TALENT MANAGEMENT-BASED STATE CIVIL APPARATUS CAREER DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Firdausijah R. Taqwaty
Published: July 2023

Civil servant career development through talent management is an entity that is prioritized by the government. Talent management is a strategic approach to identifying, developing, and retaining individuals with exceptional potential and performance for critical organizational positions. The purpose of this study is to investigate and describe talent management-based state civil apparatus (ASN) career development in the context of a contemporary public service system. This study employs a qualitative approach and descriptive methodologies. The study's findings indicate that the Implementation of Talent Management adheres to the merit system's objective, planned, transparent, timely, accountable, political intervention-free, and KKN-free principles. Talent development in ASN is carried out through three main approaches: career acceleration, competency development, and qualification improvement. Although talent management-based ASN career development sounds good, there are several inhibiting factors that need to be addressed, such as leadership commitment and less than optimal follow-up assessments. It takes strong leadership commitment and policies in implementing a merit system and proper follow-up on ASN assessment results so ASN career development can run well.

The correlation between vitamin D levels and inflammation, as well as the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), in people who are over the age of 60.
Authors: Arslan Nurg , Yaprak B
Published: July 2023

Aim: Elderly populations often have insufficient vitamin D (vit-D), which may contribute to autoimmune diseases and inflammation. Few studies have examined vit-D levels and immune function in humans. The study looked at vit-D levels and inflammatory markers in older adults.
Material and Methods: Retrospective research was done. The hospital's records were searched for the study's data. Participants were 65-year-olds who applied to the internal medicine outpatient clinic between May 2020 and May 2022. Each person's vit-D, CRP, Lymphocyte/Monocyte, Neutrophil/Lymphocyte, Platelet/Lymphocyte, Ferritin, and Prognostic nutritional index (PNI) levels were measured.
Results: The information from 2118 patients was analyzed as part of the study. Of those patients, 324 met the requirements for participation in the research, and the participants' average age was 73.21 years, with a standard deviation of 5.24 years. The average level of vit-D found in people was 14.18 nmol/L, with a standard deviation of 6.14 nmol/L. It was discovered that there was a negative correlation that was statistically significant between the individuals' levels of vit-D and the ratio of CRP to MPV (p less than 0.05). Vit-D and PNI were found to have a correlation of r=0.205, which was found to be positive and significant (p <0.05). Every 0.721-unit increase in PNI will result in an additional 1 unit of 25(OH) vit-D. It was found that the CRP (mg/L) variable contributed significantly to the model, and it was discovered that the presence of 1 unit of 25(OH) vit-D was increased for every 0.202 unit decrease (p <0.05).
Conclusion: Insufficient vitamin 25(OH)D is found in the elderly population. 25(OH) vit-D has a negative relationship with CRP (mg/L) and MPV (fL), but a positive relationship with PNI, an indicator of nutritional status. The study suggests that if an elderly person is disabled, nutritional supplements should be provided.
Retrospective Evaluation of Complications in Patients Who Underwent Breast Reduction Surgery without Drains: No Drain, No Pain!
Authors: Demir Ahmet
Published: July 2023

Aim: In women, breast reduction surgery is performed due to macromastia, i.e., excessive breast size, regardless of age, and is the most effective method for eliminating problems such as dermatitis and malodor under breasts, as well as pain in the musculoskeletal system. Breast reduction surgery is a frequently performed and relatively safe procedure to defer above mentioned symptoms of patients. To contribute the establishment of standards that will ensure maximum patient comfort and minimum complications risk in the follow-up of breast reduction surgery is the main output of this study. For that reason, complications and their associations in this patient group has been compared with the previous studies.
Material and Methods: Demographic and surgical record of all women who underwent bilateral breast reduction surgery without liposuction performed by the same surgeon without the use of drains were evaluated retrospectively. Approval of the local ethics committee has been received prior of the study (decision number 10/24). Hence, types of complications and their percentages, statistics related to their age and patients’ surgical measurements has been analyzed statistically.
Results: Breast reduction surgery was performed with the superomedial pedicle technique in 22 of the patients and the free nipple graft technique in 9. Early complications were seen in three (1.82%) of the total of 62 breasts that were operated on. There was no statistical correlation between the amount of reduction or nipple elevation level with complications.
Conclusion: The use of no drains in breast reduction surgery did not increase postoperative complications when compared to literature, and it also provided a more comfortable follow-up process for both the patient and the surgeon.

Published: July 2023

Objective: This study aims to investigate the smoking status of teachers, the relationship between smoking and COPD, and teachers' awareness of COPD.
Material and Method: 504 teachers participated in this cross-sectional study. The data was obtained through an online questionnaire utilizing a 22-question form designed by the researchers.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 38.677.70 years, 47.8% of them were female, and 81.5% worked in public schools. 28% of teachers reported smoking. 24.4% of teachers reported living with a COPD patient, with 86.5% citing smoking as the major risk factor for COPD. 88.3% of participants indicated that avoiding tobacco products is crucial in preventing COPD. The majority of participants (92.7%) provided the correct response when asked about the symptoms of COPD. While 67.7% responded that PFT is used for diagnosis, 50.6% reported that it is a treatable disease, and 25% reported that inhaler medicines are used for treatment. There was a statistically significant distinction between the frequency of hearing about COPD and the specialties of the teachers. It was shown that 91.1% of smokers were aware of COPD, however, no statistical correlation was found between smoking and awareness.
Conclusion: This study revealed that the prevalence of smoking among teachers in Sanliurfa was lower than previously reported in the literature. The level of awareness that COPD is a lung disease was found to be higher than in previous studies of a similar sort. It was established that awareness of the risk factors for COPD, its symptoms, preventive strategies, and the fact that COPD is a treatable disease was high. We believe that this awareness will play a crucial role in protecting students from smoking and various smoking-related diseases, such as COPD.

Published: July 2023

Objective: The present study aimed to examine possible relationships between suicide-related terms obtained from Google Trends and actual suicide data and whether these relationships differ according to sex.
Materials and Methods: The study period was from 2009 to 2019. In this study, suicide data were collected from the suicide statistics of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) for this timeframe. Google Trends was used to examine the search trends of suicide-related terms in Turkey. Pearson correlation analysis was used to find associations between the data obtained from TUIK and Google Trends. Finally, linear regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of monthly completed suicide rates in the general population.
Results: In our study, 105 search terms obtained from Google Trends were examined to find associations with suicide rates in a specific timeframe. Among them, 31 terms had positive correlations, and nine had significant negative correlations. The terms "allergy" and "pain" were the most closely related to the overall suicide rates. Other significantly correlated terms were "how to commit suicide," "to commit suicide," "depression," and "hallucination." In addition, significantly different results were found for men and women.
Conclusion: The present study showed that suicide-related terms obtained from Google Trends may predict actual suicide rates and may be an easy way to monitor suicide trends in Turkey. Future studies should use a more comprehensive internet network, including social media and other search engines, and consider other variables related to suicide to better understand this relationship.

Authors: Yurekli Ugur , Akkus Muhammet , Kirmit Adnan
Published: July 2023

Objectives: Psoriasis is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the skin and small joints that causes serious deterioration in quality of life. Inflammation, angiogenesis and fibrosis plays a significant role in the disease pathogenesis. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) is a vigorous mitogenic agent and a molecule associated with pathways that are effective in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the level of patients with FGF2 in the serum of psoriasis and to determine the change in the level of this molecule according to the severity of the disease.
Materials and Methods: 96 patients of psoriasis and 100 healthful were included in this study. The level of FGF2 was measured by ELISA method from serum samples obtained from blood samples taken from those included in the study. The results were compared with the healthful control group. Patients of psoriasis were grouped as mild, moderate, severe and very severe. FGF2 levels were compared in patients grouped according to disease severity.
Results: Serum FGF2 levels were found to be higher in psoriasis patients compared to the healthful control group (p<0.0001). When psoriasis patients were checked against the healthy control group according to the severity of the disease, serum FGF2 levels were found to increase in the moderate, severe and very severe patient group (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Elevated serum FGF2 level in psoriasis patients was revealed for the first time. As the severity of the disease increases, the increase in the serum FGF2 level shows that this molecule may be effective in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and may be the target molecule in treatment.

Authors: rk Erc , l Sencer , rk Zeynel
Published: July 2023

Aims: Our aim was to investigate the relationship between common geriatric syndromes and depression.
Methods: 515 patients over 65 years old admitted to a university hospital participated in this cross-sectional study. The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the European Quality of Life (EQ-5D), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were administered to the participants in addition to the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) was used to assess depressive symptoms in persons 65 years and older.
Results: The mean age of the participants was 72.26.3 years, and 133 (24.8%) of them scored high on the GDS for depression. The non-depressed group had lower rates of sarcopenia, fewer medications, lower BAI and PSQI scores, and higher EQ-5D and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scores. Correlation analysis showed that the GDS score was moderately positively associated with the number of medications (r = 0.351, p = <0.001), the BAI score (r = 0.638, p = <0.001), and moderately negatively associated with the IADL score (r = -0.355, p = <0.001) and the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) score (r = -0.316, p = <0.001). After multivariate logistic regression analysis, IADL, MNA, and BAI scores were independently associated with depression (p = 0.026, OR = 0.72, p = 0.026, OR = 0.94, and p = <0.001, OR = 1.11, respectively).
Conclusions: Interventions aimed at alleviating depressive symptoms may be an effective strategy for preventing the adverse consequences of depression that lead to deterioration in quality of life. Therefore, focusing on factors that are independently associated with depression, such as dependency in activities of daily living, anxiety symptoms, and poor nutritional status, may be a useful method in the management of older patients with depression.

Authors: vrak aybars , ulusoy ibrahim
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Background
A ganglion cyst is the most common benign mass on the wrist. They are frequently seen on the dorsal aspect of the wrist. These lesions, which show symptoms such as pain and limitation of movement, can become restrictive in daily life activities. Surgical methods are accepted as the gold standard in treating this lesion, with a wide range of treatment options. In our study, two new surgical methods were described for the open resection of wrist dorsal ganglion cysts, which were not previously described in the literature. Three surgical methods were compared in open surgery for wrist dorsal ganglion cysts.

Materials and Methods
Our study divided 180 patients with three different surgical methods into three groups. The functional results of the patients were evaluated with VAS and DASH scores at the 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 12th months. Comparisons were made in terms of developing complications and recurrence rates.

Results
As a result of the evaluation, it was found that the functional outcomes, recurrence, and complication rates of all three surgical methods were similar.

Conclusions
Considering that the results of 2 different surgical methods not described before are similar to those in the literature, the surgical techniques we described can be safely used in wrist dorsal ganglion cyst surgery.

Objective: Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a soft tissue malignancy that is typically seen as large mass lesions found incidentally on imaging. This study aimed to examine patients in light of clinicopathologic data and to investigate the reasons affecting recurrence and survival.
Material and Methods: A total of 32 patients with pathologically proven primary retroperitoneal liposarcoma who were treated between January 2011 and December 2021 were analyzed.
Results: Thirty-two patients underwent surgery and all were treated with R0 resection. Recurrence was experienced by 12 (37.5%) patients and a further nine (28%) died during follow-up. The pathologic subtype of the tumor and the presence of fragmented specimens were found to be statistically significant with recurrence. Mortality was found to be high with 50% in patients with recurrence (p=0.049).
Conclusions: Fragmented resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma specimens is related to recurrence. The pathologic subtype of the tumor is significantly related to recurrence and overall survival. Additional chemotherapy or radiotherapy had no significant effect on recurrence or overall survival.

Published: July 2023

Education is important in achieving full potential of a human being. Universal high-quality education is the best way forward for developing a country’s rich talent and resources. Education is a great leveler and is the best tool in achieving social mobility and equality. Adolescence is a transition stage of physical and psychological development that generally occurs between the period of puberty and adulthood. In this phase an individual generally finds it difficult to cope with their emotions and the myriad of changes that is happening with them. Hence, Emotional Intelligence, which is the ability of an individual to manage their own emotions in positive way to relieve stress, overcome day to day challenges and defuse conflict, is very important for one’s development. Several studies conducted have shown that there is considerable difference in emotional competency of Rural and Urban students. These studies suggest that students from rural background are more susceptible to emotional disturbances that lead to Negative emotions. The NEP 2020 aims to provide all students Quality education with primary focus on marginalized, under-represented groups of the society, irrespective of their place of residence. It is important to study the development of the Emotional intelligence/Competency in Rural adolescent through Inclusive education and Sustainable development for Holistic growth and development of the rural adolescents. This paper is a review article that aims to highlight the research gap that only focuses on the fact that rural adolescent has poor emotional intelligence but there is no work as to how the rural adolescent can be moulded to have better emotional intelligence. Hence, this paper is a humble attempt in that direction.

Published: July 2023

Controlling drug release using a nanocomposite method is crucial; however, burst release must be avoided in order to obtain effective controllable drug release. In this study, poly(vinyl) alcohol/polyoxalate/Span-80 (PVA/ POX/ Span-80) composite nanofibers loaded with Rhodamine B were produced using emulsion electrospinning. The objective of this work was to evaluate the cooperative roles of POX and Span-80 on nanofibrous scaffold stability and drug release regulation by monitoring Rhodamine B release performance from electrospun composite nanofibers. The microstructure and hydrophilic properties of the emulsion electrospun nanofibers were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact angle, and swelling tests. According to the results, increasing the POX content had a significant effect on the size of nanofibers. The water contact angles increased as the POX content increased. The release of Rhodamine B was governed by a two-stage diffusion mechanism that was greatly influenced by PVA/POX ratios and Span-80. To compare release behavior, non-emulsion electrospun nanofibers without Span-80 were prepared as control samples. Emulsion nanofibers were found to release at a slower rate than non-emulsion nanofibers. The in vitro release profiles revealed that Rhodamine B was released from emulsion electrospun fibers in a sustainable manner and that no initial burst release was observed. These findings imply that emulsion electrospun nanofibers can potentially be used to deliver drugs, nutraceuticals, and fragrances in a prolonged manner
Application of transmission photoelasticity in visualizing fluid-structure interactions
Authors: Etter E. , Mulleners K. , Ayancik F.
Published: July 2023

Photoelasticity is a stress analysis technique based on the principle that some materials act as waveplates when stressed. In this study, transmission photoelasticity is used as a novel optical technique to capture flow information. A bio-inspired structure is designed comprising a whisker-like shaft inserted into a sensing base made of photoelastic material. When the whisker-inspired structure encounters a flow stimulus, it deflects and generates a high bending stress in the sensing base that is transduced into a fringe pattern that correlates with the flow stimulus. The pattern is observed using a circular polariscope and is then linked to the flow stimulus encountered by the structure. The results show that this optical method can be employed to link a specific fringe pattern with the corresponding free stream velocity with a global accuracy of 85.7%. Also, this technique is able to detect an obstacle upstream of the bio-inspired structure. Transmission photoelasticity could help design flow sensing devices.
Wake Patterns Around Front Tyre And Wheel On Vehicle Dynamics Clarified By On-Board PIV Application
Authors: Kuratani N. , Kawamura T. , Ambo K.
Published: July 2023

Temporal and spatial wake patterns and behaviors around rotating tires and wheels are some of the most critical flow phenomena on aerodynamic performance and vehicle dynamics. In particular, aerodynamic drag is one of the most important factors on greenhouse effect gas and fuel efficiencies, in these days remarkably focused on the shift from conventional fossil fuel power plants to electric ones to prevent the global warming. From the point of view of aerodynamics, OEMs' wind tunnel facilities with moving ground and high fidelity CFD tools are employed to optimize the exterior body shape and aerodynamic device in order to reduce the aerodynamic drag. Recently, high fidelity CFD tools which include tire rotations are easily employed by users, not only specialists, to analyze the flow around the vehicle and to optimize the exterior design at the development phase. However, more accurate and detailed understanding of complicated flow phenomena around vehicle during motion are required to predict these flow phenomena accurately by CFD tools at early development phase. Moreover, the more detailed experimental investigation is essential for the aerodynamicists, not only to develop the prediction tool but also to understand the flow phenomena around vehicle in its essence. Therefore, in this study, the on-board 2D-3C PIV measurement system in wind tunnel facility has been developed to investigate the wake patterns around rotating front tire and wheel. As result, the critical wake patterns have been clarified by POD analysis of the mentioned on-board 2D-3C PIV measurement data. These front wheelhouse wake patterns were classified in terms of the wake generation locations that produced the aerodynamic drag. These results indicate that there is the potential for an improvement in not only aerodynamic drag and but also vehicle dynamics by flow control to suppress the wake generations around front wheelhouse and the flow fluctuation around bodyside, moreover, this system can be applied to real world running condition in near future.

Air pollution is a crucial issue since it is one of the major causes for worldwide deaths. Car drivers and passengers are daily exposed to high level of pollutant concentrations. The particles emitted from the tailpipe can disperse in the wake of the vehicle and then infiltrate the following car c abin. It has been demonstrated that the dynamics of such particles are highly affected by the properties of the flow downstream the emitting vehicle. In the present paper, the flow characterization in the wake of a simplified car model followed by a second vehicle is performed. Reduced-scaled Ahmed bodies are used. The upstream velocity is set to U∞ = 14.3 m/s, corresponding to a Reynolds number based on the simplified model’s height ( hc = 54 mm) of Re = 49500. Two leading vehicles with two different rear slant angles (φ = 0°, 25°) are considered. Two sets of experiments are carried out, one in the wind tunnel at ESTACA and the other in the wind tunnel at CORIA’lab. In the first measurement campaign, 2D LDV is used and six inter-vehicle distances ranging from d = 0.93 hc to 5.56 hc are considered and presented. The ITTT (Interarrival Time and Transit Time) method is applied to LDV data in order to ensure reliable results. Mean and turbulent properties of the wake between the two vehicles are described. The role of the rear slant angle is highlighted. A critical distance above which the followed vehicle has an insignificant influence on the flow topology downstream of the leading vehicle is identified. For further details, and taking into consideration the first results (from LDV measurements), Stereo-PIV measurements are used to get access to the three components of the velocity. Due to time constraint, only three inter-vehicle distances are discussed in this paper (0.93 hc, 1.85 hc and 3.70 hc). The SPIV results validate those obtained from LDV measurements and provide complementary information. The sensitivities of the bi-stability of the transverse velocity to the short inter-vehicle distance (0.93 hc) and to the slant rear angle are investigated. SPIV measurements are then correlated with LDA measurements taking into account this behavior. These measurements are completed by further measurements of concentrations of the exhausted particles from the tailpipe.

Published: July 2023

A method of taking background oriented schlieren technique (BOS) images using projected backgrounds is shown. The projected backgrounds can be scaled to the measurement requirements, providing more flexibility than printed backgrounds. The evaluation of the BOS image pairs using cross correlation or optical flow analysis was shown to produce equivalent results. The background can be dynamically moved using a rotating mirror, allowing evaluation using the reference-free shadowgraphy or reference-free BOS methods. Forward BOS is shown, where the projected speckle pattern shines through the density object onto a screen, and is recorded by a camera focused on the screen. In contrast to standard shadowgraphy, this technique is robust when the lighting of the field is uneven, and the point movement is related to the first derivative of density.

The clarification process is the separation of oil from the sludge using a sludge centrifuge. The process in this sludge centrifuge treats sludge/sludge output from CST in the form of sludge underflow. The problem that occurs in the oil separation process in the centrifuge is the high amount of oil that is still included in the final effluent as oil losses. High oil loss is caused by a blockage in the nozzle due to the operational process of the tool that does not pay attention to procedures (SOP) and the lack of operators in the sludge centrifuge related to the maintenance process (washing). The purpose of this study, namely to identify the factors that influence the causes of oil loss in the slugde centrifuge and final effluent, examine the effect of nozzle washing (flushing) on ​​oil loss in the sludge centrifuge and liquid waste production (final effluent), and determine the most optimum flushing method in terms of oil loss and liquid waste production. This research went through four stages, namely problem identification, cause analysis, effort solution, and optimum flushing method. The results of this study indicate that the standby nozzle replacement method is the optimum method because it does not require water, only takes 15 minutes, and has the lowest loss rate of 0.53%. It is hoped that with such results, companies engaged in palm oil processing can apply this method.

Applied Physics of Extended (or Gamma) Sine and Cosine Functions
Authors: Teia Luis
Published: July 2023

Evolution of fundamental mathematical tools (such as trigonometric functions sin(α) and cos(α)) has inherent repercusions

on how we solve problems in applied physics. Recently published extended or gamma sine function sin∗(α, γ)

and cosine function cos∗(α, γ) — along with their upgraded identity angle sum and subtraction rules sin∗(A ± B, γ) and

cos∗(A ± B, γ) — have enabled a new approach on how to tackle practical problems using mathematics (a published example

is the energy-coupled mass-spring oscilatory system). The usefullness of a theory is measured by both the insight

it generates, and the solution it produces, when applied to physical problems with pertinent applications. Its acceptance

amongst peers depends on the availability of such examples, as way-showers of how the theory can be applied in practice,

and how useful results can be derived by employing it in similar or related examples/problems. This article has the

purpose of providing this bridge between the above theories and its application in some common scientific fields. Several

exercises are solved employing these new formulae, and new potential applications are identified that cover various topics

in physics such as civil engineering (i.e., measuring distances in bridges), aerospace and aeronautics (i.e., turbine velocity

triangles and optimum orbital deployment for a satellite constellation) and telecommunications (i.e., antenna array

beamforming and steering, as well as new modulations based on quadrature phase-shift keying). These problems (and

solutions) are designed to indicate the usefullness of these new expanded functions, and can become practical classroom

exercises applicable to both academic and professional environments.

Update over de behandeling van Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD)

Onder juristen treft men wel de veronderstelling aan dat Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD) ‘niet behandelbaar’ zou zijn. Het klopt dat er geen wondermiddelen bestaan, maar zowel binnen de medische als binnen de psychologische en de juridische context zijn wel degelijk manieren gevonden om de gezondheidsuitkomsten van patiënten met deze aandoening gunstig te beïnvloeden. In dit artikel wordt verslag gedaan van een onderzoek dat als doel had de actuele wetenschappelijke kennis uit deze verschillende domeinen te inventariseren en bij elkaar te brengen, en tot aanbevelingen te komen voor de letselschadepraktijk voor een herstelgerichte aanpak van WAD-graad I-II-zaken.
El teatro como una zona de contacto: ejemplos de una poética errante entre Chile y Argentina a principios del siglo XX
Authors: Gutiérrez Pia
Published: July 2023

Este artículo revisa por medio de documentos de archivo la relación entre la escena teatral de Chile y Argentina en el marco de los proyectos nacionales de la década de 1930. Para ello, se centra en el ejemplo del dramaturgo Armando Moock y su recepción en Chile y Argentina como un artista vinculado al territorio. A la base de esta revisión, se busca reflexionar sobre las limitaciones del estudio de estructuras nacionales no porosas que suele adoptar la crítica e historiografía del teatro y la literatura en América Latina para, en su lugar, proponer la lectura de flujos de filiación o actividades en movimiento que configurarían poéticas errantes.

Notni arhiv Ženskega pevskega zbora Milko Škoberne Jesenice na Glasbeni šoli Jesenice
Authors: Jamar Nina
Published: July 2023

Namen: Namen članka je opisati, kako smo v knjižnici na Glasbeni šoli Jesenice uredili in vnesli v sistem COBISS notni arhiv Ženskega pevskega zbora Milko Škoberne Jesenice.

Metodologija/pristop: Če želimo obdelati neko zapuščino, potem moramo najprej nekaj vedeti o sami zapuščini (osebi, zboru ipd.). V našem primeru je to Ženski pevski zbor Milko Škoberne Jesenice. Zato smo se odločili, da bomo v prvem delu raziskave popisali zgodovino Ženskega pevskega zbora Milko Škoberne Jesenice.  V drugem delu raziskave pa prikazali, kako smo notni arhiv Ženskega pevskega zbora Milko Škoberne vpisali v sistem COBISS.

Rezultati: Podatke o delovanju zbora smo poiskali v lokalnih glasilih, obrnili pa smo se tudi na pevke, ki so prepevale v Ženskem pevskem zboru Milko Škoberne iz Jesenic. Zbirni zapis za "Notni arhiv Ženskega pevskega zbora Milko Škoberne Jesenice" smo v sistem COBISS vnesli konec novembra 2020, zalogo pa smo mu dodali marca 2021.

Omejitve raziskave: Prvo omejitev pri raziskavi je predstavljajo dejstvo, da Ženski pevski zbor Milko Škoberne iz Jesenic ne deluje več. Drugo omejitev pa je predstavljalo dejstvo, da z obdelavo zapuščin in izdelavo zbirnih bibliografskih zapisov nismo imeli izkušenj.

Izvirnost/uporabnost raziskave: Z raziskavo smo želeli na enem mestu zbrati podatke o Ženskem pevskem zboru Milko Škoberne Jesenice in predstaviti to posebno zbirko, ki je del knjižnične zbirke na Glasbeni šoli Jesenice. Želeli pa smo tudi prikazati, kako lahko posebno zbirko vnesemo tudi v sistem COBISS.
