Engaging Local Libraries with the New Brunswick Community A Collaborative Case Study Research Initiative: Final Report
No full textHow can libraries deepen engagement with their communities by working with citizens to address challenges related to healthy living? To explore this question, we conducted a project in conjunction with the New Brunswick Free Public Library (NBFPL) in a mid-sized, highly diverse U.S. city (New Brunswick NJ), and community members from representative diverse ethnic groups. Our project aimed to apply the Kettering Foundation’s 6 democratic practices to help libraries engage with citizens from marginalized populations. More specifically, we intended to enhance library-community relationships through community conversations or “forums” that uncovered issues of common concern around health and well being, with a special emphasis on engaging Latino residents of New Brunswick. Each community conversation, or “forum”, offered a situation or meeting in which people could talk about a problem or matter of public interest in a safe, moderated space. Through this case study approach using community conversations focused on health and well being, we examined the process and outcomes of implementing this collaboration and considered implications of this case example for how public libraries serving diverse populations can grow and sustain meaningful connections with the public and foster civic participation.
This project was part of a learning exchange with the Kettering Foundation entitled “Libraries and the Public: Returning to Democratic Roots” that focused on exploring ways that libraries can work with ordinary citizens and communities to address issues of common concern. The exchange also included the Multnomah County (Portland OR), Houston, Cincinnati, and Topeka public libraries. The Kettering Foundation conducts research around the question: “What does it take to make democracy work as it should?

Predominance of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus -ST88 and New ST1797 causing Wound Infection and Abscesses.
No full textAlthough there has been a worldwide emergence and spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), little is known about the molecular epidemiology of MRSA in Tanzania. In this study, we characterized MRSA strains isolated from clinical specimens at the Bugando Medical Centre, Tanzania, between January and December 2008. Of 160 S. aureus isolates from 600 clinical specimens, 24 (15%) were found to be MRSA. Besides molecular screening for the Panton Valentine leukocidin (PVL) genes by PCR, MRSA strains were further characterized by Multi-Locus Sequence Typing (MLST) and spa typing. Despite considerable genetic diversity, the spa types t690 (29.1%) and t7231 (41.6%), as well as the sequence types (ST) 88 (54.2%) and 1797 (29.1%), were dominant among clinical isolates. The PVL genes were detected in 4 isolates; of these, 3 were found in ST 88 and one in ST1820. Resistance to erythromycin, clindamicin, gentamicin, tetracycline and co-trimoxazole was found in 45.8%, 62.5%, 41.6%, 45.8% and 50% of the strains, respectively. We present the first thorough typing of MRSA at a Tanzanian hospital. Despite considerable genetic diversity, ST88 was dominant among clinical isolates at the Bugando Medical Centre. Active and standardized surveillance of nosocomial MRSA infection should be conducted in the future to analyse the infection and transmission rates and implement effective control measures
