Abstract:
The library cannot achieve its goals without cooperation with the internal and external public. Therefore, libraries need PR (public relations) in their efforts to achieve their goals. The activity of the university library is directly or indirectly related with the PR activity since it is the part of PR activities to promote the image and the use of the library. The implementation of public relations activities in libraries has actually been performed by reference librarians. Reference librarians can use a variety of printed and online media, or convey information directly related to library

Objective - The primary purpose of this study was to better understand the nature of “reference” and reference transactions. Methods - This study looked at four years’ of reference transaction (RT) data recorded at a small, state-owned university. Results - The data clearly indicates that the overall number of RT continues to decline. It also reveals that, despite the use of student mentors, librarians are still involved with a majority of RT, regardless of whether or not they require the expertise of a librarian to resolve.

Abstract:
National statistics indicate that academic libraries are experiencing declines in reference transactions, but the references services in some libraries continue to thrive. While many studies explore reasons that students do not seek assistance from librarians, there is limited research explaining why students do ask for help. The authors conducted a study to answer two questions: (1) How do undergraduate students look for information? (2) What prompted the students to seek out help from a librarian? To answer these questions, the authors conducted in-depth, semi-structured interviews with unde

Literature and research in the areas of£ question negotiation and reference direction were gleaned for sets of generally accepted rules about a professional reference librarian’s skills. The sets of rules allowed the development of a rule-based system to address an important function in libraries - providing reference assistance to patrons. An expert system is a program that takes the place of human experts by codifying the knowledge and rules they use to reach their conclusions.

These compound libraries can be made as mixtures, sets of individual compounds or chemical structures generated by computer software.

Simakov, S. Evaluation of the Prompt Gamma-ray Spectrum from Spontaneous Fission of 252Cf. IAEA Nuclear Data Section, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.61092/iaea.bz1p-e3yc.

Abstract:
The energy spectra, multiplicities and average energies of the prompt, total and delayed γ-rays accompanying the spontaneous fission of 252Cf were collected from the literature and dedicated databases. They were carefully analysed for consistency with a view to producing reference data for usage in various applications. This could be accomplished for the prompt fission gamma ray spectrum up to 20 MeV since dozens of measurements exist and reasonably agree. The prompt fission gamma ray spectrum (PFGS) was non-model evaluated by fitting the preselected experimental data with the help of the gene

Abstract:
Background. Optimal nutrition is needed to support individuals during pregnancy and placental development, fetal growth, and growth and development during infancy. Many foods contain digestible carbohydrates, or carbohydrates other than fiber/nondigestible carbohydrate. Digestible carbohydrates, including sugars and starches, are important sources of energy during these life stages. This review was designed to identify and summarize the evidence on the relationships between digestible carbohydrate intake during pregnancy and newborn size and development (Key Question 1) and gestational weight
