Wiki powerpoint
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.

University of Edinburgh Digital Library OJS at St Andrews OA week 2012
The document discusses Open Journal Systems (OJS), an open source journal management and publishing system developed by the Public Knowledge Project. It notes that as of June 2012, there were over 14,100 OJS journals worldwide. It then summarizes the University of Edinburgh's journal hosting service, which uses OJS to provide a platform for student and academic journals, offering training, support, and promoting visibility through registration with directories like DOAJ.
Discovering Library Collections
The document discusses the differences between traditional library practices and expectations of users on the modern web. It outlines two main traditions - libraries which focus on catalog records and controlled vocabulary, and the web which offers enriched data, recommendations, and familiar interfaces. However, users now expect to be guided simply to relevant information, attracted to engaging content, able to easily find information anywhere, and rewarded for their participation. Libraries must adapt to these new expectations by embracing practices like linked data, relevance ranking, mobile access, and social recommendations.

Multi Class Wiki
This document summarizes the features and benefits of wikis for educational use. Wikis allow for easy and instantaneous collaboration between multiple students on shared documents. They provide flexibility without a predetermined structure and allow for images, links, and videos. Various security levels can be set to make pages publicly viewable or only editable by registered users. Wikis provide an opportunity for Lutheran schools to connect and for students to build content in topics they find interesting. Potential downsides include security issues if students post inappropriate content and difficulty monitoring pages as the wiki grows larger. A sample rubric and student worksheet are also provided to help track individual student contributions.

Space Up Your Library : The Social Net Works!
Drawing the line further from where "Getting into the User Environment" stopped,
this presentation invites everybody to look more deeply into the use of social
networks (open or closed) by our users in general and focusses in particular on the
development of library services inside various types of social networks.What are the
benefits of making your medical library visible inside MySpace or Facebook?
And how do online personal startpage applications like iGoogle, Netvibes or
Pageflakes fit into this? The network (evolved by technology) is changing the users
behaviour and that will affect the future of information services.

Finding knowledge from digital library
This document outlines finding knowledge in digital libraries for nursing. It defines digital libraries and describes their advantages over traditional libraries. It discusses personal reference managers, library guides, and bibliographic databases useful for nursing research, including CINAHL, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and PsycINFO. The document describes embarking on a quest for knowledge through questioning practice, searching evidence, analyzing literature, applying findings, and evaluating outcomes. It also discusses challenges to adopting evidence-based nursing.
Open access resources
This document discusses open access resources and the open access movement. It begins by explaining that most research is publicly funded but published in expensive journals, making the results inaccessible to most. The open access movement aims to make all research findings available to society. It describes various definitions and initiatives to promote open access, such as allowing authors to self-archive works in institutional repositories and publish in open access journals. Examples are given of important open access resources and publishers like DOAJ, DOAB, PLOS, and BioMed Central. The conclusion states that open access maximizes the visibility and impact of research.
Your work, your rights? Open access in academia in the Netherlands (2012).
The document discusses open access (OA) publishing and copyright issues. It notes that OA aims to increase visibility and fairness of research while reducing costs. There are two main types of OA - gold OA journals which are fully open access, and green OA which involves self-archiving in repositories. Many funders now require or encourage OA publishing. While authors often sign over full copyright to journals, they can negotiate to retain some rights like archiving preprints. Students discussed their experiences with OA and suggested hosting workshops and talks to better inform their institution on OA publishing options and copyright issues.

The past few years have seen several new technological initiatives at Drexel University in interdisciplinary fields such as Nanomedicine, Engineering Cities, Drug Delivery, Plasma Medicine, Nanoscale Science and Technology, Microfluidics, and Bionanotechnology. These technological initiatives require faculty and students to work together in groups in a collaborative fashion. This has motivated librarians to experiment with new ways of reaching out to faculty and students. Drexel's emphasis on team based engineering design projects requires students to develop critical understanding of engineering subject areas. Developing awareness about the core electronic resources such as IEEE Xplore, Knovel, Web of Knowledge, Science Direct and Engineering Village is crucial in successfully undergoing research and completing assignments in their classes.
This presentation outlines innovative experiments using web 2.0 applications to increase information among faculty and students. Several web 2.0 tools such as Facebook, Friendfeed, Del.icio.us, Google Reader, Wikis, and blogs will be covered. Having engineering librarian's presence on Facebook is useful since many of the students are heavy Facebook users. Drexel's student Organizations such as IEEE and ASME are also on Facebook. Moreover, Drexel University's College of Engineering has recently launched its Facebook page where activities celebrating National Engineering Week have been quickly promoted among student. Drexel Engineering Information Awareness Campaign Group is a librarian-created Facebook group aimed at increasing awareness of new and existing resources among faculty and students. Feeds from Google Reader can be made automatically available on Facebook pages. For this to happen, a user needs to become ‘a friend’ with the engineering librarian on Facebook.
As faculty and students become more aware of new and existing information tools, the information skills learned during the process of exploring these resources will contribute to life-long learning among the engineering students.

ROLE OF LIBRARIAN IN HEALTH CARE INSTITUTIONS
Librarians play an increasingly important role in healthcare institutions by searching relevant literature for clinicians. While clinicians can research themselves using online databases, many lack the skills, time or access to consistently find the best evidence. When librarians assisted with searches, they were able to solve 84% of clinicians' requests by accessing medical databases and selecting the most appropriate literature. While online information is abundant, clinicians require training on effective search strategies and using the best evidence in practice to provide successful patient treatment.
KAKO JA BIRAM ČASOPIS U KOJI OBJAVLJUJEM NAUČNI RAD
The main goal of publication is to make the results of an investigation visible and accessible to as large an audience as possible. Thus a scientist contributes to the advance of science and to the advance of his/her carrier as well. The carrier of a scientist heavily depends on both quantity and quality of his/her publications. Although the quality is difficult to evaluate, the impact factor of the journal in which publication seems to be, in spite of some pitfalls, an adequate measure. Therefore, it is important to publish in journals covered by databases such as the Science Citation Index (SCI). Our Ministry of Science also relies on this scientometric parameter when evaluating the author’s impact; however, it does not value the publications in national journals, regardless their covering in other important databases such as PubMed/MEDLINE. Because of that, our authors hesitate to publish in such journals. Therefore, the submission rate of national journals is steadily decreasing, which makes these journals in peril to disappear from scientific publishing. Since some of these journals are of very long tradition, this would be a very unfortunate fate. Both our Ministry of science and editors should find the means how to attract the authors to publish quality science in national journals. This is the only way to include these journals in important databases, which should in due course raise the submission rate and consequently improve the impact of both the journals and their authors – the goal of each and every scientist and editor.

The Matica Srpska Library (MSL) – Reference Centre in Novi Sad and the University Library “Svetozar Markovic” in Belgrade do citation of papers of researchers on the territory of Serbia, for individuals as well as for institutions. MSL possesses the most complete collection of the Science Citation Indexes. For the natural sciences it has the printed edition (SCI Printed Edition) for the period 1945-1979 and compact disc edition (SCI CD) for the period 1980-2003. These two editions contain over 3,700 journal titles. On KoBSON site online database, Web of Science (SCI Expanded) has 6,700 journal titles for the period 2000-today. The project named “Citation Research of Scientific Workers of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina” was being done from 2005 to 2006. The research was done using the electronic database of the workers collected by the Provincial Secretariat for Science Technological Development which also financed the project.. Papers of 2,326 scientific workers from all scientific fields were searched, and 2004 was the last year. On the basis of these researches, all numerous data about citations and selfcitations are saved on a compact disc. From the Medical faculty (Novi Sad) 409 scientific workers were investigated, and the total number was 1,565 (1,473 citations and 152 selfcitations). Due to this project Reference Centre has all data about citation of papers for all the researches, and 2004 was the last year. This paper gives information about citation in Science Citation Index to users as well as the results of the citation of papers for the physicians of the Institute of Oncology in Sremska Kamenica.
NAČINI PRONALAŽENJA CITATA- CITIRANOST AUTORA I NJIHOVIH RADOVA
Assessment of citation-based research quality is an issue which has increasingly interested scientific and professional organizations, as well as the concerned Ministries of the Government of Serbia. Citation count is widely used in evaluating the importance and impact of the author’s work on other authors in the country and abroad. In order to find out how often their published papers have been cited, researches turn to citation tracking tools: abstracting and indexing databases, as well as other electronic sources of information. After citation data tracking, authors need to exclude the overlapping citations and summarize the total number of citations. This paper reviews the following options for citation tracking (both multiple authors and self-citations): Web of Science, Scopus, Scindex, SocioFact, Google Book, Google Scholar, and Google. There is, unfortunately, no easy way for citation tracking of non-electronic resources. That is why researchers also need to search printed publications, to find if their work was cited, or other authors need to inform them about citing their publications. Not all citations are equal: the top citations are presented and ranked in the Web of Science; it means that they were published in journals with an impact factor which are included in the ISI list. There are several types of citations, as well as different aspects and reasons for citation. One must not forget that, apart from citations, scientometry provides other criteria for assessing research quality, and they should be given a proper place in evaluation of research performance. In recent years, an increasing number of our authors have published their papers in journals with an impact factor. In this way, results of research in our country are available to the world, and the chance to find publications of authors from Serbia cited in the world’s leading citation databases is much higher.

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.
