...OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF LIBRARY RESOURCES AND SERVICES IN SUPPORTING RESEARCHERS’ INFORMATION NEEDS Arinawati Ayob Perpustakaan Hamzah Sendut Universiti Sains Malaysia 11800 USM Pulau Pinang ABSTRACT As one of the supporting departments of a university, the academic library plays an important role in providing essential information resources and services to the researchers. Changes in information technology have impacted libraries due to changes in the format of information resources and the information seeking behavior of users. Technology has transformed the way researchers seek, obtain and use information. Libraries therefore need to critically examine the effectiveness of their services in fulfilling their researchers‟ information needs. An assessment of the effectiveness of library services has been conducted at an academic library based on selected criteria in four domains stated in the literature; 1) resources 2) services 3) library/stakeholders interactions and 4) access. The result from the survey has provided ideas about the strengths and the weaknesses of the library services from the perspective of researchers. The research also studied the relationship between demographic characteristics and library activities of the researchers and their perceived effectiveness of the library services in supporting their information needs. Keywords: Library Assessment; Outcome Assessment; User Studies; Effectiveness of Academic Library; Researchers‟ Information...

Celestial, Danisse Ann P. Fabros, Jeric Neil V. Huang, Ya-Hui E. Opinaldo, Cathleen Karla L. Platino, Shane Marienette M. “Tourism Development Plan: National Library of the Philippines” – Nation’s Literature’s Shelter Beautification 1 FAR EASTERN UNIVERSITY INSTITUTE OF TOURISM AND HOTEL MANAGEMENT October 2014 Vision and Mission The modernity of National Library of the Philippines tends to adapt to rapid global technological advances and catch up with other modernized libraries elsewhere, and its American style of architecture which upholds the sophistication makes visitors feel like passing through the history since it was established in American colonial period. National Library of the Philippines aims to provide a comfortable learning ambiance for visitors, upgrade most of the facilities to look more authentic, and enhance the creativity of facility design that can seem somehow distinct from other libraries while upholding the historical spirit within its structural design at the same time. “Tourism Development Plan: National Library of the Philippines” – Nation’s Literature’s...

...Project Management Case Studies These case studies represent a range of projects in different libraries. They are all based on real events. The participating librarians were asked to provide details of projects within the headings used in the case study template which is located at the end of this document. Each case study is presented using these headings to enable the reader to make comparisons between the projects but there is some slight variation of style and detail. Although some editing has been done by the writer of these learning objects, the intention is to retain as much of the individuality of each project as possible. Brief conclusion and analysis is provided at the end of each case study by the writer of these learning objects. Several of the projects are ongoing at the time of writing. This partly reflects the nature of projects in ILS whereby they run parallel to mainstream service delivery. This offers real challenges for those involved and especially for the project leader who will continually need to prioritise the tasks, commitment and speed of working towards completion. None of these projects have been submitted by or directly involve senior managers. Although most have some approval and reporting to senior staff, these projects are managed by professionals in the middle management strata of their organizations and involve different grades of staff or volunteers. Senior staff are less accessible than middle managers and would probably claim to...

...Build Your Own Oracle RAC Cluster on Oracle Enterprise Linux and iSCSI (Continued) The information in this guide is not validated by Oracle, is not supported by Oracle, and should only be used at your own risk; it is for educational purposes only. 12. Create "oracle" User and Directories Perform the following tasks on both Oracle RAC nodes in the cluster! In this section we will create the oracle UNIX user account, recommended O/S groups, and all required directories. The following O/S groups will be created: Description | Oracle Privilege | Oracle Group Name | UNIX Group name | Oracle Inventory and Software Owner | | | oinstall | Database Administrator | SYSDBA | OSDBA | dba | Database Operator | SYSOPER | OSOPER | oper | We will be using the Oracle Cluster File System, Release 2 (OCFS2) to store the files required to be shared for the Oracle Clusterware software. When using OCFS2, the UID of the UNIX user " oracle" and GID of the UNIX group " oinstall" must be the same on both of the Oracle RAC nodes in the cluster. If either the UID or GID are different, the files on the OCFS2 file system will show up as "unowned" or may even be owned by a different user. For this article, I will use 501 for the " oracle" UID and 501 for the " oinstall" GID. Note that members of the UNIX group oinstall are considered the "owners" of the Oracle software. Members of the dba group can administer Oracle databases, for example starting up and shutting down databases. Members...

In order to change a particular kernel setting following command is used: “$ sysctl setting name=setting value” 30. What feature differentiate telnet from SSH? Telnet and SSH are both are the protocols which are used to access a device remotely. The main feature for SSH is that it uses encryption while telnet does not. This feature of SSH makes it secure over the network. Usually the telnet is used on the machine where SSH client is installed. 31. Do you have any idea what are some quirky commands in Linux? Linux provides some features which give some surprising outputs on the terminal windows. For example $asciiview shows image on...

...Biometric based secured real-time attendance system Abstract: It is every human responsibility to follow echo friendly systems as we know how our environment getting polluted. One of the echo friendly systems is avoiding paper usage as much as possible. This can be achieved easily with help of advancement in technologies. Now a day’s so many technologies are coming out to make our lives more comfort, user-friendly and luxurious. In this project we are replacing current paper based attendance system with Biometric technology. This is a complete stand alone attendance system in which we store all students attendance with time and date in excel file which will be created on SD card using LPC2148 micro controller. The advantage of using fingerprint module is we can avoid false attendances. Because the person must present there to give his attendance and the mismatching ratio of fingerprints with another person is too high so there is no chance of giving attendance of others with same person. This finger print module support more than 100 users and we increase the user and also delete the users. The processing time for scanning one’s fingerprints is around 3 to 5 seconds only The advantage of SD memory card is we can store more data, the storage range is in Giga Bytes and the read and write time is too fast and we can create files in suitable formats. The communication between SD card and our controller is established using SPI communication. And the advantage...

...------------------------------------------------- One of the benefits of the internet is transferring file between computers to share information between people, but computers which run different operating systems need a common language between them to understand each other and this language is called protocols (Washburn et al., 1996). FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol to transfer files that described for the first time in the early seventies and standardized in 1982 (Matthews, 2005). SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is another file transfer protocol, but the first RFC describing SFTP was released in 2001 (Ylonen et al. 2001). Organizations have to provide file transfer services to their customers, and they should choose the secure file transfer protocol which will secure their costumers files. In this essay, a comparison between FTP and SFTP would be making from three aspects. Firstly, I will illustrate the differences between FTP and SFTP in starting communication methods, and how they maintain the connection and the ports used by them. Secondly, I will focus on security vulnerabilities of FTP and SFTP and their effects on users and files security. Finally, I will compare the speed of files transferring in FTP and SFTP for different files with different sizes. * ------------------------------------------------- Communication Approach: * ------------------------------------------------- System architecture identifies the system hardware and software requirements, and it has...

...Francisco Ramirez Unit 5 assignment 1 Ch. 18 1. Sftp-secure file transfer protocol is a network protocol that provides file access, transfer, and management over a trusted data stream. Scp-secure transfer protocol is a network protocol that transfers data that can withstand or is immune to interception and tampering. 2. Use the “ssh host who” command in the terminal to show who is logged in 3. Scp user@bravo:-r your@home:blank 4. “$ ssh plum xterm” or use this command with “-y” if x11 forwarding is not trusted 5. The problem that enabling compression prevent when using a ssh to run remote x11 applications on a local display would be that this creates a backup feature. Should the computer crash, all of your work will be saved on the hard drive. 6. Check with the remote administrator to see if something has changed. Ch. 20 1. Edit “etc/aliases file to include the entry: root, var/logs/systemmail 2. “Cat~/. Forward”, then max@bravo.com then “/max” 3. Edit “/etc/mail/access” and add the following: “connect 192.168.1.1 relay” 4. “dnl” stand for “delete to new line”, works the same as # in shell script; it instructs the compiler to ignore any line followed by “dnl” 5. Go to content configuration on Spamassassin, then under “required spam assassin score”, change 3 to 5. 6.

...Website Security Website Security is important in helping to protect both consumers and corporations from security threats. As more and more companies make their products available online, and consumers continue to find online shopping more convenient, threats to website security continue to rise. These threats can come in the form of identity theft and lead to consumers’ finances being stolen and used by the offenders. This also creates a financial burden to companies, as they could be liable for the financial damages to consumers, along with losing some of the trust that their consumers may have for them. Implications of a Security Breach Security breaches can be very damaging to an organization. Financially, it can be a nightmare, but a breach also means that the company will have to overhaul its website security practices and policies. For example, in August 2007, Monster Worldwide Inc., a company that runs Internet job boards Monster.com and USAJobs.gov, fell victim to a security breach that was very costly.(Hobson, 2014). According to NBC News, approximately 1.3 million people’s information was stolen. Normally, resumes do not contain any data that could be immediately damaging, such as Social Security Numbers, credit card numbers, and bank account numbers, but contact information can be used in phishing scams to gain more sensitive information. This security breach cost Monster $80 million in upgrades to improve the security of its site.(Bergstein, 2014)...
