- Abstract
From 1995-1998, 12 of the 79 organizations funded by Canada's National Literacy Secretariat (NLS) conducted approximately 40 workplace literacy pilot projects across Canada. Those projects were reviewed to determine their effectiveness in increasing the number and quality of Canadian workplace literacy programs. Information for the review was collected from the following sources: review of pertinent materials available through the NLS; conversations with practitioners involved in workplace pilot projects and provincial government representatives; and interviews with representatives of 4 of the 12 organizations (an employer association, federation of labor, the Prairie Regional Training Consortium, and an industrial sector training council). The pilot projects tended to have three fields of activity: learning activities; short-term organizational change strategies; and long-term structural workplace change. The pilots have introduced literacy into a range of new industries and workplaces; however, only a small number of workplaces have created foundations for ongoing programs. Recommendations emerging from the review included calls for the NLS to fund more innovative workplace learning strategies and extend the time and financial resources for pilots to support more effective organizational change activities. A French translation is included. (Appended is information about how the review was conducted.) (MN)

- Abstract
During the last 5-10 years, a number of countries have introduced methods and systems for identifying, validating, and recognizing prior and nonformal learning that can be viewed as tools for improving the transparency and transfer of skills. In most cases, they have been operational for a comparatively short time, which makes it difficult to decide whether expectations regarding them are justified. Some of the most important initiatives and innovations connected with the identification and validation of prior and nonformal learning include examples from Australia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, and United Kingdom. The French, Australian, Irish, and British methodologies are based on related principles, introducing different versions of portfolios, dossiers, or passports. Finland, Germany, and Japan have been reluctant to introduce the portfolio method. In spite of similarities in design, countries tend to apply the methodologies in different ways. This difference may be seen as a difference between centralized and decentralized systems. Initiatives and ideas on a European level are the Individual Portfolio Project and the Personal Skills Card and the European Skills Accreditations system. Some basic questions related to the legitimacy of the new methods and systems deal with the institutional basis, flexibility versus fragmentation, transparency and visibility, and transfer. (German, English, and French versions appear in side-by-side columns. Appendixes contain 27 references and 18 notes.) (YLB)

8. Intellectual Property and Aboriginal People: A Working Paper = Propriete intellectuelle et Autochtones: Document de travail.
- Author

Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, Ottawa (Ontario)., Brascoupe, Simon, and Endemann, Karin
- Abstract
Written in English and French, this paper outlines current Canadian intellectual property legislation as it relates to Aboriginal people in Canada, and provides a general review of the implications and limitations of this legislation for protecting the traditional knowledge of Aboriginal people. An initial discussion of Aboriginal perspectives highlights the difference between sacred traditional knowledge, products, and services associated with traditional lifestyles of Aboriginal people, and innovations or new creations of an individual or an Aboriginal company. Not all traditional knowledge is considered to be intellectual property under Canadian law, therefore a web of strategies is suggested to better protect and control traditional Aboriginal knowledge. These strategies include community guidelines for researchers and businesses wanting access to traditional knowledge, codes of conduct, statutory options, and legal agreements and contracts. A section on intellectual property protection of Indigenous knowledge describes ownership, nature of rights, criteria for protection, scope of protection, duration, costs, enforcement, and international protection. A section on intellectual property rules applicable to Aboriginal contexts discusses copyrights, neighboring rights, industrial designs, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, plant breeders' rights, integrated circuit topographies, and licensing intellectual property. The conclusion points out the need for new techniques and laws that are more appropriate for protecting Aboriginal traditional knowledge and recommends educating non-Aboriginals to increase respect and understanding for Aboriginal traditional knowledge. Information sources presented include 17 federal, international, general, and Aboriginal Internet sources; 11 organizations; and 20 references. (TD)

This report provides an overview of child care in rural areas of Ontario. Chapter 1 outlines the paper's purpose, defining "child care" and "rural." It discusses the nature of rural Ontario in the 1990s and the need for child care in rural areas. Also, implications for child care provision in a rural context are highlighted. Chapter 2 reviews child care in Ontario with regard to the roles of different levels of government. Issues of child care availability, affordability, and quality are discussed, along with child care reform initiatives. Chapter 3 looks at rural child care in Ontario in terms of the characteristics of rural communities and characteristics of successful child care programs. Chapters 4 through 6 focus on rural center-based child care, regulated home child care, and the provision of care in the child's own home, including the special challenges and issues related to each setting. Chapter 7 considers resource centers, school-age care, and care for children with special needs. Finally, chapter 8 highlights programs in Alberta, Manitoba, Prince Edward Island, and Quebec that specifically target the needs of rural families. A list of key informants, demographic information, and information on the availability and affordability of child care in Ontario are topics covered in the four Appendices.

Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada, Ottawa (Ontario).
- Abstract
The challenges and opportunities presented by fiscal constraint, new technologies and an information "explosion" require that universities and their libraries develop a system by which scholars and students can access information when it is needed. This discussion paper in English and French, is the first of a series of papers intended to raise awareness of important issues in academic libraries' support of scholarship in Canadian universities, to describe initiatives which address these issues, and to propose strategies for dealing with them. The ability of Canadian academic libraries to provide access to scholarly information is increasingly constrained by the worldwide proliferation and high cost of scholarly publications and the limitations of Canadian copyright legislation and copyright practices. This has a significant impact on the role of research within the academic community and on university promotion and tenure practices. Any new system that seeks to replace the current paper-based scholarly communication system will be expected to: restore scholar centricity; be network-based; be able to support all formats; protect the copyright interests of both scholars and institutions; be responsive to the values of peer review; base prices on actual costs; be timely; and provide the tools to create, convert, and organize the available information. A number of projects are underway among the academic community and by the federal government that address these needs. Appendices provide a list of task force representatives, descriptions of the roles of the National Library of Canada and the Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information of the National Research Council of Canada, and a discussion of academic library studies in the United States and the United Kingdom. Suggested readings, Internet and UseNet newsgroups and a listserver are also provided. (AEF)

European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training, Thessaloniki (Greece)., Bjornavold, Jens, and Sellin, Burkart
- Abstract
The European Union's most important challenge is to establish permanent, reliable methodologies and systems that support transparency and recognition of vocational qualifications. The concept of "transparency of qualifications" has replaced "recognition" and "comparability.""Transparency" points to the need to make national qualifications more visible and understandable to outsiders; the introduction of common standards is an unnecessary implication. In the 4 decades since the establishment of the European Community, the problems of recognition and transparency of vocational qualifications have been addressed in various ways. Three distinct stages have been identified: harmonization of vocational education and training (1957-73); approximation of vocational training levels (1974-92); and convergence of vocational training (1992-present). A number of projects with partners from several countries have been set up through the Leonardo da Vinci program to address core elements of the transparency problem. Other initiatives have addressed the problem of recognition and comparison of nonformal skills. Unfortunately, the exchange of information is too weak, interpretation too poor, and mechanisms supporting exchange of information and interpretation insufficiently developed. Two complementary strategies to increase transparency and mutual trust have been suggested: a European Qualifications' Transparency Network and a general system of binding agreements among the European countries.

Core Literacy, Kitchener (Ontario)., Duff-McCracken, Donald, and Fretz, Barbara
- Abstract
This manual is designed as a resource for involving learners in literacy programs. Although the report is written at a high reading level, highlights for each section that are written in clear language are found at the beginning of the manual. Section 1 introduces the topic of learner involvement; it also describes the benefits of learner involvement as listed by staff, learners, and board members and discusses the kinds of activities in which learners are involved. The rest of the section contains strategies for getting learners involved. They are divided into two categories. Setting the foundation includes these topics: learner empowerment, challenging confidentiality, building on learners' experiences, using the community to one's favor, supporting learners, and treating learners as equals. Building the house covers these areas: learners networking with each other, advocacy/outreach, working on real tasks that affect everyone, improving communication channels, providing ongoing program support, and adopting learner-friendly structures. Section 2 highlights specific barriers and techniques for overcoming them. These types of barriers are addressed: empowerment, program support for learners, community support for learners, confidentiality, communication, learner networks (learners groups and learners conferences), and changing the way that decisions are made. Eleven references are listed. Two appendixes include the methodology and guidelines for how to chair a meeting. A French language version is provided. (YLB)

- Abstract
Based on a directive from the National Advisory Board of Canada, this paper provides a set of definitions and guidelines which Canadian libraries may choose to use in negotiating their contracts with database suppliers, vendors, and other information and bibliographic services. The report is intended to: (1) provide a basis for understanding and discussing legal aspects of the network; (2) assist network participants in understanding and dealing with the principal forms of contract that will exist in the emerging network; and (3) foster greater standardization of the forms and terminology employed in the principal types of network contracts. Following an overview in section 1, section 2 provides a contractual model illustrating library and information network contractual relationships. Section 3 presents guidelines relating to the contents of contracts, and section 4 contains conclusions and recommendations. A quick reference checklist of contract subject headings in recommended sequence, selected terms and definitions, two illustrative model contracts, a list of references, and a selective bibliography are appended. Text is presented in both English and French. (THC)

- Abstract
The six papers compiled here cover topics related to government publications and bibliography. In "The Impact of the Use of New Technology in Government Publishing on Libraries," Bernadine E. Abbott Hoduski discusses the impact of the use of new technology by government publishers on the dissemination of government information to libraries, particularly depository libraries. In "L'impact des nouvelles technologies sur les publications officielles" (The Impact of New Technologies on Official Publications), Pierre Pelou points out that the quality of information services is determined not by the use of new technologies, but by the ways in which the librarian utilizes them to meet the information needs of users. In "Government Publications and the Concept of Rarity," Richard Landon considers the concept of rarity in terms of government publications and provides several examples of the scope of rare government publications. In "Survey of Bibliographic Services of International Intergovernmental Organizations: A Progress Report," Sylvie Jacque provides a progress report on a project which is updating an inventory of major bibliographic sources of intergovernmental organizations and conducting a survey of such materials in depository libraries. In "The International Bibliography: A Review," Nellie S. C. Moffitt examines the development of the "International Bibliography," a bibliographic quarterly for intergovernmental publications. In "Bibliographic Control, Use, and Reference Service for United Nations Publications in an Academic Library," Alfred Kagan discusses problems affecting access to United Nations documents. (MES)

- Abstract
Papers that address implications of linguistic theory for applied linguistics are presented. In "Some Semantic Properties of Some Conjunctions," W. Abraham is concerned with the function of "but" and its translation equivalents in German and other languages. In "Is It Possible and Necessary to Write Text Grammars?," T. P. Krzeszowski examines the theoretical status of text-grammars and the use of sentence connectives. In "Esquisse d'une theorie de 'Do'" (Outline of a Theory of 'Do'), H. Adamczewski examines the anaphoric function of the verb "do" in English texts, and its use as a marker of modality or some other semantic qualification. In "Notes sur l'expression verbale de l'assentiment et de la confirmation en anglais" (Notes on the Verbal Expression of Assent and Confirmation in English), C. Heddesheimer considers research conducted on the speech acts of assent and confirmation. In "Some Metalinguistic Problems in Communicative Language Learning," C. N. Candlin considers research conducted on the rhetorical properties of discourse between doctor and patient. In "Interpretive Procedures and the Importance of Poetry," H. G. Widdowson examines the problem of teaching discourse, concentrating on the problems of interpretation. In "Interpretive Procedures: Seeing, Reading, and Understanding Discourse," S. P. Corder compares the interpretation of discourse with visual perception and the interpretation of pictures. In "Error Analysis and Pedagogical Ordering," A. Valdman describes the use of the results of a systematic error analysis to devise a language teaching syllabus. In "De la necessite de fonder l'enseignement de langues secondes sur l'etude de la langue maternelle" (On the Necessity of Basing Instruction of Second Languages on the Study of the Mother Tongue), E. Roulet considers metalinguistic knowledge development in the learner. (SW)

- Abstract
Because of data ownership questions raised by the interchange and sharing of machine readable bibliographic data, this paper was prepared for the Bibliographic and Communications Network Committee of the National Library Advisory Board. Background information and definitions are followed by a review of the legal aspects relating to property and contract law. The treatment of ownership of machine-readable bibliographic data and databases in 22 agreements is then examined, including library processing center agreements, information retrieval center agreements, and bilateral agreements for the international exchange of MARC records. Relevant ongoing and recent work is surveyed concerning bibliographic records in machine-readable form and copyright law. Outstanding issues in network agreements related to data ownership are reviewed and considered in host/host user agreements and database supplier/host organization agreements. Copyright law revision issues are also noted. Twenty-six references are listed, and appendices provide the recommended text for a bilateral agreement for the international exchange of MARC records via tape format between national bibliographic agencies, and EURONET guidelines for cooperation between database suppliers and host organizations.
