In Spain it is also called a carné, and all Spanish citizens have to carry one from the age of fourteen. The card is renewed every five or ten years at police stations, and must be shown to police upon demand. A similar document, the “Cédula (Nacional) de Identidad” is carried in Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Venezuela, Argentina and Chile. In 2006 Spain began introducing an electronic identity card, which has a microchip containing the holder's personal details in digitized form.* * *m document* * *documento nm: document* * *documento n document -

Ex: The extent of searchable elements will vary from one data base to another.Ex: As job anxiety scores increased, job satisfaction indices decreased.Ex: In particular series entries are useful for series where the series title indicates a particular subject scope, style of approach, level or audience.Ex: Overall, the library media specialists experienced stress in the mild to moderate range.Ex: Various scales of relevance ratings may be established.Ex: But documents with the following terms assigned would be rejected on the grounds that their combined weights did not exceed the pre-selected threshold.Ex: However, Cutter suggested that we should ignore on economic grounds both upward links (from narrower to broader subjects) and collateral (sideways) links from one term to another of equal rank.Ex: Until the mid nineteen hundreds, this community presented an almost feudal pattern of wealthy merchants and factory hands, with several gradations between these extremes.Ex: The project is concerned with the investigation of conditions of appointment for women librarians as well as the grades and salary scales assigned to library tasks.Ex: With the advent of both library on-line public access catalogue and end-user searching of on-line and CD-ROM data bases, the need for improved instruction in library use approaches a new plateau.Ex: However, amongst this stratum of the population, library users demonstrated greater residential stability.Ex: The author proposes a four tier planning framework for information technology, information systems and information
