The document outlines eight goals for librarians to follow when conducting reference work: 1) Respect all patrons and do not discriminate, 2) Set priorities and handle requests in the order received, 3) Be thorough in search techniques and offer options for incomplete answers, 4) Consider both sides of controversial issues, 5) Set hours that mirror school hours, 6) Teach information gathering skills, 7) Remember users' rights as outlined in the Library Bill of Rights, and 8) Do not charge students for services that are already supported by taxes.
This is an assignment for my MLIS module on Information and Reference Services. We were given a question relating to finding Jonathan Swift pictures. My answer followed the set guidelines.
The document discusses reference transactions in libraries. It defines a reference transaction as an information contact where a library staff helps a patron meet their information needs by recommending, interpreting, or instructing the use of information resources. A typical reference transaction involves a patron question, a reference interview, searches by the librarian, evaluations of answers and searches, an answer, and follow up. It does not include general assistance but is focused on addressing specific information needs.
First section of this workshop; historical view laying the foundation for where library reference services are today to help us see where, potentially, we are headed.

Optimization of Cumulative Energy, Exergy Consumption and Environmental Life ...J. Agricultural Machinery
Ìý
Optimal use of resources, including energy, is one of the most important principles in modern and sustainable agricultural systems. Exergy analysis and life cycle assessment were used to study the efficient use of inputs, energy consumption reduction, and various environmental effects in the corn production system in Lorestan province, Iran. The required data were collected from farmers in Lorestan province using random sampling. The Cobb-Douglas equation and data envelopment analysis were utilized for modeling and optimizing cumulative energy and exergy consumption (CEnC and CExC) and devising strategies to mitigate the environmental impacts of corn production. The Cobb-Douglas equation results revealed that electricity, diesel fuel, and N-fertilizer were the major contributors to CExC in the corn production system. According to the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) results, the average efficiency of all farms in terms of CExC was 94.7% in the CCR model and 97.8% in the BCC model. Furthermore, the results indicated that there was excessive consumption of inputs, particularly potassium and phosphate fertilizers. By adopting more suitable methods based on DEA of efficient farmers, it was possible to save 6.47, 10.42, 7.40, 13.32, 31.29, 3.25, and 6.78% in the exergy consumption of diesel fuel, electricity, machinery, chemical fertilizers, biocides, seeds, and irrigation, respectively.
Gauges are a Pump's Best Friend - Troubleshooting and Operations - v.07Brian Gongol

No reputable doctor would try to conduct a basic physical exam without the help of a stethoscope. That's because the stethoscope is the best tool for gaining a basic "look" inside the key systems of the human body. Gauges perform a similar function for pumping systems, allowing technicians to "see" inside the pump without having to break anything open. Knowing what to do with the information gained takes practice and systemic thinking. This is a primer in how to do that.

Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any ch...dhanashree78

Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical or biological agent that modifies the natural characteristics of the atmosphere.
Household combustion devices, motor vehicles, industrial facilities and forest fires are common sources of air pollution. Pollutants of major public health concern include particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide. Outdoor and indoor air pollution cause respiratory and other diseases and are important sources of morbidity and mortality.
WHO data show that almost all of the global population (99%) breathe air that exceeds WHO guideline limits and contains high levels of pollutants, with low- and middle-income countries suffering from the highest exposures.
Air quality is closely linked to the earth’s climate and ecosystems globally. Many of the drivers of air pollution (i.e. combustion of fossil fuels) are also sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Policies to reduce air pollution, therefore, offer a win-win strategy for both climate and health, lowering the burden of disease attributable to air pollution, as well as contributing to the near- and long-term mitigation of climate change.
