Effects Of Library Instruction On University Students' Satisfaction With The Library: A Longitudinal Study, Anthony Stamatoplos, Robert Mackoy

USF St. Petersburg Campus Faculty Publications

Consideration of satisfaction should be an important part of the evaluation of library services. Satisfaction depends, to some extent, on patron expectations of services. This study evaluated changes in student expectations following library instruction and how they were related to overall, long-term satisfaction with the library. Satisfaction appeared to be related to student perceptions of information accessibility, staff competence and helpfulness, computer usefulness and ease of use, and skill level for using libraries. The study suggests that libraries may be well served by measuring patron satisfaction and learning what variables drive satisfaction at particular libraries.

Public Transit, Public Trust : A Performance Review Of The Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority, Texas Performance Review (Agency), Texas Comptroller's Office

Documents from the State of Texas-Archive

The authority's wealth, however, has seemed to engender a dangerous laxity in the fiscal policies of past board members and managers, and a tendency ignore the needs and expectations of its customers and owners -the taxpayers.This lack of cost-consciorisness has resulted in expensive consulting studies that sit on shelves, ignored and unused; failed projects that produce little for the- authority or its customers; and a general absence of budgetary restraint and common-sense accountabiiity. This-laxity has been encouraged, as documented in dozens of past studies and news articles, by the fact that Capital Metro has never enjoyed stable leadership. Its legacy, …

Natural History Of A Saline Mound Ecosystem, Robert R. Blank, James A. Young, James D. Trent, Debra E. Palmquist

Great Basin Naturalist

Along the margins of playas in northwestern Nevada, a salt-tolerant plant community occupies mounds that dot a largely unvegetated landscape. In this environment we studied soil development and plant-soil relationships. The mounds, averaging 0.3 m in height, are occupied by the shrubs Allenrolfea occidentalis (iodine bush), Sacrobatus vermiculatus (black greasewood), and Atriplex lentiformis spp. torreyi (Torrey saltbush). Distichlis spicata (desert saltgrass) is the only herbaceous plant occupying this community. Soil salinity decreases with depth in this environment, and content of aqueous-extractable solutes is significantly influenced by site-specific vegetation. Content of silt, clay, and salt in mound surface horizons suggests a …

Throwing Like A Girl: Constitutional Implications Of Title Ix Regarding Gender Discrimination In High School Athletic Programs, Tracy J. Johnson

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This comment examines various approaches to dealing with sexual discrimination in high school sports. The decisions reveal that equal protection under the law is violated if the classification between males and females in connection with team sports is based on stereotypic notions or assumptions. The author suggests that rules which automatically exclude all females from competing with the males for a place on a team violate equal protection and impair the important governmental objective of providing full and equal opportunity to educational programs and activities. Finally, this comment stresses that in order to provide meaningful athletic opportunities to young women, …

Understanding Congressional Reform: Lessons From The Seventies, Rafael Gely, Asghar Zardkoohi

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this article is to examine voting behavior of representatives when faced with dual constraints (constituents back home and the leadership) as compared to one constraint (constituents back home). An ambitious goal of the study would have been to examine the effects of both sets of reforms. However, there are two reasons for not using the 1995 reforms in our empirical examinations. First, not enough time has passed to fully observe the effect of term limits on voting behavior. Second, and more importantly, the leadership, whose power it was to impose a constraint on a representative's promotional opportunities, …

The Reality Of Bytes: Regulating Economic Activity In The Age Of The Internet, Michael A. Geist

Washington Law Review

By utilizing both a backward and forward looking perspective, this Article develops a model conducive to better understand the Internet's legal implications on economic regulation. The model is also intended to help legislators and regulators adapt their legal and regulatory frameworks to the Internet. This Article canvasses and builds upon the burgeoning development of Internet law. It suggests that the Internet's impact on economic regulation is best understood by classifying its effects into four categories, each of which requires a different regulatory response. It also considers potential solutions for adapting economic regulation to the Internet. This Article concludes that no …
