Community Centered Design
As the role of the library continues to shift and adapt to the needs of its users, it is important to understand what exactly those needs are. There are some common needs that libraries have traditionally met and for which their communities expect them to provide, such as free access to knowledge and books; however, the types of knowledge and books needed and the way they are accessed vary based on the community being served. I will introduce concepts of user-centered design and usability testing, which can be used to better understand our users and communities, as well as how implementing these concepts in my branch has helped cause a steady and consistent increase in usage for nearly every category of service we provide.

Ten Steps to Better Online Research - Introduction - 2017
The document discusses the importance of teaching information literacy skills to students. It argues that merely connecting schools to the internet and expecting students to know how to effectively search for and evaluate information is not sufficient. Information literacy must be systematically taught from a young age. The document outlines 10 steps to teach information literacy, including developing critical thinking habits, understanding how search engines and the internet work, planning research strategies, evaluating sources, and synthesizing information. It emphasizes teaching broad concepts and strategies over specific tools, with the goal of breaking the "culture of use" where students only know how to get surface level information from Google.

香港六合彩
你！你！你胡说什么？纳兰两颊绯红，顿时从床上跳了下来，相当恼怒，丝毫不理会卡蒙的苦心，要知道卡蒙可是从来都不关心别人的私事的，香港六合彩的朋友狄弥拉着香港六合彩讲风流史，香港六合彩可是基本上连耳朵都不带的，现在好不容易发了慈悲要倾听一个陌生女孩的心事，你竟然不领情？
哦！你还是个结巴！你身上问题怎么那么多？卡蒙一脸无辜，又发现一个新的问题。
你才是结巴！你才有孩子！可恶！纳兰已经冲出了门，把玻璃门帘狠狠的一摔，叮叮当当如同风铃在唱歌。
呵！脾气还这么大！卡蒙耸耸肩，树干似的倒在床上，心想占了香港六合彩的床，害香港六合彩一晚上都没睡，现在把美梦补上，但愿梦里不要有人谋害香港六合彩的孩子。
卡蒙无端发现自己怎么这么幽默了，嘴角一挑，难得会心一笑。
门帘再次唱起了歌，纳兰一脸尴尬的站在门口，道：香港六合彩忘了谢你帮香港六合彩，呃……还有抢了你的床。谢谢啊！睡着了？算了，反正香港六合彩礼貌到位了，是你没听见，不是香港六合彩不说。
门帘安静下来，卡蒙侧着身子，尖着声音学舌道：反正香港六合彩礼貌到位了，是你没听见，不是香港六合彩不说。身子一歪，平在床上发出了轻微的呼吸。
纳兰出了树林才看清这所独立的房子做得很特别，站在五米开外就无法发现这里有间木屋，屋子被绿色吞没，无法辨认到底是树丛还是灌木。这地方真好，出了竹林纳兰才想起竟然还不知道帮自己的人叫什么。香港六合彩竟然知道自己是女的。这人真怪！纳兰想起那人精明中露出的一点憨厚，竟然笑了起来，真傻！两个字脱口而出的时候，心里竟然偷笑起来。香港六合彩这是怎么了？

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
