Nigeria's non-government organization (NGO) libraries for the visually impaired has over the years been at the forefront of information services provision to persons with visual impairment. This study adopted a survey research design to investigate use of alternative formats and perceptions of information services to the visually impaired, focusing on two purposively chosen NGO libraries for the visually impaired in Nigeria. Using a complete enumeration approach, data were gathered from 180 users of the libraries through the use of a structured questionnaire with a reliability score (${\alpha}=0.74$). Data from 112 (62.2%) of the 180 administered copies of a questionnaire that were retrieved were analysed. The study found that Braille materials had a high level of utilization ($\bar{x}=4.46$) and were the most frequently utilized (90.9%). Perception of information services by the visually impaired was positive while use of alternative formats was significantly and positively related to users' perception of information services (r = .041; p < 0.05). The study recommends improved transcription and investment in alternative formats and in e-resources. It also recommends collaborations to widen access as well as constant evaluation of services.

The rainfall observation systems have largely been improved in Japan. The Japan Meteorological Agency, prefecture governments, and other administrative bodies have also increased the number of rain gauges thru out the country. The density of observatories is now one per several $\km^2$. Heavy rainfall information systems have been improved. Besides it, the Internet was popularized in the late 1990s, and has been used to transmit data of heavy rainfall. Internet accessible cellular phones have been popular in Japan since 1999. Such phones are expected to be useful in the field of disaster warning announcements, because they can automatically notify users bye-mail of pending disasters. The use of the Internet during natural disasters is groundbreaking in Japan today. However, in order to use disaster information effectively on Internet it is necessary to investigate how to use the information during the rainfall disaster. Therefore in our study we suggest methods on the effective construction and their use of information technology on Internet.

본 연구는 한국에 거주하는 이민자의 건강정보 이용실태를 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 서울과 경기도 소재의 '이주노동자 무료 진료소'를 이용하는 이민자 171명을 대상으로 설문 조사하였다. 수집된 자료는 기술통계, Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test로 분석하였다. 이민자의 건강정보 이용빈도는 낮은 편으로 월 1회 미만으로 건강 정보를 이용한다는 응답자가 가장 많았다. 건강정보 이용빈도는 나이가 많거나, 직업이 없거나, 질병이 있는 대상자에서 더 높았다. 주요한 건강정보 출처는 인터넷이었고, 나이와 인터넷 사용 여부에 따라 건강정보 출처에 차이가 있었다. 나이가 증가하거나 인터넷을 사용하지 않은 응답자의 건강정보 출처로 인터넷 사용 비율이 낮았다. 건강정보의 주요한 활용대상자는 본인이었고, 지각된 건강상태가 건강하지 않은 대상자는 본인을 위하여 건강정보를 더 많이 사용하였다. 본 연구의 결과에서처럼 이민자의 대부분이 건강정보를 활발히 사용하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 나이가 증가하거나 건강하지 못한 경우에는 건강문제를 해결하기 위하여 건강정보 사용이 증가하면서 건강정보의 필요성이 나타났다. 그러므로 이민자의 건강정보 이용 증진과 효과적인 건강정보 제공을 위해서는 대상자의 특성을 고려하여 건강정보를 다양한 방법으로 제공하는 것이 중요하고, 이를 위하여 보건의료의 정책이나 서비스 개발이 필요하다.

This study aims to develop the Extended Urban Land Information System (EULIS) which can support the sustainable urban management. Although the existing Urban Land Use Information system (ULUIS) that aids the micro-level land use information is a good means for the understanding of urban spatial structure and district-level planning and management (such as urban design, redevelopment planning and district-level transportation planning, etc.), it has some limitations in supplying the information for sustainable urban management, such as environmental and traffic analysis, urban infrastructure's carrying capacity analysis, etc. The EULIS is designed to efficiently supply the information for sustainable urban management. For the successful construction of EULIS, the followings have to be considered. 1) the integration of topographic maps which contain the building's footprints and cadastral maps which contain the parcel's boundary, 2) the integration of EULIS and FM (Facility Management) system for the full utilization of information about capacity analysis of infrastructure, 3) the construction of standardized georeferencing system and spatial unit for the combined use of environment and traffic census data. This study shows 1) why EULIS is needed for the sustainable urban management and which elements are needed for the system,2) the E-R data model for the EULIS, 3) the strategies for the construction of EULIS and 4) the conclusion.

Rapid integration of information technology into health care systems has included the use of highly portable systems-in particular, personal digital assistants (PDAs). With their large built-in memories, fast processors, wireless connectivity, multimedia capacity, and large library of applications, PDAs have been widely adopted by physicians and nurses for patient tracking, disease management, medical references and drug information, enhancing quality of health care. Many health-related PDA applications are available to both dietetics professionals and clients. Dietetics professionals can effectively use PDAs for client tracking and support, accessing to hospital database or information, and providing better self-monitoring tools to clients. Internship programs for dietetics professionals should include training in the use of PDAs and their dietetics applications, so that new practitioners can stay abreast of this rapidly evolving technology. Several considerations to keep in mind in selecting a PDA and its applications are discussed.

While information technology(IT) users' behaviors has been considered one of the most important research topics and studied in very many ways, 'non-use' has not been focused as a research topic. However, understanding non-use provides new insights for analyzing and understanding the essential nature of IT uses with wider frames and more qualitative dimension. The objective of this study is to provide some guidelines for studying non-use. For this purpose, the previous studies for non-use were reviewed focusing on resistance, suggested potential research issues and some research methodologies based on grounded theory.
