Joseph Plateau invented the phenakistoscope in 1832, creating the illusion of movement using a spinning disk with drawings of incremental changes. William Horner then created the zoetrope in 1834, improving on Plateau's design by allowing multiple viewers and not requiring a mirror. Emile Muybridge pioneered stop motion photography in the 1870s, inspiring scientists like Edison and Marey. Edison then invented the kinetoscope in the late 1880s, allowing moving images to be viewed individually through a viewer. The Lumiere brothers created the cinematographe in 1895, which could both film and project movies, making motion pictures available to mass audiences.

The document discusses the tensions between academic libraries' missions of preserving knowledge for future generations and serving the current needs of students and faculty. It notes that libraries are moving away from primarily permanent collections towards more temporary access models using leasing and subscriptions. A potential future model is outlined where libraries focus on immediate access to all relevant content through various temporary means while ensuring future access through initiatives like print archiving. This broader temporary collection approach could fulfill both the preservation and access missions if issues like ensuring access to out-of-print titles are addressed.

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.

Uniqueness and Collection Overlap in Academic Libraries
1. Uniqueness and Collection
Overlap in Academic Libraries
Charleston Conference
November 6, 2009
Michael Levine-Clark
Sara Holladay
Margaret M. Jobe
2. Introduction
• Are academic libraries building diverse
collections?
• Using automated tools such as Spectra
Dimension we can:
– compare uniqueness of holdings in pre-established
consortia vs. unconnected groupings
of similar schools
– analyze percentage of uniqueness in a subject-based
analysis
3. Brief Literature Review: Unique
Titles and Duplication
• 72 ARL Libraries - Perrault (1995)
– Decline in the acquisitions rate for new imprints, 1985-
1989
– Decrease in the number of unique titles
– Increased concentration of core materials
– Conclusion: collective resource base of research libraries in
decline
4. Brief Literature Review Cont.
• Triangle Research Libraries Network - Armstrong &
Nardini (2000)
– 50 year history of cooperative collection building
– 89% of titles held by two or more libraries
– Duplication generally not caused by approval plans
• OhioLink - Kairis (2003)
– High level of duplication in the Central Catalog.
• Academic Libraries- Nardini et al (1996)
– Greater collection overlap in larger libraries.
– Significant collection overlap in history.
5. The Data
• Spectra Dimension
– Holdings and Use Data for 45 libraries
• Monographs
• Start date of 1999
• End date varies (2006-2008)
• Data from existing consortia compared to groups of
similar libraries

30. Conclusion
• Consortial agreements do not seem to lead to
decreased overlap.
• Larger libraries duplicate each other more than do
smaller libraries.
31. Future directions
• Detailed subject analysis.
• Comparative analysis of use.
• Survey of libraries contributing holdings
information to Spectra Dimension about
collection development patterns.
• Overview of local programs/curricula.
