Since the second edition of this must-have book was published in late 2009, libraries have undergone profound changes, primarily linked to advances in technology. We've seen the debut of RDA, the release of new Pew Research library and Internet use data, and the establishment of digital repositories, community MakerSpaces, and "community reads" programs. Of course, libraries have also been affected by the expanding use of social media. This thoroughly updated title addresses all these changes and more, bringing you up to date on the monumental shifts impacting librarianship.
The book is designed to introduce LIS students to the profession, preparing them to enter an exciting and evolving world. It clarifies the changing roles and responsibilities of library professionals, new paradigms for evaluating information, and characteristics and functions of today's library personnel. Among other subjects, chapters cover preparing materials for use, circulation, reference services, ethics in the information age, Internet trends, and job search basics. References, websites, and publications at the end of every chapter point to further resources, and appendices supply information such as policies, the library bill of rights, and the Freedom to Read statement.

Описание: Happy Mind, Happy Life From the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Unlimited Memory comes a new book on finding happiness in life using the power of your mind. The search for happiness is fundamental for all humans, and the answers lie within the depths of your mind. What is happiness? What causes it? How do you hold onto it? What makes it go away? These questions have led to many philosophical debates over thousands of years. The philosophers of Greece were famous for their quest to define the pillars of "the good life." Faith-based movements have painstakingly crafted dogmas and prescribed behaviors in pursuit of ultimate peace and joy. Academic studies have been concentrated on finding the answer to "the optimal life experience." Governments have professed to craft policies to promote the overall well-being of their citizens. Every day, ordinary dinner table discussions are, at heart, a dialogue in search of a happy life. Happiness is Unique to You What makes one person happy may make another miserable. There is no one key to happiness for everyone. Instead, the answers lie within you. In The Happy Mind, you'll learn to find your own personal answers to your most important questions. What makes you happy? What changes can you make to bring more happiness into your life? And how can you let go of old habits, beliefs, and situations that no longer fulfill you? The aim of this book is not to push a specific definition of happiness. Instead, you'll discover valuable insights that will allow you to create lasting happiness instead of being driven by short-term pleasure-seeking. In this book you will learn:
How people look for happiness in all the wrong places, and how you can avoid these "happiness traps" that keep you stuck and unfulfilled
Why most people mistake pleasure for happiness, and how this simple mistake causes you to lose sight of what really matters to you
The nine common qualities that super happy people share (and how you can apply them to brighten up your life)
The key traits of unhappiness (and the most important behaviors you should avoid)
Many easy-to-grasp suggestions that can be viewed daily to enhance your capacity to live a happy life.

Название: Joss Whedon`s Dollhouse: Confounding Purpose, Confusing Identity ISBN: 1442233125 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781442233126 Издательство: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers Рейтинг: Цена: 133760.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Though it lasted barely more than a season, Dollhouse continues to intrigue viewers as one of Joss Whedon s most provocative forays into series television. The program centered on men and women who have their memories and personalities repeatedly wiped and replaced with new ones by a shadowy corporation dedicated to fulfilling the whims of the rich. This chilling scenario was used to tell stories about big issues power and resistance, freedom and servitude, class and gender while always returning to its central themes of identity and individuality. In Joss Whedon s Dollhouse: Confounding Purpose, Confusing Identity, Sherry Ginn, Alyson Buckman, and Heather M. Porter have brought together fourteen diverse essays that showcase the series complex vision of the future. Contributors probe deeply into the fictional universe of the show by considering the motives of the wealthy clients and asking what love means when personalities are continually remade. Other essays consider the show s relations to politics, philosophy, psychology, and representations of race and gender on screen. Several essays explore the show s complex relationship to transhumanism: considering the dark potential for dehumanization and abuse that lurks beneath the promise of turning bodies into temporary vessels for immortal, downloadable personalities. Though a short-lived series, Dollhouse has been hailed as one of television s most thoughtful explorations of classic science-fiction themes. The first serious treatment of this landmark show, Joss Whedon s Dollhouse will be of interest to science-fiction scholars and Whedon fans alike.

Описание: Jillian Ginn, educated in Education and Psychology, has faced a fairly tumultuous personal life. In 2006, Jillian Ginn's only son was diagnosed as acutely autistic. In 2009, with her marriage in tatters, Jillian instigated what turned out to be an expensive and abrasive divorce. In 2014, her youngest daughter was hit by a car and acquired a brain injury. In 2015, her home was burnt to the ground and her beloved son died of smoke inhalation. In 2018, Jillian was diagnosed with a disability which inhibits her ability to walk independently. This is a must-read memoir, a collection of stories inspired by the author's resilient, loving son. The strong message conveyed throughout focuses on learning to live in acceptance whilst fostering personal peace by giving with love, even when one's life's plans fail and trauma unexpectantly re-visits.
