Presentation on the concepts of open access and scholarly communication. This presentation covers the background of these topics and their definitions, tools and policies for open access, technology and emerging trends, challenges/opportunities that open access faces, and ultimately relates this information to open access initiatives in developing countries.

Article using preferential solubility of a polymer in supercritical CO2 to develop a new architecture using biocompatible polymers based on porous core-sheath fiber fabrication technique.

Article describes study aiming to investigate factors that best predict patient's satisfaction with their emergency department (ED) visit, as well as examine whether patients and their families perceived the factors related to satisfaction similarly.

This article performs X-ray photoelectron, Raman, and diffraction studies of few-layered pulsed laser deposited WS₂ films as a function of laser fluence and frequency to understand the impact on structure and properties.

This article microstructurally tailors an exceptionally high-strength titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo (Ti6246) through friction stir processing (FSP) in order to provide enhanced weight savings and improved fuel efficiency. The specific strength attained in one of the conditions is close to 450 MPa m³/mg, which is about 22% to 85% greater than any commercially available metallic material. This novel nano particle strengthened Ti alloy is a potential replacement for many structural alloys, enabling significant weight reduction opportunities.

Article identifies exceptional glucose reliance among squamous cell carcinomas (SCC)s dictated by hyperactive GLUT1-mediated glucose influx.

Article describes study which tested if targeted and persistent changes in steady-state protein expression underlie this hypoxic heart phenotype, using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomics.

Presentation for Ohio Valley Group of Technical Services Librarians Annual Conference 2019. This presentation argues that Authority control is an important part of cataloging since it helps provide consistent access to names, titles, subjects, and genre/forms. There are a variety of methods for providing authority control, ranging from manual, time-consuming processes to automated processes. However, the automated processes often seem out of reach for small libraries when it comes to using a pricey vendor or needing a cataloger with particular expertise. The presentation introduces several ideas on how to handle authority control using a variety of tools, both paid and free. It also describes how their library handles authority control; compare vendors and programs that can be used to provide varying levels of authority control; and demonstrate a few methods of providing some authority control for free using MarcEdit.

This article produced descriptive narrative outcomes and data visualizations including information about top soft system methodology (SSM) authors, author citation impacts, common dissemination outlets for SSM work, and other relevant metrics commonly used to measure academic impact. The goal of this piece is to depict who, what, why, when, and where SSM had the greatest impact on research, systems thinking, and methodology after nearly 40 years of use, as we look towards its future as a methodological approach used to comprehend complex problem situations.

The purpose of this review article is to discuss how PKCη regulates various cellular processes that may contribute to its contrasting roles in cancer. Protein kinase C-eta (PKCη) is a unique member of the PKC family since its regulation is distinct from other PKC isozymes. PKCη was shown to regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and cell death.

This article demonstrates a facile single-step processing route for the development of bimodal grain structure in austenitic stainless steel, SS316L.

Article describes study which demonstrates that a new, stable, artificial TATA (T — thymine, A — adenine) box is recognized by amino acids recognizing the natural TATA box.

Presentation given at the Preservation and Archiving Special Interest Group (PASIG) conference 2019 held in Mexico City, Mexico. This presentation discusses the Texas Digital Newspaper Program (TDNP) at the UNT Libraries and the process to enhance the sustainability of the program.

This article focuses on investigating the residual stress values associated with a part fabricated by Selective Laser Melting technology (SLM) when this is subjected further to forces on single point incremental forming (SPIF) operation of variable wall angle.

This presentation describes the process of using machine-learning algorithms to identify and extract publications from web archives.

This article assesses the effects of sterilization in materials manufactured using additive manufacturing by employing a sterilization technique used in the food industry.

The article shows how a recently-introduced method from algebraic topology, namely proximal planar vortex 1-cycles, might be helpful in detecting hidden features of the shapes and holes in images, therefore contributing to the solution of both cold and fresh forensic cases. They apply this technique in a recent case, Aldo Moro's death.

Presentation the 2018 International Internet Preservation Consortium General Assembly & Web Archiving Conference. This presentation describes the End of Term archive project and its activities after the 2016 end of term.

Study assesses food choice priorities (FCP) and associations with consumption of fruits and vegetables (FV), fiber, added sugars from non-beverage sources, and sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) among college students, and how those choices evolve over their first year of college.

Presentation for the 2018 International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions International News Media Conference. This presentation describes how the Texas Digital Newspaper Program partners with other libraries and museum to preserve materials, and how this can act as a safeguard after natural disasters in the area.

Presentation for the Cedar Hill Genealogy Society. This presentation describes how The Portal to Texas History can facilitate genealogical research.

Study examines the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) database wasto identify fatal accidents during 2015 in the United States in which a deceased pilot used a prescribed medication or had a disease that potentially reduced pilot performance and was not reported to their aeromedical practitioners (AMEs) in order to gain insight on issues with the duty of notification process.

This article uses panel data for eighteen Latin American countries from 1995 to 2015 to study whether clarity of responsibility can influence presidential decision-making concerning unpopular policies, especially microeconomic policies.
