“Straight to the Heart of Things”— Reflecting on Library Metaphors for Impact and Assessment

Creator:

Stoddart, Richard A.

Abstract:

This paper explores the use and creative application of library metaphors. Unfortunately, the facts aren’t always able to speak for themselves. Simply stating reference statistics, gate counts, and resource circulation numbers are not persuasive narratives in and of themselves. Voice and context needs to be given to these forms of...

Library Metaphors for Impact and Assessment by Richard A. Stoddart Assessment Librarian Oregon
The stability and calibration of water vapor isotope ratio measurements during long-term deployments

Creator:

Bailey, A., Noone, D., Berkelhammer, M., Steen-Larsen, H. C., and Sato, P.

Abstract:

With the recent advent of commercial laser absorption spectrometers, field studies measuring stable isotope ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in water vapor have proliferated. These pioneering analyses have provided invaluable feedback about best strategies for optimizing instrumental accuracy, yet questions still remain about instrument performance and calibration approaches for multi-year...
