This book explores ways in which libraries can reach new levels of service, quality, and efficiency while minimizing cost by collaborating in acquisitions. In consortial acquisitions, a number of libraries work together, usually in an existing library consortia, to leverage size to support acquisitions in each individual library. In cross-functional acquisitions, acquisitions collaborates to support other library functions. For the library acquisitions or technical services manager, or the library director, awareness of different options for effective consortial and cross-functional acquisitions allows for the optimization of staff and resources to reach goals. This work presents those options in the form of case studies, as well as useful analysis of the benefits and challenges of each. By supporting each other’s acquisitions services in a consortium, libraries leverage size to get better prices, and share systems and expertise to maximize resources while minimizing costs. Within libraries, the library acquisitions function can be combined with other library functions in a unit with more than one purpose, or acquisitions can develop a close working relationship with another unit to support their work. This book surveys practice at different libraries, and at different library consortia, and presents a detailed description and analysis of a variety of practices for how acquisitions units support each other within a consortium, and how they work with other library units, specifically collection management, cataloging, interlibrary loan, and the digital repository, in the form of case studies. A final sections of the book covers fundamentals of collaboration. This book is made open access as part of the Knowledge Unlatched KU Select 2018: HSS Frontlist Books

The contributors reassess the typology and history of various scholars, providing significant diachronic analysis of the different forms of communication, learning, and authority. While each chapter presents a separate regional case, with an historically and geographically different background, the volume discloses commonalities, similarities and intellectual echoes through its comparative approach.

Precarious Claims tells the human story behind the bureaucratic process of fighting for justice in the U.S. workplace. The global economy has fueled vast concentrations of wealth that have driven a demand for cheap and flexible labor. Workplace violations such as wage theft, unsafe work environments, and discrimination are widespread in low-wage industries such as restaurants, retail, hospitality, and domestic work, where jobs are often held by immigrants and other vulnerable workers. Despite the challenges they face, these workers do seek justice. Why and how do they come forward,and what happens once they do? Based on extensive fieldwork in Northern California, Shannon Gleeson investigates the array of gatekeepers with whom workers must negotiate in the labor standards enforcement bureaucracy and, ultimately, the limited reach of formal legal protections. Gleeson also tracks how workplace injustices—and the arduous process of contesting them—have long-term effects on their everyday lives. Workers sometimes win, but their chances are precarious at best.“Precarious Claims allows the reader to experience the difficulties in rights adjudication from the perspective of immigrant workers. Shannon Gleeson takes the reader through an explanation of the administrative system as it is supposed to work and the system as it actually works, and asks the questions that lawyers must learn to ask.” LETICIA SAUCEDO, Professor of Law, University of California, Davis“Through surveys and in-depth interviews with workers, community-based support organizations, and advocacy groups, Shannon Gleeson shows that the path to justice for many workers is often long, challenging, and inconclusive.” HECTOR R. CORDERO-GUZMAN,School of Public and International Affairs, Baruch College of the City University of New York“A must-read for those interested in how law and society interact in the struggle for justice among immigrant workers.” CATHERINE ALBISTON, Professor of Law andSociology, University of California BerkeleySHANNON GLEESON is Associate Professor of Labor Relations, Law, and History at the School of Industrial and Labor Relations, Cornell University.

Wer sich aus psychologischer Perspektive für Gefühle interessiert, findet eine Vielzahl ganz heterogener Entwürfe vor, die scheinbar beziehungslos nebeneinander stehen. Wovon also handelt die Wissenschaft, wenn sie sich mit Gefühlen beschäftigt? Um diese Frage zu beantworten, entwickelt Alexander Kochinka systematisch Kriterien, mit denen nicht nur der komplexe Forschungsgegenstand »Gefühl« selbst entfaltet, sondern auch der jeweilige theoretische Zugriff auf dieses Phänomen eingeordnet werden kann. Anschließend werden die Leser, auf diese Weise begrifflich und theoretisch sensibilisiert, mit den Emotionstheorien von Charles Darwin, Wilhelm Wundt und William James bekannt gemacht. Der genaue Blick auch in die Details enthüllt dabei, daß diese »Patriarchen der Psychologiegeschichte« eine ganze Menge mehr zu den Gefühlen zu sagen haben, als ihnen in der gegenwärtigen Debatte zugestanden wird.

Responsive website design has become a crucial component of modern web development, and investing in it is essential for businesses. Responsive design ensures that websites adapt seamlessly to different screen sizes and devices, providing users with an optimal viewing experience regardless of the device they’re using. Here are several reasons why responsive website design is a must and worth investing in: 1.Enhanced User Experience: With the proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices, users expect websites to be accessible and easy to navigate on any screen size. Responsive design ensures that websites load quickly, display properly, and remain functional across various devices, leading to improved user satisfaction and engagement. 2.Improved SEO Performance: Search engines like Google prioritize mobile-friendly websites in search results, making responsive design essential for improving search engine rankings. By providing a consistent user experience across devices, responsive websites are more likely to rank higher in search engine results pages (SERPs), driving more organic traffic to your site. 3.Cost-Efficiency: While investing in responsive web design may require an upfront investment, it ultimately saves businesses money in the long run. Rather than maintaining separate desktop and mobile versions of a website, responsive design streamlines the development process and reduces ongoing maintenance costs. 4.Future-Proofing: As new devices and screen sizes continue to emerge, responsive design ensures that websites remain adaptable and future-proof. By embracing responsive design principles, businesses can stay ahead of technological advancements and ensure that their websites remain relevant and functional for years to come. 5.Increased Conversion Rates: Responsive websites are optimized for usability and accessibility across devices, leading to higher conversion rates and improved business outcomes. Whether users are browsing on a desktop, smartphone, or tablet, responsive design ensures a seamless user experience, making it easier for visitors to engage with your content and take desired actions. In conclusion, responsive website design is not only a must but also a worthwhile investment for businesses of all sizes. By prioritizing responsive design, businesses can enhance user experience, improve SEO performance, reduce costs, future-proof their websites, and increase conversion rates, ultimately driving growth and success in an increasingly mobile-centric world. For businesses seeking to create a responsive website, partnering with a skilled Freelance web designer in Singapore is essential to ensure a seamless and effective design implementation.

Die Halbinsel Kola im Nordwesten Russlands stellte die sowjetische Verwaltung vor ein Energieproblem. Kola war zwar reich an Bodenschätzen, verfügte jedoch über keine fossilen Brennstoffe. Wie die Region mit Energie zu versorgen sei, war über Jahrzehnte ein Verhandlungsgegenstand. Sowjetische Botaniker forschten auf der Halbinsel Kola an einer arktistauglichen Kartoffel. Zur selben Zeit entstanden Wasserkraftwerke jenseits des Polarkreises; Kumpel förderten Kohle in gefrorenen Minen. Diese Bemühungen der 1930er Jahre verband ein Leitgedanke: Die Energieversorgung jeder sowjetischen Region sollte eigenständig sein. Nach 1945 wich diese Maxime vermehrt überregionalen Interdependenzen. Kola verband sich durch Hochspannungsleitungen, Brennstoffeinfuhr und internationale Kraftwerkprojekte immer stärker mit fernen Landschaften. Regionale Autarkie und gesamtstaatliche Verflechtung waren Grundgedanken sowjetischen Verwaltungshandelns, dessen Erbe nicht nur im Energiesektor bis heute nachwirkt.This book is made open access as part of the Knowledge Unlatched KU Open Services
