Assessment of Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories: Depositorship and Full-Text Availability
This research evaluates the success of open access self-archiving in several well-known institutional repositories. Two assessment factors have been applied to examine the current practice of self-archiving: depositorship and the availability of full text. This research discovers that the rate of author self-archiving is low and that the majority of documents have been deposited by a librarian or administrative staff. Similarly, the rate of full-text availability is relatively low, except for Australian repositories. By identifying different practices of self-archiving, repository managers can create new strategies for the operation of their repositories and the development of archiving policies
Free thinking - running
We've been running for two million years give or take. Shahidha Bari and Laurence Scott explore contemporary running as solitary inspiration and communal activity with the Geographer and 1999 Scottish Hill Running Champion, Hayden Lorimer, the artists Kai Syng Tan and Angus Farquhar, and the literary scholar and bare-foot artiste, Vybarr Cregan-Reid. Conversation ranges from feeling empowered on city streets to teaming up with the wind to the horrid history of the treadmill and explore whether Running deserves better representation in the arts. Guests: Vybarr Cregan-Reid - author of Footnotes How Running Makes Us Human Angus Farquhar, Creative Director of NVA Public Art, author of a blog 'The Grim Runner' Hayden Lorimer Running Geographer Kai Syng Tan, Artist and curator of a biennial festival Run Run Run Producer: Jacqueline Smith
Ka tere te vaka. Kai Kai rapanui
El kai kai es una práctica ancestral rapanui consistente en dar forma a un ideograma con hilos que contiene en su imagen una historia, la cual a veces se narra a través de una recitación llamada « patautau ». Según Ramón Campbell la práctica del kai kai es parte de la tradición más antigua de la cultura rapanui, lo que hace aún más significativo el sentido de esta destreza puesto que puede darnos grandes luces sobre la cultura rapanui antes de que su imaginario sea colonizado por occidente, siguiendo a Gruzinsky. Las lecturas que hasta ahora se han hecho del kai kai lo clasifican como un juego, lo que implica – con los ojos eurocéntricos y occidentales – que no sería una práctica trascendental en la cultura rapanui sino una práctica primordialmente infantil con el objetivo de entretener. Sin embargo esta práctica ha perdurado hasta la actualidad enseñándose oralmente al interior de las familias, en grupos de estudio y en el último tiempo en la educación formal. ¿ Es acaso esta clasificación del kai kai inocente o más bien da cuenta de una mirada colonizadora que ubica a esta práctica en lo que resultó más reconocible a los ojos occidentales ? Creemos que es interesante revisar la bibliografía existente respecto del kai kai y desentrañar algunos rasgos colonialistas resultantes de clasificar esta práctica como « mero juego », y la evolución o mantención de esa mirada en quienes han estudiado esta practica.Kai Kai is an ancient rapanui practice, consisting of giving shape to a spin storyteller ideogram, wich story is told trhough a recitation called « patautau ». Acordding to Ramón Campbell, the practice of kai kai is the oldest tradition of rapa nui culture, which makes it even more meaningful, since it can shed light on how rapa nui imaginary was before western colonization, following Gruzinsky. Untill now, interpretations of kai kai classify it as a game, wich implies -to eurocentric and western eyes- that it would not be any trascendental practice in rapa nui culture, but a mainly childish practice, with the one propouse of amuse. However, this practice endures untill now by oral teaching inside families, study groups and, reacently, in formal education. Is this kai kai classification inocent ? Or it rather shows a colonizing view of this practice, which puts it in a recognizable place to western eyes ? We believe it is an interesting task to review existing bibliography about kai kai, and unravel some of colonialist features emerging of this « mere game » classification, unraveling also the permanence or the evolution of this view in those who have studied the practice of kai kai
Magmatic switch-on and switch-off along the South China continental margin since the Permian: Transition from an Andean-type to a Western Pacific-type plate boundary
Detrital zircon provenance data for the Tananao schist in eastern Taiwan is consistent with its protolith being deposited on the South China continental margin at around, or soon after, 150 Ma, rather than being of an exotic origin and much older as previously suggested. The absence of ca. 200 Ma zircons agrees with the presence of a magmatic gap in the region after the orogenic and magmatic front migrated to central South China, due to a flat-slab subduction. The characteristic lack of input from interior South China (i.e., the lack of 1100–750 Ma and 470–420 Ma populations), and the immature nature of some of the schist units, suggest that they were sourced from the nearby coastal regions. On the other hand, they exhibit a dominant 190–150 Ma magmatic zircon population, suggesting the presence of abundant magmatic rocks of that age along the coastal regions. This, along with our newly discovered ca. 180 Ma I-type granites from eastern Zhejiang and other ca. 190–180 Ma magmatic rocks recently reported from the coastal regions, led us to propose that a new continental arc was initiated after ca. 190 Ma along the coastal region after a magmatic gap due to flat-slab subduction. This newly initiated arc likely persisted until ca. 90 Ma, and is represented by the I-type granitic rocks in eastern Taiwan. Slab roll-back likely caused the arc system to retreat towards the Pacific Ocean after 90 Ma, and ca. 60–17 Ma bimodal magmatism adjacent to the South China Sea signifies continental margin extension in the lead-up to, and during, the opening of the South China Sea. We thus argue that the continental margin of East Asia was transformed from an Andean-type plate margin at 280–90 Ma, to the present-day Western Pacific-type plate margin soon after 90 Ma

Wing pattern resembles to that of the male. Distribution and habitat. This subspecies is known only from well preserved natural forests in mountainous area of Baisha, Changjiang and Dongfang counties on Hainan Island, China. It prefers shrubs adjacent to bare rock in karst landscape or along stream, where its hostplants present. Host plant. The immature of this subspecies is apparently associated with the family Crassulaceae. Kalanchoe integra and Bryophyllum pinnatum, a naturalised plant with African origin, were utilized by larvae in the wild. Immature bionomics. ovum (Fig. 5) is laid singly on the underside of leaf blade. Once hatched, larva bores into leaf of hostplant as leaf miner and feeds on tissue in mesophyll layer (Fig. 6). Larva does not emerge unless the original leaf is completely consumed. Mature larva pupates on the underside of leaf of hostplant (Figs. 7–8). The entire immature stage, from egg to emergence of adult, takes 61–62 days (n=3) under indoor uncontrolled condition. Voltinism. Multivoltine, adult occurs all year round. Etymology. The name of the subspecies is dedicated to Alexander Lam’s family in Boston, USA, for their love and care to the senior author during his undergraduate study in Boston. Diagnosis. The male genitalia (Figs. 9–12) of T. n. lami resembles that of nominate subspecies and T. n. delhiensis in general, with long and tapering uncus, prominent brachium, broad valvae with harpe modified to long spine-shaped projection. The size of T. nyseus lami is similar to T. n. annamitica and both are the smallest among all subspecies. Interestingly, the wing pattern of T. nyseus lami seems like a combination of several other subspecies. First of all, the wavy outer margin of the orange band on upper hindwing and dark marginal ocelli from cell M1 to 2A on underside hindwing are features only found in three eastern subspecies, T. n. metana, T. n. annamitica and T. n. lami. However, dark spots in the middle of discoidal cell is a trait only shared by T. n. macbethi and T. n. lami. Furthermore, T. n. lami is similar to T. n. burmana the most in that the arrangement of distal band of central symmetry system, but all the spots are detached from the band of element “g” as defined by Nijhout (1991). Six distinctive underside patterns, assigned as A to F hereinto, can be identified among the nine subspecies: three subspecies, macbethi (A), burmana (B) and lami (C), have unique pattern and the rest three patterns are shared by three subspecies pairs, nyseus & delhiensis (D); khasiana & assamica (E); metana & annamitica (F), respectively.Published as part of Lo, Yik-Fui Philip, Li, Fei & Ding, Liang, 2017, Description of a new subspecies of Talicada nyseus (Guérin-Méneville, 1843) from Hainan, China (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae), with notes on the genus Talicada Moore, 1881, pp. 586-592 in Zootaxa 4269 (4) on pages 587-589, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4269.4.11, http://zenodo.org/record/58280
Information Literacy and Librarian-Faculty Collaboration: A Model for Success:
In the age of information explosion and technological advancement, issues of information storage, organization, access, and evaluation have become necessarily important in our societies. Addressing issues of information literacy and designing how they can be best integrated in students' learning process are of critical importance. Library professionals in the United States, particularly in the academia, have realized the importance of information literacy and have attempted in various ways to address these issues. The ultimate goal is to make information literacy an integral part of the academic curriculum, thus helping students to succeed not only during their years in college but also for their lifelong career choices. This article will look at ways of how information literacy can best be incorporated into students' academic experience, and how this process can make students' learning meaningful and successful. Specifically, the author will examine the model of librarian-faculty collaboration in integrating information literacy into the curriculum, as demonstrated in the Ohio Five Colleges' Information Literacy Program.Publisher version of this article is available at: http://www.white-clouds.com/iclc/cliej/cl24.ht
