Buttress’s World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations
This edition of over 60 000 entries, including significantly more than 20% new or revised material, not only updates its predecessor but also continues the policy of extending coverage to areas dealt with only sparsely in previous editions. Special attention has been paid to the Far East, Australasia and Latin America in general, and to the People's Republic of China in particular. The cross-referencing between a defunct organization and its successor (indicated by ex and now) introduced into the last edition, has been extended. Otherwise the policies adopted in previous editions have been retained. All kinds of organizations are included - international, national, governmental, individual, ...
World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations
This edition of well over 50,000 entries not only updates its predecessor but considerably increases the coverage of Latin America and Eastern Europe. I have been aided in this work by two colleagues at Glasgow University Library, Dr Lloyd Davies and Barbara MacMillan, and in general revision by Kate Richard. Close on 20% of the text has been altered. The equivalences, introduced into the last edition, linking acronyms in different languages for the same organization, have been extended. New to this edition is the cross-referencing between a defunct organization and its successor. Otherwise the policies adopted in previous editions have been retained: strictly local organizations are omitted...
StarBriefs 2001
This compilation probably looks like one of the craziest things a human being could spend his or her time on. Yet nobody would wonder at someone taking a short walk every day - after twenty five years that person would have covered a surprisingly long distance. This is exactly the story behind this list, which appeared first as a few pages within the directory StarGuides (or whatever name it had at that time) and as a distinct sister publication since 1990. The idea behind this dictionary is to offer astronomers and related space scientists practical assistance in decoding the numerous abbreviations, acronyms, contractions and symbols which they might encounter in all aspects of the vast ran...
Utopies contemporaines en information-documentation
Force est de constater que le XXe siècle et le début du XXIe sont, dans le milieu de la documentation, caractérisés par l’essor des techniques de l’information. Cela a une incidence majeure sur la circulation et la diffusion des savoirs, la posture et les missions des professionnels de l’information documentaire, ainsi que la capacité de réception des usagers et plus largement des citoyens. Utopies contemporaines en information-documentation analyse, à travers les discours d’intellectuels, la manière dont les conceptions mais aussi les gestes documentaires sont nourris d’utopies qui contribuent à inscrire de façon à la fois pragmatique et politique les objets info-documentaires. Travailler sur les utopies, et sur les textes à visée utopique et projective, revient à énoncer une critique de notre temps et de l’époque privilégiée ; critique absolument nécessaire pour saisir les logiques sociales et professionnelles à l’oeuvre, et anticiper l’avenir du secteur de la documentation.
