About Debian WHAT is Debian? The Debian Project is an association of individuals who have made common cause to create a free operating system. This operating system that we have created is called Debian. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. At the core of an operating system is the kernel. The kernel is the most fundamental program on the computer and does all the basic housekeeping and lets you start other programs. Debian systems currently use the Linux kernel or the FreeBSD kernel. However, work is in progress to provide Debian for other kernels, primarily for the Hurd. A large part of the basic tools that fill out the operating system come from the GNU project; hence the names: GNU/Linux, GNU/kFreeBSD and GNU/Hurd. Of course, the thing that people want is application software: programs to help them get what they want to do done, from editing documents to running a business to playing games to writing more software. It's a bit like a tower.
Wedia - Solutions de gestion et de publication de contenus multi-supports (Web, papier, mobile) Why librarians should be concerned with Open Access Rapid price escalations in scholarly journal subscription rates have been adversely affecting access to scholarly information. Often referred to as the 'serials pricing crisis', the costs of academic journals have been sharply climbing for over two decades now. According to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), the average cost of a serial subscription for ARL member libraries increased by 315% from 1989 to 2003. This increase far exceeds the rise in the Consumer Price Index of 68% for those years. From 2003 on, average journal prices have increased more slowly, but still continue to rise by about 9% a year. Partially responsible for these increases is the ongoing consolidation of the journal publishing market. Impact on libraries . Journal price increases have far outpaced increases in library budgets and this has eroded libraries’ buying power significantly. This system is simply not sustainable. Open Access offers a viable solution to the serials pricing crisis. ACRL.
Midgard: Midgard2 - Content Repository Midgard2 objects are defined using MgdSchema XML configuration files. Their classes are automatically registered for usage in applications and are described using MgdSchema file attributes and properties. Naming Conventions Due to language binding limitations, type names should be in lowercase and use underscores as word separators. Temporary files with '.' or '#' prefixes, or with a '#' suffix will be ignored and warning messages will be printed to the log file or directly to the terminal window. Schema Structure Here's a simple example: Loading Schema Files When an application starts up, Midgard2 parses the main schema file MidgardObjects.xml which defines all the built-in types like midgard_person and midgard_attachment. To load additional MgdSchema files, place them into your /usr/share/midgard2/schema directory (this may be different if you chose another prefix during midgard-core compilation). Writing Midgard Schemas For every newly-defined type, mandatory attributes have to be set. or
The Optimal Open Access Policy for Institutions The following optimal wording for an Institutional Policy on Open Access for [institution] is recommended to accommodate publisher embargoes: The [institution name] expects the authors of papers reporting publicly-funded research to maximise the accessibility, usage and applications of their findings. To this end: The [institution name]: (1) requires electronic copies of any research papers that have been accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, and are supported in whole or in part by public funding, to be deposited into the institutional digital repository immediately upon acceptance for publication. (2) requires that the metadata (title, authors, institutional affiliation, name of journal that has accepted the paper) be exposed from the time of deposition of the research paper (3) requires that the full-text be exposed no later than 6 months after publication of the research paper (4) encourages authors to retain ownership of the copyright of published papers where possible
