Web 2.0 technologies like social networking sites are very popular among teenagers. The document discusses how libraries in West Lothian, Scotland are using these technologies, particularly Bebo, to engage with teenage patrons. It provides examples of two reading groups that created Bebo pages to communicate about meetings and share reviews of books. Teenagers reported that these pages made the groups more accessible and helped them remember meeting details. Libraries hope using technologies teens already use will make the spaces seem less formal and reinvigorate interest in reading.

Rabbi Kahn notes that while the warmth of families and food are important parts of Shabbat dinner programs, the intellectual depth of Judaism intrigues students the most. Students feel relaxed to ask questions in a non-judgmental atmosphere surrounded by like-minded Jews. They leave eager to continue conversations through the week in Torah study or by contacting the rabbis directly. Rabbi Garfinkel remarks that students know they can reach out to him about personal issues like breakups or telling parents about plans, and he will be available to talk through their questions and concerns.

The staff later planned a Doctor Who themed holiday party that was publicized through the Tumblr and was well-attended.

Teen Titles Presentation
The document proposes establishing a teen book review blog and podcast on the Yourtown Public Library website.

Libraries: Staying relevant in the Online Era
The document discusses how libraries can stay relevant in the online age by embracing social media and new technologies. It notes that youth are increasingly disengaging from traditional libraries and that librarians must join online conversations to remain a vital community resource. Case studies show how some libraries are using tools like blogging, Twitter, podcasting and collaborating with patrons to engage new audiences and help libraries stay current.
Navigating The Social Networking Landscape
Many librarians have joined the social networking universe by creating accounts for themselves and their libraries on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace.Linkedln, etc. But what happens when your town administrator connects with you on a site you mostly use for interacting with old high school friends? What is the protocol when a school librarian friends their students? How do you deal with a user who posts inappropriate photos on a library’s page? This presentation explores best practices for mixing your personal and professional lives on social networking sites, considers policies that can set guidelines for staff and patron/student use of these sites and discusses other ways to keep a comment we made on Facebook or MySpace off the front page of the local newspaper.

It notes that while kids are active online, they primarily interact with peers rather than adults.

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

It discusses various approaches taken by member institutions to provide access within the terms of licenses, including the use of Shibboleth, EZProxy, dedicated computers and IP ranges.Innovation with reducing budgets British Library
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.
