Through the web of library catalogues, library management systems and myriad digital resources, libraries have become repositories not only for physical and digital information resources but also for enormous amounts of data about the interactions between these resources and their users. Bringing together leading practitioners and academic voices, this book considers library catalogue data as a vital research resource.Divided into four sections, each approaches library catalogues, collections and records from a different angle, from exploring methods for examining such data; to the politics of catalogues and library data; their interdisciplinary potential; and practical uses and applications of catalogues as data. Other topics the volume discusses include:Practical routes to preparing library catalogue data for researchersThe ethics of library metadata privacy and reuseData-driven decision makingData quality and collections biasPreserving, resurrecting and restoring dataThe uses and potential of historical library dataThe intersection of catalogue data, AI and Large Language Models (LLMs)This comprehensive book will be an essential read for practitioners in the GLAM sector, particularly those dealing with collections and catalogue data, and LIS academics and students.

The Moulster and Griffiths nursing model is the first developed specifically for learning disability nurses. This book describes the model and offers a solid framework to assess, plan, reflect on and evaluate person-centred care. With approximately 1.5 million people in Britain living with a learning disability and a proven correlation between the use of models of care and the achievements of outcomes for those supported, this book is the perfect tool for learning disability nurses. It ensures that there is a shared vision for learning disability nursing practice, and helps nurses address a wide variety of heath care needs.By providing an in-depth description of the model and accompanying downloadable material, the book provides a dedicated structure for learning disability nursing, and remains unique in its transferability to different clinical settings.

Das Pflegemodell zur person-zentrierten Behindertenpflege Menschen mit körperlichen und geistigen Behinderungen sowie Lern- und Fähigkeitsstörungen zu pflegen und zu begleiten ist ein wichtiges pflegerisches Aufgabenfeld in der stationären, ambulanten, gemeindenahen Versorgung. In Deutschland haben 1.014.000 Menschen eine geistig-seelische Behinderung, deren Beeinträchtigungen in Wechselwirkung mit verschiedenen Barrieren ihre volle Teilhabe am gesellschaftlichen Leben behindern könnten. Daher bedürfen sie in unterschiedlichem Umfang pflegerischer und heilpädagogischer Unterstützung. Das Fachbuch der britischen Pflegeexpert_innen für Behindertenpflege beschreibt und begründet ein Rahmenmodell zur Pflege von Menschen mit Behinderungen und zeigt, wie Pflegefachpersonen es in der Praxis anwenden können. Es orientiert Pflegende verständlich, wie sie den Pflegeprozess von Menschen mit Behinderungen wirksam steuern und den Pflege- und Hilfebedarf einschätzen, planen, ausführen, reflektieren und evaluieren können. Ziel ist eine auf die Person des behinderten Menschen ausgerichtete Pflege, die auf komplexe Bedürfnisse von Menschen mit Behinderungen, ihren Angehörigen und Bezugspersonen eingeht und gute Versorgungsergebnisse erzielt. Die deutsche Ausgabe wurde bezüglich rechtlicher sowie pflegetheoretischer, pflegeprozessorientierter und -praktischer Inhalte adaptiert.
