In the last five years, the library of Lanaudière's Centre intégré de santé et de services sociaux embarked on systematizing and offering its services online in order to meet the new needs of the organization. The information monitoring services offered was reviewed in its entirety in order to reflect the new realities. From specialized alerts, information monitoring has become thematic. The processes, almost entirely performed manually, have been revamped and automated to alleviate the time and resources constraints. Kentika Press has been the chosen tool to log the RSS feeds and to create monitoring newsletters. More users can now benefit from the information monitoring alerts and the primary evaluations of the project are positive.

AbstractAmplification: a Complex Phenomenon – Research on amplification lies within the scope of a fairly new trend in translatology, corpus-based studies. The aim of this study is to test assertions to the effect that the length of a text always increases in the translating process whatever the languages in use and that the increase can only be attributable to the translator. A corpus of texts containing more than 61,000 words was analyzed. Definitions of concepts, the amplification coefficient for texts in physics, history, and economy, and the relation between amplification produced by the translator's free choices and the amplification caused by differences among linguistic codes are discussed. Preliminary results of some of the analyses are also presented.

AbstractThis article reveals the compositional process for Elvio Cipollone's concerto for basset horn and electronics, a work performed at Ircam's 2005-2006 Cursus de Composition et d'Informatique Musicale. Using the Ircam studios as an observation ground, this study gave rise to observations, interviews, and recordings that enabled the gathering of information about the genesis of the work. The influence of the social environment is set out with the help of musical assistant Mikhaïl Malt and performer Alain Billard, but it is principally the technical aspects of the work that are discussed here. Following the production of this mixed work reveals how the composer may make use of tools conceived for a larger community of composers, researchers, and musicologists, in order to draw out and define his own personal ideas, and later create his work. Despite the obstacles encountered during the process, the constant need to adapt the tools to specific aesthetic and stylistic positions – here with particular regard to the blending of instrumental and electronic music – enabled the creation of a mixed work for highly contemporary electronic sonorities all the while remaining faithful to the composer's musical imagination, steeped in the possibilities of instrumental timbres.
