Ex: For example, when setting up the format for records in a data base, the user can draw a form on the screen, complete with headings for each field, and then, the data is entered into the form.

Ex: These headings, therefore, in addition to exhibiting a bias in favor of the majority, actively hinder access.

Ex: The reputation of the information and its authority will be more exposed to examination.

Ex: Other catalogues and bibliographies only feature added entries under title where it is deemed that the author main entry heading is not likely to be obvious to the users.

Ex: The perfect librarian may be defined as one who produces the information a reader requires as soon as the reader asks for it.

Ex: This list indicates the dates the reports were tabled and any further action take.

Ex: Most publications are probably free distribution material and whilst that does not absolve the publishers from the obligation of legal deposit it is probable that many local authorities do not submit their materials.

Ex: Here is an institution which knows, neither rank nor wealth within its walls, which stops the ignorant peer or the ignorant monarch at its threshold, and declines to unveil to him its treasures, or to waste time upon him, and yet welcomes the workman according to his knowledge or thirst for knowledge.

Ex: Officially known as SOLEX, this exhibition showcases mainly IT based products for the legal profession.

Ex: The book's date label is stamped in the usual way, and the reader must surrender one token for each book he is borrowing.

Ex: There should be plenty of space to lay out all the books attractively and for people to move about without feeling too crowded.

Ex: I don't need to tell those of you from higher education institutions how course management systems are starting to really proliferate and roll out in higher education.
