Authors are often faced with the decision of whether to maximize traditional impact metrics or minimize costs when choosing where publish results their research. Many subscription-based journals now offer option paying an article processing charge (APC) make work open. Though such “hybrid” research more accessible readers, APCs come high price tags and can exclude authors who lack capacity pay accessible. Here, we tested if open access in a journal benefited by conferring citations relative...
We examined habitat characteristics associated with Cerulean Warblers (Dendroica cerulea) in breeding areas on the Cumberland Plateau eastern Kentucky. Warbler distribution was 2004 within a large forest stand and no differences were found between occupied unoccupied areas. preferred song perches random points 2005, identified three potentially important predictors of habitat: diameter trees, east-facing aspect, high shrub cover. selection appears to be similar other well-studied portions...
The train-the-trainer model has great potential for expanding information literacy programs without placing undue burden on already overextended librarians; it is surprisingly underused in academic libraries. At the University of Kentucky, we employed this to create a new program an introductory biology lab. We trained teaching assistants (TAs), each whom was responsible two lab sections, teach scientific database searching and Endnote Online undergraduates. Over first semesters, taught or...

Understanding how to reduce greenhouse emissions and mitigate their impacts is at the forefront of research agendas across globe. Trees other plants play an essential role in absorption storage carbon dioxide, most abundant gases. As a result, many researchers governing bodies look forestry practices for possible climate change solutions. This article reviews literature on mitigation through afforestation forest management, as well shares resources librarians may find helpful assisting...
Abstract Authors are often faced with the decision of whether to maximize impact or minimize costs when publishing results their research. For example, potentially improve via increased accessibility, many subscription-based journals now offer option paying a fee publish open access (i.e., hybrid journals), but this solution excludes authors who lack capacity pay make research accessible. Here, we tested if in subscriptionbased journal benefited by conferring more citations relative closed...
Climate change is believed to be one of the greatest challenges twenty-first century. No section globe will remain untouched by its effects. As a result, researchers around world are searching for ways mitigate impacts climate change. An idea that has become popular fixture management plans planting trees in urban areas. Tree initiatives (TPIs) thought beneficial two reasons: (1) store and absorb carbon dioxide, (2) may prevent dioxide emissions providing shade hot settings. This article...
Purpose – Keeping up with the abundance of new materials on climate change can be a challenge for selectors library materials. There is need an updated list recommended titles in literature. Design/methodology/approach An exhaustive literature review was performed books published within past four years. Findings The following annotated bibliography 22 focused that were timeframe. Originality/value This will helpful to librarians seeking develop or update collections.
