Kontaktallergien durch die Inhaltsstoffe von Epoxidharzsystemen sind seit über 20 Jahren in vielen Branchen eine der häufigsten berufsbedingten allergischen Hauterkrankungen. Der Arbeitskreis Epoxidharze hat daher seit seiner Gründung im Jahr 2007 als branchenübergreifende, europäische Initiative unterschiedliche Strategien entwickelt, um das Erkrankungsrisiko zu verringern. Sie zielen einerseits auf die Verbesserung der Ausbildung und Arbeitshygiene ab, andererseits auf die medizinische und toxikologische Forschung zur Identifizierung von allergisierenden Epoxidharzkomponenten sowie die Förderung von Alternativen mit geringerem sensibilisierenden Potenzial.

How can European library staff working in digital humanities connect with peers in the library sector, determine where to find relevant information about digital scholarship, provide their collections as data and to be an equal partner in digital humanities research? The LIBER Digital Humanities Working Group was created as a participatory knowledge network in 2017 to address these questions. Through a series of workshops, knowledge sharing activities, and a Europe-wide survey and resulting report, the Working Group engaged with the international LIBER DH community. Useful reflections are provided on organising an open, voluntary DH community and planning for inclusive activities that benefit digital scholarship in European research libraries.

In 1988, a Joint Commission (9 and 25) meeting on the causes of the well-known limitations on the precision of infrared astronomy led to several suggestions to improve matters (see Milone 1989). These included better reporting of the photometric systems in use by practitioners, redesign of the infrared passbands to be more optimally placed inside the atmospheric windows, and development of a method to ascertain the water vapor content of the atmosphere when the astronomical infrared measurements were being made. An Infrared Astronomy Working Group was formed to look into the matter. Advice and suggestions were solicited from the community at large. All who volunteered information became, de facto, members of the Working Group. A small subgroup composed of Andrew Young, Chris Stagg, and Milone set to work on the central of the recommendations: improvement of the passbands. Young, Milone, k Stagg (1994) (hereafter YMS) summarized the work: existing JHKLMN and Q infrared passbands were found to be both far from standardized, and all too frequently defined, to various degrees, by the water vapor and other components of the terrestrial atmosphere. Following extensive numerical simulations with a MODTRAN 3 terrestrial-atmospheres model package, and Kurucz stellar atmospheres, we suggested a set of improved infrared passbands designed explicitly to fit within, and not be defined by, the terrestrial atmospheric windows; however, we sought to optimize them so as to get the maximum throughput consistent with plausible limitations on precision of manufacture of the filters. In 1995 and again in 1997, a number of improvements were made in the code with which the improved passbands were designed. While they do not much affect the optimization trials and thus the passband recommendations, they have been used to extend the modeling.

For the 2019 Information and Museum Studies Conference, a group of five Master’s students offered a workshop titled Dismantling White Supremacy in GLAMs and GLAM Education [Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums]. This workshop was based on activities developed by the Archivists Against collective. This workshop was not a one-off event, but rather the first action of the Diversity Working Group, a student-led entity at the Faculty of Information.   Keywords: Archives, Libraries, Museums, Archival Education, White Supremacy, Professional Education, Equity, Race, Diversity
