Boise Curb-Side Glass Recycling

We present an analysis of Boise’s newly implemented curb-side glass recycling program using primary and secondary research sources. The results of the research suggest that the program in its current form is ineffective and inefficient. Our research advocates for the passage of a Bottle Bill, the implementation of a free curb-side glass recycling program, and an education and enforcement program

Exploring Interim Library Leadership Positions from a Variety of Perspectives

Have you been wondering if library management is for you? What is it like to be in an interim leadership position? In times of resource scarcity, long hiring processes, and temporary leaves, interim positions are common practice in libraries. Join us for a conversation about interim leadership positions. Our moderator and panelists, from both public and academic libraries, will share their experiences in interim roles, offer suggestions for being successful in an interim position, share their thoughts on the benefits and limitations of interim positions, and offer advice for starting as well as transitioning away from these positions when the time comes. There will be time for attendee questions and participation

Utilization of Target-Specific, Hypersensitive Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae To Determine the Mode of Action of Antifungal Compounds

Target-specific hypersusceptible strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used to screen antifungal compounds. Two novel Erg7p inhibitors were identified, providing proof of principle of the approach taken. However, observed hypersensitivities to antifungals acting via other targets imply that use of this tool to identify the mode of action requires significant deconvolution
