstract:
For-profit schools constitute the fastest-growing sector of higher education institutions in the United States.1 Yet accompanying the phenomenal growth of these proprietary colleges and universities has been considerable controversy over the role that the profit motive should play in higher education.2 The literature of higher education contains increasingly more works about proprietary schools. The library literature, however, offers little in this arena. Through this article, the authors seek to introduce the library readership to U.S. for-profit colleges and universities. We summarize their history and their characteristics, and we explore reasons for their success and present areas in which these schools appear to excel. With regard to their library services and resources, we focus on issues of concern based specifically on our experience with academic libraries in proprietary schools operating in the state of Ohio. Finally, we suggest ways in which these for-profit institutions can address the challenges faced by their libraries.

Abstract:
Purpose For those immersed in the environment of academic and research libraries, the word “data” seems to be everywhere. One hears about linked data, big data, open data, proprietary data, research data, metadata, geospatial data, data repositories, etc. Design/methodology/approach Some libraries even have data librarians and data services departments. Findings The author of this column wonders if she were to collect all of the library and information science literature published in the past three years and plug it into a word cloud app, which of the two, i.e. “data” or “books”, would be displayed in a larger font. Originality/value The author suspects that the chances are more than good that “data” would come out on top.

Abstract:
Free software enables its free use by anyone under observance of user proprietary rights. The authors review the market of free computerized library information systems. The origins for applying free ALIS are specified; free Evergreen и Koha ALIS are characterized and compared; the list of foreign free ALIS, date and state of development are specified. The methodology for ALIS market estimation is suggested; the role of ALIS developing and related communities is emphasized. The library and designer aspects of ALIS development are described. The new phenomenon of «donation culture» emerged due to implementing free software in libraries. The typical copyright conflict around Koha ALIS between proprietors and independent designers (the latter won with establishing community trust) is described. Using free ALIS follows the general trend of applying free software in public offices, with all advantages and disadvantages of this information infrastructure. As a result, free software is often opposed by the proprietary one, however both components make the competitive market offering users to make choice of ALIS of appropriate price/quality balance.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to explore linked data (LD) initiatives in libraries and information (LI) centres along with motivating factors to start these LD projects and challenges faced by librarians in implementing LD technology. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the objectives of the study, a systematic literature review was conducted. The preferred reporting items were used for systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA) guideline. Data were collected from different scholarly databases. Findings Findings show that many initiatives were taken in LI centres during the past decade. These LI centres had to face many challenges to implement LD technology. These challenges might include technological issues, scarce financial resources, lack of skilled human resources, low level of awareness among community/librarians, proprietary licence, non-availability of standards and best practices. However, technological challenges were more complex. Systematic review shows that most of the LD initiatives and activities in LI centres take place in developed countries. Overall, the results reveal that most of the libraries are in the infancy stage of LD application because of the ambivalent nature of technology. Originality/value This study may be beneficial to devise guidelines to transform the aforementioned different challenges into opportunities. It is also important to provide a holistic picture about the challenges and opportunities of LD through a systematic review of initiatives already taken by LI centres.

Abstract:
The main task of the work is to characterize the array of foreign-language literature of XIX — middle of XX centuries of the funds of the Vasyl Stefanyk Lviv National Scientific Library of Ukraine. The foreign-language fund’s research includes a general analysis of the printed documents, establishing a history of existence and preserving the units of the collection, as well as the revealing of provenances and proprietary inscriptions that appear on editions. The fund of the sector of foreign-language literature of XIX — middle of XX centuries is analyzed on the basis of rarity and value criteria. The linguistic components of the corpus of publications are highlighted: Polishlanguage literature — about 30%, literature in German — about 40%, literature in French — about 25% and 5% in other languages. The work on printed documents explores and describes provenances and proprietary inscriptions that indicate the history of existence and preservation. Due to the work with printed documents, membership of private libraries and book collections, libraries of educational establishments of different levels of subordination, public libraries, reading rooms as well as membership of religious, social and political, military organizations was established. Thematic content of publications is elaborated according to the branch and printed documents on astronomy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, linguistics as well as on religious, local, legal, juridical (normative documents), didactic and military literature are allocated. Fine literature, as a rule, is represented by lifetime editions and republications. When working with the fund, there are single copies of printed documents that are not displayed in open electronic sources. Thus, in the process of work on the formation and revealing of the fund, interesting patterns of Halychyna’s cultural heritage and samples of Western European literature were explored. Scientific and bibliographic description and analysis of the book array that have been conducted will become a common source of library and book research. Keywords: publication, provenances, proprietary inscriptions, stamp, theme, Halychyna.

Abstract:
Purpose Technologies for teaching abound, but many of them are proprietary systems and software that require institutional and individual subscriptions for use. Instructors and librarians in higher education have open source and free options for many types of teaching technologies. While some of these technologies are free to users, open source goes beyond that and makes the source code that runs it available as well. These provide more options to enhance teaching. Design/methodology/approach This paper will provide an overview of the open source landscape and evaluate free and open source technologies of potential use in the college or university classroom. Findings The paper found a number of free and open source tools appropriate for teaching and learning in higher education. These tools may possibly generate savings over proprietary tools, but could have other costs such as additional learning investment or require hosting. Additionally, free and open source technologies provide students with knowledge about tools that they can continue to access after graduation. Libraries have a role in connecting their constituencies to these tools. Originality/value The paper provides descriptive information about a variety of tools for teaching and learning in higher education, as well as examples from the literature of how the tools might be integrated into the classroom and into library instruction.

Abstract:
Many companies possess a compound collection consisting of purified compounds and of unpurified products from combinatorial libraries. Using commercial and proprietary compounds as examples, this report provides clear examples of the significant impact purification can have on the activity observed for a compound and highlights the need to retest the purified compounds prior to creating structure-activity relationships. Crude mixtures made with commercial compounds led to an increase in the number of false positives in the SXR-GAL4 assay as compared with their pure and purified counterparts. An examination of proprietary compounds in an HIV assay resulted in the purification of 61 active crude synthetic mixtures. Of these 61 compounds, 32 were 5-fold less active and 2 were 5-fold more active after purification. This report details a semiautomated process developed and implemented for cherry-picking, tracking, and selectively purifying compounds found active in high-throughput screening campaigns.

Abstract:
This chapter explains the application of EU Directive 96/9 to digital libraries. Digital libraries correspond largely to the broad definition of databases which is established by the Directive 96/9. The application of the database copyright and sui generis regime to digital libraries provides a safe and solid legal protection to digital libraries which fulfill the conditions of originality and investment set by the Directive. The chapter examines in detail the conditions for protection, the subject matter, the content and the extent of the Directive’s 96/9 two-tier legal protection regime as it is applied to digital libraries. While the protection of the structure of a digital library by copyright law has not provoked any reactions both in Europe and in U.S.A., the possibility of protection of the digital library’s contents by the quasi proprietary database sui generis right has been since the adoption of the Directive 96/9 a highly controversial issue. The defendants of the Internet dogma of free and open flow of information consider the sui generis right as an inappropriate and unbalanced legal mechanism which promotes the monopolization of the digital knowledge to the detriment of the public interest. The chapter also demonstrates the conflict between the proprietary interests of the digital library’s maker and the interests of the lawful user of a digital library. Furthermore, a critical overview of the regime of exceptions to database sui generis right is provided. In order to justify and balance the attribution of the proprietary sui generis right, the author argues that the regime of database sui generis exceptions should be enriched and strengthened, especially when the purposes of education, research and information are served by the exceptions.

The purpose of this study is to compare open source versus proprietary ILSs and discovery layers in terms of their next-generation characteristics with particular attention to electronic resources, namely e-books. Of the six libraries compared, the two libraries that used the proprietary add-on BiblioCommons featured the most advanced next-generation catalog characteristics. The two ILSs that did not use any added layers offered the fewest next-generation traits. The catalogs of public libraries vary greatly in their offerings, but add-ons, such as BiblioCommons, enhance the user experience and the retrievability of electronic resources.

Abstract:
A new collaboration paradigm is in order between Digital Libraries (DL) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). These important Information Technology (IT) fields have witnessed great progress in the last few years, only to be surpassed by even greater expectations. Nonetheless, this extraordinary advance has come at a cost: the very proliferation of different representation formats, proprietary standards, protocols and platforms in which information is published or served is hindering the further development of these fields. One discouraging and generally ignored aspect of this situation is that both DL and GIS practitioners have been trying to deal with these problems in an isolated fashion, blind to each others’ achievements and approximations. The result is a lack of synergy and duplication of efforts. In this chapter, the authors share their experience in the GIS field to propose a collaborative approximation to solve some of the most recurrent problems both in DL and GIS.

Framing a technology question as a simple choice between developing an in- house application system and off-the- shelf proprietary system, or simply put, as a choice between build and buy, runs the risk of ignoring myriad options available in between the two extremes. In this era of cloud computing and run anything-as- a-service model, the very notion of developing an in-house application would raise a few eyebrows among C- level executives. How then can academic libraries, under mounting pressure to demonstrate their value (Oakleaf, 2010), justify investments in software development in particular? What follows in these sections is a brief discussion on the importance of investing in software development in libraries, three mini-case studies demonstrating the wide possibilities of integrating software development in library operations and a non- prescriptive model to assess which projects may be worth pursuing from the software development standpoint.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter maps the reception of John Hawkesworth’s theatrical adaptation of Aphra Behn’s Oroonoko in Salem, Massachusetts, in the 1760s, explaining how the literary representation of what Ramesh Mallipeddi calls the enslaved person’s “spectacular suffering” shaped both anti-slavery sentiment and the appropriation of that sentiment by Anglo-American patriots complaining of being enslaved by Britain. It situates this contextualization within the central space of reading in the city, the Salem Social Library, a proprietary subscription library founded by men made wealthy by the slave trade and related enterprises like fish, sugar, molasses, and rum distilling. The reading habits of these men are mapped by reference to the library’s surviving 1760s circulation ledger. Methodologically, it argues that sequential borrowings of volumes of a title, and the velocity of their circulation to members, should count as evidence of the reception of works. It also discusses Massachusetts patriot and abolitionist activity in the 1760s.

Full text
Abstract:
Analysis of a variable displacement axial piston pump, as in other complex fluid power and mechanical systems, requires appropriate insight into three multidisciplinary domains, i.e. hydraulics, mechanics and tribology. In recent years, at FPRL, modelling of axial piston pumps has evolved in AMESim (one dimensional code) where a three dimensional mechanical approach has required generation of proprietary libraries leading to the evaluation of internal forces/reactions in all pump subsystems. Tribologic aspects in axial piston pumps modelling are also being investigated but AMESim, in this respect, does not appear as the appropriate computational environment. Consequently, a new approach has been initiated grounded on MSC.ADAMS. In this perspective, the paper details how the model has been developed through proprietary macros that automatically originate all pump subsystems parametrically and further apply required constraints and forces (springs, contacts and pressure forces). The ADAMS environment has also been selected due to co-simulation capabilities with AMESim. Accordingly, the paper elucidates how the entire modelling has been construed where hydraulics is managed in AMESim while ADAMS takes care of mechanics. As such this paper indicates an innovative methodology for the analysis of complex fluid power systems in the hope that, eventually, tribology will also fit into the scene.

Abstract:
The development of commodity-off-the-shelf computer hardware components has allowed for the trend in high performance computing away from computer-system vendor proprietary hardware. A Beowulf computer system is a high performance computer assembled from commodity-off-the-shelf hardware and uses application programming interface libraries and open source operating systems to create a unified computing environment. In this paper, a Beowulf computer system is described and a performance benchmarking exercise is presented. The simulation is a benchmark problem relevant to hydrocode simulations and specifically simulates the high-speed impact and penetration of a long rod. Through this simulation study and a comparison to similar simulations performed on other computer systems, the price/performance advantage of a Beowulf system is demonstrated.

Both open-source and proprietary software systems have become increasingly complex. Despite their growing complexity and increasing size, software systems must satisfy strict release requirements that impose quality, putting significant pressure on developers. Therefore, the success of software projects is dependent on the identification and hiring of qualified developers to build a solid and cohesive team with different programming skills. Our main goal is to develop and evaluate a method able to compute programming skills from source code analysis. Our method uses software metrics such as Changed Files and Changed Lines of Code, to compute the skills. Our results showed that our method is able of identifying programming skills of the developers about mainly libraries used, programming languages, and profile concerning back-end & front-end and unit test.

Abstract:
Advanced Vehicle Technology Competitions have adopted an online collaboration system to coordinate information sharing and dissemination among hundreds of people from numerous organizations and across multiple countries, including universities, competition organizers, and sponsors involved in the competitions. Microsoft SharePoint is a collection of software elements that includes web browser based collaboration functions, process management modules, search modules and a document-management platform that serves as the foundation for this online collaboration system. SharePoint is used to host a secure web site that accesses shared workspaces, information stores and documents, as well as threaded discussion forums. Users can manipulate controls called “web parts” or interact with pieces of content such as lists and document libraries. The overall team-based engineering education strategy is facilitated throughout the three year EcoCAR program by a two way flow of information between the teams and organizers. Safety and design rules are updated and posted for teams to access. Each team has their own secure document library area for posting required progress reports, design reports, safety documentation, and technical report deliverables that are scored as part of the competition. Scoring results with comments are returned to each team under the team specific site. Proprietary vehicle and component data are also made available, and can be restricted to only those teams that have approved non disclosure agreements with the sponsor. Specific subject and component-based forums are used for asynchronous, threaded exchange of information and questions to subject matter experts. Issues and solutions discovered by students are shared among all teams. The SharePoint Online Collaboration system has significantly improved the information-sharing, evaluation and communications capabilities of the Advanced Vehicle Technology Competitions across a vast audience. This has enabled us to significantly enhance the technical scope of the program and improve the educational value to the university participants.
