ideas and information, for this reason most of them are used and a panoply of tolls are necessary in order to locate specific items.Ex: Businesses are using all of the new communicating technological developments to increase their command over the information they need.Ex: Public libraries specifically face enormous problems of funding and governance.Ex: The library has proven to be an imperfect panacea, and the librarian has suffered a definite loss of mastery.Ex: The article 'The information highway: on ramps, checkpoints, speed bumps and tollbooths' offers a comprehensive snapshot of the current policy and practices regarding the dissemination of government information in electronic form.Ex: It is therefore often hard to escape the grip of the official phraseology for fear that, in doing so, the meaning of the material will be altered or lost.Ex: Tracking of personal information attached to electronic text supplied by publishers is a potential violator of user privacy.Ex: What is needed is for the director to broaden her span of control by eliminating the position of assistant director.Ex: The article has the title ' Policing fraud and deceit: the legal aspects of misconduct in scientific enquiry'.Ex: Previous policies allowed professional interaction but recent tightening has made that more difficult.Ex: The British in Malaya used education as a divisive factor to prolong their rule, while the Americans in the Philippines adopted a 'Philippines for the Filipinos' policy = Los británicos en Malaya usaron la educación como un factor divisorio para prolongar su dominio, mientras los americanos en las Filipinas adoptaron una política de "Las Filipinas para los filipinos".Ex: The ETEL system guarantees relevance of the information through moderation by a newspaper editor.Ex: Criminal record checks have been an accepted form of pre-employment vetting for those with access to children for some years.* activar un mecanismo de control =
