This document discusses employer-supported volunteering (ESV) from the perspective of the voluntary and community sector. It notes that while national policies aim to increase volunteering rates, actual rates have remained static or declined recently. It also finds that voluntary organizations struggle to recruit enough volunteers generally and volunteers with the needed skills. The document examines challenges like limited resources, the need for a more diverse volunteer base, and developing innovative volunteering opportunities. It proposes strategies for organizations to encourage further employee involvement in volunteering through addressing barriers like flexibility and skills development. Finally, it introduces a new online resource hub for information and tools related to ESV.

They conduct research, provide advice and consulting, and promote community building through events. UKOLN works on projects at local, regional, national, and global levels to help different organizations collaborate and make their resources interoperable. Sharing knowledge through conferences and workshops is important for developing a joined-up approach where organizations work together.
What makes a great place? A story about people, learning and libraries
Christian Lauersen discusses what makes a great library place. He argues that libraries should be workshops for research and cultivate thorough learning. A great library provides an open platform for education and events using digital methods, hardware, software for data analysis and visualization. It offers a dynamic, inspiring learning environment. The most valuable asset is not furniture but the librarian and users. Facilitation of activities like digital methods sessions and data sprints helps build community. A sense of belonging is important. Libraries support different kinds of learning in an alternative setup to the classic. Key to success is the evolving network between the library, universities, and other institutions. Challenges include defining the library's role and positioning itself in the research environment.

The University of Glasgow Library developed a strategy to deliver mobile services over multiple phases.
Phase 1 involved developing a mobile catalogue, implementing QR codes, testing instant messaging and e-books, and conducting user surveys. Based on survey findings that most use mobile internet for email, social media and browsing, the top requested services were searching articles, checking out books and reading e-books.
Phase 2 will focus on improving the mobile website, expanding access to e-resources beyond e-books, using QR codes in physical locations, teaching digital skills, and utilizing mobile devices to improve workflows. The strategy is being implemented and promoted in phases based on user research.SLIC FE 2011Tom MacMaster

Innovation with reducing budgets British LibraryScottish Library & Information Council (SLIC), CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS)
The British Library is facing significant budget cuts while still aiming to fulfill its mission of enabling access and supporting research. This has required developing new digitization and funding models, moving from selective "boutique" digitization to larger-scale "mass digitization" projects pursued through public/private partnerships. Examples discussed include newspaper digitization through a partnership with Brightsolid and book digitization through agreements with Microsoft and Google. While innovative approaches are needed, traditional efficiency improvements also remain important to make progress despite budget challenges.mlibrary project Napier University

The document summarizes research from two surveys on students' use of mobile technologies and attitudes toward using library services on their phones. It finds that most students own smartphones and browse the web daily, with Apple and Samsung being the most popular brands. While over 90% of students would like to access library services on their phones, about a third said data limits restrict their mobile web use. The document concludes that libraries need to design accessible services for a variety of mobile devices and operating systems while keeping pace with the rapid changes in mobile technology.Wendy Walker - Ebooks Unbound at University of Glasgow – Power to the Users?

The document discusses the University of Glasgow's experiments with demand-driven acquisition (DDA) models for ebooks. It implemented a small patron-driven acquisition trial through an ebook aggregator, spending a limited amount on about 1500 ebook titles over 4 months. Usage was high, with 10% of titles receiving 10 or more access and the average cost per used title being £55.96. Only 10% of titles saw no repeat use after initial purchase. The university is considering further DDA trials and evaluating different models to help build its ebook collection in a responsible way while supporting user needs.Nora Dale - Growing Knowledge: The evolution of research

The document outlines three deliverables for a project: 1) Install a prototype digital research space, 2) Design and build user interfaces and workstation arrays demonstrating a vision for multimedia digital research, 3) Evaluate user experiences in the technology-rich environment. It then summarizes findings from evaluating the prototype space, including that researchers want advanced search functionality and better organization of research papers, and that Wi-Fi access and using their own devices were important to users. The recommendation is to focus on greater remote access to resources, advanced search and reference tools, and training to facilitate their use while acknowledging a role in the full digital research process beyond content provision.More from Scottish Library & Information Council (SLIC), CILIP in Scotland (CILIPS) (20)

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

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.
