Does the library have access to ISO standards? What is the best way to go about finding standards?
Standards are located in ASTM Compass (https://libezp.lib.lsu.edu/login?url=https://secure.astm.org/login?redi…) . We also have IEEE Xplore (https://libezp.lib.lsu.edu/login?url=https://www.ieee.org/ieeexplore/) which has some standards. We also have an engineer guide (https://guides.lib.lsu.edu/c.php?g=354741&p=6002397) that has standards listed. Our STEM Librarian (https://lib.lsu.edu/staff#cambriahuff) can help you find good sources pertaining to standards. **STEM Librarian will start summer 2022 Answered by: Electronic Resources
Where can I find information about patents and trademarks?
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) (https://www.uspto.gov/) provides information, publications, forms, guides, and services on searching and registering for patents and trademarks. In addition, LSU Libraries has a Patent and Trademark Resource Center (PTRC), representative who can answer general questions about the patent and trademark process. You can schedule a one-on-one consultation with them by appointment (https://lsu.libcal.com/appointments/caple) . You can also explore the librarys Patent and Trademark Resource Center Research Guide (https://guides.lib.lsu.edu/ptrc) . Answered by: Kendall Caple
Are there any graduate assistantships available?
Most assistantships would be found on the LSU Handshake website (https://www.lsu.edu/careercenter/students/handshake.php) , though some opportunities are handled directly through the hiring department. It wouldn't hurt to check with a staff member in your graduate program to see if they are aware of assistantships not listed on Handshake. ________________________________________________________________________ More information on Handshake.... How to Access Handshake Admitted Students Undergraduate and Graduate students receive access to Handshake on June 15. At that time, you can log in to Handshake using your myLSU email and password at lsu.joinhandshake.com (https://lsu.joinhandshake.com/) or download the Handshake Jobs & Careers App (download in the Apple App Store (https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id1220620171) or download through Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joinhandshake.student…) ). If a user experiences a barrier in access to Handshake or content within due to a disability, please contact the LSU Olinde Career Center at career@lsu.edu (mailto:career@lsu.edu) . For information on how to apply to on-campus and off-campus jobs, visit the Student Employment webpage (https://www.lsu.edu/careercenter/studentemployment/students.php) . If you would like to schedule a meeting with our team, or access other career center resources prior to receiving Handshake access, please contact us at career@lsu.edu (mailto:career@lsu.edu) and we are happy to assist you. Graduate Students: Please note, while some graduate assistantships may be posted in Handshake, most opportunities are managed directly through the hiring department. Please contact your graduate program and campus contacts directly to inquire about available assistantships. Alumni Alumni retain free access to Handshake and to most other career center resources, including appointments with the career center team. View the Alumni Resources page to request Handshake access (https://www.lsu.edu/careercenter/students/alumni.php) . Rsum Uploads Please make note that all rsums must be approved by the LSU Olinde Career Center before becoming active in Handshake for applying for jobs or participating in on-campus interviews. Please be prompt in submitting a rsum for activation in Handshake. The career center makes every effort to be timely in the document approval process, but cannot guarantee a turnaround of less than two (2) business days. Fraudulent and Scam Job Postings We work hard to keep fraudulent postings out of Handshake (https://www.lsu.edu/careercenter/students/handshake.php) by using some common red flags typically considered suspicious. While red flags dont automatically remove a job posting, we research the company and posting if suspicion arises before making a decision. You should research suspicious companies or postings, too (or dont apply). The Fraudulent and Scam Job Postings (https://www.lsu.edu/careercenter/about/FraudulentandScamJobPostingsbook…) guide outlines red flags so you, too, can attempt to identify such scam or fraudulent postings. Our position: Never apply for a suspicious job. Questions? Contact career@lsu.edu (mailto:career@lsu.edu) . Answered by: Gabriella Lindsay

Correspondence from German Concentration Camps and Prisons
This collection consists of items originating from prisoners held in German concentration camps, internment and transit camps, Gestapo prisons, and POW camps, during and just prior to World War II. Most of the collection consists of letters written or received by prisoners, but also includes receipts for parcels, money orders and personal effects; paper currency; and realia, including Star of David badges that Jews were forced to wear.’’
Sage Research Methods
SAGE Research Methods supports beginning and advanced researchers in every step of a research project, from writing a research question, choosing a method, gathering and analyzing data, to writing up and publishing the findings. With information on the full range of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods for the social and behavioral sciences, as well as many methods commonly used in the hard sciences, the book, reference, and journal content in SAGE Research Methods—from SAGE’s renowned methods publishing program— and advanced features help researchers of all levels conduct their research.
Communication Source
Communication Source is the most comprehensive resource on the market for communication research. Communication Source was developed from a merger of high-quality EBSCO databases, Communication and Mass Media Complete and Communication Abstracts (formerly published by Sage), and includes many unique sources not previously available in other databases. Communication Source offers abstracts and indexing as well as full-text content from publications worldwide pertaining to Communication, Linguistics, Rhetoric and Discourse, Speech-Language Pathology, Media Studies and other fields relevant to the discipline.

Economic catch-up of BRICS and escape factors from the middle-income trap from a Schumpeterian perspective
For this paper, we are going to compare five variables in the National Innovation System (Localization, Originality, Diversification, Cycle time of technology, and the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index) for BRICS countries (Brazil, Federation of Russia, India, China, and South Africa). To do so, the paper first classifies BRICS countries into three different groups: fast catch-up, catch-up, and slow or no catch-up. Then, the paper analyses the changes in those five variables for the thirty years using USPTO patent data. The paper finds that fast-catching-up BRICS countries have different trajectories for localization, originality, the cycle time of technology, and HHI from slower catch-up BRICS countries. Then, the paper discusses strategies for middle-income countries to break through the middle-income trap which is different from simply following advanced countries.
The environmental trade-off of fertiliser, residue and catch crop management in Danish cropping systems
Context Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient in agriculture, affecting both crop yields and soil health. In Denmark, one of the most densely farmed regions in the world, excess reactive nitrogen (Nr) compounds are lost to the environment along gaseous and hydrological pathways in forms such as nitrate, ammonia, nitrogen oxides and dinitrogen.Objectives Here, we aim to assess the effect of different field management practices (fertilisation, crop residue management or cultivation of catch crops) on environmental Nr losses and the field scale soil net GHG balance (i.e., sum of soil C stock changes and direct and indirect N2O emissions).Methods For this purpose, highly detailed data from the Danish Agricultural Watershed Monitoring Program (LOOP-program; 2013–2019) were used in combination with the process-based model LandscapeDNDC.Results and conclusions The results indicate that a mixture of organic and synthetic fertilisers turns soils to a stronger net sink of GHGs (∼70 – ∼514 kgCO2−eq ha−1 yr−1) compared to exclusive use of only one type of fertiliser. In addition, incorporating crop residue and cultivation of catch crops increases the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) by 3–11 % on average and decreases environmental Nr losses.Significance These findings emphasize the potential of targeted fertiliser, residue and catch crop management to increase the sustainability of crop production systems in Denmark.
