Library & Information Science Research, a cross-disciplinary and refereed journal, focuses on the research process in library and information science, especially demonstrations of innovative methods and theoretical frameworks or unusual extensions or applications of well-known methods and tools. Library & Information Science Research publishes research articles primarily from a social science perspective.

There is an overwhelming amount of scientific literature documenting everything related to fisheries science and the almost infinite number of fish species. Unfortunately, there is so much it is hard to keep up with it all. For certain, there is way more than a casual observer wants to know about.
Nichole: And on the flip side of that I sometimes feel like the radio show itself helps train our guests to be able to talk to the public. If you do some big research project and you get called by CNN you need to be able to kind of do that one line thing and get across your science but still keep the pubic engaged. I feel like we do a small part in trying to help with that.
Nichole: We did a Valentine's Day show on the science of kissing, and a Halloween show on the epidemiology of a zombie outbreak. So we pretended like it actually happened and how we would model it and how it was all kinds of hopeless, depending on the properties and transmissibility of the zombie outbreak. We also did a Sasquatch species distribution model. But the distribution of Sasquatch just happened to line up with the distribution of the black bear. So that's a better explanation. We've done some fun shows.
Shhh! Seshat is the world's oldest librarian, and you know she can hear you chewing that gum while you do your homework. She's also the world's oldest accountant and the world's oldest architect. If Thoth can teach it, Seshat, the ancient Egyptian goddess of knowledge, can do it. She's a builder and a thinker, and her specialties are math and science. In her second job as divine reporter and historian, Seshat writes down everything that happens on the leaves of a tree in Ra's courtyard, so he can catch up with the news during his morning walks. Sounds like a pretty important gig.
We Didn't Start the Fire by Billy Joel
Making history catchy, one line at a time.
She Blinded Me With Science by Thomas Dolby
I've been blinding people with science since I invented it.
Four Women by Nina Simone
I approve of using music to change history.
We Used to Wait by The Arcade Fire
Why does everybody always sing the blues about the past? Is the present that bad? Silly humans.
It's Time by Imagine Dragons
Never change who you are.
I like early digital music, from bands like Kraftwerk. They were using computers before computers were cool (or small enough to put in your pocket)!
Power metal might be the best thing you mortals ever invented. Blind Guardian is awesome!
Work of Art by Demi Lovato
Your life and your work of art are always yours. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
Double-blind peer review, in which both authors and referees are anonymous, is apparently much revered, if not much practised. The Publishing Research Consortium (PRC) has assessed attitudes towards peer review among 3,000 academics in an international survey across the sciences and humanities. The results, released last month1, strongly affirm the value of peer review. They also highlight that 71% have confidence in double-blind peer review and that 56% prefer it to other forms of review. Support is highest with those who have experienced it (the humanities and social sciences) or where it is perceived to do the most good (among female authors). The least enthusiastic group is editors. So is it time for editors, and those at Nature in particular, to reconsider their position?
The double-blind approach is predicated on a culture in which manuscripts-in-progress are kept secret. This is true for the most part in the life sciences. But some physical sciences, such as high-energy physics, share preprints extensively through arXiv, an online repository. Thus, double-blind peer review is at odds with another 'force for good' in the academic world: the open sharing of information. The PRC survey found that highly competitive fields (such as neuroscience) or those with larger commercial or applied interests (such as materials science and chemical engineering) were the most enthusiastic about double-blinding, whereas fields with more of a tradition for openness (astronomy and mathematics) were decidedly less supportive.
Dr. Natalie Martiniello is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Psychology at Concordia University. The Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) awarded her a Health Systems Impact fellowship to explore accessibility and inclusion for blind scholars in Postsecondary education, with a focus on accessible research and access to information in traditionally under-represented fields within the health and science ecosystem. She also lectures in the Graduate program in Visual Impairment at the University of Montreal, which trains future professionals in the field of blindness and low vision. She previously worked as a braille specialist within the education and rehabilitation system, where she taught braille and accessible technologies to blind individuals across the age spectrum. Natalie is a lifelong braille reader and passionate about equitable access to information, communication and literacy, especially for those who use non-visual methods such as braille and tactile graphics. She is the Immediate Past-President of Braille Literacy Canada (the Canadian Braille Authority) and the Chair of Braille Research for the International Council on English Braille
Reading groups have grown rapidly in popularity and continue to be a significant cultural phenomenon. Reading groups in public libraries, linked to the learning and social inclusion agenda, have expanded to include a wide range of groups within society, including people with visual impairments (VIPs). This under-researched area is the focus of this book. Library-based VIP reading groups are interesting on many levels. Given that these groups predominantly use audio versions of the text (rather than print), this links to debates about the changing nature of reading in a multi-modal age. This book discusses whether contemporary society still defines reading as a visual activity or whether technological developments have led to a broadening of the definition of reading. The author goes on to discuss how policy is translated into practice within the library context and whether the wide range of reading groups linked to libraries suggests that libraries understand and are taking the social inclusion agenda seriously. She also explores how effectively libraries are using reading groups as a tool for delivering on the agenda for learning and how this sits within wider priorities for post-compulsory education and lifelong learning. Finally the book suggests ideas for future development for these groups, outlining ways in which their potential could be maximised for the benefit of both the library and the reading group members. The book will be of great interest to professional librarians as well as students and scholars of librarianship. It will also be of interest to those working on the emerging field of reading groups in literary studies. Those interested in the role of reading in education, as well as disability scholars, will also find the book useful.
Congress created what is now NLS in 1931 out of particular concern for veterans who were blinded during World War I. Our authorizing legislation has been amended several times since then, extending the service beyond adults who are blind to include children and later to people with physical and reading disabilities.
A private association, the Society for the Procurement of Large-print Books and Work Opportunities for the Blind (German: Verein zur Beschaffung von Hochdruckschriften und Arbeitsgelegenheit fr Blinde zu Leipzig), was established in Leipzig in 1894 to provide blind persons with literature and employment.[4] It was set up in a bookseller's house and grew into the first library for blind persons in the German Empire. Soon afterward the society established its own publishing house and printing press. A charitable foundation, the Verein zur Frderung der Deutschen Zentralbcherei fr Blinde, was established in 1916 to support and promote the library. By this time over 5,000 braille volumes were available and it had 1,200 regular users.[5] be457b7860
