eBook lending: Libraries go digital

Paperless books are winding up in public library catalogsSource: Publishers shouldn't be concerned that eBook lending will impact sales of eBooksAs with physical books, there can be a wait in downloading from a library's website (CNN) -- Board a bus or a train today and chances are you'll see several people with eReaders in hand. While most probably bought their electronic books on a popular website, you may find a few who borrowed the paperless books from the library. EBooks accounted for 6.4% of all publishing in 2010, according to the American Association of Publishers, and 114 million electronic books were sold last year.

While the majority of eBooks sold today are bought by individual readers, a growing number of the paperless books are winding up in public library catalogs. EBook lending is growing at a fast pace at the New York Public Library. Why Every MBA Should Read More Literature. The Eurozone debt crisis: Why the IMF’s proposal is flawed. The IMF has recently suggested the recapitalisation of Europe’s banks as the most prudent way out of the continent’s economic crisis.

The Eurozone debt crisis: Why the IMF’s proposal is flawed

This column argues that such thinking is based on a flawed analysis of the problem and is an unhelpful distraction at best. Europe is facing a crisis of government debt. The true problem of the Eurozone is not its banking system. The recent calls by the IMF for a recapitalisation of European banks are, to say the least, disconcerting. A few weeks after the European Banking Authority (EBA) stress tests highlighted the resilience of European banks, it is discouraging that IMF officials (see Lagarde 2011) keep coming up with an argument that should have been settled months ago.

This policy proposal is the result, I believe, of a flawed analysis of the current stage of the financial crisis. It is important to have a correct diagnosis of the reasons why this mountain of debt, private and public, has accumulated. How Great?

Vocabulary Index

If you are interested in taking this module over, please reply to the issue. Vocabulary Index provides an easy way to create a taxonomy browser / directory index. You can choose for which vocabularies to create pages or blocks where the terms within that vocabulary are listed. With just a few clicks you're done.

Listing is possible in different kind of views depending on your needs: Views is the Swiss pocket knife for creating your own 'lists' of taxonomy data (and users, nodes, comments, etc.), but it cannot do what Vocabulary Index does. Intro to Drupal: Build a Simple CMS. Drupal's popularity has lately been rising.

Intro to Drupal: Build a Simple CMS

It's a great platform for setting up content management systems and community driven sites. Here, I'll give a general overview of Drupal and build a simple site for a fake client. We'll begin with outlining the client's needs, installing and configuring a few modules, creating user roles and assigning permissions, and finally we'll add in some content. A place to learn Drupal.

The Drupal overview

If a system is too simple, it can only be used for a single purpose - but if it is too flexible, it may be too difficult for new users to learn. Drupal strives to reconcile these conflicting goals by providing its users with the tools they need to make their own content management solution, while still providing some pre-built components to help them get started. Thus, it can be described both as a content management system (CMS) and a content management framework (CMF) - one system which strives to have the strengths of both, without their deficiencies.

Most CMS's are like a toy boat or truck - specific assumptions have been made about their use, assumptions that would be hard for you to override. Frameworks, on the other hand, provide you with raw materials only - you need to know a programming language and have a clear design vision to put them together. Drupal is like a Lego kit.
