December also means that January is right around the corner and that is a time of renewal and resolutions. Here are five resolutions that every NDLA member should vow to keep: - Submit a proposal to present at the annual NDLA conference. The greatest asset our organization has is YOU. Although you might think you have nothing to share, or that everyone already knows what you know, I would bet money that each of you does something or knows something that we can all learn from. - Attend an Executive Board meeting. The NDLA Executive Board conducts all of its meetings via Zoom, a web conference platform, and you can join from the comfort of your own home or office. Attending a meeting is a great way to become familiar with the inner workings of our organization. - Serve NDLA in a leadership capacity. We need you! Volunteer to serve on a committee, as a section chair, or run for an elected position. It seems that every year we struggle to find volunteers. It is time for all of us to step up! , - Apply for a professional development grant. Did you know that NDLA offers funding to help our members offset the financial burden of attending professional conferences? This is a great way to leverage your NDLA membership. - Nominate a colleague or community member for an award. NDLA recognizes a variety of professionals at our annual conference. Nominating someone for an award is a great way to say ?Thank you for your service.? Instead of promising to get fit, cut down on the chocolate, or declutter your home, make a resolution that you are guaranteed to keep. Need an accountability buddy? Head over to the NDLA Facebook page and share your resolution. We will help you stay on track. 2019 will be the year you keep a resolution! The Good Stuff 3 December 2018 NDLA M em ber shi p Year : W hat You Need to K n ow an d DO befor e Decem ber 31, 2018 By Laurie McHenry, Membership Chair NDLA is nearing the end of the second year of a new dues structure. I want to highlight a change from a calendar year to a revolving year, depending on when you join and/or how you choose to pay your dues. While there was much forgiveness and leniency while we adjusted to both the new online system and the structure, the flexibility allowed during the transition ends December 31, 2018. If your dues are more than 30 days past due on December 31, 2018, you will automatically be moved to non-member status. What does non-m em ber st at us m ean? Non-member status means that you will not be able to login to pay your dues, update your information, or view the member directory. The system?s current grace period is 365 days. On December 1, 2018, the grace period will be reduced to 30 days. How do you know if you are delinquent ? You can login and find the information yourself. How? - Access the NDLA website: https://ndla.info/ - Click on Member Area in the upper right Login Your login is your email address (unless you changed it to something else). If your email address doesn?t work, contact [email protected] and request that the login be changed to your email or a username of your choice. Once you are logged in, you may choose whatever you want your login to be. Passw ord Your password is whatever you choose. If you have never logged in, click "Forgot Username/Password" and you will receive an email link to reset the password (unless your email address has changed and has not been updated).

Your Assignm ent : Do This BEFORE Decem ber 31, 2018 Please login and make sure your membership is not delinquent. We value each and every one of you. We do not want you to be moved to non-member status when December 31, 2018, arrives. The Good Stuff 5 December 2018 Library Events and Conferences January 2019 - January 11 ?

The conference drew 120 full-conference attendees and 20 half-conference (one day) attendees. 33 individuals attended the Future Ready Libraries pre-conference and 14 attended the ALA Advocacy pre-conference. In an attempt to go completely paperless, we experimented with a new conference app called SCHED. As with anything new, there were a few glitches, but overall many people enjoyed the easy access to a digital schedule. Wednesday Highlights Shannon McClintock Miller, Future Ready Librarian and Project Connect Spokesperson for AASL, led the Future Ready Libraries pre-conference. The 33 attendees learned how school libraries connect to the Future Ready School initiative. The second pre-conference, ALA Advocacy Bootcamp, urged attendees to re-think advocacy and re-define the library community. Our presenters were James LaRue, the director of ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom as well as the Freedom to Read Foundation, and Marci Merola, the Director of ALA?s Office for Library Advocacy. In the evening, the opening reception was held in Minot's beautiful Carnegie library. Attendees enjoyed delicious treats, amazing music, and a preview of Authors Alley. We also kicked off our first annual Ribbon Race; attendees had to pay attention to notices via SCHED to collect as many badge ribbons as they could. The person with the most ribbons at the end of the conference got first choice of some excellent prizes. Afterwards, a few librarians braved the chilly winds for a pub crawl. It was a great way to kick off our conference! A BIG thank you to the Minot local planning committee. Thursday Highlights Keynote speaker Shannon McClintock Miller shared her experiences as a school librarian in her current role as the Future Ready Librarians spokesperson.

    A BICICLETA: UM MOTOR DE MUDANÇA TÍTULO A Bicicleta: um motor de mudança COORDENADOR: Carlos Relvas EDIÇÃO UA Editora Universidade de Aveiro Serviços de Biblioteca, Informação Documental e Museologia ISBN: 978-972-789-595-3 Este livro encontra-se em conformidade com o novo Acordo Ortográfico de 1990, respeitando as suas indicações genéricas e assumindo algumas opções específicas. Para uma maior coerência ortográfica, e nos casos em que esta situação se verifique, converteram-se todos os textos transcritos à nova ortografia, independentemente de a edição original ser ou não anterior à adoção do novo Acordo Ortográfico. Prefácio A bicicleta tem-se vindo a afirmar ao longo dos anos na Universidade de Aveiro (UA) como um importante objeto de investigação com enfoques em vários domínios, da mobilidade ao território, do ambiente à saúde, do design às engenharias. Nesse quadro, foram desenvolvidos vários projetos em colaboração com autarquias locais, empresas e organizações da sociedade civil, o que levou a Reitoria da UA a criar, em 2014, a Plataforma Tecnológica da Bicicleta e Mobilidade Suave (PTBMS) O lançamento da PTBMS pretendeu oferecer uma nova interface de colaboração dos investigadores com o exterior visando apoiar a criação de condições favoráveis ao uso e à produção de investigação & desenvolvimento sobre a bicicleta e modos suaves como forma de propiciar uma melhoria do ambiente, da economia, da qualificação do território e da vida dos cidadãos e comunidades. Um dos projetos âncora dessa atividade é o UAUBIKE, inserido no programa U-Bike Portugal, que pretende incentivar a mobilidade suave na comunidade académica de Aveiro, com enfoque na bicicleta.

    The BikeRepair Wiki Book The main book containing all information about Bike Repair About BikeRepair Wiki Code of Conduct Bike Manufacturers Component Manufacturers Definitions Definition - Bicycle Type Definition - Tyre and Rim Sizing Troubleshooting List of Common Bike Problems About BikeRepair Wiki About BikeRepair Wiki The bike repair wiki is a wiki created to centralise knowledge about repairing bikes so that it is available to everyone, both in developing and developed countries. Why was it created? It was created to empower bicycle owners to repair their own bicycles and also to encourage people to repair what they have rather than simply discard of it when it does not work. Also, so much of this information is learned and then discarded. Who can edit? Anyone can edit. Any goals? To create a repair manual which is free, public, editable, and multi-lingual which anyone can use to repair and maintain their bike. To create a “new bike user" manual, which provides new bike owners with useful information on how to keep their bike in good shape. To cut through bullshit and provide clear definitions and clear explanations that anyone can use to repair and maintain their bike. To catalog bike components and log any information about recalls and product defects. To provide people an easy reference so that, if they want to replace parts on their bikes, they can come here and find out which parts will fit their bicycles Code of Conduct This community is intended to be solely for providing a reference for bike enthusiasts, repair persons, and other people interested in the mechanics of Bicycles.
