Ex: A musical adaptation is a musical work that represents a distinct alteration of another work (e.g. a free transcription), a work that paraphrases parts of various works or the general style of another composer, or a work that is merely based on other music (e.g. variations on a them).Ex: These changes have meant modifications, some very time-consuming, to serials catalogues in libraries.Ex: To ensure further that all the index entries generated by chain procedure are indeed helpful, the initial analysis of the chain may require editing.Ex: There is little modulation, whole steps of division being short-circuited and an odd assembly of terms being frequently found: e.g.: LAW see also JURY, JUDGES.Ex: Better flexibility is achieved if the heating, ventilation and lighting can accommodate this move without the need for any alterations.Ex: This kind of large-scale recasting offers an opportunity for the scheme to go forward rather than stagnate until it is completely taken by events.Ex: This action was the redesign of the enquiry form in order to elicit more information from the enquirer.Ex: The entries that result from the rotation mechanism have standard layout, punctuation and typography, all of which have been pre-programmed.Ex: Transitory circumstances of daily life are what cause these shifts.Ex: When the record transfer is complete, the catalog summary screen is shown for the new record so that the user can review and update it.Ex: Hungary faces far-reaching socio-economic transformation which will inevitably affect libraries as well.Ex: The changeover has resulted in more rapid machine-editing of input and reduced costs for cataloguing.Ex: A centralised system was chosen to ensure speedy receipt and dissemination with minimal disturbances.Ex: The very meanings of words like 'library' and 'university' are about to undergo mutations too radical to conceive, much less predict = Los significados mismos de palabras como "biblioteca" y "universidad" están a punto de experimentar cambios demasiado radicales de concevir y cuanto mucho menos de predecir.Ex: There is greater permeability than before between different types of library at the start of a career but, once settled in a post, fewer librarians than before change from one type of library to another.Ex: The author presents suggestions for the reformation of medical library education.Ex: The transition date for the switchover is 1 Oct 2000.Ex: Moreover, we conclude that the process of placing a feminist stamp on working relations is both far from complete and subject to reverses.Ex: This article discusses the effects of changes in the economy on the distribution of work in libraries which indicate a shift away from its female origins.Ex: This article considers the use of a spreadsheet in the shifting of periodicals collections in order to save time.Ex: The recent reorganization has resulted in a merger of the academic and public divisions and a changing of the guard among the company's top officials.Ex: The addition of new feedback techniques produced a significant swing in favour of the application.Ex: Holdings will become increasingly important as a bartering tool to gain additional access benefits.Ex: Office automation have brought about a switch to a paperless office.Ex: These 'spuriously loyal' customers are not willing to churn just because of switching costs.Ex: Most libraries maintain a small cash float for the giving of change and, in addition, money/ is received in payment of fines.* a cambio = in
