    Library scientists have been actively considering the ways to improve various aspects of library activities recent decades. The most studied problems are the following: libraries innovative development in general, information systems updating, e-resources and services modernization, etc. The paper analyzes the history of creating the most significant complex information resources generated by the Branch of the State Public Scientific Technological Library of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It shows that both internal (human, technological) and external (reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences, emerging new software products or platforms) factors can evidently be reasons for upgrading some specific electronic products. Modernization of the library information resources can follow several areas: structure development, content updating, design improvement, changing generation technologies, hard- and software update, providing services based on resources, carrying out promotion activities. Using the e-resources property for continuous transformation, it’s possible to increase their life cycle significantly. At the same time, the main goal of modernizing library information resources is to improve their quality. The library information resources updating is a natural process in some extend permitting to improve content and service components of a resource for its providing in a modern form to a wide range of users. The choice of the resource improvement direction depends on its relevance, and developers’ competence level

    The article is devoted to the history of the library of the Society for the Study of Amursky Kray in the pre-revolutionary period. The library was opened almost simultaneously with the Society in 1884 and became the first scientific library of the Russian Far Eastern region. The core of the library collection was acquired mainly through donations and book-exchange, and the unique library collection of the Society for the Study of Amursky Kray was established. Through the book-exchange, the library was receiving periodicals and continuing editions, both domestic and foreign. The publishing practice of the Society for the Study of Amursky Kray contributed to the expansion of its reciprocal book-exchange contacts with other scientific institutions, which entailed in increase of acquisitions and steady growth of the collection.Despite its unpublic nature, the Library of the Society for the Study of Amursky Kray has made a serious contribution to the development of the book culture of the Russian Far Eastern region and become a cultural oasis, center for cultural legacy and advocate for scientific knowledge.Статья посвящена истории библиотеки Общества изучения Амурского края (ОИАК) в дореволюционный период. Библиотека, открытая в 1884 г., стала первой научной библиотекой Дальневосточного региона. Уникальный фонд библиотеки ОИАК сформировался преимущественно за счёт пожертвований и книгообмена, благодаря которому в библиотеку постоянно поступали периодические и продолжающиеся издания, как отечественные, так и зарубежные. Издательская практика ОИАК способствовала расширению книгообменных контактов с другими научными учреждениями, что влекло за собой поступление новых книг, увеличение фонда библиотеки. Несмотря на закрытый характер работы, библиотека ОИАК внесла определённый вклад в развитие книжной культуры Дальневосточного региона, стала очагом накопления духовных ценностей и проводником научных знаний

    Structures, enthalpies of formation, and ionization energies for the parent and binary mixed carbon, silicon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cubane derivatives: A G4MP2 theoretical study

    No full text
    Gas phase standard state (298.15 K, 1 atm) structures, enthalpies of formation, and ionization energies (IEs) were calculated at the G4MP2 composite method level of theory for the parent and binary mixed carbon, silicon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cubane derivatives. Increasing nitrogen content increases the enthalpies of formation for the carbon-nitrogen, nitrogen-phosphorus, and silicon-nitrogen binary cubanes, with the opposite enthalpies of formation trend for increasing phosphorus content within the carbon-phosphorus, nitrogen-phosphorus, and silicon-phosphorus derivatives. Varying carbon/silicon content in the carbon-silicon cubanes results in no general trends for enthalpies of formation. Isomerization enthalpies within the homolog groups having more than one isomer vary widely with atomic composition and substitution patterns. Increasing nitrogen content of the carbon-nitrogen and nitrogen-phosphorus derivatives increases the IE, increasing silicon content in the carbon-silicon cubanes and phosphorus content of the carbon-phosphorus cubanes decreases the IE, while no IE clear trends are evident based on relative atomic content for the silicon-nitrogen and silicon-phosphorus compounds. The binary mixed carbon, silicon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cubane derivatives are predicted to display potentially tunable thermodynamic stability and redox behavior depending on the atom identities and relative positions

    The 1 million words pathology report or the challenge of a reproducible and meaningful message

    No full text
    Many years have passed since the pathology report was all about a single-sentence diagnosis based on morphology. The pathology report is an invaluable source of data that needs to evolve from a narrative reporting to a synoptic reporting system by standardizing data elements to ensure consistency and structured formats that improve completeness, interoperability, and scalability across different health care systems. The convergence of technology, structured data, and artificial intelligence propels the field of pathology toward a future where the synthesis of information benefits not only health care professionals and patients but also serves as a wellspring of knowledge for machines, paving the way for unprecedented strides in data mining and health care innovation

    Thermodynamics of the Antiviral and Antiparkinsonian Drug Amantadine Hydrochloride: Condensed State Properties and Decomposition

    No full text
    © 2017 American Chemical Society. Heat capacities of the antiviral and antiparkinsonian drug amantadine hydrochloride in the crystalline state were measured by adiabatic and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range from 5 K to 470 K. Two unresolved low-enthalpy solid-to-solid phase transitions with peak maxima at 120.0 K and 123.1 K were detected. Thermodynamic functions for crystalline amantadine hydrochloride were derived from the data obtained. Decomposition of amantadine hydrochloride was studied by the Knudsen effusion method. Quantum chemical calculations supported completeness of the amantadine hydrochloride ionic pair disintegration under the effusion conditions. A data treatment model considering the difference in effusion rates of the decomposition products, anisotropy failure in the vicinity of the orifice, and vapor undersaturation in the effusion cell was developed. Thermodynamic parameters for the decomposition were thus derived and shown to be consistent with available literature data on decomposition of similar organic hydrochlorides and with the entropy of reaction calculated directly from the entropies of the decomposition reaction participants. The obtained set of thermodynamic properties of the medication is expected to provide new key information necessary for optimization of production and storage conditions. (Graph Presented)
