A Poster Assignment Connects Information Literacy and Writing Skills.
Authors: Waters Natalie
Published: July 2022

This paper describes the implementation of a poster assignment in a writing and information literacy course required for undergraduate Life Sciences and Environmental Biology majors with the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at McGill University. The assignment was introduced in response to weaknesses identified through course evaluations. Students were not making the connection between what was being taught by the librarian, the information literacy portion, and the course lecturer, the grammar and writing portion, because most lectures and all assignments were handled separately. Students also had trouble tying the relevance of this this required course to their other science courses. A poster assignment holds many advantages, one of which is a clear connection in course content between the two sections, as well as being a common communication method in the sciences.

What Can Design Thinking Do for Libraries?
Authors: Fosmire Michael
Published: July 2022

Many of the readers of Issues in Science and Technology Librarianship are experts on understanding and searching for engineering information resources. We can locate standards, conduct classification searches of patents, and track down those pesky conferences and technical reports that are so hard to find. However, how often have we tried to use the products of engineering to improve our practice, the services we provide to our users? I recently had the opportunity to co-teach a section of an Introduction to Design Thinking course at my institution (the rationale was to get a deep, end-to-end look at how information literacy was being integrated into the course), and came away thinking how useful it would be to apply Design Thinking in the development of our own library services.

Data Management Practices and Perspectives of Atmospheric Scientists and Engineering Faculty.
Authors: Wiley Christie , Mischo William H.
Published: July 2022

This article analyzes 21 in-depth interviews of engineering and atmospheric science faculty at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) to determine faculty data management practices and needs within the context of their research activities. A detailed literature review of previous large-scale and institutional surveys and interviews revealed that researchers have a broad awareness of data-sharing mandates of federal agencies and journal publishers and a growing acceptance, with some concerns, of the value of data-sharing. However, the disciplinary differences in data management needs are significant and represent a set of challenges for libraries in setting up consistent and successful services. In addition, faculty have not yet significantly changed their data management practices to conform with the mandates. The interviews focused on current research projects and funding sources, data types and format, the use of disciplinary and institutional repositories, data-sharing, their awareness of university library data management and preservation services, funding agency review panel experiences, and struggles or challenges with managing research data. In general, the interviews corroborated the trends identified in the literature. One clear observation from the interviews was that scientists and engineers take a holistic view of the research lifecycle and treat data as one of many elements in the scholarly communication workflow. Data generation, usage, storage, and sharing are an integrated aspect of a larger scholarly workflow, and are not necessarily treated as a separate entity. Acknowledging this will allow libraries to develop programs that better integrate data management support into scholarly communication instruction and training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Planning for Change: A Maps and Geospatial Information Services Survey.
Authors: LaLonde Tara , Piekielek Nathan
Published: July 2022

Geospatial services in academic libraries are now common at many institutions, especially in the United States. The challenge now faced by geospatial services providers is to evolve and adapt their skills and service offerings in response to changes in research, teaching, and learning communities. Online survey instruments are a common tool used to assess geospatial user needs; however, they often fall short of anticipating future user needs and in helping geospatial services providers strategically assess the trade-offs between service offerings. This paper reports on a user needs assessment survey with its design aimed to identify user preferences for existing and future geospatial services. Respondents indicated preferences for existing access to GIS software, data discovery, and reference web pages. High priority areas for potential future service offerings included centralizing the acquisition of licensed geospatial data and developing long-term storage and preservation solutions for geospatial data. These findings can inform future outreach events, instructional offerings, maps and geospatial resources, and maps and geospatial information access. We discuss changes implemented following the survey and make recommendations for future assessments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Love Canal: Reminder of Why We Celebrate Earth Day
Authors: Stoss Frederick W. , Fabian Carole Ann
Published: July 2022

As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of Earth Day, it is fitting to take a look some of the reasons why a 30-something activist's movement still deserves our attention. This article describes the efforts of a small, Upstate New York community in dealing with the impacts of chemical wastes buried, almost literally, in the center of its neighborhood. Love Canal is remembered on Earth Day for two reasons. First, we remember Love Canal for where we have been for a substantial portion of Earth Day's thirty years. Second we remember Love Canal as an icon of work for the environment that still needs to be done. This article also tells how one library has handled an unexpected success story, to keep a temporary exhibit "alive."

Global warming is a topic on many people's minds right now. From elementary school students to advanced researchers, politicians to business leaders, questions abound regarding what global warming is (or is not), why it is happening (or is not), and what can and should be done about it. This guide is designed to help librarians in public, school, and academic libraries help their patrons find basic information from respected sources. A balance was sought between sites focusing on an introduction to global warming and those aimed specifically at researchers. Most sites have a slant towards policy and research in the United States, while selected references to international materials, especially from the United Nations and Canada, were also included.

AGORA: Access to Global Online Research in Agriculture [Abstract only]
Authors: Ochs Mary
Published: July 2022

This paper will introduce the audience to an international initiative underway to improve access to online journals in agriculture in the developing countries. AGORA (Access to Global Online Research In Agriculture) is a collaborative project of FAO, CGIAR, the World Health Organization and Cornell University's TEEAL project, along with major scientific publishers. AGORA is based on TEEAL (The Essential Electronic Agricultural Library) and modeled after the World Health Organization's HINARI (Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative). The ultimate goal of AGORA is to increase the quality and effectiveness of agricultural and environmental science research in low-income countries and, in turn, to improve food security. By providing access to the scholarly literature of agriculture and environmental sciences, researchers and decision makers in developing countries will have access to the work of the global scientific community and be better able to incorporate proven scientific knowledge into their research. AGORA will provide access to online content through a portal to be built especially for the project. The AGORA portal ultimately will fulfill the multiple information transfer functions so necessary to information delivery in the developing countries. In this first phase, AGORA will build a core platform providing access to online scientific journals in agriculture and related environmental and social sciences. The AGORA program team is working closely with publishers and agricultural database producers to build an excellent online collection of agricultural material, which will be made available either for free or at very low cost. In order to provide reference and technical support, libraries and librarians around the globe will be enlisted. We envision a 24x7 multi-language virtual reference/technical support service with agricultural libraries around the world contributing to the service. We also envision a "train the trainer" program, where librarians throughout the developing world will receive training in the use of the system and thus be prepared to pass that knowledge along to other trainers and end-users. This aspect of the program may offer an opportunity for U.S. land grant libraries to provide assistance with AGORA. While the possibility of obtaining access to online journals is greeted enthusiastically, some barriers to delivering online information in developing countries still exist. TEEAL undertook an Internet readiness survey in February 2002. This presentation will discuss some of the results of that study and the implications for delivery of information in the developing countries. We hope that, like TEEAL several years ago, AGORA will be the next program to revolutionize access to agricultural information in the developing countries. This presentation will introduce the USAIN audience to the many facets of this initiative.

Percentile-Based Journal Impact Factors: A Neglected Collection Development Metric.
Authors: Wagner A. Ben
Published: July 2022

Various normalization techniques to transform journal impact factors (JIFs) into a standard scale or range of values have been reported a number of times in the literature, but have seldom been part of collection development librarians' tool kits. In this paper, JIFs as reported in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) database are converted to percentiles (0%-100%) using Microsoft Excel's PERCENTRANK function. This permits a more intuitive evaluation of journal ranking within JCR subject categories and broader disciplines. The top journal by impact factor in any category is set to 100% while the lowest impact factor journal is set to 0% with all other journals on the list scaled according to their rank. Percentile-based impact factors (PIFs) also allow valid cross-disciplinary comparisons of impact factors, something not possible using JIFs. Finally, since a given journal title is often assigned to multiple subject categories, the relative impact of the same journal title can be compared and evaluated across each of those categories. This paper argues that PIFs should become a standard component of journal collection evaluation projects. The history, use, and misuse of impact factors are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Teaching Interview Skills to Undergraduate Engineers: An Emerging Area of Library Instruction.
Authors: Nelson Megan Sapp
Published: July 2022

Librarianship is one of a limited number of disciplines that deliberately learn and practice the art of the interview. For engineering librarians, this gives expertise and a role in teaching professional skills that are increasingly expected in the engineering profession. The reference interview and design interview have many similarities. Some areas in which students need instruction are preparation for interviews, body and spoken language awareness and choice, as well as the power dynamics of interviews. Service learning and design courses are likely venues for this type of instruction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Published: July 2022

Faculty and researchers who receive substantial funding from NIH were interviewed about their publication practices. Qualitative data was collected from interviews of eleven faculty members and one researcher representing six academic departments who received NIH funding. Interview responses were analyzed to identify a representative publication workflow and common themes related to the publication process. The goals of this study were to inform librarians about faculty publication practices; to learn how faculty are affected by and responding to NIH publication policy changes; and to inform planning and discussion about new services to support NIH compliance in addition to general faculty publishing. Major themes from the interviews included consistency in publishing workflows, but variety in authorship patterns and in data management practices. Significant points of pain for authors included difficulty finding quality reviewers, frustrating submission processes, and discomfort about the implications of publication agreements. Some authors found the NIH submission requirement to be burdensome, but most assumed their publishers were taking care of this process for them. Implications for library services are considered.

Aspects of Ordered Tea Utensils by Japan in the Late Joseon Dynasty : Focusing on Tsusima Souke Archives
Authors:   The Korean Tea Society, Cho Yonglan
Published: July 2022

This study is about the Tsushima Soke document at the beginning of the 18th century, the latter half of the Busan kiln, focused on the tea utensils order form, o-aturae-mono-hikae. It was examined from a sample on the requirements for the equipment of the orderers from Japan. The orderers were influential people in Japan, including painters, members of shogun's councilor, tea utensils dealers, daimyo, Buddhist priests, gardeners, tea ceremony, and temple and shrine magistrates. The contents of the order were detailed and complicated. The ability of Joseon potters who could meet such difficult orders reached a respectable standard. The order volume of the equipment ranged from 1 to 100 units carried by ship. Therefore, Joseon potters always made more quantities and sent to Japan. There were various ordered items, such as bowls, pots, water pitchers, water jars, sake cups, sake bottles, vases, kettles, braziers, incense burners, and plates, and the dimensions varied from large tea utensils to small lids. They requested various orders of elegant colors, such as cylindrical tea bowls, stackable tea bowls, table incense burners, sleeve incense burners, ash bowl solders, and clay pots. This study considers the custom-made ceramics made at the Busan Waegwan in the latter half of the Joseon Dynasty, based on the Soke's document, oaturaemonohikae, and explores the production process of the ‘gohon’ tea utensils’ that were born in the collaboration of Japanese connoisseurs and Joseon potter's techniques. The tea utensils are different from the natural beauty of Korea. The patterns and shapes are closely related to the Samurai tea ceremony that was popular at that time, and they were standardized.

Published: July 2022

Tuna is one of the abundant potentials in North Halmahera Regency, Tobelo. Tuna fish sold in several markets in the city of Tobelo in the form of intact or have been handled, thus tuna fish waste in the form of innards and gills is not utilized, causing a pungent odor at the sales location. The use of fish waste, one of which is an innards fish can be used as an alternative raw material for making fish feed. The raw material for making fish feed must have good nutritional quality including protein sources. This study aims to find out how to process tuna waste into fish feed and the level of respondent's preference for fish feed made. This research was conducted in October - November 2021. The results show that the average panelist assessment of the texture of artificial fish feed texture ranges from 5.45-6.4, the organoleptic value of artificial fish feed ranges from 5.15 to 5.7, the organoleptic value of artificial fish feed ranges from 5.2 to 5.65.
Modeling Dengue Fever by using Conditional Autoregressive Bessag-York-Mollie
Authors: Jajang Jajang , Pratikno Budi , Mashuri Mashuri
Published: July 2022

Dengue fever is a tropical disease caused by the dengue virus.  The small proportional of this dengue fever disease can develops into a more severe dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). This research discussed about the model for disease mapping in Ciamis District.   The purpose of this research is to characterize relative risk and factors correlated with case DHF.  Independent variables used in this research are population density, attitude of region, and the number of health worker. To analysis this data, we used conditional autoregressive Bessag-York-Mollie (CAR-BYM) model.  Based on descriptive statistic, the maximum and minimum DHF cases are Ciamis and Sukamantri, respectively.  Furthermore, basedon model results, we found that the maximum and minimum relative risk are Cijeungjing and Sukamantri, respectively. Furthermore, there were 7 sub districts which relative risk are greater than one and 20 sub districts which relative risk are less than one.  The sub districts which relative risk are greater than one show that DHF cases in these sub districts are greater than expectation.  Based on the CAR-BYM model result showed that Each increase the population density by one unit contributes to the addition of DHF cases by 0.0012 units. Each additional health worker one unit, it will reduce the number of DHF cases by 0.0675 units. Each additional altitude of one unit will reduce the number of dengue cases by 0.0011 units.  Based on relative risk (RR) value of the CAR-BYM model we found that the Cijengjing and Ciamis Districts have darkest color.  The RR values in the two sub-districts are 3,449 and 3,240, respectively. The RR values of the two sub-districts are more than expected values.

Auction in Indonesia is carried out by the Office of State Assets and Auction Services (KPKNL). Goods auctioned at KPKNL are quite diverse including land, wood, inventory, vehicles, and other goods. However, not all of the items auctioned were sold. Because not a few items have been auctioned but no one has made an offer. The Purpose of this study is to compare two classification methods, C4.5 and C5.0 algorithm and to determine which items were successfully auctioned with those that did not and its factors. The methods that used were comparing the classification tree C4.5 algorithm and C5.0 algorithm with cross validation. From the results of the comparison of the two methods, it was found that the C5.0 Algorithm method was rated better than the C4.5 algorithm in classifying the auction results with an accuracy of 96.43% and 92.86% respectively. In this case, C5.0 has a higher precision than C4.5.

Most indonesians consume rice as the main staple. The high low price of rice has an impact on farmers and communities, especially those who cannot afford it. Rice price forecasting is one of the important information to be considered for future rice prices. The data used is secondary data sourced from bps publication, Rural Consumer Price Statistics: Food Group, from January 2008 to December 2019 for 32 provinces in Indonesia. Time series  modeling and forecasting is usually done on a single variable using ARIMA. however, modeling becomes inefficient if there are many variables, so clustering time series analysis is performed using correlation distance with the clustering method of average linkage hierarchy. Cluster level ARIMA modeling with 4 clusters provides high efficiency because only by doing 4 times modeling results in accuracy values not much different from individual level modeling. the results obtained by individual-level ARIMA Modeling resulted in an average MAPE of 3.36%, while cluster-level ARIMA modeling with 4 clusters resulted in an average MAPE value of 4.27%, with a second MAPE difference of -0.91%. Formally conducted z test, the results obtained there is no difference between individual-level MAPE and cluster-level MAPE. This means that cluster-level modeling is relatively good and representative.

Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) expenditure describes the final result of the production process within a region's territorial boundaries. Knowing GRDP expenses can describe the level of welfare economics, develop policy formulation, taxation, and export-import study. In estimating the GRDP of expenses in the following year, it is necessary to have a method of calculating systematically, one of which is forecasting. Some research showed that trend moment method and naive method produce higher accuracy than other methods. This method can be used in long-term forecasting and does not require the amount of data to be odd or even. The method is compared to get one of the best methods and has the highest accuracy value using MAPE calculation. The smaller MAPE, the better the forecasting accuracy. Comparing the two methods shows that the Naive method is the best method based on the MAPE criteria with an accuracy of 0.976 %. The result of data forecasting shows a decrease in GRDP Blitar Regency year 2021 and 2022.

A etiologia reumática é responsável por mais de 90% dos casos de estenose mitral (EM) no Brasil, com predomínio em jovens. A evolução é lenta, sendo considerada anatomicamente importante quando a área valvar mitral for ≤1,5 cm2. As manifesta-ções clínicas são variadas, sendo mais frequentes a dispneia, taquiarritmias atriais e fenômenos tromboembólicos. Também são considerados complicadores da doença a fibrilação atrial e a hipertensão arterial pulmonar. O ecocardiograma é o método considerado padrão-ouro para o diagnóstico, estadiamento da doença e definição do tipo de intervenção. Em casos específicos podemos indicar outras ferramentas diagnósticas como os testes de esforço associados ou não ao Doppler, marcadores humorais e o cateterismo cardíaco com manometria direita. O tratamento clínico é recomendado na presença de sintomas congestivos, no controle da frequência car-díaca e na prevenção de embolia. A indicação de intervenção da EM grave deve se basear na presença de sintomas e de complicadores. O tratamento de escolha é a valvoplastia mitral por cateter balão (VMCB) se a anatomia valvar for favorável e sem contraindicações. A cirurgia (comissurotomia ou troca valvar) apresenta excelentes resultados a médio e longo prazo, sendo indicada atualmente quando a VMCB não for considerada factível. A EM reumática, em regiões de alta prevalência da doença, permanece um problema de saúde pública e esforços são necessários para modificar sua história natural e diminuir sua morbimortalidade através de uma profilaxia primária e secundária efetiva.

O funcionamento da valva mitral depende da perfeita interação entre o átrio esquerdo, o anel valvar mitral, os folhetos valvulares, as cordas tendíneas, os músculos papilares e o ventrículo esquerdo. Qualquer alteração em algum desses componentes pode levar à regurgitação ou insuficiência valvar. A insuficiência mitral é classificada como primária quando decorre de doenças que acometem a valva mitral e o aparelho subvalvar, resultando em mobilidade excessiva dos folhetos, prolapso valvar mitral, ruptura de cordas tendíneas ou retração dos folhetos como na febre reumática. A causa mais comum de insuficiência mitral primária é a febre reumática seguida do prolapso da valva mitral. O diagnóstico se baseia na história clínica e avaliação ecocardiográfica. O tratamento é potencialmente cirúrgico, sempre preferindo-se a plástica mitral se anatomicamente possível. O momento ideal da cirurgia baseia-se nos sintomas, na gravidade da lesão e nos marcadores de gravidade. Recentemente, o tratamento percutâneo tem sido utilizado para correção da regurgitação em casos de pacientes com alto risco cirúrgico.
