Head (Fig. 3) dark greyish brown, tinged with creamy white, white along dorsal margin of eye; neck tufts white, extending inward from lateral side. Labial palpus with basal segment shining white; second and third segments creamy white on dorsal surface, black on ventral surface; third segment shorter than second, pointed at apex. Antenna with scape black, tinged with creamy white terminally; flagellum black on dorsal surface, creamy white on ventral surface, ciliate ventrally in male. Haustellum covered with white scales basally. Collar creamy white, tinged with dark brown basally. Thorax and tegula dark greyish brown, tinged with creamy white scales that become denser posteriorly. Forewing narrowly elongate, lanceolate, basal 2/3 parallel sided, distal 1/3 narrowed to pointed apex; dark greyish brown, covered with dense creamy white scales except sparse on anterior 1/3 of basal half; costal margin creamy white from distal 1/3 or from middle to before apex; fold with a narrow creamy white streak; cilia dark grey, tinged with creamy white around apex. Hindwing greyish brown; cilia deep bronzed yellow. Fore- and midlegs greyish brown on ventral surface, greyish or dirty white on dorsal surface; hindleg whitish yellow except tarsus black on ventral surface. Abdomen greyish brown. Male genitalia (Fig. 10): Uncus strong, as long as height of tegumen; sub-rectangular, slightly narrowed from base to 3/4; distal 1/4 deeply and widely concave at middle in semicircle, forming strong lateral lobes extending obliquely outward to narrowly rounded apex; ventrodistal 2/5 with large flake-like sub-trapezoidal lateral processes, joined anteromedially, each extending from anteromiddle obliquely upward to apex of each lobe, wider at base, slightly narrowed to bluntly rounded apex, with fine hairs. Gnathos with lateral arms widely banded; distal process beak-like, swollen medially, narrowed to pointed apex distally. Tegumen sub-trapezoidal. Valva broadly fused basally, slightly longer than tegumen, club-shaped, dilated and setose distally. Vinculum very narrow, almost arched horizontally. Phallus stout, longer than tegumen; basal 1/4 ovate, narrowed from basal 1/4 to approximately basal 1/3, then widened to middle; distal half bilobed, each lobe narrowed at base, widened to blunt apex, with a few apical denticles, slightly asymmetrical: left lobe rectangular distally, right lobe inverted triangular distally, wider than left lobe apically; basally joined teniform flakes from beyond ventral 1/3 extending to distal 1/4 of left lobe and to distal 1/3 of right lobe respectively, with spine-like process from between base of two flakes. Segment VIII (Fig. 11). Tergum sub-rectangular; posterior margin with two long clavate processes dilated distally and approximately as long as tergum; anterior margin laterally with triangular processes narrowed to pointed apex, as long as posterior processes. Sternum narrow sub-rectangular, arched on posterior margin, with paired processes arising from anterior margin, slender and clubbed. Female genitalia (Fig. 12). Papillae anales with dorsal surface quadrate, setose; ventral surface triangular, sclerotized, produced to small uniformly narrow process posteriorly. Apophyses posteriores slightly more than two times length of apophyses anteriores. Sterigma strong, inverted V-shaped; posterior margin rounded, narrowly and shortly incised at middle; anterolateral lobes broadly banded, slightly narrowed anteriorly. Ostium bursae small and rounded. Antrum thin and short. Ductus bursae slender. Corpus bursae elongate elliptical. Diagnosis. This species is similar to S. hostilis Nupponen, 2005 in appearance by the forewing having a pale streak along the fold and in the male genitalia by having a bifurcate phallus and uncus. It can be distinguished by the forewing having a narrow creamy white streak but lacking any spots along the fold, and by the male genitalia with a club-shaped valva. In S. hostilis, the forewing has a broader white streak and three blackish brown spots along the fold, and the valva is sub-triangular. Distribution. China (Ningxia). Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Latin fusti- and valva, in reference to the club-shaped valva in the male genitalia.Published as part of Lou, Kang, You, Wanxue, Huang, Zhilin & Li, Houhun, 2018, Notes on scythridid moths in Habahu National Nature Reserves, with description of one new species (Lepidoptera: Scythrididae), pp. 349-362 in Zootaxa 4369 (3) on pages 350-351, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4369.3.3, http://zenodo.org/record/113582
Assessment of Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories: Depositorship and Full-Text Availability
No full textThis 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

Information Literacy and Librarian-Faculty Collaboration: A Model for Success:
No full textIn 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

Applying the NISO Metasearch Initiative Scheme to Enhance E-Resources Management at Rutgers University Library
No full textThis paper discusses problems in the management of library e-resources and attempts to identify potential solutions to the problems. By describing an e-resources enhancement project taken by Rutgers University Libraries, this paper points to the importance of providing contextually-rich metadata and reorganizing the accessibility of e-resources on a library’s website. It introduces how this Rutgers project adopted the National Information Standards Organization Metasearch Initiative to support the identification of appropriate e-collections for metaseaching. The outcomes of the project have facilitated a dynamic display of relevant e-resources to library users as an effective way of automatic access to library e-collections.Peer reviewe
A Metadata Manager's Role in Collaborative Projects: The Rutgers University Libraries Experience
No full textPurpose – This article discusses the roles and responsibilities of a metadata manager in collaborative digital projects.
Methodology – It describes the general requirements for metadata management, and introduces some scenarios in the practices of digital projects by the Rutgers University Libraries to support the generalized definition. A workflow of metadata management is illustrated.
Practical implications – With an explicit definition of the roles and responsibilities of the metadata manager, many other digital libraries that need to develop a new or optimize the existing workflow may find the Rutgers experience useful as reference.
Originality – Very few articles have explored this topic although the functions of metadata in the development of digital projects have been talked extensively.Peer reviewe
Factors to Assess Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories
No full textThis paper proposes a group of factors that may be used to assess the success of open access self-archiving. It concentrates on self-archiving in institutional repositories. The authors emphasize the importance of examining content materials, particularly the availability of full text versus abstracts and the deposits archived by authors versus by others.Peer reviewe
Batch Loading in Metadata Creation: A Case Study the Rutgers University Libraries Experience
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this article is to describe a workflow of automated batch loading metadata from existing text to a database.
Methodology/Approach – It introduces a case for the experience of metadata creation at Rutgers University Libraries in a collaborative digital project with the Hoboken Public Library in New Jersey.
Findings – It is found that a well-designed workflow is crucial to the success of metadata batch loading. It is also found that the metadata manager needs to collaborate with people of different roles and work carefully with data reorganization and transferring.
Practical Implications – Metadata creation and management is an integrated component of any digital project. Our experience in metadata batch loading has practical significance that may be incorporated into the practice of other metadata projects. The workflow introduced in this article will provide valuable example for librarians and information professionals to consider or redesign their own digital efforts.
Originality – Based on our real exercise, this workflow has been proven to be unique and useful. It was, after the writing of this article, applied to a new collaborative digital project and once again fulfilled the requirements for another batch transferring process.Peer reviewe
