Lokalne grupy działania jako nowy podmiot aktywności marketingowej samorządów gminnych : przykład województwa lubelskiego
Authors: Guzal-Dec Danuta
Published: April 2019

W pracy określono zakres i narzędzia funkcji marketingowej, w tym szczególnie funkcji komunikacyjnej lokalnych grup działania (LGD). Celem badań było określenie znaczenia LGD w kreowaniu produktu terytorialnego oraz zakresu wykorzystania PR przez LGD w komunikacji marketingowej gmin. Cel zrealizowano dzięki przeglądowi literatury, desk research oraz analizie dokumentów, szczególnie dokumentów bezpośrednio regulujących w perspektywie 2014-2020 funkcjonowanie ogółu 22 LGD w województwie lubelskim. W świetle wyników badań działania marketingowe LGD stanowią połączenie aktywności w zakresie rozwoju produktu i PR, aktywności związanej z tworzeniem/rozwojem produktów turystycznych oraz ich promocją. Działalność marketingowa LGD jest wzmocnieniem synergicznym aktywności marketingowej pojedynczych samorządów w obszarze rozwoju produktu i kształtowania wizerunku. LGD stanowią podmiot aktywnie uczestniczący w PR, a w tym w event marketingu, wzbogacają katalog stosowanych przez urzędy gmin wiejskich narzędzi PR.
Wartość oraz kierunki wykorzystania funduszy z programów operacyjnych 2007-2013 (2015) przez samorządy gmin wiejskich województwa warmińsko-mazurskiego
Authors: Rakowska Joanna
Published: April 2019

Głównym celem badania było określenie przestrzennego zróżnicowania wartości funduszy unijnych pozyskanych przez samorządy gmin wiejskich (wg klasyfikacji DEGURBA) z programów operacyjnych 2007-2013, w przeliczeniu na 1 mieszkańca (wskaźnik Sci) oraz w relacji do średniorocznych dochodów ogółem budżetów badanych gmin (wskaźnik Rscr), a także wskazanie kierunków ich wykorzystania na podstawie kategorii bazy danych SIMIK, wg stanu z 31 grudnia 2015 r. Łącznie 101 gmin wiejskich tego regionu zrealizowało 697 projektów i pozyskało 525.4 mln zł dofinansowania unijnego z PO 2007-2013, co stanowiło jedynie 30% funduszy unijnych pozyskanych z tego źródła przez wszystkie gminy województwa warmińsko-mazurskiego. Wartości wskaźników Sci i Rscr uzyskane przez te gminy wiejskie wynosiły odpowiednio od 50 do 5420 oraz od 1% do 164%. Większość badanych gmin cechują jednak najniższe wartości tych wskaźników. Tylko trzy gminy wiejskie uzyskały fundusze unijne o wartości wyższej niż 100% ich średniorocznych dochodów budżetów ogółem. Gminy wiejskie tego regionu pozyskały wsparcie głównie z RPO warmińsko-mazurskiego oraz PO "Kapitał ludzki". PO "Innowacyjna gospodarka" i "Infrastruktura i środowisko" były źródłem znacznie mniejszego wsparcia. Większość zrealizowanych projektów to projekty miękkie lub opracowanie planów i dokumentacji. Projektów twardych było znacznie mniej, pomimo to reprezentują one aż 19 priorytetów bazy SIMIK są i ukierunkowane na zaspokojenie zróżnicowanych potrzeb rozwojowych.
Współczesne oblicza segmentacji rynku pracy
Authors: Kryńska Elżbieta
Published: April 2019

Przedmiotem opracowania są podziały współczesnych rynków pracy, celem jest identyfikacja ewolucji oraz współczesnych mechanizmów i przejawów segmentacji. Osiągnięciu tak sformułowanego celu służą analizy zmian zachodzących w realnym świecie oraz rozwoju badań zjawisk na rynku pracy w ostatnim ćwierćwieczu, jak również prezentacja rodzajów segmentacji rynku pracy o zasadniczym znaczeniu dla jego funkcjonowania, jak segmentacje: konkurencyjna, informacyjna, sieciowa oraz behawioralna. Opracowanie skupia się na jednej z koncepcji segmentacji, jaką jest koncepcja dualnego rynku pracy podzielonego na dwa segmenty: pierwszy i drugi. Z przeprowadzonych analiz wynikają dwa podstawowe wnioski. Po pierwsze, obecne podziały rynku pracy skutkują rozszerzeniem się segmentu drugiego. Po drugie, identyfikacja współczesnych segmentów rynku pracy wymaga wielu szeroko zakrojonych prac badawczych, integrujących podejście instytucjonalne, ekonomiczne, społeczne oraz psychologiczne.

Celem analizy jest ocena zastępowalności (rotacyjności) obecnych i przyszłych potencjalnych zasobów pracy w krajach europejskich, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem Polski (w której przypadku analizy są prowadzone na poziomie województw i powiatów).
Zjawisko migracji zagranicznych a wybrane aspekty kształtowania kapitału ludzkiego
Authors: Zdrojewski Eugeniusz , Kisiel Aneta
Published: April 2019

Określone regiony bądź kraje przyciągają i potrafią zatrzymać istniejący potencjał demograficzny. Inne podlegają stagnacji lub nawet regresowi, co w skrajnych sytuacjach prowadzi wręcz do wyludnienia. Ten problem jest ważny, ponieważ to mieszkańcy danych terytoriów inicjują oraz kreują pewne działania, wartości i zmiany w swoim otoczeniu. Przyciąganie, zatrzymanie, rozwijanie i utrzymanie pracowników obecnie jest szczególnie trudnym wyzwaniem, a migracje sprawiają, że to wyzwanie jest jeszcze trudniejsze. W artykule podjęto tematykę wybranych aspektów kształtowania kapitału ludzkiego w obliczu migracji zagranicznych na przykładzie Polski. Kapitał ludzki kształtuje wiele czynników. To złożony proces. Celem artykułu jest ukazanie skutków, jakie w praktyce zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi niosą migracje zagraniczne. Z jednej strony teoretycy i praktycy zarządzania podkreślają coraz większe znaczenie wykorzystania kapitału ludzkiego, a z drugiej w wielu sytuacjach obserwuje się jego marnotrawstwo.

Międzynarodowa współpraca miast dotyczy bardzo wielu płaszczyzn, m.in. gospodarczej, społecznej i kulturalnej. Współpraca ta jest uwarunkowana licznymi czynnikami, wśród których się wymienia: podobieństwa miast, wcześniejsze doświadczenia we wzajemnych relacjach, chęć wymiany dobrych praktyk w zarządzaniu, poprawę jakości życia mieszkańców oraz uwarunkowania ekonomiczne. Przykładem międzynarodowej współpracy miast jest sieć miast Cittaslow. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie idei międzynarodowej współpracy miast na przykładzie sieci miast Cittaslow oraz zidentyfikowanie determinant i korzyści współpracy między miastami. Do sieci Cittaslow należy ponad 230 miast z całego świata. Źródłem współpracy tych miast jest ich podobieństwo, które w tym przypadku dotyczy ich wielkości i przyjętego modelu rozwoju. W ramach sieci Cittaslow współpracują miasta małe, które chcą się rozwijać na podstawie filozofii slow, a we współpracy z innymi podobnymi miastami upatrują wielu korzyści, zarówno w sferze przyrodniczej, społecznej, gospodarczej, jak i przestrzennej.
Regional Strategic Groups as an Instrument for the Location’s Decisions Supporting on the Example of Food Industry
Authors: Godlewska-Majkowska Hanna , Komor Agnieszka
Published: April 2019

Process of planning the location of enterprises still lacks the method allowing for combining spatial analysis with the competitiveness analysis of the industries or their clusters, while taking into account the competitive position and competitive potential. The purpose of the study is to create a new methodical pattern in the location analysis of the company based on regional strategic groups, and to show the possibilities and limitations of the proposed tool's application, supporting location decisions on the example of food industry companies in NUTS 2 level regions in Poland. The study included medium and large enterprises of the food industry in 2013. This paper contains an attempt of application of a modified McKinsey matrix for spatial analyses, using the investment attractiveness indexation of regions. The suggested modification of McKinsey matrix is a new proposal in this respect, while at the same time being an attempt to solve the problem of the management. Regional strategic groups analysis allows one to propose possible strategic actions for businesses, which helps to solve the problem of location management of group of companies, including regional clusters. It is worth noting that the proposed instrument also contributes to the actions of the local government units (regions), concerning the adaptation of investment offer to the needs of business entities.
Rule-Based Versus Discretionary Fiscal Policy
Authors: Grabia Tomasz
Published: April 2019

Fiscal policy can be of a discretionary or rule-based nature. This article discuses selected examples of fiscal rules as well as presents the advantages and disadvantages of following them. The aim of the article is to solve dilemmas about the positive and negative consequences of strict regulations of contemporary fiscal policy. Therefore, a hypothesis is tested concerning whether the following of rules in macroeconomic policy is a more beneficial solution than carrying out a discretionary policy. The hypothesis was not clearly verified. On the one hand, it was stated that it is usually more beneficial to follow standard rules due to higher reliability for markets. On the other hand, that entails lower flexibility, which may be especially disadvantageous during a crisis.
Indicators of Sustainable Development of the Province of Warmia and Mazury in the Environmental Aspect
Authors: Witkowska-Dąbrowska Mirosława
Published: April 2019

The purpose of this study has been to identify the degree of sustainability in the development of the Province of Warmia and Mazury. The theoretical and empirical investigations were conducted between 2003-2014 based on data from the Local Data Bank. Using a comparative indicator method, 20 indicators were developed, with different directions of preference. The evaluation involves the concept of uniform preference, hence the higher the assessment indicator, the better the situation in the evaluated area unit. Our studies on the sustainable development of the Province of Warmia and Mazury suggest that the indicators measuring the environmental dimension and consequently the quality of life of the residents (in this aspect) score higher than the country's average values. It is also optimistic that some progress, however small, can be seen in this area based on the analyzed dynamics of changes.
The European Union Transport Policy and their Consequences for the Infrastructure Development in Poland in 2014-2020. Part II
Authors: Szymanowski Wacław
Published: April 2019

In part I of the paper discussed the evolution of the objectives of the COMMON TRANSPORT POLICY over the last 20 years, of a major impact on the level of spatial cohesion achieved, and ensuring competitive, reliable, safe and environmentally friendly transport opportunities. On that basis, dilemmas regarding the outcomes of their implementation after 2020 until 2050 are analyzed. 3 options for policy outcomes are formulated: POLICY OPTION I suggesting the pursuit of the applicable policy, i.e. the completion of the construction of the motorway network in Poland, with possible difficulties for the State budget. POLICY OPTION II assumes that there will be a shift of some road traffic onto rail following the launch of an adequate fee and toll policy, decreasing the burden placed on car transportation. Finally, POLICY OPTION III delineates the perspective of a sustainable and durable transport development thanks to appropriate allocations of funds, and, in consequence, an improved competitiveness of national traffic and the completion of the construction of motorway infrastructure. The choice of policy option may have dramatic implications as to Poland's ability to manage its development opportunities ahead.
Metropolitan Areas in Poland - State of Development and its Barriers
Authors: Stanowicka Agnieszka
Published: April 2019

Metropolitan areas are increasingly often regarded as the key drivers of economic growth and the main targets of social and economic development strategies. Those processes are fraught with numerous limitations and barriers. The aim of this study was to identify major problems in the development of Polish metropolitan areas. The key issues were characterized based on a review of the available literature. Attempts were made to propose general solutions to selected problems. In Poland, the identification of metropolitan areas poses a problem, which lowers the effectiveness of management strategies for those regions. Polish urban agglomerations have weakly developed metropolitan functions, which compromises their status in European rankings and European metropolitan area networks.
Synchronisation of Regional Business Cycles of Eastern Polish Provinces with the National Cycle in the Context of Regional Economic Structures
Authors: Warżała Rafał
Published: April 2019

The objective of the article is to determine the degree of regional variation among provinces located in so-called Eastern Poland. The criterion for such variation is the structure of the generated GDP and the course of fluctuations in business cycles related to it. The analysis of economy structures in such provinces, as well as application of band-pass filters, used for separating the course of cyclical fluctuations, enabled the evaluation of the degree of structural discrepancies and business cycle discrepancies in five examined provinces. The analysis of cycle morphology in a regional perspective confirmed significant discrepancies in the course of the business cycle fluctuations in comparison to the cycle for Poland in general. The relation between the structure of the generated regional product and its co-convergence with the reference cycle is also visible. Regions characterised by a much higher or much lower share of agriculture in the GDP show different sensitivity to business cycle changes. Furthermore, these regions of Eastern Poland which have industries with a clearly pro-export nature (Warmia and Mazury, Podlasie and Podkarpackie) retain their separate character in the course of the fluctuations of the business cycle, differing from other regions included in the examined area of the country.
The Service Sector in the Economy in Poland and European Union Countries
Authors: Kwiatkowska Walentyna
Published: April 2019

The role of the service sector in the economy is increasing in the process of socio-economic development. This tendency has been confirmed and explained by the three-sector theory formulated by A.G.B. Fisher, C. Clark, and J. Fourastie. The main goal of the paper is to show development tendencies in service sectors in Poland and the EU countries and assess them in view of the three-sector theory. The share of the service sector in the total employment and in the total gross value added in the years 2005-2013/2014 will be analysed together with two sub-sectors including market and non-market services. The research shows that the share of the service sector in total employment and total gross value added has been recently increasing in Poland as well as in other EU countries, but there is a gap in this process between Poland and the most developed EU countries. Moreover, in Poland, the role of market services has been recently increasing much faster than the role of non-market services.
Use of admixture effectiveness curves for prediction of the compressive strength of concrete
Authors: Grzybowska Agnieszka , Mrozik Łukasz
Published: April 2019

This paper presents the results of individual laboratory tests conducted in the Research and Experiment Facility of the University of Science and Technology in Bydgoszcz, in particular of tests conducted on pastes of low water-binder ratios (from 0.2 to standard water demand (Mrozik 2012)). The purpose of this document is to examine the effect of the applied admixtures (plasticizer or superplasticizer) and its amount on the bulk density of a cement paste, thus on the compressive strength of concrete (as shown in the paper (Neville 2012), properties of concrete can be estimated on the basis of pastes). Conclusions concerning the suitability of specific amounts of plasticisers and superplasticizers were formulated and effectiveness curves were established on the basis thereof.
Kategorija prostora u trinitarnoj teologiji Jürgena Moltmanna
Authors: Pehar Marija
Published: April 2019

Već zbog svoje konstitutivne funkcije unutar kategorije povijesti vrijeme je u židovsko-kršćanskoj tradiciji, pa onda i u kršćanskoj teologiji uvijek bilo veoma značajna i često promišljana tema, dok je kategorija prostora u toj istoj teologiji ostajala više na periferiji interesa. Međutim u suvremenoj kršćanskoj teologiji primjećuje se probuđeni interes za tu kategoriju i nastojanje da ju se pokaže kao imanentno teološku kategoriju jer se u njoj prepoznaje egzistencijalno vjerničko pitanje ljudskoga traganja za Božjom nazočnošću i blizinom. Riječ je o pristupu u kojem se prostor promišlja kao relativnu veličinu u odnosu na Boga i čovjeka te s druge strane kao moguću oznaku samoga Božjega bića. S tom je argumentacijom pitanje prostora našlo svoje mjesto i u teološkim traganjima Jürgena Moltmanna. On se pita kako se prostor dade misliti unutar bogoiskustva, odnosno kako misliti i razumjeti Boga ako pokušamo promišljati prostor u Bogu i Boga u prostoru. S tim se pitanjem suočava kroz svoju vjerničko-teološku otvorenost svijetu (izrazito vidljivo unutar njegove teologije stvaranja), ali prije svega kroz dosljedan unutarnji razvoj svoje cjelokupne teološke misli koja svoje središte i temelj nalazi u trinitarnoj teologiji, što se prepoznaje i prati u ovome radu. Neke polazne elemente za teološko promišljanje prostora naći će Moltmann u starozavjetnom razumijevanju Boga (»šekinah«, »makom« i »zimzum«), što je predstavljeno u prvom dijelu ovoga rada, dok će temeljna uporišta za teološku interpretaciju kategorije prostora pronaći i razviti tek unutar trinitarnoga kršćanskoga nauka, što je izloženo u drugom, središnjem dijelu. Ovdje je pokazano kako Moltmann u otačkom nauku o perihorezi pronalazi glavno uporište za pozorno usredotočenje na kategoriju prostora kao teološku kategoriju, što je prepoznato kao temeljni zaokret unutar njegove teologije. Konačno, u trećem su dijelu iznesene dosljednosti koje iz Moltmannovih trinitarnih promišljanja prelaze u njegovu teologiju stvaranja, a kasnije i kršćansku eshatologiju, a u kojima izuzetnu važnost zauzima upravo promišljanje kategorije prostora. Ta se kategorija na neki način pokazala nosivom kategorijom njegove teologije, ali i crvenom niti koja u toj teologiji uvijek iznova izranja, iznutra je povezuje i u potpunosti prožima i određuje.

Published: April 2019

‘WyoWinter’ (Reg. No. CV‐29, PI 688001; experimental designation Wyo #11) is a winter feed pea [Pisum sativumL. ssp.sativumvar.arvense(L.) Poir.] developed by the University of Wyoming and the Wyoming Agricultural Experiment Station and released in 2016 for its adaptation and high forage and seed yield in Wyoming. WyoWinter was derived from a cross between a selected late‐flowering plant of landrace Austrian Winter and a late‐flowering plant of landrace Common Austrian Winter. WyoWinter traces back to a single F2plant grown in a spaced‐plant nursery and was developed by a combination of pedigree and bulk breeding methods. WyoWinter was evaluated in fall‐sown yield trials in 2 yr, two locations, and two growing conditions (dryland and irrigated). Over 2 yr and two locations, forage yield of WyoWinter averaged 694 and 2739 kg ha−1and seed yield averaged 954 and 2249 kg ha−1under dryland and irrigated conditions, respectively. WyoWinter has indeterminate growth habit, and seed has yellow cotyledons and pigmented seed coat. The 1000‐seed weight was 110 g. Forage nutritive values were high and comparable to check cultivars. WyoWinter exhibits excellent winterhardiness and good performance in southeast Wyoming and northwest Nebraska. It can be used as a forage crop, as grain for livestock feed, and as a green manure or cover crop. WyoWinter has potential to be integrated as a rotational crop in the winter wheat (Triticum aestivumL.)–summer fallow farming system in the central Great Plains.
Registration of ‘Contender’ Peanut
Authors: Chamberlin K. D. , Bennett R. S. , Damicone J. P.
Published: April 2019

‘Contender’ (Reg. No. CV‐139, PI 689511) is a large‐seeded high‐oleic virginia‐type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar with enhanced pod size distribution and seed size when compared to the virginia‐type cultivar VENUS. Released jointly by the USDA‐ARS and Oklahoma Agricultural Experiment Station in 2018, Contender (tested as ARSOK V85‐377) is the result of a cross between the high‐oleic virginia cultivar Brantley and high‐oleic runner cultivar Red River Runner. Contender had an average pod yield of 6446 kg ha−1, a grade (total sound mature kernels [TSMK]) of 69%, and 55% extra‐large kernels (ELK), giving it the highest estimated value for the producer among the virginia‐type cultivars tested in Oklahoma Cultivar Trials for 2016–2017. Contender's average super jumbo count per kilogram and average pod brightness (Hunter L) score were reported at 318 kg−1 (9 oz−1) and 50, respectively, indicating that this cultivar has large, bright pods, which are necessary components of any market‐worthy virginia cultivar. When entered in the national Uniform Peanut Performance Test (UPPT), Contender performed well in all locations, averaging 5646 kg ha−1, 75.6% fancy pods, 58% ELK, a sound mature kernel weight per 100 seed of 90 to 104 g and a TSMK of 71.7%. The purpose for releasing Contender is to provide peanut producers in the southwestern United States with a high‐oleic virginia peanut developed specifically for that region that has enhanced pod size distribution and larger seed size compared with VENUS.
An Investigation into the Relationship between Turkish EFL Teachers’ Self-Efficacy and Burnout Level
Authors: OZKARA Betul
Published: April 2019

The
present study investigates if any relationship between
self-efficacy beliefs and burnout levels as well as the effect of demographic data such as gender, age, teaching experience, average number of
students in classrooms on the three dimensions of teacher burnout (emotional
exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment) and self-efficacy beliefs. 118 Turkish EFL teachers from primary, secondary, high
schools and universities in many cities participated in the study. Data came
from Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), and language teacher self-efficacy
beliefs scale (Praver 2014). Findings showed that there was a significant positive relationship between self-efficacy and personal accomplishment and emotional exhaustion.
On the other hand, the results showed a negative relationship between emotional exhaustion and personal
accomplishment and a negative relationship between personal accomplishment and
depersonalization. Generally, teachers
felt sufficient, had high self-accomplishment
and they had low burnout level. In addition, age and experience were also found
to play an important role in personal accomplishment and self-efficacy. These findings have been
discussed and implications given for further research.

Community Of Common Destiny Sebagai Platform Kebijakan Luar Negeri China Dalam Merespon Globalisasi Ala Barat
Authors: Fatmasiwi Laras Ningrum
Published: April 2019

Tulisan ini mencoba mendiskusikan pertentangan nilai antara China dan Barat dalam melihat perkembangan globalisasi ekonomi yang cenderung didominasi oleh paham Barat. Infiltrasi nilai Barat dalam globalisasi ekonomi terlihat dari prinsip kapitalisme yang digunakan dalam pasar bebas dan institusi perekonomian global seperti International Monetary Fund (IMF), Bank Dunia, dan World Trade Organization (WTO). Hal tersebut bertentangan dengan prinsip yang dianut China yaitu “Sosialisme dengan Karakteristik China”, yang merupakan gabungan dari konfusianisme dan sosialisme. Dengan menggunakan pandangan konstruktivisme oleh Christian Reus-Smith, Alexander Wendt, dan Peter Katzenstein, artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa China memiliki interpretasi tersendiri dalam menanggapi globalisasi ekonomi ala Barat yang dipengaruhi oleh dua determinan yaitu pengaruh nilai domestik dan konteks internasional. Kedua determinan tersebut mendorong China untuk menciptakan globalisasi ala China berprinsip pada Sosialisme dengan karakteristik China yang dituangkan dalam kebijakan community of common destiny.

Synthesising trait observations and knowledge across the Tree of Life remains a grand challenge for biodiversity science. Despite the well-recognised importance of traits for addressing ecological and evolutionary questions, trait-based approaches still struggle with several basic data requirements to deliver openly accessible, reproducible, and transparent science. Here, we introduce the Open Traits Network (OTN) – a decentralised alliance of international researchers and institutions focused on collaborative integration and standardisation of the exponentially increasing availability of trait data across all organisms. The OTN embraces the use of Open Science principles in trait research, particularly open data, open source, and open methodology protocols and workflows, to accelerate the synthesis of trait data across the Tree of Life. Increased efforts at all levels – from individual scientists, research networks, scientific societies, funding agencies, to publishers – are necessary to fully exploit the opportunities offered by Open Science in trait research. Democratising access to data, tools and resources will facilitate rapid advances in the biological sciences and our ability to address pressing environmental and societal demands.

Method for Evaluating a Building Information Model
Authors: Kovács Ádám Tamás , Micsik András
Published: April 2019

This paper discusses a method for evaluating building information models from the point of view of different disciplines. The ultimate goal is to provide a methodology for decision-makers on an Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) project, where they can follow the status and performance of the BIM model at each project milestone, from different aspects, in a comparable manner. This methodology requires an evaluation method that aggregates data input by the designers. Interpreting BIM models is complex – multi-dimensional, in fact, considering the meta-information added to it. Therefore, the aggregation process is not trivial and may differ in several cases. We build up multi-dimensional diagrams to chart the possible factors of the evaluation, besides introducing aggregation rules and visualizations. For such a method, it was essential to analyze BIM ontologies in order to establish a precise definition for each concept: milestones, building parts, indicator metrics, etc. We describe an example project workflow where our method works in theory, while we give a practical solution how to add the evaluation data to the BIM model with CAAD software.
Accessibility and Inclusion Issues in Library Acquisitions: A Guideline to Evaluating and Marketing the Accessibility of Library E-Resources
Authors: Falloon Kerry A.
Published: April 2019

The purpose of this study is to emphasize accessibility and inclusion issues within academic libraries in the United States, specifically in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other federal laws relevant to acquisition services. A review of best practices for evaluating, purchasing, and marketing electronic resources is undertaken with an understanding of U.S. federal law and regulations in relation to purchasing and marketing, specifically Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the ADA Standards for Accessible Design (2010). Few other recent studies document the exact application of evaluating products and services for users with disabilities in acquisition workflows and electronic resource implementation practices. As a model for other libraries, the author discusses using LibGuides as an outreach tool to disseminate information and documentation dedicated to disability issues among City University of New York (CUNY) librarians. The methodology of this study is to share best practices at the College of Staten Island (CSI) Library–CUNY with other academic libraries. The results will hopefully lead to more inclusive acquisition purchasing practices and more diverse marketing initiatives within academic libraries. The conclusion of the study is that purchasing and marketing workflows need to be redesigned to be universally applicable to all library users.
Abortion is an Information Issue
Authors: Reilly Hope E
Published: April 2019

In the years following the 1992 Supreme Court decision, Planned Parenthood v. Casey, abortion has been subjected to a wide range of legal restrictions, and the impact of these restrictions has not been adequately studied. While this process of increasingly restrictive regulation may be considered a public health issue, the natures of these laws also make them relevant to information studies. Biased counseling laws mandate that an abortion provider disseminate information specifically designed to discourage a woman from obtaining an abortion. This paper examines the impact of these laws on both the abortion patient and provider. Biased counseling information has a demonstrable effect on the health information access of abortion patients and on the intellectual freedom of abortion providers. However, there are also chilling effects on the intellectual freedom of the abortion patients themselves. This paper establishes abortion as an information issue and calls for future study into its effects on information access and intellectual freedom.
Holy selfies: Performing pilgrimage in the age of social media
Authors: Caidi Nadia , Beazley Susan , Marquez Laia Colomer
Published: April 2019

In this article, we examine the selfie-taking and sharing practices of Muslim pilgrims in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. We introduce the concept of the “holy selfie” (a selfie taken during either theHajj or the Umrah pilgrimages) and report on a visual content analysis of a sample of 100 holy selfies publicly available on social networking platforms. We seek to reach an understanding of the work that holy selfies do in the context of the expressions of spiritual and religious identity of those producing them. Our findings suggest that the embodied experience of pilgrims at the holy sites finds an expressive release through holy selfies, with many pilgrims viewing selfie-taking as an important part of their journey. The selfies (and associated features) capture and document pilgrims’ experiences, contribute to their meaning-making, enable the sharing of memories with loved ones, and attract online followers. Our study provides a picture of how holy selfies blur the gender line (as many males as females take them), emerge despite the opposition of Saudi authorities, and serve as a means of engaging with a multiplicity of audiences. We seek to start a conceptual and methodological conversation about this emerging phenomenon of identity construction involving the use of new media along with the construction of affiliative identities among geographically dispersed communities of Muslim pilgrims. The taking of holy selfies can thus be read as a tactic used by 21st-century Muslims to create opportunities for self-representation and community building in a context of increasing Islamophobia.
Engaging linguistically diverse populations: Gatekeepers in rural and sparsely populated areas of the U.S. Midwest
Authors: Adkins Denice , Moulaison Sandy Heather
Published: April 2019

In the Midwestern U.S., there is a growing population of Latin American immigrants. This increase is driven largely by employment opportunities in generally low-skilled, low wage fields such as meat processing and packing, and other agricultural fields. As a result, rural towns with relatively few resources are welcoming a growing number of non-English speaking immigrants who may not have experience with the practices and institutions of the U.S. such as libraries, schools, hospitals, or social support services. The agencies that usually work with linguistically diverse immigrant populations are churches, schools, and university extension departments. Building off previous research, this paper reports on ten interviews with gatekeepers about their work in reaching and engaging with Latin American immigrant populations. Three interrelated themes emerged from the interviews: the importance of language, of providing relevant services, and of cultivating trust. Drawing from the experiences reported by the gatekeepers as well as the literature, the authors discuss implications for small rural libraries that might not be equipped to take over gatekeeping roles, but that want to work with immigrant communities. Ultimately, the authors recommend that rural libraries liaise with established gatekeepers to the greatest extent possible.

Rethinking Representation: Indigenous Peoples and Contexts at the University of Alberta Libraries
Authors: Farnel Sharon , Koufogiannakis Denise , Laroque Sheila , Bigelow Ian , Carr-Wiggin Anne , Feisst Debbie , Lar-Son Kayla
Published: April 2019

Appropriate subject access and descriptive practices within library and information science are social justice issues. Standards that are well established and commonly used in academic libraries in Canada and elsewhere, including Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) and Library of Congress Classification (LCC), continue to perpetuate colonial biases toward Indigenous peoples. In the fall of 2016, the University of Alberta Libraries (UAL) established a Decolonizing Description Working Group (DDWG) to investigate, define, and propose a plan of action for how descriptive metadata practices could more accurately, appropriately, and respectfully represent Indigenous peoples and contexts. The DDWG is currently beginning the implementation of recommendations approved by UAL’s strategic leadership team. In this paper we describe the genesis of the DDWG within the broader context of the libraries’ and the university’s responses to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s Calls to Action; outline the group’s activities and recommendations; and describe initial steps toward the implementation of those recommendations, with a focus on engaging local Indigenous communities. We reflect on the potential impact of revised descriptive practices in removing many of the barriers that Indigenous communities and individuals face in finding and accessing library materials relevant to their cultures and histories.
NNELS: A New Model for Accessible Library Service
Authors: Johnson Kim
Published: April 2019

Public libraries face a unique challenge when building a collection that includes accessible format material for people with print disabilities, as a very small percentage of published material is available in accessible formats. In Canada, the National Network for Equitable Library Service (NNELS) offers a forward-thinking solution to this predicament. NNELS is digital library of accessible-format material; this paper argues that NNELS’ model of user-driven, participatory, and publicly-owned accessible format collection-building, provides an innovative way for public libraries to meet the needs of their print-disabled communities.
An Exploratory Case Study of Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Inclusion at a Metropolitan Library in the Southeastern U.S.
Authors: Movius Liz
Published: April 2019

This article examines the existing diversity and inclusion responses to transgender and gender nonconforming patrons at a large, metropolitan public library in the southeastern U.S. Research shows that transgender and gender nonconforming individuals face unique challenges when navigating libraries. These challenges include inadequate collections, microaggressions from reference staff, a lack of gender-neutral bathrooms, and circulation policies preventing remote name changes. To compensate for these difficulties and increase accessibility for transgender and gender nonconforming patrons, libraries should incorporate diversity and inclusion initiatives into their functions. The author evaluated current collections, programs, services, policies, and resources for inclusivity, equity, and accessibility and created a strategic diversity action plan for the institution. The strategic diversity action plan identified six steps the library should take to foster inclusion and increase accessibility for its transgender and gender nonconforming patrons. These six steps include: 1) create an official, transgender-friendly bathroom policy; 2) develop a diversity and inclusion statement that includes gender identity in its language; 3) invest in staff training and continuing education about gender, sexuality, and transgender issues and service needs; 4) conduct a needs assessment of the transgender and gender nonconforming community; 5) establish programming based on the needs and wants expressed by the transgender and gender nonconforming community; and 6) implement a remote name-change or preferred name-change process.
