DOWNLOAD EBOOKARIST, published annually since 1966, is a landmark publication within the information science community. It surveys the landscape of information science and technology, providing an analytical, authoritative, and accessible overview of recent trends and significant developments. The range of topics varies considerably, reflecting the dynamism of the discipline and the diversity of theoretical and applied perspectives. While ARIST continues to cover key topics associated with "classical" information science (e.g., bibliometrics, information retrieval), editor Blaise Cronin is selectively expanding its footprint in an effort to connect information science more tightly with cognate academic and professional communities.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPerformance review has become a major topic in social work. As an all-embracing term, it encompasses broad concepts such as 'quality' and 'accountability' and the specific techniques for measuring and managing performance. This volume is divided into four parts to survey the subject in different areas and to examine its implications from the perspectives of the voluntary sector, management, professional practice, the client, and those implementing performance review. The importance of supervision and the need for proper consultation with carers when making policy decisions are also discussed, as well as such areas as quality assurance schemes and the proper implementation of complaints procedures. Also included is an analysis of performance review and quality in General Practice. The final Part provides a general overview of performance and quality review and examines how effective the Citizen's Charter and other quality assurance schemes are and what they mean when put into practice.
