A rare opportunity to discover international trends and developments in access to government information is presented to you in selected papers from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Middle East , Oceania and Russia. Originally presented at seminars and open sessions of the IFLA Government Information and Official Publications Section (GIOPS) over the past five years, the papers have been thoroughly reviewed and updated by their authors. As this volume illustrates, providing access to government information in whatever form presents enormous challenges. Issues range from basic to sophisticated: public access, including censorship; legislation, facilities for the user, including training; and the possibilities for enhancement of on-line information, through maps, statistics, videos, and sound. Underlying all is access and use of government documents to increase political literacy. The editors highly recommend this book to practitioners of government document management, to Reference and Public Service staff, to library educators and to the information literate in all walks of life.

He moves into community accommodation in Lambeth North and resumes the li...

This casebook is an excellent supplement to undergraduate courses in Behavior or Classroom Management. Cases in Behavior Management directly addresses the need of thought-stirring opportunities for students to apply and discuss the behavior management theories and practices on the uncertain and multifaceted terrain of real social problems. It provides realistic, context-rich narratives of behavior problems and social conflicts that developing professionals can ponder, puzzle over, discuss, and even disagree on. Each case consists of two parts: a quick description of the problem incident itself and in-depth coverage of the salient background information concerning the individuals involved, the immediate social context, the school setting surrounding that immediate context, and aspects of the community at large. Exclusive to the market, this book features 32 cases that realistically portray behavior management issues faced by teachers, parents, and other caregivers. It includes a full range of classroom-based cases that have occurred at the preschool through secondary grade levels.
