Technological developments and the resulting user expectations have created the need for libraries to provide remote access to digital materials; similarly, the growth of online-only education has created the need for libraries to enable users to access their materials without having to go to the physical library. Diane M. Fulkerson's Remote Access Technologies for Library Collections: Tools fo...

This Food and Nutrition Information Center (FNIC) Resource List is a quick guide designed to help professionals find information related to the role of nutrition in learning and behavior in children. Opinions expressed in the publications do not necessarily reflect the views of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Materials which are part of the National Agricultural Library (NAL) collection hav...

Sample Courses and Course Materials in Agricultural Economics Supported in part by the National Science Foundation, the DLESE offers access to electronic materials in all aspects of earth science education, including agricultural economics, for both teachers and learners at all levels. Has searchable database with such materials as maps, images, online courses, field and lab activities, curricu...

One of the criteria for evaluating effectiveness library management is preservation materials. Based on these problems, it interesting to do research Trisakti University efforts in preserving A qualitative descriptive approach used conducting preserve materials at Trisaksi Library. The findings show that Library has implemented environmental control and kept environment clean library. As curati...

Quality of higher education is a multi-dimensional concept. It lies in effectiveness of transmitting knowledge and skill; the authenticity, content, coverage and depth of information; availability of reading/teaching materials; help in removing obstacles to learning; applicability of knowledge in solving the real life problems; fruitfulness of knowledge in personal and social domains; convergen...

Maintenance will be critical to digital libraries, especially those that promote broad access to diverse, informal materials. If ignored, maintenance issues within the digital library -especially those relating to its materials -will threaten its usefulness and even its long-term viability. We perceive the maintenance problem to be both technical and institutional, and this paper considers the ...

Internet Technologies allow us to connect virtual objects between them, by using their unique descriptors and identifiers. Mobile Technologies offer new opportunities for connecting the Reader/Visitor with Library Resources, Museum Materials and other Virtual Collections. We present an ongoing project in which we are connecting these materials in new services and open ways. We outline two parad...

An analogy between combinatorial chemistry and Monte Carlo computer simulation is pursued. Examples of how to design libraries for both materials discovery and protein molecular evolution are given. For materials discovery, the concept of library redesign, or the use previous experiments to guide the design of new experiments, is introduced. For molecular evolution, examples of how to use ``bia...
