January 4, 2020 was the 30th anniversary of the death of Professor Jan Żak, who died prematurely at the age of 67. His work and scientific activities were known and appreciated in  various countries and during difficult times when he was professionally involved in archeology. The biography of Professor Jan Żak resulted largely from the spirit of the times in which he lived, but also from his open, curious personality. He touched the warfare, and his professional life took place in the realities of the People's Republic of Poland; he also witnessed its dramatic end. The aim of this article is not only to recall the methodological and theoretical foundations of J. Żak's scientific work, but also to try to answer the question about the contemporary methodology of archeology, practiced by the Professor's students and subsequent generations.

Southwest Monsoon Rainfall

India has a long tradition of scientific work or, long range forecasting of the southwest monsoon ever since the times of Blanford and Walker In the early Parts of this century, the recent decades have witnessed increased research in regard to the development of new long range forecast models in the India Meteorological Department which have, given correct long range (seasonal) forecasts of southwest monsoon rainfall, over the country as a whole, during, the successive four year~, 1988 to 1991, Presently, four models namely, Para-metric Power Regression, Dynamic Stochastic Transfer and Improved Multiple Regression models are being used for formulating the seasonal forecast of monsoon rainfall over the country as a whole, The forecast is issued in two stages, In the first stage a tentative inference which is qualitative in nature is issued before the middle of April based mainly on the Parametric model which utilizes signals from 16 regional and global parameters that are related to land, ocean and atmospheric forcing and show physical linkages with monsoon. In the second stage, a firm quantitative forecast is issued towards the end of the May and is based on the remaining three models mentioned above, although higher weight age is given to the Power Regression Model which has shown encouraging performance during the last four years. In this paper, these recently developed models and the scientific basis underlying these are discussed, Data on validation of these Operational models, used for the long range  forecast during the past four years (1988-91) are also presented.

Attention To Students

This scientific work aims to provide creative innovations in guidance and counseling services using the BK media to explore student careers. Entering the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, students today must have the ability and skills to predict a rapidly changing future, especially concerning career problems. Guidance and Counseling Teachers here play an essential role in developing students' potential, and one way is to optimize the role of Guidance and Counseling in schools by optimizing services about career exploration. For support services on career exploration,  BK (Guidance and Counseling) media needed to improve students' understanding of the services provided. One of them uses DEAR (Digital Exploration Career) based media as an alternative and innovation that can use to explore students' careers. DEAR (Digital Exploration Career) is a hypermedia-based BK media. Each use of this media in service delivery also pays attention to students' needs, materials, entertainment, and evaluations so that the media is effective in service delivery even though sometimes without face to face. So that this media provides a new atmosphere and innovation in the provision of BK services so that they can run dynamically by the times. Then DEAR (Digital Exploration Career) Hypermedia-Based Bk Media Innovation is one solution that can use to explore students' careers in the industrial revolution era 4.0

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to involve readers in an exercise in conceptualizing the library workplace of the future and how to prepare librarians to be successful in these future scenarios. Design/methodology/approach This paper introduces a visualization exercise that invites readers to contemplate the likelihood and desirability of five scenarios for libraries of the future. Readers are also invited to create a new scenario. Readers then can reflect on the skills and aptitudes librarians would need to have or acquire in order to succeed in one of the scenarios. The method involves visualization, reflection, and self-assessment. Findings The authors have tested this exercise in in-service training with public, academic, and special librarians as well as with students in graduate library and information science courses. The end result is deep conversation, engagement, and sharing. Research limitations/implications The authors have observations on the effectiveness of this future exercise with students and practicing librarians but did not structure its use as a research project. In years of attending conferences and delivering over 600 conference presentations, the authors have yet to observe a similar future exercise being employed. Practical implications This exercise promotes reflection and discussion. It enables librarians to consider these scenarios on their own or in groups of varying sizes. It has application in understanding the complexity of futurism and how it might impact their future lives. And it emphases that individual librarians have some degree of independence in how they respond to change and, ultimately, a future much different from the present. Social implications Libraries are social institutions and their services reflect and respond to changes in society. Recent changes in governance around the world, warfare, the refugee crisis, and episodes of violence have contributed to tension. These are the times when librarians are called on more than ever to respond. Considering possible and improbable futures and one’s response to those futures are helpful in preparing one’s professional response in these difficult times. Originality/value This paper introduces an original model for discussing many possible futures for libraries and for librarians to consider their roles in those futures.

The article is devoted to the analysis of interdisciplinary humanitarian studies and the 30th anniversary of the scientific school established by the Honored Scientist of the Russian Federation, Professor, Doctor of Art History Tatyana Semenovna Zlotnikova. Yaroslavl State Pedagogical University, where the well-known Russian scientific school of cultural studies was born, is also home to the World of the Russian Province Research Center, the Dissertation Council, and several journals reviewed by the Higher Attestation Commission. Professor T.S. Zlotnikova is the founder and scientific leader of these institutions. The success of scientific work is measured today as a global scientific demand, and practical significance for its local space. Scientists from the best research centers in Russia participate in annual "Yaroslavl conferences", grant projects and publications. Yaroslavl cultural projects involve all age and professional levels: from students, undergraduates, postgraduates to doctoral students and professors. However, even with the mass audience, Professor Zlotnikova and her students are talented at building a dialogue. This article deals primarily with the methodology and publishing genres put forward by the Yaroslavl Scientific School of Cultural Studies: an analysis of the creative personality, the concept of Russian mass culture and a fundamentally new textbook on cultural studies. The publications of Professor T. S. Zlotnikova and her colleagues on these problems have a significant heuristic potential, are of high practical significance and have been awarded numerous grants. On the one hand, the 30th anniversary of the Yaroslavl scientific school of cultural studies is a phenomenon of scientific life; on the other hand, the analysis of topical problems of cultural studies based on the material of the multigenre editions of Professor T.S. Zlotnikova is a methodological and research work

Abstract A question arises regarding theology and its functions when trying to cope with the coronavirus pandemic. Surely Christian faith – along with other religions – can play a role in helping to deal with this crisis, both for individuals and collectively. Theology connects with the effort religious faith and Churches perform and provides models and ideas to highlight the Christian sense of what is happening, that is, in reference to a saving God. Four keys, rooted in the Christian tradition, are proposed that allow us to understand these difficult times in a meaningful way, that is, as revealing “signs of the times” for believers, assisting them in their struggle to cope with these challenging circumstances.

During my years of scientific work in Colombia, I have faced administrative difficulties which deserve comments to help improve these situations. Although the whole procedure of doing science in our country is a greater challenge than in the developed world, I would like to highlight some specific points where I feel we can take some measures to help our work.i) The very slow editorial processes of the journals. This is actually a problem shared by other countries in the region; however, our journals call my attention given the very slow and cumbersome process of revising and publishing a manuscript. This is, I feel, a problem for the whole scientific community in the country, which involves a journal editor and goes through the referees and the authors of the manuscripts. Table 1 illustrates how serious the problem is; it shows the mean number of days for accepting and publishing original papers and reviews papers that appeared in three biomedical journals category A (according to Publindex, by Colciencias www.colciencias.gov.co) in Colombia during the past two years, compared to the time taken for the same procedures in three international biomedical journals, matched by topic with the Colombian ones and also ranked A according to the homologation issued by Colcien­cias. Our journals published 214 papers during the last two years, with a mean of 214 days for a paper to be accepted and 334 days for it to be published. These numbers are far above those found for international journals in which a manuscript takes only 137 days to be accepted and 229 days to be published (n=205). Moreover, the international journals published online versions of the accepted papers up to 6 months in advance of the printed publication. Our delays affect the visibility and impact of our research, and because the speed of publication is an important issue for authors when choosing a journal to submit manuscripts, our numbers deter potential inter­national authors. I would like to suggest some measures that can be taken to improve our numbers: to include as a criteria for the classification of the journals an index of the speed of manuscript publication; to improve process management with the help of specialized softwares; to publish the times taken by the referees to evaluate the works, for instance in the section devoted to listing their names as used by some journals; to conduct pedagogy on the importance of timely revision of a manuscript for a colleague; to create precise short forms to be filled out by the referees; to unify the instructions to authors for all the journals in a given field; to increase the database of reviewers for the journals with national and international scientists; to pay for the evaluation depending on the time taken by the reviewer; to include a strict deadline for the authors to send back a corrected version of a revised manuscript; to move from printed, more expensive journals, to online, cheaper journals, as a means of increasing the number of pages per issue.

Sir Syed’s vision to bring together fragmented Muslim efforts for education led to the foundation of Muhammadan Educational Conference. This vision was passionately taken forward by Mohsin-ul-Mulk. He was a man of pragmatic approach and took initiatives to keep the spirit of the conference alive during difficult times. Sir Syed and Mohsin-ul Mulk may have been in disagreement on certain issues, but most of the times they found a meeting ground in their common passion for the betterment of Muslim community. Mohsin-ul Mulk’s untiring efforts not only kept the conference active but also extended its scope to make it an all India phenomenon.
