“…Many Australian postgraduate critical care nursing course curricula utilize two publications as a basis to their curricula and to support student assessment: Position Statement on the Provision of Australian College of Critical Care Nurses (2006), and the Competency Standards for Specialist Critical Care Nurses (Australian College of Critical Care Nurses, 2002; Aitken et al ., 2006; Gill et al ., 2012). Health consumers' views were not sought in the development of either of these publications.…”

“…As in many tertiary health sectors globally, critical care nursing in Australia is one of the largest specialties, with nearly 40 000 nurses working in adult critical care settings (Australian Institute of Health and Wealthfare, 2011; Gill et al ., 2012). Australian critical care nursing workforce standards recommend that at least 50% of nurses practising in adult or paediatric intensive care units (ICU) should hold a specialist (postgraduate) critical care qualification (Australian College of Critical Care Nurses, 2003; College of Intensive Care Medicine of Australia and New Zealand, 2010; Australian Council on Healthcare Standards, 2011).…”

“…This may explain the higher ranking of pain and sedation, by the nonclinical group of nurses, possibly the influence of the nurse researchers. Other nurse researchers have started to work on staffing levels and education (26,27). The detailed statements and their priority listing of our study might motivate these nurse researchers to continue their work and provide in-depth information for future research.…”

“…Four out of the five consortia represented in the sample offered next generation OPACs/discovery tools in combination with their particular "classic" catalog [2]. In order not to count the same OPAC twice, subsequent instances of libraries with the A study of OPACs same consortial catalog (12 instances) were removed from the OPAC analysis (see Appendix D) [3]. Thus, those 17 libraries only yielded five OPACs to be analyzed.…”

AbstractPurpose -The study described in this paper aims to identify the progress made in the efforts to model current online public access catalogs (OPACs) after the next generation catalog (NGC) in academic libraries in the USA and Canada. Design/methodology/approach -A random sample of 260 colleges and universities was selected from Peterson's Guide to Four-Year Colleges 2009, an estimated 10 percent of the total population of 2,560 listed academic institutions. A checklist of 12 features of the NGC was used to evaluate the OPACs of the 260 libraries in the sample. The authors took as the OPAC that which the library linked to as its "catalog," even though some might be more properly considered "discovery tools" or "discovery layers." Some libraries used more than one OPAC interface simultaneously; in this case, each OPAC was analyzed separately. In the case of several institutions using the same consortial OPAC, only the first instance of the OPAC was analyzed. About 15 percent of the institutions (n ¼ 40) in the sample either did not have web sites or did not provide access to their online catalogs. In all, a total of 233 unique instances of OPACs were analyzed. Data were collected from September 2009 through July 2010. The findings can be extrapolated to the population at the 95 percent confidence level with a confidence interval of^3. Findings -While bits and pieces of the next generation catalog are steadily working themselves into the current catalog, academic libraries still have a long way to go. About 16 percent of the OPACs in the sample did not show any advanced features of the NGC. More than half of the libraries (61 percent) had only one to five advanced features in their OPACs. Many of those with six or more NGC features were discovery tools. Only 3 percent of the OPACs in the sample (n ¼ 8) demonstrated seven to ten out of the 12 functionalities of the NGC, and they were instances either of WorldCat Local or Summon. The weak areas were federated searching, relevance based on circulation statistics, and recommendations...
