Borrow / Lend Record Keeper by Flo Dunn Balliet Pdf

For my ninth birthday, I received a copy of Little Women from my best friend, Margie. Soon after I finished reading the book, another friend, Patsy, asked if she could borrow it. Of course, I loaned it to her. I had long since forgotten about the episode when Patsy returned it forty-three years later. After her mother passed away, she found the musty book with Margie's birthday message to me stored in her mother's attic. The whereabouts of another book, Dr. Chase's Recipes, a tattered but treasured read, remained a mystery for years. My husband felt certain it was somewhere in our house; however, repeated searches yielded no success. After two decades, a friend returned it. She said her daughter had discovered it amongst her belongings and remembered she had borrowed it all those years before. These two incidents, and many others, made me wonder how many misplaced or 'lost' items were actually loaned to friends and never returned. Within the past three months, I've noted ten items I have loaned; to date, six have been returned. For those of us who tend to share, it's difficult to heed Shakespeare's advice: "Neither a borrower nor a lender be." If you are, having a record serves as a reminder. It is also pleasurable to reminisce about those items that have touched so many lives. Enjoy. Flo Dunn Balliet

Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery and Customer Satisfaction by Pat L Weaver-Meyers,Wilbur A Stolt,Yem S Fong Pdf

This book contains the results of the first and only multi-institution study of interlibrary loan and document delivery customer satisfaction among academic library patrons. By examining customer perceptions and ILL/DD activities, Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery and Customer Satisfaction: Strategies for Redesigning Services allows library administrators and managers to better understand service needs and shows them where to best allocate resources. The volume includes current reports on workload and staffing in ILL, analysis of current ILL statistical software packages, reports of on-site software development, and suggestions for the future of ILL/DD services. As ILL and DD are the fastest growing services in academic libraries, having a tool that provides so much comparative data on service quality, efficiency, and effectiveness is crucial for librarians in search of solutions to an array of ILL/DD problems. Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery and Customer Satisfaction is a valuable resource for academic librarians, public and special librarians struggling with ILL/DD issues, DD providers (commercial or otherwise), and students in the field of library and information studies. Readers become immersed in the issues as this book: describes the development of local software to reduce the tedious tasks involved in request fulfillment, freeing office personnel to tackle more difficult requests analyzes how important delivery speed is to academic ILL/DD requestors and suggests when investing additional resources in improving delivery speed may be a waste of money provides comparative data on how many requests can be processed by the typical ILL office staff member debunks some long-held assumptions about delivery speed sets guidelines for efficiency and effectiveness proposes two strategies for redesigning ILL services to incorporate new developments in technology and innovative approaches toward long-standing, traditional services Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery and Customer Satisfaction is useful not only to administrators interested in redesigning ILL and DD, but also to other libraries interested in comparing the speed and effectiveness of their service with some positively evaluated services provided by high-volume libraries. The software review helps providers implement the best choice of software for their offices and provides in-depth discussions about the strategies needed to further develop one’s own software to reduce workload. At a time when the tenets of Total Quality Management and customer satisfaction are the focus of many managers, interlibrary loan and document delivery are transforming from peripheral services to primary services in the academic library. Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery and Customer Satisfaction reflects the convergence of these trends and provides a great snapshot of services provided by a representative group of academic libraries.

Digital Finance by Baxter Hines Pdf

Praise for Digital Finance "Digital Finance was helpful in articulating questions the reader potentially didn't know they needed to ask. Hines explains complex terms in a way that is digestible for anyone with a basic business background. The conceptual explanations were also concise and intentional, covering just what I wanted to know to have a solid understanding of a tokenized ecosystem and why there may be advantages found in decentralized finance vs. traditional lending." —Kathryn Carlisle, Senior Managing Director, Blockchain Center for Excellence, University of Arkansas "Baxter does a terrific job explaining the revolutionary technologies that are affecting the financial industry and shows just how transformational those will be in the coming wave of digital finance. This book is a must for those who want a better understanding of how blockchain is going to improve the financial industry." —Jake Ryan, author, Crypto Asset Investing in the Age of Autonomy; CIO, Tradecraft Capital "Digital Finance provides a comprehensive review of the security token marketplace and provides a powerful vision of what to expect in the coming years as blockchain transforms finance. The chapter on DeFi points to a massive emerging market as the transaction efficiency of security tokens meets the scale and transparency of DeFi self-processing assets—the true antidote to prevent a repeat of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. This book is perfect for the blockchain novice or expert with straightforward examples to support a thorough analysis of the rapidly evolving digital finance market." —Dan Doney, Chief Executive Officer, Securrency "Educate yourselves on the future of finance! Digital tokenization of securities is bringing in new investors and issuers, democratizing access to capital. Baxter's book is a must-read for anyone who wants to get ahead of the curve." —Spencer Dinwiddie, NBA All-Star; Founder, DREAM Fan Shares "Don't let complicated words like blockchain and tokens prevent you from learning about the future of finance. Capital markets are being transformed right before our eyes, and Baxter details exactly how that is happening on a molecular level." —Kyle Sonlin, host, The Security Token Show

Loan Sharks by Charles R. Geisst Pdf

Predatory lending: A problem rooted in the past that continues today. Looking for an investment return that could exceed 500 percent annually; maybe even twice that much? Private, unregulated lending to high-risk borrowers is the answer, or at least it was in the United States for much of the period from the Civil War to the onset of the early decades of the twentieth century. Newspapers called the practice “loan sharking” because lenders employed the same ruthlessness as the great predators in the ocean. Slowly state and federal governments adopted laws and regulations curtailing the practice, but organized crime continued to operate much of the business. In the end, lending to high-margin investors contributed directly to the Wall Street crash of 1929. Loan Sharks is the first history of predatory lending in the United States. It traces the origins of modern consumer lending to such older practices as salary buying and hidden interest charges. Yet, as Geisst shows, no-holds barred loan sharking is not a thing of the past. Many current lending practices employed today by credit card companies, payday lenders, and providers of consumer loans would have been easily recognizable at the end of the nineteenth century. Geisst demonstrates the still prevalent custom of lenders charging high interest rates, especially to risky borrowers, despite attempts to control the practice by individual states. Usury and loan sharking have not disappeared a century and a half after the predatory practices first raised public concern.

Interlibrary Loan in Academic and Research Libraries by Pat Weaver-Meyers,Shelly Clement,Carolyn Mahin Pdf

A dramatic increase in interlibrary loan (ILL) in academic and research libraries in the last five years, combined with a changing office environment, is forcing reassessment of the relationship between the volume and cost of loans to service quality. In the spring of 1988, a survey was sent to 116 member libraries of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) to gather data about workload, professional and non-professional staffing levels, use of bibliographic utilities, fillrates, and perceptions about staffing adequacy. This report uses the 76 responses received to present an overview of ILL staffing patterns, test assumptions about workloads and fillrates, and suggest some guidelines for libraries to follow in the analysis of their own efficiency and effectiveness. In conclusion, it is suggested that the importance of professionals in ILL may be underestimated, and that increasing ILL activity may be causing a reduction in the quality of service in borrowing operations. Six tables highlight survey responses. Appended are a copy of the survey and cover letter; a self-analysis workform showing median productivity levels for libraries found to be effective and efficient in ILL operations; and linear and quadratic correlations and a chart for monthly analysis of unfills.
