In 1919, a project headed by Maude Cass, the editor of the 1919 Redskin; Professor Maroney of the Department of History; Margaret Walters, Librarian; and J.W. Cantwell, the College President, was undertaken to survey these veterans. The surveys were returned along with photographs, letters, and newspaper clippings documenting these veterans’ experiences during World War I
Megalestes heros Needham 1930
No full textMegalestes heros Needham, 1930 (Fig. 3e; 4e; 5c, p; 6g) Megalestes heros Needham, 1930: 229–230 [Fujian, Sichuan]; Asahina 1985b: 11, 13, figs. 32–33 [Guadun, Fujian]. Megalestes suensoni Asahina, 1956: 213–216, figs. 12–14 [Tien-Mu-Shan, Chekiang]; Chao 1965, proposed a junior synonym. This is a large, endemic Chinese species mainly occurring in Fujian and Zhejiang. Needham (1930) did not provide any figures for this species. Asahina (1956) described M. suensoni on base of a female specimen from Tianmushan, Zhejiang. After carefully studying another female specimen collected from the type locality of M. suensoni Chao (1965) believed it was a junior synonym of M. heros, which was finally accepted by Asahina (1985b). Chao (1965) also doubted one of the type specimen of M. heros (the teneral male from Sichuan) was true of this species. We have explored Sichuan for many years and have never found M. heros, but the similar-sized species M. omeiensis is present. We agree with Chao (1965) to believe that Needham confused these two species in his original study.Published as part of Yu, Xin & Xue, Junli, 2020, A review of the damselfly genus Megalestes Selys, 1862 (Insecta: Odonata Zygoptera: Synlestidae) using integrative taxonomic methods, pp. 245-270 in Zootaxa 4851 (2) on page 260, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4851.2.2, http://zenodo.org/record/440747

Tikuna bilineata Needham & Murphy, comb. n.
No full textTikuna bilineata (Needham & Murphy) comb. n. Choroterpes bilineata Needham & Murphy 1924: 48; Traver 1947: 156. The genus Tikuna was established by Savage et al. (2005) and Choroterpes atramentum Traver, 1947, was designated as the type species. Following this publication, two species from South and Central America remain incorrectly placed in Choroterpes. The first, Choroterpes bilineata Needham & Murphy, 1924, originally described from female imagos and male subimagos from La Chorrera, Putumayo Dist., Peru (now a part of Colombia), also belongs to the genus Tikuna, requiring the new combination Tikuna bilineata. The holotype and paratypes (Cornell University) were studied by one of us (H.M. Savage); additional specimens deposited at the U. S. National Museum of Natural History, Florida A&M University, and the Zoologische Sammlung des Bayerischen Staates were recorded from Brazil, Ecuador, Surinam, and Venezuela. New records for T. bilineata follow: BRAZIL: 1 female imago, Pará State, Rio Cururu, about 100 km above Mission Cururu, at light, 25 –I– 1962, E.J. Fittkau. ECUADOR: Pastaza Prov., coll. J. Cohen: 37 female imagos, Tzapino, 32 km NE Tigueno, 1 ° 11 ' S, 77 ° 14 ' W, 400 m, 25 –V– 1976; 2 female imagos, Limoncocha (70 miles SE), 30 –V– 1976; 3 female imagos, Cononaco, 30 –V– 1976. SURINAM: 1 female imago, Wijne Dist., Moengo, Boven, 1 / 28 –V– 1927, P.P. Babiy. VENEZUELA: Zulia State: 1 male subimago, Dist. Mara, Río Socuy, Campamento Corpozulia, 50 km W of Carrasquero, 6 / 7 –X– 1979, H.M. Savage & R.A. Romero; 1 female imago, Perija El Tucuco, Mission El Tucuco, Río El Tucuco, 1 / 2 km from church, 1 / 5 –X– 1979, H.M. Savage.Published as part of Peters, J. G., Flowers, R. W., Hubbard, M. D., Domínguez, E. & Savage, H. M., 2005, New records and combinations for Neotropical Leptophlebiidae (Ephemeroptera), pp. 51-60 in Zootaxa 1054 on page 52, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17006

M-Libraries: Information use on the move
No full textWhen people talk about mobile libraries, they tend to mean a bus or truck that has been kitted out as a roving branch library. However with a growing number of people accessing the internet from their pocket PCs and mobile phones, libraries are investigating ways to deliver their services to mobile phones and other small-screen devices so their customers can access them any time anywhere. This can be as simple as sending text message alerts about reservations becoming available or overdue books, or as complex as the Athabasca University Library’s Digital Reading room, which allows readers to access full eBooks and journal articles through their library’s subscriptions on any mobile device. These services have collectively become known as ‘m-libraries’
