Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the format of Fitzroy Dearborn's highly successful International Dictionary of Historic Places and International Dictionary of University Histories, the International Dictionary of Library Histories provides basic information for each institution - location and holdings - followed by an extensive (1,000-5,000 word) essay on its history as well as a Further Reading list. In addition, the dictionary includes introductory articles on the history of various types of libraries and a library history in various regions of the world. The dictionary profiles more than 200 institutions from around the world, including the world's most important research libraries and other libraries with globally or regionally notable collections, innovative traditions, and significant and interesting histories. The essays take advantage of the growing scholarship of library history to provide insightful overviews of each institution, including not only the traditional values of these libraries but their innovations as well, such as developments in automated systems and electronic delivery. The profiles will emphasize the unique materials of research in these institutions - archives, manuscripts, personal and institutional papers. The introductory articles on types of libraries include topics ranging from theological libraries to prison libraries, from the ancient to the digital. An international team of more than 200 leading scholars in the field have contributed essays to the project.

This book was released on 2018-12-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its discovery by Christopher Columbus in May 1503, the Cayman Islands has developed a reputation for being one of the most unique places in the world to visit and do business. As a popular tourist destination, the Islands feature many attractions but it has been said that the most enjoyable activity is interacting with the local population.Although English is the native language in this British Overseas Dependent Territory, the local dialect contains thousands of words that are often blended together and hidden beneath very strong accents. This adds flair to the Islands' cultural appeal.The Cayman Islands Dictionary(c) was borne of an effort to accentuate some of those unique words so that everyone can learn more about them and enjoy the true beauty of Cayman: the people.Inasmuch as any visitor will enjoy learning more about the Caymanian culture, so will the local residents, who will see their words immortalized for the first time in print. Some will enjoy the unique spellings and pronunciations, while others will learn the true meanings of everyday words such as bobo, tee-dee, ereckleh, flitter, gig, teets, pop head, buck toe, foppish, urr, and hickly-pickly.As the flagship product of the Caymanology Collection(c), this dictionary is the benchmark for future Cayman-centric products that will foster pride and patriotism and preserve its linguistic heritage for generations to come.

Book excerpt: Published in 2001: Abbreviations, nicknames, jargon, and other short forms save time, space, and effort - provided they are understood. Thousands of new and potentially confusing terms become part of the international vocabulary each year, while our communications are relayed to one another with increasing speed. PDAs link to PCs. The Net has grown into data central, shopping mall, and grocery store all rolled into one. E-mail is faster than snail mail, cell phones are faster yet - and it is all done 24/7. Longtime and widespread use of certain abbreviations, such as R.S.V.P., has made them better understood standing alone than spelled out. Certainly we are more comfortable saying DNA than deoxyribonucleic acid - but how many people today really remember what the initials stand for? The Abbreviations Dictionary, Tenth Edition gives you this and other information from Airlines of the World to the Zodiacal Signs.
