Sommario/riassunto |
|
Volume 36 of Advances in Librarianship seeks to provide a comprehensive broad review of the factors that lead to mergers and other alliances, the methods used to ensure effective and successful collaborations. While corporate mergers make headlines, similar efforts in library and information science are less vociferously touted. They are occurring however amongst libraries, among LIS degree programs, and enterprises such as networks and consortia They are occurring as governments around the world mandate consolidation of operations amongst agencies under their purview in order to reduce or curtail expenditures. The chapters include original research, case studies, literature reviews and conceptual papers on the following topics: Structural and operational mergers in the US, and also in Finland where higher education has undergone significant change in the past 10 years resulting in merged and joint library operations; A review of successful and unsuccessful mergers in the corporate sector which provide lessons that benefit the nonprofit sector; Experiences in higher education in library and information science programs through analysis of collaboration both in the US and in Europe and the Middle east by multi-university effort that adhere to standards of the Bologna Process; The collapse and mergers of former OCLC regional networks in the US; ; The fiscal results and savings from network acquisition of electronic resources and databases; the impact of efforts such as the Council on Library and Information Resources to nurture collaboration amongst libraries and various types of agencies; The results of radical fiscal constraints in Greece which led to contraction and collaboration among university libraries there. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Shelters, kiosks, snack bars, market stalls, bus stops, telephone booths, toilets, advertising columns, ticket booths, mobile tents or housing units, emergency shelters, tourist information booths-this list of small, autonomously functioning buildings could be expanded almost infinitely. Small buildings shape our daily lives; they are found at the nearest street corner; they are present and indispensable, but as architecture they attract our attention only rarely. Yet these small structures occupy a definite place in the infrastructure of the city. Rather than focusing on the large attractions of architecture, architects find many potential ways to ensure the quality of everyday design hidden in these small, sometimes charming necessities. This volume in the DETAIL series spans the arc between architecture and product design, since not infrequently small buildings are located precisely in the area of tension between these two professions, and their successful realization is evident in the details of their construction. |
Wartehäuschen, Kioske, Imbissbuden, Marktstände, Bushaltestellen, Telefonhäuschen, Toiletten, Litfaßsäulen, Ticketschalter, mobile Zelte oder Wohneinheiten, Notunterkünfte, Touristeninformationen - die Liste kleiner, autark funktionierender Bauten lässt sich fast unendlich erweitern. Kleine Bauten prägen unseren Alltag, man findet sie an der nächsten Straßenecke, sie sind präsent und unabdingbar, erwecken aber nur selten architektonische Aufmerksamkeit.Dabei nehmen all diese Kleinstrukturen einen festen Platz in der städtischen Infrastruktur ein. Anstatt auf die großen Attraktionen der Baukunst zu schielen, liegt für die Architekten viel Potenzial verborgen in der Qualitätssicherung des Alltagsdesigns dieser kleinen, manchmal geradezu charmanten Notwendigkeiten. Dieser Band der Im-DETAIL-Reihe spannt den Bogen zwischen Architektur und Produktdesign - denn nicht selten stehen die kleinen Bauten genau im Spannungsfeld zwischen den beiden Professionen - und zeigt deren gelungene Umsetzung bis ins konstruktive Detail. |
