Canadian development assistance is channeled through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), and over 200 non-governmental organizations. The CIDA contributions have emphasized technical assistance projects for the development of dairy production, beef production and small ruminants. Those projects are normally managed by Canadian universities or private contractors. The IDRC projects rarely include Canadian advisors, and while technical and administrative support is provided from IDRC's regional office and headquarters, management of the project remains the responsibility of the recipient. Among the notable achievements of the Canadian assistance programs are the setting up of various networks which allow for the better coordination of projects. The objectives of the Canadian assistance programs have been redefined in the light of experience gained to date and a better understanding of the needs of developing countries. These objectives will be addressed by greater emphasis on animal production systems; pasture and forage improvement; by-product utilization; and animal species such as sheep, goats, camelids and buffaloes.

Some of the better known products, such as Current Contents, UnCoverWeb, zetoc, etc., offer a current awareness service across several thousand journals and cover all major disciplines. Although such services are fairly up-to-date in their coverage, nonetheless e-mail table of content (e-toc) alerts received directly from publishers’ sites are often far more so, occasionally providing information in advance of publication. A further major advantage of registering to receive e-toc alerts directly from the publisher is the ability to click and go from the e-mail message straight to the full text of selected journal articles, wherever hypertext links are provided from the e-toc alert message. This ability to directly view a full text article of interest makes for a service that is becoming increasingly popular with researchers and scientists in biomedicine. In the article that follows, Steven Glover describes precisely how such publisher-based e-toc alert services have been promoted in a busy research institute environment, with the Library taking a lead in integrating them with the range of full text journals to which a subscription is available. With the model described here, the level of current awareness service provision is developed beyond that possible with a traditional paper-based approach. Furthermore, such a model is also capable of generating information that may be used by the Library in maintaining or expanding its existing journal subscription base. The benefits to the user are particularly highlighted below. References 1 Current Contents . <http://www.isinet.com/isi/products/>. Google Scholar 2 UnCoverWeb . <http://uncweb.carl.org/>.

This thesis explores the question of how witchcraft-related violence may be best addressed through the discipline of political science. This comparative analysis seeks to investigate the effectiveness of four actors mediation efforts: the state, religious organizations, NGOs and traditional authorities. Based on an extensive inter-disciplinary literature review and fieldwork conducted in Ghana and Cameroon, this thesis views witchcraft as a form of power and through this analysis presents two inter-related conclusions. The first conclusions argues that no actor is currently able to successfully address witchcraft-related violence or reduce the sense of spiritual insecurity which is associated with violence due to logical constraints. This is seen primarily in the inability of the state, many religions and NGOs to acknowledge the reality of witchcraft or address experiences of witchcraft which reflect the needs of those seeking redress. Where actors may share these experiences or reality, as in the case of traditional authorities, their ability is often seen as being limited by or in conflict with other actors. The second conclusion addresses this conflict by framing the logics of witchcraft and contemporary liberalism, seen in the state and NGO interventions, as a site of contention and debate; one which not only affects witchcraft-related violence in West Africa, but which also contributes to the construction of this phenomenon in academia and international discourse.

The second in a series of articles on the activities of the Information Sciences Division (ISD) of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC). Examines the widening scope of ISD projects in response to a broader client base, the increasing diversity of information technology and the greater sophistication and knowledge of Third World information workers. The generalized information management system MINISIS, developed at IDRC and distributed to many countries, is described briefly. Examples of projects indicate that ISD's support of informatics is aimed at providing assistance to developing countries' researchers, planners and decision makers, development practitioners and information professionals to acquire the skills for implementing and making use of diverse information tools from microcomputers to expert systems. Concludes that ISD's informatics programme is concerned not only with producing software for developing countries, but also with filling the need for knowledge to build an indigenous information technology capacity.
