This document discusses collaboration among libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs). It begins with a brief history of these institutions, from early "Cabinets of Curiosity" to today's more integrated approaches. Examples of current collaborative projects are provided, ranging from digitization efforts to shared digital platforms. Key factors that can catalyze successful collaboration are identified, including having a shared vision, administrative support/mandate, incentives for participation, and dedicated resources. The document suggests areas for further study, such as longitudinal analyses of proposed projects and comparative examinations of collaboration in other domains. In closing, it acknowledges support from the RLG Programs/OCLC, and thanks workshop participants for their insights.

This document is the presentation titled "A fresh take on leading (in) clusters – the agency of civic entrepreneurs" given by Miranda Ebbekink of Radboud University. The presentation discusses cluster governance and the rise of boards to organize clusters. It argues that effective cluster leadership involves civic entrepreneurs who are locally anchored natives with experience in different institutional worlds. These civic entrepreneurs practice collective, cross-institutional, and participatory leadership styles to redirect cluster participants' thoughts and actions. The key to success is having the right people with the right competences involved in cluster leadership.
Aussie outback
The document discusses P.O.H.M. Services, an Australian non-profit organization that provides various social services. It outlines the services provided, current statistics on those served, and the strategic direction to shift to a more participatory culture. It then describes a project to implement IBM Social Business technology including Lotus Notes, Quickr, and Connections to better connect employees, share knowledge, and enable mobile work across the large, remote organization. The implementation occurred in three phases over two and a half years and provided benefits like improved document sharing, communities for discussions, and a common interface for all employees.

The document discusses three possible scenarios for the world's future energy supply:
1) "Business as usual" reliance on fossil fuels which could lead to energy demands outpacing supplies after 2015 and increasing climate change impacts.
2) A "multi-energy solution" combining renewable, non-renewable and nuclear sources to ensure energy security and affordable supplies as demand rises.
3) "Energy conservation" decreasing energy usage through more efficient technologies and policies like carbon taxes to cut costs, emissions and improve security.
Lsn1whatisglobalisation
The document outlines the structure and content of an AS geography course. It is split into two units, with the first unit covering global challenges until Christmas and the second focusing on geographical investigations from January to May. Students are provided expectations and tips for the course, which involves attending every lesson, completing homework, and organizing notes with highlighting and folders. An example topic on globalization is then presented, with definitions and historical context of globalization discussed. Students are given tasks to help understand the concept of globalization and how it has impacted their own lives.
Lesson 6 Revelation Seminars Revelations Glorious Rapture
The document discusses the biblical rapture event where Jesus will return to gather believers. It notes that over 2,500 Bible verses reference this event and provides details on what it will be like based on passages in Revelation, Matthew, 1 Thessalonians and other books. Key points made include that Jesus will return visibly in the clouds, the dead will be resurrected, living believers will be caught up to meet Him, and He will remain in the air rather than come to earth immediately.

The document discusses how globalization creates winners and losers by comparing two contrasting countries, China and Gambia. It analyzes factors like natural resources, population size, investments, and economic policies that have enabled China to benefit from globalization, increasing its GDP per capita. Meanwhile, Gambia lacks resources, receives little foreign investment, and remains dependent on foreign aid, causing its GDP per capita to change little over time and for it to lose out to globalization forces.

Presentation from Professor Peter Kawalek of Manchester Business School at the TALK Innovation and Transformation event in London on October 14th, 2008.
Lesson8 where’s the prospect of new oil
The document discusses the debate around drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and exploiting Canada's tar sands. ANWR is seen as an important potential source of oil, but drilling is controversial. Arguments for drilling cite job creation and energy security, while arguments against point to potential environmental damage and the small overall oil yield. Exploiting tar sands is also controversial due to its large environmental impact from mining and refining operations. The document presents information on both sides of the debates to consider the tradeoffs around increasing energy production through these means.

It outlines the units that will be covered, including key topics like energy security, water conflicts, and biodiversity. It explains the assessment structure, including the requirements to receive an A* grade. Students are expected to complete independent research and homework assignments on time.
Lesson4 internationalorganisations
IGOs like the UN, NATO, IMF and World Bank allow powerful nations like the USA and EU to promote their interests on a global scale. While IGOs aim to foster cooperation, critics argue they are dominated by superpowers and promote their agendas. IGOs make key decisions influencing the global economy, conflicts, and environment, giving outsized influence to major donors. However, IGOs also help smaller nations and provided aid that rebuilt countries after WWII. Whether IGOs increase or decrease American power is debated, but they allow the USA to spread its ideology and priorities worldwide.
Lesson6 whoaretheplayersppt
The document discusses OPEC, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. It provides information on OPEC's 12 member countries, its aims to stabilize oil prices and ensure stable supply, and its role in coordinating production quotas in response to demand. As the world's largest oil producer, OPEC has significant influence over global oil prices and supply.
why is the world worried about ebola
This document discusses concerns about the Ebola outbreak in West Africa and ways to contain the spread of the disease. It addresses how Ebola spreads through contact with bodily fluids, symptoms of the virus, countries impacted, and numbers affected. The document also examines reasons containment has been difficult, including lack of healthcare infrastructure, cultural beliefs interfering with treatment, and uncoordinated international responses. Measures to limit spread are discussed, such as closing borders and roadblocks, as well as economic impacts on affected areas from the outbreak.
Lesson4the bri crise
Energy demand in China and India is projected to double by 2030, accounting for nearly half of the increase in global energy demand. Both countries are investing heavily in developing diverse energy sources like coal, oil, gas, nuclear, and renewables. However, China remains highly dependent on coal and a net importer of oil, raising energy security concerns given its growing reliance on foreign sources to fuel continued economic growth.
Lesson3 superpowers through time 2
The document discusses the changing nature of global superpowers over time. It explores how the United Kingdom maintained superpower status through colonialism and imperialism during the British Empire. It then analyzes the bi-polar world of the USA and USSR during the Cold War, where they used ideology and political/economic alliances to gain influence. The document also examines how the USA rose to superpower status in the 20th century and maintained it through factors like economic and military power. It analyzes some challenges to US dominance from growing powers and discusses neo-colonialism's role in perpetuating the peripheral status of countries like Ghana.
The stans
This document provides information about the "stan" countries of Central Asia, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. It discusses the meaning of the "-stan" suffix, lists the real and fake "stan" country names, and provides details about each real country's population, capital city, languages spoken, and other facts. Students are asked to identify the real countries, map them, and determine which is the most powerful based on selected economic and social indicators. The document promotes learning about these countries and tourism to them.

Exploiting the new wave of empowered online users
Oxjam is a month-long fundraising event organized by Oxfam that uses online social networks like Myspace to empower individuals to plan their own music events to raise money. Myspace was a good platform because it had a large existing user base in music and allowed organizers to connect, coordinate regional events, and promote their activities. The Oxjam campaign on Myspace was very successful at driving traffic to the main website and press coverage of local events, showing the potential of social networks for grassroots fundraising campaigns. However, it also presented challenges like losing some control over branding and ensuring the network remained engaged over the long term.
National Human Svc Assem
Techsoup is a global nonprofit that provides technology resources and knowledge to other nonprofits. It has created the Nonprofit Commons in the virtual world Second Life as a learning community for nonprofits, providing free virtual office space. The Commons has over 400 members from 60 countries.

Going forward, Techsoup aims to expand the Commons to connect more volunteers with nonprofits and experiment with diverse uses of virtual worlds.
The growth of drupal and the drop of closed source
The document discusses the growth of the open source content management system Drupal since its inception in 2001. It notes that Drupal originated from the DeanSpace and CivicSpace projects, which provided online platforms for Howard Dean's 2004 presidential campaign and later civic engagement projects. This raised Drupal's profile and established it as a platform for civic participation. The document then discusses how Drupal's usability, affordability, and philosophy posed a threat to commercial software, and traces how an industry developed around open source consulting and support. It highlights Drupal being adopted by high-profile clients like the White House, cementing its reputation. In conclusion, it predicts Drupal will continue expanding in civic, social and business spheres while staying true
