Making E-Reference Books Findable, Mohan Ramaswamy, Tara Baillargeon, Charlene N. Simser

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

The Internet has significantly changed the ways in which information is provided, particularly in libraries. Libraries are buying increasing numbers of electronic reference (e-Reference) materials which are buried in the catalog or on web pages, not to be easily found by the user. Unlike print reference books, e-Reference books are not found on libraries’ reference shelves and, therefore, are underused. Libraries face the dilemma of how to make e-Reference books more accessible to patrons. Kansas State University Libraries are addressing this challenge by using the powerful metadata behind OPAC records to create browsable e-Reference lists. These lists are also published …

Ethanol Byproduct Prices, Darrell R. Mark, Josie Waterbury

Cornhusker Economics

Ethanol production has been increasing exponentially in recent years. Production in 2007 was at approximately 7.5 billion gallons, and is projected to grow to over 11 billion gallons within the next couple of years (Renewable Fuels Association). Not only is this growing industry producing increasing amounts of ethanol fuel, but the quantity of ethanol byproducts is rapidly increasing as well. The Renewable Fuels Association estimates that more than 14.6 million metric tons of distillers grains were produced in 2007. As a byproduct of dry mill ethanol production, both dry distillers grains plus solubes (DDGS) and wet distillers grains plus solubes …

Implications Of Hypertext Theory For The Reading, Organization, And Retrieval Of Information, Megan Fitzgibbons

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Hypertext, the creation of links within or among texts in a digital environment, is the basis on which documents are transmitted electronically. This paper explores implications of hypertext theory for how users read, seek, and understand information. Hypertext does not necessarily change reading cognition, but its nodal structure affects readers' interactions with texts on a conceptual level. From a broader perspective, hypertext applications create and organize networks of literature that can be retrieved on a multiplicity of levels. Hypertext and its connecting properties allow 1) information seekers to accomplish their tasks in a digital environment, and 2) information professionals to …

Librarians And The Attention Economy, Karl Bridges

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

With the advent of Web 2.0, libraries began not only developing innovative technology, but also new economic paradigms for library services. The present economic situation for libraries is unsustainable. Libraries, as a practical matter, cannot pay attention to everything, to every node, to every leaf on the tree of knowledge. Through creation of multiple points of interaction with users the result is an increase in the level of attention paid by the user compared to the static nature of Web 1.0 technologies which were mostly passive in regards to the users.Web 2.0 also represents an attempt to deal with the …

Switchgrass Cost Of Production: Data From On-Farm Trial, 2001–2005, Richard K. Perrin, Kenneth P. Vogel, Marty R. Schmer, Robert B. Mitchell

Department of Agricultural Economics: Faculty Publications

Switchgrass is considered a potential commercial biomass feedstock but field scale production and production cost data have been limited. The costs of production incurred on ten commercial-sized fields in the northern Great Plains, between 2000 and 2005 have been reported in a scientific journal paper4. This report provides the detailed information, in English metric units, that was used to conduct the economic analyses. The average annualized cost to produce and store switchgrass on these farms was $60 per ton of dry matter, which translates to an ethanol feedstock cost of about $0.66-0.75 per gallon of ethanol, depending upon the ultimate …

Coming Distractions: Wolf Totem, Nicole Barnes

China Beat Blog: Archive 2008-2012

In just a few days, famed translator Howard Goldblatt’s latest book, Wolf Totem, will be released to eager readers of Chinese literature in English translation. Having proven his mettle as translator of Xiao Hong’s angsty prose and Mo Yan’s morbidly lascivious novels, Goldblatt has now tried his hand at a certain piece of nostalgic drivel that leaked from the pen of Jiang Rong, a newly acclaimed novelist whose original work, Lang Tuteng, appeared in 2004 after more than 30 years of labor and immediately shot to the top of the bestseller lists, selling two million bookstore copies and countless more …

Bridging The Information Divide Among Engineering College Libraries In Tamil Nadu, India: A Network Design, S. Sivaraj, S. Mohammed Esmail, M. Kanakaraj

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

The pattern of engineering education and research is changing in response to new methods, techniques, and applications of technology. Engineering colleges are in constant need of information about developments in science and technology. In today's environment, it is impossible for any library to stand alone. No library can singlehandedly obtain all the material that is needed or requested. Engineering libraries must share resources and organize cooperative services. Advances in information technology offer methods of networking and resource sharing among the geographically dispersed and remotely located library and information centres. This paper discusses ways that engineering colleges can share resources in …
