Cardiovascular disease has long been the leading cause of death in the United States, and predicted to affect forty percent of our population by 2030 (Narang et al., 2016).

she is fully aware of going against the organization’s practices and that why I selected it as number one. 2. The leader lacks the experience/knowledge to deal with the task at hand. This is a factor that I feel I am currently experiencing in my library system with some of the recent changes and shuffling around of staff in different departments; there are just simply people who cannot perform the expected tasks and they should not be in those positions that expect them to do so. This is…

On a late Thursday afternoon, I thought it would be have been a nice day to go library and get some books. Being a geeky teenage girl, I love to read anything from a mystery to a good thriller. My day started off great! A big bowl of Frosted Flakes, a bright early morning and a little bit of television. Nothing could go wrong… or could it? “Oh crap, where’s my library card”.I yelled in frustration. I began to search through all my pockets and in between my father’s car seats.After fifteen…

First of all, what does digitization in a museum context means? The Smithsonian Museum gives an accurate definition of it: “a set of processes that convert physical resources to a digital form or that create materials […] in a digital format. […] They form a new type of collection — a digital collection — that requires special care and preservation” (Smithsonian Institution, 2010, p. 3). Processes of digitization started with the appearance of CD-ROM invented by Philips in 1979, when technology…

I chose Belk Library of Appalachian State University for my ethnography project. The reason that I pick library for this project was that I knew everyday men, women, children, elder, and people of different nation came to this place for studying, relaxing, or for some other reasons.

It was a great experience working as a cultural…

We have learned that an idealistic library is the place where you go when you want to learn something new, use its free resources and when in need of silence. On most college campuses a library is known for being a place for independent academic study and not an environment in which you should talk to others.
