Making Effective Use of the Library
Alan Stutts writes Get thee to the library! There is lots of information available today on the Internet, but only libraries have librarians. Whether you go to a public library or a college library, the first thing you need to do when you walk in the door is find the Reference Desk and introduce yourself. Explain to the librarian that you are conducting research on companies in the hospitality industry. Ask for a list of the resources at the library and write them down.
You want to know which books, magazines, newspapers and databases are available, and where they are located. Using databases can be intimidating. Any reference librarian will give you a personal tutorial on searching if you ask.

Senior citizens have a right to be treated with respect, dignity, and compassion while they are living in nursing homes. Unfortunately, these rights are violated when elder care facility employees emotionally abuse residents. Emotional nursing home abuse can take the form of any act that results in suffering, anguish, emotional distress, or psychological disturbances in residents. When staff members engage in verbally and emotionally abusive behavior, such as humiliation, harassment, threats, deprivation, intimidation, manipulation, and degradation, nursing home residents suffer greatly. Involuntary isolation and unwarranted restriction of activities also can also qualify as emotional abuse.
