The document summarizes the EUI Library's initiative to deliver physical library materials directly to users across the university's campus. It discusses how the library works with other campus services to transport requested books and other items from the main library building to holding shelves in other campus buildings via shuttle bus. Statistics are provided on usage patterns that show increased demand for the delivery service during poor weather or when users are working in other campus buildings. The initiative aims to make the physical library collection more accessible and support users' research and teaching needs.
From its beginning ADP invested effort into development and strengthening of relationship with researchers - data depositors. The effort was concentrated on the promotion of data services and presenting advantages of data depositing. On the other hand we invested into assuring high quality research: by selection and evaluation of research and its data. Since the policies of research funding agencies are changing (due to requirement of international community and H2020) in the way that open access to research data is becoming a requirement and researchers are becoming more and more motivated to deposit their data, the archives are approaching new challenges. The aim of this presentation is to show (1) the development of the relationship ''ADP – data depositors'' from the beginning , (2) to evaluate the current situation (3) and to establish what are the challenges we will have to deal with.

presentation for Staffordshire University leolaoshi
SDLL was founded in 2005 as the first Experimental Library of the National Digital Library of China. It strives to provide open access to information and ideas. Its mission is "sharing of wisdom and creation of value." SDLL has resources from partners like the National Science and Technology Library and OCLC. It supports teaching and research through information literacy training, workshops, and interlibrary loans. SDLL also offers public education programs to promote reading and learning.
The document discusses predictions for libraries in 2020. It describes how library spaces may evolve from places for quiet study to active learning hubs. It also explores how print collections may decrease as electronic resources grow, though reliability and access issues remain. The role of librarians is envisioned to shift from stamping books to providing expertise through embedded roles and research support. The future library catalog is predicted to involve more collaborative cataloging and value-added features rather than exhaustive records.

This allowed over 600 registered users and over 100 active users to access scholarly content from home for research and teaching. Services included trial access to resources, information dissemination, research support, anti-plagiarism software, and document delivery. The library also hosted webinars on databases and participated in over 25 virtual meetings to support digital learning during the pandemic. Library website usage and remote access to resources increased significantly based on the usage statistics provided.
The Ukrainian Library Association has made continuing education for librarians a top priority for over 17 years. In 2000, they established the Center for Continuing Library Education in partnership with other organizations to provide trainings, workshops, and conferences. Since 2009, the Bibliomist Program launched the National Training Center and 24 Regional Centers across Ukraine to create an educational network for librarians. Over 1430 librarians have been trained through interactive courses on topics such as technology, management, and ethics. Trainees have reported starting new library initiatives and services after their education. The ULA aims to design more courses and train an even broader audience of librarians going forward.
2014 Bringing Libraries on the agenda - a political QuestionMichel Steen-Hansen

Library is considered as an important part of the college which is the major learning resource for the students and staff. As per the changing time, role of library is also being changed. Advanced technology has been utilized by the library to provide library services. The main aim of library is to avail the various reading material and learning resources to the students and work for the amusement and imbibe values in the readers by reading various autobiographies of great leaders. Students get inspirations and life-force for their future life by reading.
Library and information science (LIS) is a multi-disciplinary and dynamic field which adapts rapidly to technological and social developments, and keeps pace with emerging ideas and technologies. The willingness of library and information professionals to proactively accept changes and venture into new knowledge territories is helping the LIS discipline to stay relevant and useful in the fast changing society. Other factors that are driving innovation and creativity in LIS, are the popularity of the Web as an alternative source for information acquisition as well as competition from non-library agencies now involved in information provision.
Information and communication Technology (ICT) has been considered as the most instrumental factor for the change in the mode of delivery of library services. General and traditional services of the library have been influenced with the introduction of new innovative practices, because of application of new ICT –based products and services.

Presentation to Northern Sydney District Teacher Librarian Association Roxanne Missingham
This document discusses the changing role of libraries and information in the digital age. It notes that libraries now provide access to both print and digital information and must help users develop digital literacy skills. There is debate around whether digital formats can fully replace print and the role of libraries in providing long-term access to reliable information. New technologies like mobile devices and open data present opportunities but also challenges around issues like copyright and the risk of information being lost. The future of libraries may involve roles in areas like data management and supporting rights in the evolving information environment.

Strategies for Effective Upskilling is a presentation by Chinwendu Peace in a Your Skill Boost Masterclass organisation by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan on 08th and 09th June 2024 from 1 PM to 3 PM on each day.
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.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
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

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.
