Title A name given to the resource The usage of Electronic Databases in Academic Libraries in Ghana. The Experience of Ghana Communication Technology University Library (GCTUL) Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Samuel Ameyaw, Frempong-Kore Afua Description An account of the resource This study examines the use of electronic databases (e-databases) by faculty members at the Ghana Communication Technology University Library (GCTUL). The study used a descriptive research method. Copies of the questionnaire were used for the data collection. Due to the manageable population, no sampling method was used in this study. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM-SPSS 21.0) was used for data analysis. The results showed that most faculty members were aware of the availability of databases in the library. Additionally, the findings established that Emerald, as well as Taylor and Francis, were ranked highly in terms of availability and accessibility. The study identified problems such as difficulty in downloading information as well as poor internet connectivity. Based on the results, the study recommended that library management should address all the challenges that users encounter as soon as possible. This result should be a timely and relevant commodity for policymakers and stakeholders in private and public academic libraries.

Title A name given to the resource The use of bauxite as an arsenic filter Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource SA Ndur, H Osei, CE Abbey, Theophilus Joe-Asare Description An account of the resource Arsenic (As) has the potential to negatively affect soils and groundwater quality, and cause several public health challenges. It is usually concentrated and released during metal mining of ores that contains arsenic-bearing minerals. Remediation strategies are in place to avoid pollution. In this study, bauxite from Awaso, Ghana, was characterised, and its ability to sequester As was tested under varying conditions of temperature, Eh and pH. The study showed that the best particle size in the range utilised was 80% passing 2 mm as it allowed easy percolation, and As removal was about 95%. The reaction is a favourable pseudo-second order reaction that is spontaneous and thermodynamically stable and compares well with the Langmuir Sorption Isotherm. About 80% sorption was achieved within 20 minutes of contact with low desorption rate of less than 1.8%. The study thus concludes that bauxite is a good filter for arsenic.

It was recommended that faculty give reading assignments that will require students to consult journals and other resources in the library, not just for examination purposes. The library should also embark on aggressive awareness creation on regular basis to showcase the various resources available in the library.

Title A name given to the resource THE VALUATION OF STUDENT ENTREPRENEURS AND THEIR BUSINESS PLANS USING FACTOR ANALYSIS Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Kong Yusheng, Chosniel Elikem Ocloo, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Patrick Obeng Danso Description An account of the resource This work analyzes investor assessment of students’ business plan, with the hope of boosting their confidence level as they venture into business. The main goal of this study is to prove if investor support programs can assist students to get requisite know-how in becoming entrepreneurs, such that they could be great business tycoons after school. Conscientiousness or due diligence in entrepreneurship could be an approach of a modernday investor to increase the confidence level of entrepreneurs being groomed in universities by identifying entrepreneurial skills in students and mentoring them. This forms a part of the investors’ strategy to make use of internal resources and skills, as well as opportunities and risks created by its external environment in venturing into a business. The entrepreneur is usually seen as an innovator, a source of new ideas, resources and business dealings. Identifying business opportunities, self-confidence and seed capital were found to be the most important attributes in motivating students to start a new venture. The authors of this study performed this kind of research using Factor Analysis.

Title A name given to the resource The viability of E-textbooks in developing countries: Ghanaian university students' perceptions Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource As higher education institutions the world over are gradually transitioning to e-textbooks, this study explored Ghanaian undergraduate students’ awareness, experiences and perceptions of e-books, particularly with regard to their acceptance of e-textbooks as eventual replacements of physical textbooks. A total of 253 undergraduate students at a private university in Ghana participated in the study by responding to paper-based questionnaires administered over a four-week period. Analysing data with simple descriptive statistics and content analysis, the findings reveal that students generally have a fair idea of what e-books are, and also acknowledge the potential benefits of e-textbooks. However, a significant number do not presently use e-books. On the whole, students are strongly averse to using e-books and other Internet-based electronic resources in place of physical books for academic purposes.

Title A name given to the resource The Youth And Rituals In Post-Conflict Rebuilding: The Psychosocial Dimension Of Post-Conflict Rebuilding In The Kpandai District In Contemporary Times Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Cletus Kwaku Mbowura, Sulemana Iddrisu, Gbensuglo Alidu Bukari Description An account of the resource Northern Ghana has gone through decades of inter-ethnic and intra-ethnic conflicts since the 1980s. The present-day Kpandai District was ravaged by an inter-ethnic conflict in 1991/1992, between the Nawuri/Nchumuru and the Gonja, over allodial rights. In both the physical confrontations and rebuilding processes, the youth and rituals played critical roles. However, there is hardly any systematic analysis of the role of the youth and rituals in the post-conflict rebuilding scheme in the Kpandai District. This paper analyzes the roles played by traditional rituals and the Nawuri youth (Nawuri Professionals’ Association, NPA) in post-conflict rebuilding schemes in Kpandai. Using the traditional historical method of reconstructing a narrative from primary and secondary sources, this paper examines the psychosocial dimension and underlines the place of local resources in post-conflict rebuilding in the Kpandai District in the Northern Region of Ghana. It uses the Nawuri Professionals’ Association (NPA)–a youth group of the Nawuri–as a case study. The paper argues that the youth and the use of rituals as psychosocial factors serve as effective variables for post-conflict rebuilding of Nawuri society in the Kpandai District.
