Abstract Introduction: As part of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada’s (TRC) Final Report on the history and legacy of residential schools in Canada, ninety-four (94) Calls to Action were identified. Of those, seven are health-specific. The objective of this research paper is to determine how Canadian health library websites are responding to these calls to action. Methods: The authors conducted an initial literature review to gain an understanding of the context of Indigenous health in Canada. A content analysis of Canadian health library websites was conducted to track mentions of the TRC and their responses to the need for Indigenous-focused resources. Results: The results of content analysis indicated few online responses to the TRC’s Calls to Action from Canadian health libraries. Only thirty-three per cent of Canadian health libraries had content that was Indigenous-focused, and only about fifteen per cent of health libraries had visible content related to the TRC’s Calls to Action. Academic and consumer health libraries were more likely to have both TRC- and Indigenous-focused content. Discussion: Nuances related to the research question resulted in some challenges to research design. For example, website content analysis is an imperfect indicator of real-world action. Limitations in research design notwithstanding, visibility is an important part of conveying commitment to the TRC, and the information available indicates the Canadian medical community is not living up to that commitment. Conclusion: Canadian health libraries need to do more to show a visible commitment to the TRC’s Calls to Action.

This article deals with the methodological practices applied by the teacher to the teaching of literature at the Elementaryl level. The objective is to carry out an investigation about some of the main questions concerning the use of such methodologies in literary text. We analyze the main theoretical and practical aspects related to the importance, the character, the functionality of the method and some peculiarities regarding its application, considering the prescriptions of the normative documents. Next, we reflect on the commitment of the teacher and the efforts of the students regarding the reception to the literary text. As a theoretical contribution to the discussions we did a literature review on aspects Bordini and Aguiar theory (1993), Cosson (2014), Colomer (2007) and Lopes (1994) among others. The activities used to collect the data of the field research consisted of the observation of practical classes, whose focus was on the use of Didactic Sequences applied to work with the genre poem in the classroom and an interview with teachers of the public education. Results indicated that the main positive aspects concerning the method used to work with literary text were highlighted in the final report. In addition to that, it showed that it is vital that teachers use appropriate methodological guidelines, which will assist him in the didactic processes including the choice of an appropriate method, respecting the student’s age group and its experiential context.

A literature review of test data that have become available since the 1979 toxicological safety report on 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol (BNPD) is presented and discussed. The earlier conclusion that BNPD is safe as a cosmetic ingredient at concentrations up to 0.1% except under circumstances where its action with amines or amides can result in the formation of nitrosamines or nitrosamides is reaffirmed. The new data suggest the possibility that when it is absorbed, this ingredient may contribute to endogenous formation of nitrosamines in humans.

Context.—Communication in surgical pathology is complex and includes multiple facets. Objective.—To discuss different aspects of pathology practice that represent quality communication in surgical pathology. Data Sources.—Literature review. Conclusions.—Achieving quality communication in surgical pathology is dependent on pathologists addressing multiple situations including managing physicians' expectations for turnaround time and ancillary testing, understanding what information is needed to manage the patient at intraoperative consultation and in the final report, assuring adequate report content with the use of synoptic checklist reports, and using report formatting suggestions that aid report comprehension. Finally, the pathologists' availability to answer questions and discuss cases is an important factor in effective communication, including their willingness to verbally report urgent and significant unexpected diagnoses to ensure that important diagnoses are not overlooked.

The existence of tax treaties has raised a base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) concern through the circumvention of the provisions of those treaties. Consequently, following the release of the BEPS Action 6 Final Report by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the Principal Purpose Test (PPT) has been introduced as a general anti abuse rule (GAAR) for tax treaties. As a BEPS action minimum standard, the PPT clauses are considered sufficient to prevent tax treaty abuses. However, since there has been no sufficiently clear guidance to the PPT implementation, several interpretation issues seem to arise. This situation is likely to put uncertainties for both tax administrations and taxpayers. This article aims to provide a literature review of the PPT clauses interpretation so as to help them to further address such issues. The discussion focuses on 4 (four) main elements of the PPT, (1) the interpretation of the phrase “one of the principal purposes”; (2) the reasonableness element; (3) the object and purpose of the relevant treaty provision; and (4) the burden of proof of the PPT.

The systematic records process of Peraturan Pemerintah is also balanced with the application of security classification and records access. This classification is to protect the information and physical records from damage and lose so that the records are available, easy to read, intact, authentic, trustworthy, and save. There are three methods used in writing this final report. Participation observation that was done by joining in process of records managing in Ministry of State Secretary of Indonesia from processing to records service in Bagian Arsip. Interview that was done by asking and answering to records managers who manage and give the records service in Ministry of State Secretary of Indonesia. The third is literature review which is used as reference and to collect the data in writing this final project. The records services of Peraturan Pemerintah in Kementrian Sekretariat Negara Republik Indonesia has been appropriate to the security classification and records access. However, there is less coordination between Bagian Arsip, PPID, and Asisten Deputi Hukum on providing clarity in charge of records service of the original draft file. Pengolahan arsip Peraturan Pemerintah secara sistematis diimbangi dengan penerapan klasifikasi keamanan dan akses arsip. Klasifikasi ini bertujuan untuk melindungi fisik dan informasi arsip dari kerusakan dan kehilangan agar dapat tetap tersedia, mudah dibaca, utuh, otentik, andal serta terjaga keamanannya. Terdapat tiga metode yang digunakan dalam penyusunan tugas akhir ini. Observasi partisipasi yang dilakukan dengan turut serta langsung dalam proses pengelolaan arsip di Kementerian Sekretariat Negara Republik Indonesia dari pengolahan sampai layanan arsip di Bagian Arsip. Wawancara yang dilakukan dengan tanya jawab kepada arsiparis yang mengelola dan memberikan layanan arsip di Kementerian Sekretariat Negara Republik Indonesia. Studi pustaka yang digunakan sebagai referensi dan pengumpulan data dalam penulisan tugas akhir. Layanan arsip Peraturan Pemerintah di Kementerian Sekretariat Negara Republik Indonesia sudah berdasarkan pada klasifikasi keamanan dan akses arsip. Namun terdapat kendala yang menghambat yaitu kurangnya koordinasi antara Bagian Arsip, PPID, dan Asisten Deputi Hukum dalam memberikan kejelasan penanggungjawab layanan arsip berkas naskah asli.
