Library computerization projects in university libraries: A case study of Nimbe Adedipe library, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta and Keneth Dike Library, university of Ibadan
Library computerization projects at Nimbe Adedipe library, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta and Keneth- Dike Library, university of Ibadan were evaluated. The total population of the respondents was 331 which include two university librarians, twenty-two library staff and two hundred users. The data collection instruments used for this study were a questionnaire and interview. The instruments were structured to identify important measurable variables associated with the provision and utilization of library computerized services. Out of 200 copies of questionnaire administered to the users, only one hundred and ninety two were completed and used for the study. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics involving tables and simple percentages. Based on the questionnaire survey of the library staff and the interview granted by university librarians, the information technology resources in the university libraries were inadequate for successful implementation of the library computerization project, however, computerized services such as CD-ROM services, internet search online journal subscription proved by the libraries have tremendous impacts on the organization, management and dissemination of information. There was a low number of satisfied users which was an indication that much remain to be done to fully grow the automated information services profiles in the university libraries.

Management of non-muscle infiltrating bladder tumors: update 2014
Bladder cancer is the second urogenital cancer; smoking represents the main risk factor for its occurrence. Urothelial bladder tumors without muscle infiltration are a group of tumors treated with conservative endoscopic resection, often associated with adjuvant instillations of chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The high risk of recurrence leads to a systematic monitoring. Cystoscopy represents the standard of monitoring. Prognosis of this tumor group is heterogeneous. The risk of progression to invasive cancer is highly variable and potentially lethal. Stage and tumor grade are well recognized as prognostic factors. Cystectomy may be considered in high-risk tumors, in case of failure of conservative treatment. The purpose of this article is to analyse through a literature synthesis, prinicipal topics concerning diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of non-infiltrating bladder tumors.

Mastoid process - A tool for sex determination- A morphometric study in north Indian population
The mastoid region is favourable for sex determination, as it is the most protected region and resistant to damage due to its anatomical position at the base of the skull. The skull is traditionally considered to be the best skeletal indicator of ancestry and the second best indicator of sex next to the pelvis. The objective of this study is to verify the efficacy of a new method for determination of sex of fragmentary human skeletal remains in the native state of U.P., India. Knowledge of sex estimation through mastoid process is important for Anatomist, physical and forensic anthropologists.

Microstructure and Optical Properties of Undoped and Ni-Doped ZnS Nanocrystalllites
Wet Chemical Synthesis method was used to synthesis Ni doped ZnS and undoped ZnS. The as-prepared products were characterized using XRD, FE-SEM, UV-VIS and PL analysis. The crystal structures, morphologies and optical properties of as-prepared samples along with the particle size, micro strain and dislocation density have been investigated. The results exhibit a crystalline hexagonal structure in particles, rod shape size about 2nm and optical bandgap of 5.56 ev.
