• Patrons Embrace Convenience of Personal Readers

Pam Vincent just got back from a vacation in San Francisco, and the Henderson County (Ky.) Public Library assistant director took plenty of reading material for her long journey. But rather than lug books around, Vincent instead carried her e- reader, which can house multiple titles in one small device. It was perfect for the airplane ride, she said.

• Alcohol Advertising On Billboards, Transit Shelters, and Bus Benches in Inner-City Neighborhoods

We describe the structure, content, and neighborhood characteristics of outdoor alcohol advertisements (n=246) in innercity neighborhoods in ten U.S. cities from 2003 to 2005. We conducted observations of alcohol advertisements on billboards, transit shelters, and bus benches in all ten cities to describe the structure and content of outdoor alcohol advertising. We also created geo-spatial maps to describe the neighborhood characteristics where alcohol billboards were located in San Francisco, CA and Atlanta, GA. Alcohol advertisements were more common on billboards than transit shelters or bus benches, usually featured beer products, emphasized product quality, had a discreet or moderate (vs. blatant) visual impact, and rarely used human models. Outdoor advertisements on transit shelte...
