What is librarianship when it is unmoored from cataloging, books, buildings, and committees? In The Atlas of New Librarianship, R. David Lankes offers a guide to this new landscape for practitioners. He describes a new librarianship based not on books and artifacts but on knowledge and learning; and he suggests a new mission for librarians: to improve society through facilitating knowledge creation in their communities. The vision for a new librarianship must go beyond finding library-related uses for information technology and the Internet; it must provide a durable foundation for the field. Lankes recasts librarianship and library practice using the fundamental concept that knowledge is created though conversation. New librarians approach their work as facilitators of conversation; they seek to enrich, capture, store, and disseminate the conversations of their communities. To help librarians navigate this new terrain, Lankes offers a map, a visual representation of the field that can guide explorations of it; more than 140 Agreements, statements about librarianship that range from relevant theories to examples of practice; and Threads, arrangements of Agreements to explain key ideas, covering such topics as conceptual foundations and skills and values. Agreement Supplements at the end of the book offer expanded discussions. Although it touches on theory as well as practice, the Atlas is meant to be a tool: textbook, conversation guide, platform for social networking, and call to action."--M.I.T.

Parents became bootleggers, kids smuggled illegal alcohol, and outlaws became celebrities. It wasn't supposed to be that way, of course. When Congress passed the Eighteenth Amendment, prohibiting the sale and manufacture of alcohol in the United States, supporters believed it would create a better, stronger nation. Instead it began an era of lawlessness, when famous gangsters like Al Capone rose to fame, and many reconsidered their concept of right and wrong. This is the story of those years in American history-- the story of prohibition.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499133http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=495808Description: In the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union, ten-year-old Sasha idolizes his father, a devoted Communist, but when police take his father away and leave Sasha homeless, he is forced to examine his own perceptions, values, and beliefs.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=495808http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480737Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480737http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479855Description: "Combining Jewish, Greek, and Roman teachings with the radical new teachings of Christ and St. Paul, Christianity helped to cultivate the cardinal ideas of dignity, equality, liberty and democracy that ground the modern human rights paradigm. Christianity also helped shape the law of public, private, penal, and procedural rights that anchor modern legal systems in the West and beyond. This collection of essays explores these Christian contributions to human rights through the perspectives of jurisprudence, theology, philosophy and history, and Christian contributions to the special rights claims of women, children, nature and the environment. The authors also address the church's own problems and failings with maintaining human rights ideals. With contributions from leading scholars, including a foreword by Archbishop Desmond Tutu, this book provides an authoritative treatment of how Christianity shaped human rights in the past, and how Christianity and human rights continue to challenge each other in modern times"--http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479855http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=489895Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=489895http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=321035Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=321035http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=478238Description: Designed to help librarians understand what they can do to make library premises and collections for accessible to people with disabilities.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=478238http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=502709Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=502709http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=455246Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=455246http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499135Description: An introduction to the life, career, and influence of the Mexican painter Diego Rivera.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499135http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499151Description: Poses rhyming questions about what grows and what does not.

Drawing from memory is Allen Say's own story of his path to becoming the renowned artist he is today. Shunned by his father, who didn't understand his son's artistic leanings, Allen was embraced by Noro Shinpei, Japan's leading cartoonist and the man he came to love as his "spiritual father." As WWII raged, Allen was further inspired to consider questions of his own heritage and the motivations of those around him. He worked hard in rigorous drawing classes, studied, trained--and ultimately came to understand who he really is. Part memoir, part graphic novel, part narrative history, DRAWING FROM MEMORY presents a complex look at the real-life relationship between a mentor and his student. With watercolor paintings, original cartoons, vintage photographs, and maps, Allen Say has created a book that will inspire the artist in all of us"--http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499136http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=358942Description: Provides the full-text of thousands recently-published books from selected academic and commercial publishers, as well as the full-text of a large number of older works in the public domain.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=358942http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=491879Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=491879http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499138Description: Journey to the Namibian desert with Caitlin O'Connell, an American scientist, and witness one of nature's largest , most complex, and most intelligent mammals living today on this earth.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499138http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499139Description: Emma is Jess's little sister ... and her dilemma. How can one small girl be sweet, funny, imaginative, playful, and affectionate as well as a clinging vine, brat, tattletale, and nuisance-all at the same time? Why is Jess supposed to be a good big sister while Emma doesn't have to be a good little sister? The highlights and low points of this sibling relationship are insightfully evoked in short and simple poems, some funny, some touching, and all resonant with emotional truth. Every child with a younger sibling will recognize Jess's dilemma and the combination of ambivalence and deep loyalty that is built into the sibling relationship. Nancy Carpenter's graceful illustrations perceptively complement Kristine O'Connell George's agile poems.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499139http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=477263Description: This encyclopedia is intended to be an authoritative resource by combining entries from across the social sciences and humanities, and encouraging work from across the methodological traditions to include feminist, poststructuralist, critical, postcolonial, interpretive, postmodernist, historical materialist, racio-ethnic, as well as positivist entries.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=477263http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=477262Description: Provides a comprehensive introduction to the academic field of curriculum studies for the scholar, student, teacher, and administrator by introducing terms, events, documents, biographies, and concepts.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=477262http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=487972Description: Presents the most recent theories, research, terms, concepts, ideas, and histories on educational leadership and school administration as taught in preparation programs and practiced in schools and colleges today.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=487972http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480786Description: "The Encyclopedia of School Psychology is the first comprehensive guide to this field featuring the latest research on school learning, motivation, and educational assessment.

In addition, they are also considering which pieces of their value chain may be better performed abroad. These interrelated decisions concerning outsourcing and offshoring have not only changed entire industries, they have also transformed the lives of people across the world. Hundreds of millions of jobs in emerging nations have been the direct result of outsourcing and offshoring decisions. At the same time, many people in the developed world have lost their jobs because a company has been able to find a cheaper alternative. Featuring contributions from scholars in eleven different countries, this book is the first to examine the theory and practice of outsourcing and offshoring simultaneously.

Originally associated with Argentina's military regime from 1976-1983, the term has since been applied to neighboring dictatorships during the period. Indeed, it has become a byword for state-sponsored repression anywhere in the world. The first edition of this reference illustrated the concept by describing the regimes of Argentina, Chile (1973-1990), and Uruguay (1973-1985), which tortured, murdered, and disappeared thousands of people in the name of anticommunism while thousands more were driven into exile. The second edition expands the scope to include Bolivia (1971-1982), Brazil (1964-1985), and Paraguay (1954-1989).

The need to uphold those values would seem obvious. Yet the university is presently under siege from all corners; workers are being exploited with paltry salaries for full-time work, politics and profit rather than intellectual freedom govern decision-making, and professors are being monitored for the topics they teach. No University Is an Island offers a comprehensive account of the social, political, and cultural forces undermining academic freedom. At once witty and devastating, it confronts these threats with exceptional frankness, then offers a prescription for higher education's renewal. In an insider's account of how the primary organization for faculty members nationwide has fought the culture wars, Cary Nelson, the current President of the American Association of University Professors, unveils struggles over governance and unionization and the increasing corporatization of higher education. Peppered throughout with previously unreported, and sometimes incendiary, higher education anecdotes, Nelson is at his flame-throwing best. The book calls on higher education's advocates of both the Left and the Right to temper conviction with tolerance and focus on higher education's real injustices. Nelson demands we stop denying teachers, student workers, and other employees a living wage and basic rights. He urges unions to take up the larger cause of justice. And he challenges his own and other academic organizations to embrace greater democracy." -- Book jacket.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480126http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499175Description: Presents fifty traditional nursery rhymes in comic book format, with illustrations by well-known cartoonists.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499175http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=499188Description: As a fourteen-year-old who just moved to a new town, with no friends, an abusive father, and a louse for an older brother, Doug Swieteck has all the stats stacked against him until he finds an ally in Lil Spicer--a fiery young lady.
