Building Digitized Collections

Say that the content we are looking for It should not be more than three clicks of the mouse of the login to a web site page.For the design of a virtual library, it is necessary to take into account some factors that make to the success of the project. Our institution has a mission and objectives: is essential to not distance ourselves from them to define the model and the contents of a virtual library / digital library. It is necessary to clearly define the recipients of our virtual library / digital library and stand firm on developing services and products for those recipients: do not try to be the solution for everyone, because we will lose the course. It is also necessary to decide whether us incorporate the production of our institution (books, journals, databases, etc.) in a virtual library / digital library itself and/or join in cooperative initiatives of virtual libraries / national, regional or international digital libraries.Development of collections digital of the publications of our Institucion.si our institution has own production of knowledge (books, articles, research reports, production of indicators, reports, programmes, etc.), our greater added value for society is to put these documents in full text in our virtual library or a third-party or cooperative virtual library (free or paid). The development of digital collections of publications to offer them to users through the remote access (e.g. via Internet) is one activity that has been developing two decades ago in the world, and whose main activities, which Abby Smith well describes strategies for Building Digitized Collections (Smith, 2001), are: deciding what to include in our production in the digital collection and for whom is destined the collection;Keep in line with the mission and objectives of our institution to choose the contents of the digital collection;Choose the most valuable contents to the user community that favors the institution;Help our institution to analyze the new audiences generated by Internet, and see which ones are of interest to our mission as an institution (for example, teachers and students from courses remote, connected to the network (public and private officials, scholars from other regions of the world, etc.); Desarrollar our plan and budget in a realistic way; define a sustainable strategy for the collection that will ensure that you have the necessary financing for its development, updating and maintenance. One of the more expensive items is digitizing printed publications that do not have their digital version;Avoid duplication of efforts and not digitize publications that are already accessible via the web, but provide a link to that external resource;Promote a respectful use of copyright; incorporate metadata that facilitate recovery and classification of publications in digital publications; incorporate interfaces that allow search by keywords and Boolean operators; incorporate mechanisms and types of files that allow users download texts, archive them, print them, etc.;Work with the specialists themed to reflect the thematic indexing as best as possible, changing the theme of our library vocabulary; deal with maintenance and scalability of our platform (hard and software) to run our BV always well grows the collection;Make sure that the server where it is hosted our BV support volume and the simultaneity of consultations on the text of the reading room and databases;Evaluate if we should join regional already existing platforms, such as for example the Regional Virtual Library of social sciences of CLACSO, the Ibero-American BibliotecDigital of UNESCO, SciELO and other regional initiatives;As professionals, keep us up to date with regard to new developments for BV/BD.

The Needles Ancient Japanese therapy, enzyme bath produces heat through the fermentation of cedar, Bran rice, FIR and metabolic enzymes in hot water distilled. Unfortunately, as weight loss occurs only due to the loss of fluids (you sweat a lot), in how much is drunk something becomes to gain weight. If you're obese and do not fear needles, try acupuncture, this oriental technique consists of stick needles into special pressure points on the body (many of them in the ear). If you follow a balanced diet and refer you to therapy, it should work. Apparently, the needles stuck on the lobes control the serotonin, a hormone that regulates appetite and makes them disappear the desire to eat. But if this method does not work there is another which is actually my favorite for the reason that is very simple to follow steps, in fact is a balanced but dehydrated food, you can consume it in the form of shake or smoothie, you can add a small piece of fruit and ice giving it a special flavor. Why this method works? It is actually easy to understand it, we suppose that a person per day consumes 100% of calories, if we replace your normal breakfast (300 to 600 calories) by a Smoothie, we would be lowering your calorie consumption but if instead of dinner we add another milkshake (other 300 to 600 calories) we would be eliminating 60% of excess calories, making a loss of body fat in the person. The supplement should be rich in protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Another tip is to take enough water two to three liters per day. With this type of program is not needed to do exercise as it has been proven that is easier to lower body fat levels correcting eating habits that have...

Cement Production Line Cement is one of the most essential accessories (bonding agent) in the building industry. It can be produced in a simple process and at reasonable cost, the finished product is not harmful to the environment, and it can be recycled. There has been a significant increase in the utilization of cement over the past few years. The demand is expected to increase further in the future as, especially in Asia and Latin America, infrastructure measures and housing will be intensified. There are double-digit growth rates in cement production mainly in China, but also in India, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Several Middle East and African countries are also increasing their cement production. State-of-the-art coarse grinding systems are usually vertical roller grinding mills (see section 1.2.4) or roller presses (see section 1.2.5). Due to their slighter energy consumption, these systems are gradually replacing ball tube mills (consulte la Seccion 1.2.6) which are still used, in combination with an impact mill or as independent units for coarse grinding. In the coarse-grinding process the final grain sizes of approx. 0.1 mm required for the further cement production process are produced. Burning the raw meal/cooling clinkers In the so-called cyclone preheating plants and succeeding rotary kilns the raw meal is continuously heated from ambient temperature to approx. 1500 C and discharged as granulated cement clinker. The burning of raw meal to clinker constitutes a complex process. It consists of precisely defined steps and is constantly monitored. Large rotary kilns today can be approx. 6 m across and 100 m long, reaching throughputs of up to about 10,000 t per unit and day. The energy carriers used for preheating and heating in preheating for burning the material in rotary kilns and plants are coal, oil and natural gas. Which of these fuels are ultimately used...
