Abstract

Since librarians understand what it means to have a job devalued, to suffer from salary and other inequities, we would not expect them to inflict similar inequities on those whom they employ to run their library associations. But this supposition was challenged during a study of the benefits accorded state and regional association executive officers.

Abstract

Long recognized as the darling of public television, Julia Child, the star of The French Chef, Julia and Company, and Dining with Julia (among other popular programs), is also an author of rare elegance. Collectively, her works constitute a compendium of information on two major areas of culinary interest in the United States: French and American cooking. Julia, as she is affectionately known to her legions of fans, burst on the American publishing horizon in 1961 with the publication by Alfred A. Knopf of Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Vol. I. Along with her coauthors, Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle, Julia became an instant nationally recognized author. What distinguishes Mastering the Art of French Cooking from its antecedents is its thoroughness in scholarship and coverage, underscored by a refreshing, subtle wit. Volume II follows the same format—with the same incomparable results. Julia and her coauthors thoughtfully listed not only ingredients, but all necessary utensils and other batterie de cuisine. Both volumes are illustrated in detailed pen and ink drawings rendered by Paul Child, Julia's husband.

Abstract

This paper analyzes the impact of economic downturns on the revenue and expense sides of city financing for the period 2003 to 2009 using a convenience sample of the audited end of year financial reports for thirty midsized US cities. The analysis focuses on whether and how quickly and how extensively revenue and spending directions from past years are altered by recessions. A seven year series of Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) data serves to explore whether citiesʼ revenues and spending, especially the traditional property tax and core functions such as public safety and infrastructure withstood the brief 2001 and the persistent 2007 recessions? The findings point to consumption (spending) over stability (revenue minus expense) for the recession of 2007, particularly in 2008 and 2009.

Abstract

Purpose

By considering the role of technology in museum archives and exhibitions, as well as company archives and production, this paper aims to present that digital technologies offer new approaches and tools to consider fashion know-how, traditions and memories.

Design/methodology/approach

Through an extensive literature review and a close consideration of multiple sources, this paper analyzes fashion, tradition and knowledge creation through the lens of museum and company archives. A section on museum archives analyzes the role of fashion in the museum and the use of technology in cataloging, online resources and exhibitions for knowledge transfer of fashion history. The second half of the paper considers the relationship between heritage, company archives and technology in branding and consumer engagement.

Findings

The paper summarizes recent scholarship in the fields of fashion archives and demonstrates the still current importance of heritage in generating new design and exhibition practices. Despite having its roots in the past, heritage demonstrates continuity with the present and looks to the future with the same devotion and commitment, thus guaranteeing quality and authenticity for both museum collections and company productions.

Originality/value

Through a case study methodology, this paper presents how digital technologies can offer new approaches and tools in museum archives and exhibitions, as well as in company archives and collection development, to reconsider and translate fashion know-how, traditions and memories in the digital era.
