Duke University Libraries Renovations Updateaaron_welborn
Briefing presentation on the Rubenstein Library renovation and the construction of the Bostock Library Research Commons at Duke University. (03/19/2014)
The Head of Library Services at the Augustine House Library and Student Services Centre at Canterbury Christ Church University , Pete Ryan, gave us a very interesting talk on how the library grew from an idea in to a reality and shared with us how it has changed since it was first opened.
A research librarian can provide 5 types of assistance: 1) Answering enquiries via email or walk-in about the library and research. 2) Hands-on training on using the digital library system PYXIS. 3) Instruction on best practices for using relevant databases. 4) Research consultations for small groups working on projects and assignments. 5) Online research guides and subject navigators to help students start their research.

Working with News Data across different media: A workshoplabsbl
The aim of the News Data workshop is to bring together researchers, developers and content owners to look at different kinds of British Library news data and how they may be used. There will be a number of short presentations from projects either using BL news data or with which we are collaborating on news data-related work.
The key aims are to illustrate the extent of our news collections, to demonstrate ways in which their data can be re-used for research, and to encourage cross-media analysis of news datasets (i.e. print, TV, radio, web). The event will be followed by a news hackathon which will be run on Monday 16th of November, 2015 at the British Library.
An introduction to the British Library's digital collections, resources and partnerships. Presented at the 'Discovering Collections, Discovering Communities' 2015 conference (Salford, 13 October 2015)
The document discusses Wikipedia and its reliability for academic settings. It provides details on what Wikipedia is as a user-editable online encyclopedia. While it has advantages like a huge database of information and community contributions, it also has disadvantages like potential inaccuracies and lack of verification of editors. Studies have found Wikipedia to be only slightly less reliable than Encyclopedia Britannica. The document concludes that Wikipedia can be used to introduce topics for education but generally not as a primary source due to accuracy concerns.

The document summarizes a project to transform QUT libraries from paper repositories to 21st century learning environments. The objectives were to create collaborative and individual learning spaces, increase computers and study spaces, and make the libraries hubs for their campuses. Before the transformation, the libraries were traditional paper-based collections. After, the renovated libraries included colorful furniture, increased technology, and positive feedback from students and faculty who saw them as vibrant learning spaces. The outcomes included transformed spaces for different learning styles, increased computers and study areas, and more flexible designs.
The document provides information about the Mary B. Blount Library at Averett University. It details the library hours, collections, resources usage in 2011-2012, number of visits, teaching and learning services, online access, borrowing policies, improvements for 2012-2013, and lists the library faculty and staff. Coffee Talks, 20-minute weekly presentations on various topics, are highlighted as a new learning initiative for students and faculty.

The David Wilson Library at the University of Leicester has undergone many expansions over the decades to try and keep up with the growing student population and need for space. The latest expansion created a state-of-the-art library with 1500 study spaces, group rooms, 350 computers, and a café. User surveys found extremely high satisfaction ratings with the new design. While it has doubled library visits, the space is now often overcrowded. The next steps discussed are providing even more study and group spaces to meet the growing demand.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
