UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)
No full textThis draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive
databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate
to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators

Friends of the Greenwood Library Presents Marc Leepson
No full textOn Tuesday, September 11, 2012 the Friends of the Janet D. Greenwood Library hosted its fall event, which featured an evening with Marc Leepson. Leepson is a journalist, historian and the author of seven books, including Lafayette: Lessons in Leadership from the Idealist General (Palgrave/Macmillan, 2011), a concise biography of the famed Marquis de Lafayette
Impuretés et Systèmes Corrélés : des chaînes aux cuprates supraconducteurs
No full textJury : Henri Alloul, Claude Berthier, Philippe Bourges, Marc Gabay, Maurice Rice, Alain SacutoThis habilitation proposes a review of the effect of non magnetic or magnetic impurities in low dimensionnal strongly correlated systems. A first part deals with the effect of impurities on magnetic properties of spin chains and ladders. The second part shows what these effects become in high Tc superconductors, both in their normal and superconducting state. It is shown that the impurity can be used as an efficient local probe of the magnetism of these systems, especially when used together with NMR. We also propose a review of the present knowledge about the properties of chains, laders and more especially high Tc cuprates.Cette habilitation propose une revue de l'effet d'impuretés non magnétiques ou magnétiques dans des systèmes de fermions fortement corrélés de basse dimension. Dans une première partie, on montre l'effet des ces impuretés sur les propriétés magnétiques de chaînes ou échelles de spin. Dans une seconde partie, on montre comment cet effet se transforme dans le cas des supraconducteurs à haute température critique, tant dans leur état normal que supraconducteur. Il est démontré que l'impureté peut servir d'outil efficace et original pour sonder les propriétés magnétiques locales de ces systèmes, en particulier en utilisant conjointement la Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire. Au passage, une revue est proposée des propriétés physiques des chaînes, echelles, et surtout des supraconducteurs à haute Tc
Populism, populists, european democracies and European Union. The Italian case
No full textIn this chapter, the author starts by a necessary clarification of some notions as populism and fascism because there is a lot of confusion in the public debate but also a lot of academic controversies. The debate has been immediately re-launched in September 2022, after the victory at the general elections of Giorgia Meloni’s head of Brothers of Italy, a party who has a neo-fascist legacy, and after her nomination as chief of the Italian government. Marc Lazar concludes this first part of the chapter by giving what he calls an operative definition of populism, populist and fascism. In a second part, the author analyses Meloni’s party Brothers of Italy and proposes a characterisation of this party which is evolving. In a third part of the chapter, Marc Lazar reflects on what does Meloni and her party on Italian democracy and on the European Union but also what the Italian democracy and the European Union do to Meloni and Brothers of Italy. For the author, the Italian democracy and the European Union demonstrate a high capacity of resilience to the populist challenge and a propension of acculturation of the populists’ leader and party. He concludes pointing out that is a working progress, the end of which is unknown
Managing Technology Risks Through Technological Proficiency: Guidance for Local Governments
No full textLike most organizations, local governments face challenges managing technology, the critical resource to meet evolving public service expectations. But benefits associated with adapting the latest technology come with risks, some more apparent than others.
This report details the problems facing municipal officials as they try to maximize the benefits of technology for their communities and constituents in the face of cybersecurity, legal, operational, financial, reputational and societal risks.
The report concludes that top municipal officials must create and maintain an environment of “technological proficiency.” That includes creating a process for making technology decisions, developing an annually reviewed technology plan that is tied to the budget, instituting a “cyber hygiene” training program for all employees in proper computer security practices, and making sure that agency technology is competently managed.
The report is supplemented by a "Best Practices and Resources Guide" that organizations can use to achieve technology proficiency. It provides best practices based on an organization's technology profile.Report and Supplement were prepared for the Municipal Excess Liability Fund, a joint insurance fund of over 600 New Jersey local government agencies
Confinement and Superconductivity at the LaAlO3/SrTiO3 Interface
No full textThe interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, two good band insulators, was found to be conducting
[1], and, in some doping range, superconducting with a maximum critical temperature of about 300
mK [2,3].
I will discuss in this presentation the electronic structure, superconductivity, and the Tc versus
doping phase diagram of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 and ((LaAlO3)0.5-(SrTiO3)0.5)-SrTiO3 interfaces. I will
also compare superconductivity at these interfaces with superconductivity in bulk doped SrTiO3 [4].
