Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Book Stack and Shelving for Libraries Requisites Of A Library Book Stack. Every active library containing any considerable number of volumes requires an arrangement of shelving embodying all of the following features, namely: 1. Accommodation for books of every variety, size and kind of binding. 2. Shelves easily and quickly adjustable and interchangeable by any library attendant and readily and compactly stowed away close at hand when temporarily displaced. 3. Permitting every desirable classification, arrangement and rearrangement of the books at will. 4. Affording free and instant access to any volume at any time. 5. Having not only certain main corridors, stairs and lifts for direct access to the books and for free communication both laterally and vertically throughout the stack in its several tiers, but readily yielding additional passages anywhere. 6. Proper supports for books on partially filled shelves. 7. Maximum capacity and capability of indefinite extension. 8. All surfaces permanently smooth and rounded to prevent injury to books or papers and protected from corrosion. 9. Fireproof throughout. 10. Thoroughly and safely illuminated by day and by night. 11. Naturally clean and readily kept free from accumulated dust. 12. Furnishing no lodgment or comfort to book pests. 13. Immunity from injury from leaky roof or ceiling. 14. Even temperature and ventilation not only throughout the stack in general but through the individual shelves and their supports, so that practically the only obstruction to free circulation of air and light is offered by the books themselves. 15. Free, easy and direct communication at will in any direction throughout the stack for the convenience of attendants. 16. Convenience for all sorts of appropriate work everywhere in the stack, including direct access to books by readers when desirable as in the open shelf room, and the placing at convenient points of desks, cabinets, etc. 17. The fewest separate parts or pieces and the simplest construction consistent with strength and rigidity. 18. Location in close communication with reading, cataloguing and delivery rooms.

Book Synopsis Trust Me, I'm Lying by : Ryan Holiday
Download or read book Trust Me, I'm Lying written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cult classic that predicted the rise of fake news—revised and updated for the post-Trump, post-Gawker age. Hailed as "astonishing and disturbing" by the Financial Times and "essential reading" by TechCrunch at its original publication, former American Apparel marketing director Ryan Holiday’s first book sounded a prescient alarm about the dangers of fake news. It's all the more relevant today. Trust Me, I’m Lying was the first book to blow the lid off the speed and force at which rumors travel online—and get "traded up" the media ecosystem until they become real headlines and generate real responses in the real world. The culprit? Marketers and professional media manipulators, encouraged by the toxic economics of the news business. Whenever you see a malicious online rumor costs a company millions, politically motivated fake news driving elections, a product or celebrity zooming from total obscurity to viral sensation, or anonymously sourced articles becoming national conversation, someone is behind it. Often someone like Ryan Holiday. As he explains, “I wrote this book to explain how media manipulators work, how to spot their fingerprints, how to fight them, and how (if you must) to emulate their tactics. Why am I giving away these secrets? Because I’m tired of a world where trolls hijack debates, marketers help write the news, opinion masquerades as fact, algorithms drive everything to extremes, and no one is accountable for any of it. I’m pulling back the curtain because it’s time the public understands how things really work. What you choose to do with this information is up to you.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shocking story of a deadly trend in Victorian wallpaper design, illustrated by beautiful and previously unseen arsenic-riddled designs from the British National Archives In Germany, in 1814, Wilhelm Sattler created an extremely toxic arsenic and verdigris compound pigment, Schweinfurt green–known also as Paris, Vienna, or emerald green–which became an instant favorite amongst designers and manufacturers the world over, thanks to its versatility in creating enduring yellows, vivid greens, and brilliant blues. Most insidiously, the arsenic-laced pigment made its way into intricately patterned, brightly colored wallpapers and from there, as they became increasingly in vogue, into the Victorian home. As its use became widespread, commercial arsenic mines increased production to meet the near-insatiable demand. Not least of which was the UK’s largest mining plant, DGC whose owner was William Morris, originator of the British Arts and Crafts movement and arguably the finest wallpaper designer of his generation. Bitten by Witch Fever (Morris’s own phrase to dismiss arsenic- and- wall-paper-related public health concerns in 1885) tells this fatal story of Victorian home décor, building upon new research conducted especially for this book by the British National Archive, on their own samples. Spliced between the sections of text are stunning facsimiles of the wallpapers themselves.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Index Guide to the Shelf Classification of the Harvard College Library: I. Plans of the Bookstack; II. Index of Shelf-Marks; III. Index of Subjects A few notes on the classification systems in use in the Harvard Library, and on their history, are necessary, in order to explain the character of the shelf-marks indexed in this Guide. A. Down to 1877, the books of the Library were shelved in alcoves, each alcove devoted to a general subject, but no attempt at minute classification was made. The shelf-mark (e.g. Indicated the number of the alcove and the number of the shelf. The alcove numbers ran from 1 to 51, and many half-numbers were interpolated for alcoves which had been subdivided as the Library grew. (see pp. 15 Books which have not yet been reclassified still bear these numbers, and in calling for them, it is necessary to give the title of the book wanted, since the mark indicates only the shelf and not the individual book.
