This document analyzes characteristics of paper publications in major countries focusing on journals. It finds that the structure of paper publications varies among countries in terms of open access journals, publishing country of journals, and language used. Key results include: open access journals have higher ratios of English papers, international collaborations, and citations from foreign countries; non-open access journals contribute more to the increase in paper publications for most countries except Japan; and English is the dominant language used especially in open access journals and foreign journals.

The Lithuanian Economy - No 7, October 4, 2011Swedbank
The Lithuanian economy is becoming more reliant on domestic consumption as export growth decelerates. Exports of goods grew 38.3% in the first seven months of 2011 but growth is slowing rapidly. Exports to the EU, which make up 60% of exports, are also slowing as the euro area economy weakens. However, household confidence and retail sales excluding cars increased strongly in August, suggesting consumption will help offset slowing exports. Key export industries like chemicals and transport saw record growth in 2011 but this is unlikely to continue as the external environment deteriorates.
The survey of 892 downtown Kansas City residents found that more residents are owning rather than renting homes and having higher incomes.

Time Management for non-linear people and projects. Addresses mindset and limiting beliefs, as well as offering tools and ideas. Presented at Catalyst Ranch on 6/13/2012
The document is a research report from Wells Fargo Securities analyzing the midstream energy sector. It notes that US midstream stocks are up year-to-date while Canadian midstream is down, and discusses investors' interest in capturing commodity upside through midstream. However, it finds that due to fee-based contracts, there are few ways to gain meaningful direct commodity exposure through US midstream anymore. It identifies several midstream companies with over 5% commodity-driven cash flow and models the potential earnings impact of current commodity prices being sustained.

The document discusses current trends and challenges facing the global magazine industry. It notes that while magazine companies are generally profitable, growth has slowed in mature markets. The recession negatively impacted magazine advertising revenues, especially in countries with large ad volumes like the US. However, circulation was less affected. The future of magazines depends on successfully transitioning to digital platforms while maintaining their role as trusted content providers. Emerging markets still show growth potential. Organizational changes are needed for magazines to adapt to new technologies and consumer behaviors.
The document examines how philanthropy and the stock market relate during times of economic crisis. It analyzes 13 major events between 1939-2008 and finds that while the stock market often drops initially after a crisis, it recovers within a year. Philanthropy has increased year-over-year in all but one case, even during recessions and stock market declines. Down markets do not necessarily lead to decreased giving. The data shows philanthropy remains resilient during economic storms.

years.
Captures valuable information on the scholarly publishing
industry.
This is a benchmarking report: collected statistics that
enables the comparison of performance across
institutions in the industry.
Data should be used as a means of evaluating own
practices, not as formal comparative measurements.
The statistics are a valuable tool for understanding the
university press community, but they should not be
applied rigorously as standards or targets.

4. 60 presses participated in this year’s survey, decrease of 6
presses from last year’s 66.
Data is collected from participating presses, consolidated

34. Additionally, 10 respondents stated that ebook data should be
included in the annual survey; half said that the data should be
incorporated into Appendix 3.
The Business Systems Committee held an electronic discussion in
March about the various ways this data could be included.
Other suggestions for Appendix 4 data gathering:
▪ how ebook editions are released (e.g., simultaneous with cloth or paper or both; or, if
after, how long?)
▪ What platforms are you using to archive your ebook files?
▪ Do you have access or control over these files? If not, where does access/control
reside?
