Extractions: Despite a little delay, yes, we're finally ready to get our characters moving . In this lesson we use the movie clips that we created earlier to animate hand gestures, arm movements, head movements, facial expressions, and mouth movements. Now that we've laid all the groundwork it's quite easy, and in just a little time you can have a simple animation completed. These lessons have taught us quite a few shortcuts to use that make Flash animation much simpler than frame-by-frame traditional animation, but by the end of this lesson you'll see, in your own end results, that you can't do everything by shortcuts. If you complete the lesson with the shortcuts alone, your animation will still be a bit jerky and ungainly. With a bit more effort and tweaking, and by doing a bit more frame-by-frame adjustment, however, you can practice and learn when it's best to put in the required effort for good results, and when you can fall back on the shortcuts.

Extractions: and Katie McDonough, Upcountry Consultants The Dunbarton Public Library would like to acknowledge the following individuals who served on the Library Vision Committee, the Visitation Committee and the Building Committee. Their insights and contributions contributed to the creation of a vision and working plan for the library. Lori Wamser, volunteer This plan has been developed using the Public Library Association (PLA) edition of Planning for Results: A Library Transformation Process. The process began when the director prepared a study entitled Assessment of Space Needs for the Dunbarton Public Library, September 2001. A space needs worksheet was completed during that year and a library growth analysis was formulated in the fall of 2002. A library trustee and librarian were members of the Building Committee and attended meetings during 2003 and 2004. During the summer of 2003, the Library Vision Committee, lead by the director, studied the current trends, challenges and future needs of both the town of Dunbarton and the Library, itself. A survey was designed, distributed and analyzed in the spring of 2004. Volunteers accompanied the director and library trustee as they visited area libraries during the summer of 2004 to view recent renovation projects.

Extractions: Contents (LibWire Home) Calendar Archives Winds Of Change This is a heady and frustrating time in the history of the academic library. Many things about our jobs, our workplace, and the way we relate to one another are changing so fast it has become hard to keep up. Every person has an opinion as to the positive and negative aspects of the ever-changing face of the academic library. What follows are the frank, passionate, and well-considered responses of three library employees (Wendy Blake, Robbie Giles, and Susan Heitstuman) to some, hopefully, broad-based questions on, among others, topics of change in the library, employee relationships, and the future of the library. - Mark Jacobs Wendy Blake is Library Technician II in the Technical Services Division at Holland Library and has ten years of library service. Robbie Giles is Reserves Technician for Holland Library and has ten years of library service. Susan Heitstuman is Library Specialist I in Collection Development for the Owen Science and Engineering Library and has thirteen years of library service. 1. What has been the most important and fundamental change in the way academic libraries serve their patrons?

Extractions: Libraries are the most likely place where one can find specific information in an easily accessible, physical location. The social nature of libraries as institutions where like-minded individuals gather and the strong social support that libraries traditionally receive from the general public have been factors in their on-going presence in society. Libraries are essentially democratic and the goal of a library is the improvement of society by helping the individual to understand himself or herself and the world as a whole.

Extractions: A Library and Nursing Department Web Partnership Pam Czaja Faculty and librarian collaborative partnerships have been a component of the academic experience for a number of years. Some well-known examples of collaboration include working with faculty to assess library collections in support of instructor and curriculum needs, instruction in the use of library materials to support class assignments, and creation of subject bibliographies to support course content. These library services were initially created in an era when printed materials were the primary source for information. The subsequent introduction of information on CD-ROM, development of the internet, and proliferation of commercial online article databases has provided new opportunities for librarians and teaching faculty to work together to incorporate these electronic resources into library services. At Monroe Community College (MCC), the continuing growth of the web and MCC's strong presence in distance learning have facilitated a number of opportunities for collaborative partnerships between librarians, individual faculty members, and academic departments. Examples of projects include the Nursing Web Links site, creation of web pages to support the syllabi of both on-campus and online courses, and assisting faculty in the design of assignments for distance learning students.

Since their beginning, public libraries have been serving all community constituents. Libraries serving both schools and the public have been with us for decades. These endeavors have generally been straightforward in nature and meaning. The decision to engage in a joint-use library partnership is made for a number of reasons, including economies of scale, cost savings, efficiencies, greater depth/breadth in the collection, and improved services. Joint-use libraries can realize more via collective efforts than they can through independent efforts. The quality and quantity of services, for example, can increase dramatically for both constituents. Two entities can build a larger library than a single entity can. Evolving technology is providing fodder for the case for more joint-use libraries. Shared databases, computing labs, multimedia centers, teaching/learning and literacy classrooms, and compressed video centers are examples of components that can be shared in a joint-use academicpublic library. The days are over when any library can lay claim to having its own crown jewels. The emphasis has to be more focused on improving services, rather than boasting about a librarys inventory count. Sharing a single library between two or more entities certainly makes good sense, particularly when one considers how best to offer more and better services for the users.

Extractions: and the University Community Professionals' Fair Use of Journal Articles for Scholarship, Reference and Research Note: This article was written in 1993. The case it discusses was appealed to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals which issued a decision on October 28, 1994 affirming the lower court's opinion though for slightly different reasons. Please refer to Professional Fair Use after Texaco for updated information in light of the Second Circuit's opinion. Professionals must keep abreast of an astonishing amount of literature in order to pursue their research properly, to publish, and to perform their duties successfully. Most professionals work in settings where they must share access to journals and periodicals with other professionals either by placing themselves on distribution lists or by reading journals in the library. Only a few of these articles will be of such nature that the reader might want to recall some of the ideas expressed in them at a later time while performing research, laboratory work, or pursuing other similar activities. Thus, occasionally the reader will request the librarian to make a copy for future reference. The reasons for this request may include, in addition to the fact that the journals need to continue to circulate or otherwise be available to others; the fact that only pertinent articles appropriately indexed or filed, not whole journals, can be kept in personal files; that many professionals prefer to make marginal notes on the copies; that the articles must sometimes be read later as time permits; and that errors that might otherwise occur in preserving the expressed ideas by note-taking or reliance on memories can be avoided by photocopying.

Extractions: The application layer of the hybrid multplatform test system architecture is composed of individualized, modular test programs that perform specific functions such as a digital multimeter measurement or a power spectrum. When choosing an application development environment (ADE) to create test programs, consider various factors including whether the ADE provides an open architecture, is flexible, and delivers platform independence. When creating test programs, build modular test code and avoid direct ATE bus-level calls within the tests to simplify instrument replacement. Take advantage of the ADEs available, use existing code for some tests, and create additional programs using newer ADEs. Download the Presentation Files
Extractions: This presentation focuses on the system management layer of the hybrid multiplatform test system architecture; the system management layer provides a framework to manage the whole test system and increases productivity, maximizes longevity, and simplifies the integration of new components. Use this layer to call modular test programs written in any application development environment and pass data and variables between these test programs. This layer should include tools to manage the various system user privileges, log results to databases, and generate reports. Download the Presentation Files
