Accepting the necessity for maintaining the objectives of the existing circulation system, the computer-based system could be designed by the system analyst and librarians to gain a variety of improvements in the maintenance, accessibility of circulation records and more meaningful statistical records. If the terminal can be operated on-line, then this circulation data is transmitted directly to the computer, where it may update to the circulation file immediately or alternatively be kept in direct access file for updating in batch mode. on-line system in the circulation operations is "data-collection system" and "Bar-coded label system" Bar-coded label system is simple, quick, and error-free input of data. Attached to CRT terminal is a "light pen" which is hand held and will read a bar-coded label as the pen is passed over the labels (one affixed to the book itself, other carried on the borrower cards). Instantaneously the data concerning transaction is stored in the central mini-computer. It is useful, economical for us to co-operate many libraries in Korea and design borrower's ID code, book no., classification code in the Bar-coded label system by the members of the computer center and the library staff at every stage. As for book loan, the borrowers ID code, book number and classification code are scanned by the bar-code scanner or light pen and the computer decides whether to loan and store the data. The visual display unit shows the present status of a borrowers borrowing and decides whether borrower can borrow.

In this short article, oceanic processes that could have strong effect on the climate have been explained while focusing on the oceanic thermohaline circulation (THC). First, the structure of THC is explained using a simple scaling law. Then, the thermohaline catastrophe, which is believed to be a cause of a rapid climate changes observed in paleoclimate records, and interdecadal variations in THC are explained. The interactions between the oceans and $CO_2$ are also mentioned briefly.

With this purpose, circulation statistics were extracted from 90,420 cases of circulation records in A library for recent 3 years (from 2012 to 2014). Specifically, circulation data categorized according to status and subject, loan data of most popular books and use data of inter-library loan service were collected and analyzed. Subject groups of this study are undergraduate students, graduate students and incumbent hospital employees including faculty members, training members and nondoctor members. For the result, medical library users intensively lent materials of Technology (Applied Sciences), Literature and Social science areas. Especially, the demand of the materials of literature was higher than the demand of the other subject areas compared in the base of collection development.

This is a survey of the circulation system for students in college & university libraries in Korea. The survey used a questionnaire with 14 questions on 6 items concerning the various aspects of the circulation system in 82 libraries responded among 85 college & university libraries as of 1981. The survey results discovered many problems needing improvement.

It is desirable that the number of a staff in charge of circulation works places one person per average 75-85 books borrowed a day, when calculating an adequate number of the staff on the basis of the correlation between books borrowed a day and number of the staff. 3. 59.8% of the libraries does not have reserved book system, but it is desirable to take it for increasing reliability about the circulation services. 4. More than half of the libraries takes a method of a public announcement on a notice-board for claims of overdue books, but it is desirable to send a claim notice to the individual in viewpoint of keeping their privacies. 5. More than half of the libraries to take the open access system uses a call slip, but it is desirable not to use it in viewpoint of simplicity and economical efficiency of the charging system, because of demanding the unnecessary records. 6. Most of libraries shows many problems of the charging system, especially in factors of the records and filing system, but it is desirable to improve it on the basis of 4 basic factors of the charging system, that is, simplicity, economical efficiency, promptitude and accuracy.

It has become commonplace to use web-based business process systems in a variety of fields, and electronic litigation is not an exception. In electronic procedures where court records are at the core of the system, the electronic document architecture should be designed in a way that electronic documents are safely circulated and utilized on the web with a consideration of the authentication of records, particularity of cases and document security such as prevention of forgery or falsification. Based on a study of electronic formats suitable for court records, the Extensible Markup Language (XMP) for management of special case information and security requirements for circulation of electronic documents, this paper suggests an adequate architecture for electronic documents designed for electronic litigation involving constitutional matters and looks into cases where such architectures are applied. The studies in this paper will serve as a useful reference for those planning to realize web-based business process that enables exchanges of electronic documents.
