Academic Library Support Staff Competencies: What Should Support Staff Know and Be Able to Do?

Rachel Applegate is Assistant Professor at Indiana University School of Library and Information Science, Indianapolis; e-mail: [email protected] Over half of all non-student employees of academic libraries are support staff. What competencies should these workers possess? To what extent are these competencies similar across library departments and across library types—in what ways do they diff...

Academic and Research Staff

Our general objectives are concerned with the study of atomic and molecular processes and with the transport of charged particles in weakly ionized collision-dominated plasmas. During the past year our efforts in this field have been on a rather modest scale. The research that we have conducted was concerned with the effects of pipe turbulence on the electrical conductivity and on the diffusion...

In an earlier study Gruberg and Solish showed that salamander somatosensory spino-tectal fibers took the same course and ended in the same layer of the intermediate tectal neuropil as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT or serotonin) fibers as seen by Falck-Hillarp fluorescence. In order to determine whether the spino-tectal fibers are themselves serotonergic, we have carried out anatomical, biochemical,...

Crack Tip Constraint for Anisotropic Sheet Metal Plate Subjected to Mode-I Fracture

On the ground of manufacturing, sheet metal parts play a key role as they cover about half of the production processes. Sheet metals are commonly obtained from rolling and forming processes which causes misalignment of micro structure resulting obvious anisotropic characteristics and micro cracks. Presence of micro cracks poses serious attention, when stresses at the tip reach to the critical v...
