![How to Get Game: Conducting Gaming Events in an Academic Library H. David “Giz” Womack Z. Smith Reynolds Library – Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, North Carolina What is Get Game@ZSR? Get Game@ZSR is a series of video game events that began on a balmy Friday evening in mid-September 2005, when the normally quiet atrium of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library of Wake Forest University was filled with the sounds of Madden and Halo2, as nearly fifty gamers descended on the library. Most recently, in February 2006, the Library sponsored a Halo2 tournament in one of the large reading rooms. This event resulted in our first Get Game@ZSR champion, whose name has been engraved on our championship perpetual plaque on display in the Library. The idea to close the library on Friday night and invite gamers to play their favorite video and computer games developed as the Library’s Marketing Committee was seeking ideas to reach out to students who did not ordinarily find the library until much later in the semester. Why Have Gaming Events in an Academic Library? What better way to reach out to college students than to provide a venue for their favorite pastime? As children, these students played games on the Sony Playstation and Super Nintendo. Now, as college students, they will be playing games on the Xbox 360 and PS3 in their spare time. Giving students a place to pursue these interests generates goodwill for the Library. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Resources Staff for the events include the Library Information Technology Team Staff (6) and Resident Technology Advisors (RTAs) (8). Equipment required includes LCD Projectors (slated for disposal and rescued for the event), screens, and network hubs to connect Xboxes. Pizza, sodas, water and candy keep everyone happy! Long extension cords and surge suppressors are a must! Provide painter’s tape and markers to tag ALL the equipment the players bring to the events. Stock various video connectors for the projectors and game systems. Know where all the circuit breaker panels are located! Tournaments need a trophy for the winner and a plaque for the Library.

Series 2, Texas A&M University Libraries LibGuides Town Hall Meeting
The document summarizes a town hall meeting about updating the subject taxonomy for the library's LibGuides system. A sub-team has been working on the taxonomy update, which includes developing subject homepages, organizing the A-Z database list by subject, and assigning subject librarian experts.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
