Dailey, Andrew T. | Magnesium efficacy in a rat spinal cord injury model | Object. Magnesium has been shown to have neuroprotective properties in short-term spinal cord injury (SCI) studies. The authors evaluated the efficacy of magnesium, methylprednisolone, and magnesium plus methylprednisolone in a rat SCI model. Methods. A moderate-to-severe SCI was produced at T9-10 ... | Methylprednisolone; Spinal cord injury; Rat model | 2009 |

Yu, Zhou | Misleading comparisons of homeownership rates between groups and over time: the effects of variable household formation | Despite ominous signs of housing market stress, the homeownership rate reached an all time high in 2006. We seek to understand whether the conventional definition of homeownership, which is based on the share of households and ignores the effects of variable household formation, has confounded the a... | 2009 | |

Mower, Allyson; Chaufty, Lisa Marie | Do something no one has imagined: the 2008 SPARC Digital Repositories meeting | John Wilbanks (director of Science Commons) opened the SPARC Digital Repositories meeting1 with a message that greatly resonated with those attending: do something no has imagined, and don't wait. Indeed, many of the 330 repository managers, librarians, publishers, vendors, and technology specialis... | Institutional; Librarian; Scholarly | 2009 |

Morrow, Anne; Mower, Allyson | University scholarly knowledge inventory system: a workflow system for institutional repositories | The University Scholarly Knowledge Inventory System (U-SKIS) provides workspace for institutional repository staff. U-SKIS tracks files, communications, and publishers' archiving policies to determine what may be added to a repository. A team at the University of Utah developed the system as part o... | Digital repositories; workflow management; copyright permissions | 2009 |

Anderson, Richard Bryan | IMHBCO (in my humble but correct opinon): What's your problem? (and what's mine?) | Academic libraries are in a tough situation, there's no question about it. We're beset on two sides, and it's almost as if the two sides had coordinated their attacks. From one side, attacking us with a gentle smile and a two-edged sword, is Google, which wasn't satisfied with being the single easi... | 2009 | |

Arlitsch, Kenning | Future leaders' views on organizational culture | Research libraries will continue to be affected by rapid and transformative changes in information technology and the networked environment for the foreseeable future. The pace and direction of these changes will profoundly challenge libraries and their staffs to respond effectively. This paper pres... | Organizational culture | 2009 |

Mallat, Chibli | Introduction a la pensee de Robert Fossaert | Cette introduction est surtout un appel, pour paraphraser Althusser sur Marx (<< II faut lire Le Capital, et se mettre au travail) a un bon usage de Fossaert : II faut lire La Societe, et se mettre au travail . Le lecteur trouvera une lucarne de l'universalisme de Fossaert dans la section du b... | 2009 | |

Ogburn, Joyce L. | Moderately risky business challenging librarians to assume more risk in an era of opportunity | One may not readily associate risk with librarianship; however, librarians deal with risk every day and in all parts of the profession. Acquisition functions, for example, include the risks associated with managing budgets and processes, producing appropriate audit trails, predicting and acting on p... | 2009 | |

Hillman, Nicholas W | What matters in student loan default: a review of the research literature | Federal higher education policy has shifted over the past few decades from grants to loans as the primary means for providing access to postsecondary education for low and moderate-income families. With this shift, policy makers have begun tracking student loan default rates as a key indicator of th... | 2009 | |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Are there basic physical constraints on future anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide? | Global Circulation Models (GCMs) provide projections for future climate warming using a wide variety of highly sophisticated anthropogenic CO2 emissions scenarios as input, each based on the evolution of four emissions "drivers": population p, standard of living g, energy productivity (or efficiency... | Global circulation models; Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions | 2009 |

Sikorski, Christopher; Pardyjak, Eric R. | Source characterization of atmospheric releases using quasi-random sampling and regularized gradient optimization | In the present work, an inversion technique to solve the atmospheric source characterization problem is described. The inverse problem comprises characterizing the source (x, y and z coordinates and the source strength) and the meteorological conditions (wind speed and wind direction) at the sourc... | Source characterization; Gaussian plume model; Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC); Regularization; Newton?s method; Line-search; Tikhonov stabilizing functional; Adaptive regularization | 2009 |

Wei, Y. H. Dennis | Restructuring the Sunan model, globalizing regional development: trajectories of development in Kunshan, China | This paper attempts to advance the research on globalization and regional development in China through a study of Kunshan City. We investigate the restructuring process, the structure of FDI, and the nature of global-local networks to understand trajectories and models of regional development in the... | Sunan Model; Regional development; Transnational corporations; Kushan City | 2009 |

Tasdizen, Tolga; Jones, Bryan W.; Whitaker, Ross T. | Computational framework for ultrastructural mapping of neural circuitry | Circuitry mapping of metazoan neural systems is difficult because canonical neural regions (regions containing one or more copies of all components) are large, regional borders are uncertain, neuronal diversity is high, and potential network topologies so numerous that only anatomical ground truth c... | 2009 |
