This presentation was given at the University of Oregon Libraries on January 21, 2010. "Rights Well" was developed at the Oregon State University Libraries as part of the Scholarly Communication Program. The presentation addresses the importance of authors' rights (why authors should care) and methods for developing a presentation specific...
Between 1906-41, John Bennes was one of Portland’s most prolific architects.

The western spotted cucumber beetle (Diabrotica undecimpunctata
undecimpunctata) and the western striped cucumber beetle (Acalymma trivittatum) are
pests of many crops, including vegetable, fruit, and nursery crops. Pesticides are
commonly used to control this pest. Trap and kill technologies are under development as
use in an alternative control for cucumber...
This presentation is used by author in technical training sessions for dataset contributors to the Oregon Spatial Data Library. This set of slides was initially prepared for meeting with data librarians at University of Oregon. Author is Programmer/GIS Analyst for the Oregon Explorer.
This presentation about the Oregon Spatial Data Library (OSDL) (http://spatialdata.oregonexplorer.info/) was delivered to the Western Association of Map Libraries in March 2010. The OSDL provides convenient ways to find, access, and share geospatial data and was developed in partnership with the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS). The Oregon Spatial...
Technological advances in the marine renewable energy industry and increased clarity about the leasing and licensing process are fostering development proposals in both state and federal waters.

Presented at ALA 2010, this session discussed MarcEdit and common techniques used to manipulate library metadata. This particular talk focused on functionality that would be specifically useful for individuals looking to migrate data from one ILS system to another.
Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type III secretion system (TTSS) to establish a relationship with a host. Pathogens can use the secretion system as a way to deliver proteins known as type III effectors (TTEs) into a host cell and block host defense. The variation and redundancy of the type...
Epidermal RNA samples from FVB/N mice treated with PAH standards and
environmental PAH mixtures were harvested and purified using Trizol extraction and
RNeasy mini prep kit purification. Epidermal RNA integrity was low (RIN mean 3.5),
indicating significant RNA degradation and the need to modify handling, collection, and
processing of skin...
