Reference/information services in Iowa libraries, 1969.

This document contains statistics and reports about Iowa public libraries, particularly in the areas of reference and information services. It includes tables, graphs, maps and information about the use of public libraries, loans, holdings, data by region and population and much more. The information was compiled for a consultants meeting for the Iowa State Traveling Library.

Electronic Reference Library Phase I Report, 1999

This report describes the first phase in a project to develop an electronic reference library (ERL) to help Iowa transportation officials efficiently access information in critical and heavily used documents. These documents include Standard Specifications for Bridge and Highway Construction (hereinafter called Standard Specifications), design manuals, standard drawings, the Construction Manual, and Material Instruction Memoranda (hereinafter called Material IMs). Additional items that could be included to enhance the ERL include phone books, letting dates, Internet links, computer programs distributed by the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT), and local specifications, such as the Urban Standard Specifications of Public Improvements. All cross-references should be hyper linked, and a search engine should be provided. Revisions noted in the General Supplemental Specifications (hereinafter called the Supplemental Specifications) should be incorporated into the text of the Standard Specifications. The Standard Specifications should refer to related sections of other documents, and there should be reciprocal hyper links in those other documents. These features would speed research on critical issues and save staff time. A master plan and a pilot version were both developed in this first phase of the ERL.

Reference values of fat-free and fat masses by bioelectrical impedance analysis in 3393 healthy subjects.

Determination of fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM) is of considerable interest in the evaluation of nutritional status. In recent years, bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) has emerged as a simple, reproducible method used for the evaluation of FFM and FM, but the lack of reference values reduces its utility to evaluate nutritional status. The aim of this study was to determine reference values for FFM, FM, and %FM by BIA in a white population of healthy subjects, to observe the changes in these values with age, and to develop percentile distributions for these parameters. Whole-body resistance of 1838 healthy white men and 1555 women, aged 15-64 y, was determined by using four skin electrodes on the right hand and foot. FFM and FM were calculated according to formulas validated for the subject groups and analyzed for age decades. This is the first study to present BIA-determined age- and sex-specific percentiles for FFM, FM, and %FM for healthy subjects, aged 15-64 y. Mean FM and %FM increased progressively in men and after age 45 y in women. The results suggest that any weight gain noted with age is due to a gain in FM. In conclusion, the data presented as percentiles can serve as reference to evaluate the normality of body composition of healthy and ill subject groups at a given age.
