    Why Is Hamlet Crazy

    The Tragedy Hamlet has had a centuries old controversial disagreement of whether the character Hamlet in the play is mad or is just pretending to be mad for a dramatic effect to justify his actions throughout the play. Some might think that Hamlet’s past has made him confused and stressed causing him to claim to be mad to shield the true state of emotion that he is in, however given his actions throughout the play he has demonstrated immoral and irrational decisions that have questioned his values and caused him to deviate from the rational person he was to the mad individual he has become. The state of madness he has presented is not a random action that sprouted from an empty abyss, but it is completely justified as a simple cause and effect situation. Hamlet is an extremely complex character and has many positive attributes that affect his actions as the madness he obtains appears evident. The madness…

    library management system

    In one of the first papers on library management systems (LMS) in the UK to be published during the review period of 1991-2000, Arfield 1 describes how the changing economics of computing resulted in staff at Reading University Library wishing to move away from a system shared between various libraries to an integrated library management system under local control. Reading had been a member of the SWALCAP (originally standing for the South Western Academic Libraries Co-operative Automation Project) which had provided shared cataloguing and circulation services to a number of academic libraries in the UK since 1979. However, ageing equipment was becoming increasingly unreliable and staff at Reading felt that the SWALCAP service was unable to cope with the increasing number of terminals that were required for the users. This situation was replicated in other academic and public libraries at the start of the 1990s and many moved over, or migrated, to integrated library management systems (in Reading’s case the LIBS 100 system from CLSI was chosen). Jones 2, of the House of Lords Library, describes how the decline in the number of customers of the shared services resulted in the decision by SLS (SWALCAP Library Services) to withdraw this service. Following a study undertaken by an external consultant (when it was recommended that a multi-user integrated LMS be chosen) a decision was made to implement the ADVANCE system from the company Geac in the House of Lords. Another reason for libraries choosing to replace their LMS during this period was the fact that some LMSs were not designed to cope with dates in the 2000s –i.e. they were not Year 2000 (or Y2K) compliant.…
