The Christian Librarian

Forget the hoopla of New Years Day 2000; we know that January 1, 2001 actually marks the beginning of the 21" century. That fact notwithstanding, in this first issue of The Christian Librarian for the new millennium you will find a "business as usual" attitude. Perhaps that is because not all of the TCL team members share my mathematical insistence this is really the first month of the new millennium, but more likely it is because my colleagues are more concerned about the realities of Christian librarianship in the real world than they are in sophomoric niceties.

Librarians Across The Sea: Acl And Missions, Wilbur E. Cropley

The Christian Librarian

The Association of Christian Librarians (ACL) is missions-hearted, missions-minded, and missions-handled. This stance was vital to the founders. It is also vital for the calling and ministry of the present membership. We shall expand and illustrate these statements. The past, present development, and future will be covered.

Where Did They Come From? A Tribute To Shirley N. Wood, Jo Ann Rhodes

The Christian Librarian

The contributions of people like Shirley Wood, one of the founders of the Association of Christian Librarians, often go unnoticed due to the selflessness of their service. It is good to be reminded once in a while that what we take for granted in our 21st century library work was at one time the result of some former librarian's creativity. In the Christian library community, an individual's contributions are frequently done quietly, which is the way it should be if one wished to serve in the Scriptural way of not calling attention to oneself or one's service. Shirley Wood expended …

Bolivia Or Bust: Cila Memories, Dennis C. Tucker

The Christian Librarian

The first tentative talks about the possibility of a teaching mission to Bolivia began in June of 1998 at the annual conference of the Association of Christian Librarians. We had a semi-formal meeting to discuss the possibility at the 1999 annual conference-nearly a year before it would actually happen-at a meeting of the Commission for International Library Assistance (CILA), a ministry of the Association. The mission of CILA is to provide support for libraries in developing countries where there is a lack of formal training or financial resources. It does so by serving as an umbrella organization to coordinate requests …

Objectivity, Values, And The Christian Librarian, Steve Baker

The Christian Librarian

The central questions of Christian librarianship in the postmodern world involve the philosophical grounds of collection development. Are there reliable objective grounds for attempting to build balanced collections? What values ought to guide the librarian in this task? How will the application of those values differ in the context of an evangelical Christian institution?

The Y Factor, J. Ray Doerksen

The Christian Librarian

In my last column, I discussed the Sabbath in terms of its personal, physical and spiritual dimensions. In this column I want to examine its implications for corporate institutions such as Christian colleges and universities-and the libraries that serve them.

As you remember, there is physical significance-as well as spiritual-to the concept of Sabbath. God instituted a rhythm of work and rest. Probably all of us agree that periodic rest is a good thing for us as human beings. Does the same principle apply to corporate institutions, or does the fact that people only work five or six days in …

Determination And Catalytic Degradation Of Some Pesticides In Selected Agriculture Environment, Khalid Mutasim Al Magboul

Theses

Buprofezin [2-[(1, 1-dimethylethyl)imino]tetrahydro-3-(1-methylethyl)-5-phenyl-4H-1,3,5-thiadiazin-4-one] is a thiadiazine insect regulator and molting inhibitor that has a persistent larvicidal action against some Coleoptera and Hemiptera and effectively controls harmful insect pests including the brown rice planthopper Nilaparvata lugens and the greenhouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporaiorum. However, amitraz (IUPAC name: N-methylbis(2,4-xylyliminomethyl) amine belongs to the family of the triazapentadienes. It is a non-systemic acaricide and insecticide which has contact and respiratory action. Amitraz is active against a wide range of larvae and phytophagous insects. Its properties have long been known. Additionally, amitraz is often used against varroasis disease, caused by the mite Varroa Jacobsoni and …

Assessment Of Metals Pollution In Sediments Of The Coastal Area, U.A.E, By Nawal Mubarak Al Qubaisi

Theses

The present study aims at the quantifying and assessment of heavy metals concentrations and pollution in the offshore sediments, off Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah. Thirty three samples were collected and subjected to grain size analysis, organic carbon and total carbonate determinations, mineralogical analysis and heavy metals (leachable and residual phasis) determination.

The contents of organic carbon of the study areas vary within a wide range. The maximum was recorded at Abu Dhabi and the minimum at Dubai. There is a trend of increasing organic carbon with the decrease of grain size. In contrast to organic carbon, carbonate contents in …
