The Library continued to utilize innovative measures to create public spaces and to upgrade and remodel facilities while at the same time maximizing the use of storage areas. With strong commitment from staff members many targets for the 2010/2011 academic year were achieved. Users of the Library benefitted from ongoing renovations to the facilities and the reconfiguration of spaces in the Science and Medical Branch Libraries, and the construction of a new Law Library in the Faculty of Law building. The continuing upgrades resulted in increased seating capacity, provision of spaces for group and individual study, improvement in computer facilities, and the provision of specialized spaces for postgraduate students. As a result of these upgrades the Library now provides 271 computers for student access, 440 electrical outlets, and wireless connectivity for personal laptop computers, while seating has increased by 20% since July 2010. Central to the impact of these developments is a cadre of trained staff with effective customer service skills, so staff development and training were key focus areas to improve administrative efficiency and service throughout the Library system. The Library continued to build its collection of electronic material by providing access to approximately 46, 2 165 electronic journals and 3,882 electronic books. Usage of the databases increased significantly, an indication of the direction that users are moving in. Correspondingly, loans of print material have been decreasing. In June 2011, the Library established a Marketing Team whose mandate is to communicate to the academic community the services and resources offered by the Library. Digitization of material from the Special Collections continued. Some 300 rare maps were digitized during the year under review. Systems librarians across the University campuses worked to complete UWILinC, a common interface for accessing information. With the availability of UWILinC the campus community will have access to a “state of the art” search and discovery interface which allows users to search simultaneously the print, electronic, and digital collections from all four campuses. WORK OF THE DEPARTMENT New Students Orientation Close to 1000 students attended orientation sessions comprising a 30-minute PowerPoint presentation on the library and its resources followed by a tour of the Main Library. The tours were conducted by 3 well-trained peer tour guides. At the end of the sessions students were provided with book marks detailing the library services and opening hours. In September 2010, the Library, in collaboration with MITS, sent individual emails to incoming students to attend OPAC and database training sessions realizing excellent response. In addition, in an effort to put new students at ease, staff members in public service areas of all libraries wore ASK ME pins inviting students to approach staff members with questions and problems. Loan Statistics The overall loan statistics continue to reflect a decline in all areas with only an increase in Reading Room loans during the extended hours. This is no doubt attributable to the use of alternative resources such as databases, e-books, on-line journals and the Internet. As demonstrated from one of the most popular database, EbscoHost usage has increased by 37%. SCIENCEDIRECT to which UWI libraries have a joint subscription reflected increased usage across the campuses from 42,859 to 132,715 hits.

Installation of the system was given a very narrow window and had to be done by December 31, 2010. Working in collaboration with Campus Projects Office, TELiCon, 3M Jamaica and UWIDEF, the Library was able to launch the system on January 18, 2011. Tattle strips were applied to all books in the Main Library, except rare books, by the end of March 2011. This has had a tremendous impact on the work of the Loan and Reference Section not only in terms of staff efficiencies but also in customer satisfaction as now items not legitimately borrowed could be easily detected. Consequently the library attendant who checked books is now assigned other duties particularly in assisting with the speedy delivery of services in areas such as fetching RBC books and assisting clients in locating material on the open shelves. MONA INFORMATION LITERACY UNIT The academic year was another very productive one for the Mona Information Literacy Unit (MILU). The Unit endeavoured to ensure that all students were given training in the

  • Department of Geography and Geology
    DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY ProfessorDavidBarker,BSc Wales, PhD Bristol, DipUrb&RegStudies Birmingham –HeadofDepartment WORKOFTHEDEPARTMENT The Department of Geography and Geology continued to mount a full programme of undergraduate teaching and postgraduate supervision in spite of the challenges imposed by budget and physical resources (space and equipment) and uncertainties created by academic staff resignations, vacancies that remained unfilled, and imminent staff retirements in Geology. Professor Trevor Jackson retired at the end of the academic year. Dr David Dodman resigned and departed Jamaica at the beginning of the second semester, and Dr Susan Mains was on maternity leave during that semester. Mr Kevon Rhiney was appointed as Temporary Assistant Lecturer in Geography from January to the end of the academic year to help us throughthisdifficultperiod. Student numbers in Geology continued to increase dramatically. Student enrolment in first year was 40 per cent higher than in 2006/07, while enrolment in second year was 30 per cent larger. These increased numbers created serious difficulties for staff in practical classes, and an acute shortage of microscopes needed to be urgently addressed. First year and final year numbers in Geography were comparable to those of the previous year, but second year numbers were slightly down as the impact of the abnormally small entry from the Faculty of Humanities andEducationin2006/07workeditswaythroughthesystem. The Department participated in the University’s 60th anniversary celebrations by organizing and hosting a highly successful international conference between July 7 and 11 on the theme “Foundations and Directions: Celebrating Geography at the University of the West 268 Indies.” The organizing committee was chaired by Dr David Miller, and 39 papers were presented at the meeting, 24 of which were presented by current or past members of the Department, including postgraduate students.

    STUDIES IN THE COMUNERO REVOLUTION l52()"'15zl HISTORY HONORS BY JIM AMELANG April 18, 1974 No teniamos Rey sino un bobo, e que el diablo av{a traydo a la Emperatriz a Castilla, ~ue era una bivora como su abuela la qual aV2a traydo esta mala ventura de Inquisicidn a Castilla e que ella la sustentava. Que plu­ guiese a Dios que viniese de Francia guerras o que duraran las Comunidades para que des­ truiran la Inquisicitn que los tenia echado a perder a todos ••• PEDRO CAZALLA , l A ~JECESSARY INrRODUCTION My attention was drawn to the problem of the revolution of the Comunidades by a chance rereading of the Bible of Hispanic history, Sr. Jaime Vicens Vives' Approaches to the History of Spain (cf. Bibliography). Sr. Vicens notes in his discussion of sixteenth-century r,astil1e that onB of the Itnoble elements" that was IIpruned!l by the rising orthodoxy Vias "the bourgeois ideal in the War of the Comunidades" (p. 97). My suspicions were immediately aroused by this remark, as I have always deferred to J.H. Elliott's characterization of the Comuneros as traditionalist, quasi-feudal reactionaries. A hasty perusal of Elliott (cf. Bibliography) failed to resolve the contradiction: an~ having smelled a rat, I began to do pre1iminarJ research on the Comuneros. I soon found that serious scholarly investigation of the subject had been carried out by only a handful of historians. This is not to say that Spanish historians and other Hispanists had overlooked the Comunidades-- far from the contrary. However, it was quite apparent that the revolt/revolution of the Comuneros was one of those lamen- table historical events which are often commented upon but very rarely under- stood.

  • 2020–21 Commencement Program
    Commencement UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO BOULDER MAY 6, 2021 One Hundred Forty-Fifth Year of the University NORLIN CHARGE TO THE GRADUATES The first commencement at the University of Colorado was held for six graduates on June 8, 1882, in the chapel of Old Main. It was not until 40 years later, on September 4, 1922, that the first summer commencement was held. Since the first commencement in 1882, the University of Colorado Boulder has awarded more than 350,000 degrees. The traditional Norlin Charge to the graduates was first read by President George Norlin to the June 1935 graduating class. You are now certified to the world at large as alumni of the university. She is your kindly mother and you her cherished sons and daughters. This exercise denotes not your severance from her, but your union with her. Commencement does not mean, as many wrongly think, the breaking of ties and the beginning of life apart. Rather it marks your initiation in the fullest sense into the fellowship of the university, as bearers of her torch, as centers of her influence, as promoters of her spirit. The university is not the campus, not the buildings on campus, not the faculties, not the students of any one time—not one of these or all of them. The university consists of all who come into and go forth from her halls, who are touched by her influence, and who carry on her spirit. Wherever you go, the university goes with you. Wherever you are at work, there is the university at work.
