This document discusses four major theoretical frameworks for understanding the relationship between technology and society: technological determinism views technologies as causal agents that enter societies independently and affect them, while humans have little power to resist; social construction of technology sees humans as the primary causal agents who shape both technology and society; social shaping argues influence flows in both directions between technology and society; and domestification views technologies as no longer agents of change once they become taken-for-granted parts of everyday life.

Barnes & Noble is facing declining revenues due to changes in the book industry that have seen value migrate online and to e-books. This document analyzes Barnes & Noble's current strategy and market position, identifies key issues, and proposes two strategic options - an online-centric strategy to directly compete with Amazon, or a "Trailblazer" strategy focusing on a niche segment. It identifies avid and casual readers as the best target segments due to their needs aligning closely with Barnes & Noble's existing strengths over competitors like Amazon and local bookstores. The proposed strategy is for Barnes & Noble to focus on delivering unique value to avid and casual readers by improving convenience while strengthening areas like space to read and browse books.
The document discusses trends in digital workplaces and flexible workspaces in major cities. It notes that freelancing is growing significantly, with over 4 million freelancers in France, and cities are transforming office space to address these trends. Examples are given of coworking spaces supported by the City of Paris and new flexible office developments by companies in Greater Paris aimed at cost savings. Venture-backed shared workspace companies like WeWork and Liquidspace that allow short-term rental of offices through apps are discussed. The future of work is argued to be enabled by an "Uberization" of workplaces through digital technology and apps that facilitate finding, renting, and accessing workspaces and cloud-based work resources.
This document provides context about understanding historical events. It explains that historical context includes the values, beliefs, conditions, and practices of the past which may differ from today. To understand an event, one must consider it in its proper context rather than judging it based solely on modern values. As an example, it discusses a 12th century battle between Muslim and European armies from the perspective of Baha' ad-Din, an advisor to Saladin, who witnessed the battle. Additional context is given that the account was written to praise Saladin, which could affect the understanding of what actually happened. Students are prompted to think of how point of view and bias can influence the historical context portrayed in an account.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

This session will cover how to find newspaper articles through a range of sources. Over the past ten years researching newspapers has changed dramatically. in recent years there have been developments which make finding content in newspapers a lot easier. And while you can now search a newspaper or across newspapers in the same way you might do a web search it is still important to realise is that there isn’t a single place to search for newspaper articles, sometimes you might need to search a source in a number of ways, sometimes you might need to search multiple sources and sometimes you might even need to look at the microform or the original newspaper itself.The most notable of these developments is the NLA project to digitise Australian newspapers, available via the search service Trove. We’ll spend a fair bit of this session looking at Trove today and other digitised historical newspaper services that the National Library subscribes to including the British Newspaper Archive, gale news vault and the Irish Newspaper Archives.we will spend some time on new news as well by looking at Library Press Display and Factiva Of All of the subscription services that I have just mentioned only the BNA archive ca not be accessed outside the building. Factiva, Library press Display, Gale News Vault and the Irish Newspaper archives can all be accessed from home by registered readers of the NLA – i’ll show you how as we go through.Lastly, if time permits give you a quick overview some Newspaper resources in print and microform and how you can access these
