Описание: Action figures are more than toys or collectibles - they are statements on race, gender, class, body positivity and more. This collection of nine essays and one interview argues that action figures should be analysed in the same light as books, movies, televisions shows and other media. Through an examination of these plastic bodies, "action figure studies" can inform the next generation of toys.

Описание: During the past few years, groups like the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, Center for Education have been placing great emphasis on the significance of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education. In brief, the US is seen as falling behind the rest of the world in science and technology education. In response, the curricula have been revised in many educational institutions and school districts across the country.

It is clear that for STEM to be successful, other community organizations, most particularly libraries, need to be closely involved in the process. Library staff realize the importance of getting involved in STEM education, but many have difficulty finding comprehensive information that will help them plan and successfully implement STEM direction in their organization. This book is designed to meet that need.

It is timely and relevant. How to STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Education in Libraries is by and for libraries who are involved in contributing efforts into advancing these subjects. It is organized in 9 parts including funding, grant writing, community partnerships, outreach, research, and examples of specific programming activities.

Authors are drawn from the professional staffs of educational institutions, libraries, and non-profit organizations such as science museums. The book contains eight parts, each emphasizing a different aspect of how to succeed with STEM. Part 1 emphasizes how hands-on activities that are both fun and educational can be used to further STEM awareness.

Parts 2 and 3 contain chapters on the uniting of STEM with Information Literacy. Innovative collection development ideas are discussed in Part 4 and Part 5 focuses on research and publishing. Outreach is the theme of Part 6 and the programs described in these chapters offer an array of ways to connect with students of all ages.

The final section of How to STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Education in Libraries addresses the funding of these programs. Librarians of all types will be pleased to discover easy-to-implement suggestions for collaborative efforts, many rich and diverse programming ideas, strategies for improving reference services and library instruction to speakers of English as a second language, marketing and promotional tips designed to welcome multicultural patrons into the library, and much more.

Описание: Preservation of historical documents and library related materials is a growing problem in all library types and institutions. Fortunately, editors Carol Smallwood and Elaine Williams have pulled together the wisdom of practicing professionals to elucidate how to cope with the many problems that arise when preserving, managing, and digitizing important collections. Preserving Local Writers, Genealogy, Photographs, Newspapers, and Related Materials contains informative chapters on physical preservation, collection management, cooperation with organizations and communities, various formats, and special projects. Each part covers the preservation of specific materials, from newspapers and scrapbooks to photographs and oral histories. In addition, chapters cover repair and restoration of materials, while taking into consideration the current state of funding for agencies with an interest in history. Contributors also shed light on how the racial, economic, and political dynamics of the past affect how collections are gathered, maintained, and presented today. Preserving Local Writers, Genealogy, Photographs, Newspapers, and Related Materials offers plenty to inspire anyone facing backlogs of unprocessed papers or boxes of artifacts. Stories of the rescue efforts of a group of volunteers, or the discovery of a lost diary, show that the hard work of preservation is well worth it. Libraries, archives, and historical and genealogical societies all have their role to play in preserving important historical materials, as do patrons, sponsors, and volunteers; such institutions and individuals will find this book extremely helpful in their preservation efforts.

Описание: "Have you found your unique purpose in life? Have you discovered the secret for success and happiness?"

If so, congratulations If not, read on...

I believe there's a special purpose for your life and you can find it. Finding and living your purpose is the most important thing you can ever do in life. It's the secret for true success and lasting happiness. It's the pathway to inner peace and source of endless satisfaction.

Your life is precious and your time is valuable. Don't waste it. Make the most of it. You are unique. You are irreplaceable. You have something to offer that no-one else in the world can give. Make this world a better place by doing what only you can do.

Some find their purpose almost by accident; others through a flash of inspiration. Sadly, some never find it and miss out on what could have been. But life doesn't have to be like that...

It took me a while to discover my own life's purpose. Since then I've sought to help others who've also been searching. During the past 30 years I've recognised patterns and similar themes that kept coming up. I've also kept a note of useful exercises that helped both myself and others travelling along on the same journey. This book captures what I've learnt and presents it in a structured yet thought-provoking way.

Within this book I will guide you through a simple yet powerful seven step process. Each step contains valuable exercises to help you gain fresh insights and then apply what you learn. You will discover how to:

• See life with a clearer perspective
• Work out what's really worthwhile in life
• Tune into your inner guidance system
• Explore your hopes and dreams
• Make the most of your skills and abilities
• Plan your future for greater success and fulfilment
• Keep yourself motivated and overcome challenges
