Co-creating libraries? Who should be drawing the map of the library landscape?
No full textKEYNOTE SPEECH.
Co-creation is receiving increasing interest as a way to involve users in the design and development of goods and services in many areas of life, including libraries. The concept of co-creation challenges established roles and relationships between “producers” and “consumers” of services by suggesting that neither the producers nor the consumers are able to create appropriate services alone, rather services should be co- created, i.e. created together. Thus, while co-creation as a term is new, the basic idea is not. It draws on normative ideals with an impressive intellectual heritage, such as democratic citizenship and civil society.
In his talk, Christian will sum up on what we know about co-creation and discuss its relevance for the library landscape. The discussion centers around the question: Who should be drawing the map of the library landscape?

Et kvantitativt forsøk på styrken til tre forskjellige vevteiper
Get PDFForsøkene som gir grunnlag til denne rapporten har testet om all duct tape er like sterk gjennom to delforsøk, et for limeevne og et for styrke. Testobjektene er duct tape fra; Tesa, Gorilla og Clas Ohlson. Begge delforsøk bruker en metode hvor teipen løsner fra en overflate eller ryker av at en tyngde gjør arbeid på den. Resultatene viser at det er forskjell på duct tape og at Tesa har gjennomsnittlig best limeevne på metall med 2369,5 gram, og Gorilla er sterkest i lengden med et gjennomsnitt på 36,75 kg. Bare 4 delforsøk ble utført med hver metode, men resultatene er likevel gode ettersom at testmetoden er god
Hvilken gjærdeig av hvete, med ulik mengde vann, hever mest?
Get PDFI denne studien ble det undersøkt om gjærdeig av hvetemel med mer vann hever raskere enn gjærdeig med mindre vann. I studien ble det totalt laget ni deiger. Tre deiger bestod av 0,20 L vann, tre av 0,25 L og tre av 0,35 L. Tre og tre deiger, med ulik mengde vann, ble laget samtidig, i tilfeldig rekkefølge. Videre ble de hevet like lenge, under de samme forholdene, og målt hvert 20. minutt. Resultatene viste at deigen med 0,25 L vann, vannmengden i oppskriften, i gjennomsnitt hadde størst volum etter 80 minutter. Statistisk analyse av resultatene viste derimot at det ikke var en signifikant forskjell mellom hevevolumet til de ulike deigene. Konklusjonen på denne studien var at det ikke var en sammenheng mellom deigvæske og hevevolum
To Remain or Not to Remain Silent: The Evolution of The Privilege against Self-incrimination Ten Years After Marttinen v. Finland
Get PDFAccording to the judgment of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in Marttinen v. Finland, a debtor has the right to remain silent in a debt enforcement enquiry given that the following conditions are met: first, that the inquiry is held concurrently with a criminal procedure; and second, that the same questions of evidence are investigated in both of the concurrent proceedings. Under these circumstances, the debtor enjoys the privilege against self-incrimination in the enforcement enquiry. The scope of this article is to examine whether the debtor has not only the right to remain silent, but also the right to give false statements. The assessment of this problem is built on the moral grounds of the privilege itself, but also on the law reforms and changes in case law after the judgment in the Marttinen case. As a conclusion of this article, the problem of false statements should not be evaluated by equating silence with false statements, but by considering two basic questions. First, would the right to remain silent suffice to protect the privilege against self-incrimination; and second, whether the motives for providing false statements express the aim to achieve something else than protection against inappropriate use of coercive power
Increasing Salience of Crime Control in Finnish Parliamentary Data from the 1970s to the 2000s
Get PDFIn Finland, a post-war expansion of the welfare state was associated with a decline in the use of imprisonment. The 1990s marked the beginning of a more ambivalent era in Finnish criminal justice. How does this turning point appear in the public discourse on crime by political decision-makers? All parliamentary questions and members’ initiatives from 1975 to 2010 were examined with a keyword-based quantitative search, and further content analysis was conducted on data made up of 1589 written parliamentary questions about crime control from 1970 to 2010. The relative prevalence of criminal policy issues rose significantly in the early 1990s. During the same period, the political initiative moved towards the right and the views of the left seemed to move closer to the right concurrently. Although stances became tougher, expressions of leniency were in the minority before the 1990s too, which stresses the significance of the general level of political attention itself. Developments regarding specific types of crime are discussed.

Criminal Responsibility and Challenges in the Criminal Justice System for People with Intellectual Disability in Norway
Get PDFThe purpose of this article is to present and discuss Norwegian legislation concerning intellectual disability and criminal responsibility. Current legislation has an internationally unique feature, in that the rules governing criminal responsibility are based on what is known as the medical principle. This implies that criminal responsibility is determined by the defendant’s mental health status at the time of the crime. Norwegian criminal law does not require any causal or correlational relationship between the mental condition and the crime, as do most other jurisdictions. A brief description of historical perspectives and the Norwegian criminal justice system with regard to offenders with intellectual disabilities is also included
A Single-Case, Mixed Methods Study Exploring the Role of Music Listening in Vibroacoustic Treatment
No full textUn caso di studio di metodi misti per esplorare il ruolo dell\u27ascolto musicale nel trattamento vibroacustico
Il dolore cronico è un problema diffuso, comunemente accompagnato da depressione e ansia. Esso ha dimostrato di alterare l\u27elaborazione cerebrale all\u27interno dei circuiti emotivi e del sistema di ricompensa, indicando un possibile legame tra dolore e disturbi dell\u27umore comorbidi. Il sollievo al dolore può essere raggiunto alleviando i sintomi depressivi e ansiosi. Il rilassamento è importante per alleviarlo e suscitare distensione attraverso l\u27ascolto musicale. Ciò è dimostrato per alleviare dolore, depressione, ansia e disagio in presenza di altri. Oltre agli stimoli uditivi, il trattamento vibroacustico – l\u27applicazione tattile della vibrazione sonora sinusoidale a bassa frequenza, più l\u27ascolto musicale e l\u27interazione terapeutica – ha dimostrato di essere utile per alleviare questi sintomi. Anche se la combinazione di ascolto musicale e basse frequenze è stata esplorata in precedenza, il ruolo dell\u27ascolto musicale all\u27interno del contesto di trattamento vibroacustico è ancora sconosciuto. È stato condotto uno studio crossover di metodo misto con una cliente affetta da dolore cronico e disturbi dell\u27umore comorbido, in quattro sessioni con ascolto musicale e quattro sessioni senza. I risultati quantitativi hanno mostrato che la cliente era più rilassata, meno ansiosa e aveva meno dolore dopo le sessioni musicali. I risultati qualitativi hanno mostrato che, in un primo momento, a causa della sua grave ansia la cliente non poteva rilassarsi senza ascoltare musica, ma poi ha imparato a usare la musica come distrattore dai suoi pensieri per rilassarsi, e che anche il silenzio era altrettanto importante per lei; ciò dipendeva dal fatto che era lei a fare la scelta in base alle sue esigenze, le quali in precedenza erano state difficili.
Traduzione di Claudio CominardiEine Einzelfallstudie im Mixed-Methods-Design zur Untersuchung der Rolle von Musikhören in der vibroakustischen Behandlung
Chronische Schmerzen sind ein weit verbreitetes Problem, das häufig von Depressionen und Angstzuständen begleitet wird. Chronische Schmerzen verändern nachweislich die neurologische Verarbeitung innerhalb der emotionalen und Belohnungskreisläufe und weisen auf einen möglichen Zusammenhang zwischen Schmerz und komorbiden affektiven Störungen hin. Eine Schmerzlinderung kann durch die Linderung depressiver und ängstlicher Symptome erreicht werden. Entspannung ist wichtig für die Schmerzlinderung und das Auslösen von Entspannung durch Musikhören kann unter anderem Schmerzen, Depressionen, Angst und Unbehagen lindern. Neben den auditiven Reizen hat sich die vibroakustische Behandlung – die taktile Anwendung von niederfrequenten sinusförmigen Schallschwingungen plus Musikhören innerhalb einer therapeutischen Beziehung – als vorteilhaft erwiesen, um diese Symptome zu lindern. Obwohl die Kombination von Musikhören und tiefen Frequenzen bereits untersucht wurde, ist die Rolle des Musikhörens innerhalb des vibroakustischen Behandlungskontextes unbekannt. Es wurde eine Einzelfallstudie in einem Mixed-Methods-Crossover-Design mit einer Klientin mit chronischen Schmerzen und affektiver Störung durchgeführt, vier Sitzungen mit Musikhören und vier Sitzungen ohne. Quantitative Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Klientin entspannter sowie weniger ängstlich war und weniger Schmerzen nach den Musiksitzungen hatte. Qualitative Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Klientin sich zunächst aufgrund ihrer starken Angst nicht ohne das Musikhören entspannen konnte, aber lernte die Musik zur Ablenkung von ihren Gedanken zum Entspannen zu nutzen, aber auch, dass ihr die Stille ebenso wichtig war; diese hing davon ab, ob sie ihre eigenen Bedürfnisse in die Entscheidung miteinbezog, was für sie zuvor schwierig gewesen war.
Übersetzung: Josephine GeipelChronic pain is a widespread issue accompanied commonly by depression and anxiety. Chronic pain has been shown to alter brain processing within the emotional and reward circuits, pointing towards a possible link between pain and comorbid mood disorders. Pain relief may be achieved by alleviating depressive and anxious symptoms. Relaxation is important for pain relief and eliciting relaxation through music listening is shown to relieve pain, depression, anxiety, and discomfort among others. In addition to auditory stimuli, Vibroacoustic treatment – the tactile application of low frequency sinusoidal sound vibration, plus music listening and therapeutic interaction – has been shown to be beneficial for relieving these symptoms. Although the combination of music listening and low frequencies has been previously explored, the role of the music listening within the vibroacoustic treatment context is unknown. A single-case, mixed method crossover study was conducted with a client suffering from chronic pain and comorbid mood disorders, four sessions with music listening, and four sessions without. Quantitative outcomes showed the client was more relaxed, less anxious, and had less pain after the music sessions. Qualitative findings showed that the client at first could not relax without the music listening because of her severe anxiety, but learned to use music as a distractor from her thoughts to relax, but also that silence was equally important for her; these hinged on her making the choice based on her needs, which had previously been difficult for her.Une étude à Méthodes Uniques et Mixtes Explorant le rôle de l\u27ècoute de la Musique dans le Traitement Vibroacoustique
La douleur chronique est un problème répandu accompagné de dépression et d\u27anxiété. Il a été démontré que la douleur chronique altère le traitement du cerveau au sein des circuits émotionnel et de récompense, indiquant ainsi un lien possible entre la douleur et les troubles de l’humeur comorbides. Le soulagement de la douleur peut être obtenu en soulageant les symptômes dépressifs et anxieux. La relaxation est importante pour le soulagement de la douleur et il est démontré que la relaxation par l\u27écoute de la musique soulage la douleur, la dépression, l\u27anxiété et l\u27inconfort, entre autres. Outre les stimuli auditifs, le traitement vibroacoustique - application tactile de vibrations sonores sinusoïdales à basse fréquence, écoute de la musique et interaction thérapeutique - s\u27est révélé bénéfique pour le soulagement de ces symptômes. Bien que la combinaison de l\u27écoute de musique et des basses fréquences ait déjà été explorée, le rôle de l\u27écoute de musique dans le contexte du traitement vibroacoustique est inconnu. Une étude croisée avec méthode mixte portant sur un seul cas a été menée auprès d\u27un client souffrant de douleurs chroniques et de troubles de l\u27humeur comorbides, quatre séances avec écoute musicale et quatre séances sans. Les résultats quantitatifs ont montré que le client était plus détendu, moins anxieux et qu\u27il ressentait moins de douleur après les séances de musique. Les résultats qualitatifs ont montré que la cliente au début ne pouvait pas se détendre sans écouter de la musique à cause de sa profonde anxiété; ceux-ci dépendaient d\u27elle pour faire le choix en fonction de ses besoins, auparavant difficiles pour elle.

An Exploration into the Perception of Music Interventions in Hospitals amongst Healthcare Professionals
No full textIn order to raise awareness of how music can be used beneficially in hospitals, it is necessary to further understand the perception of music interventions amongst those working in this setting. A mixed methods approach was employed. Thirty-one healthcare professionals completed an online survey or interview asking how much live music existed in hospitals, their knowledge of music interventions, and expected effects. Attitudes towards introducing live music, where this would be appropriate, and willingness to learn more were also investigated. Four participants also took part in a follow up study. Live music was found to be uncommon, with no standardised internal system to enable it. Participants had little knowledge of research surrounding the use of music in medical settings. However, only 36% of this sample of healthcare professionals were willing to learn more.
Observing a music session had a significant effect on the perception of the efficacy of music. Having observed a live session, healthcare professionals thought it would have a long term benefit to patients. There was interest in increasing the amount of live music on the ward and integrating a music therapist into the healthcare team. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of increasing awareness of music interventions amongst healthcare professionals, through observing music sessions and presenting evidence of the benefits of these during training programmes and Continued Professional Development (CPD) in order to create a more positive perception of music within hospitals
