The purpose of this paper is to investigate how a small company manages its information, primarily the organization of digital documents. The two dominating themes are classification and information politics, the former in the context of a corporate environment and the latter to help us to describe the situation at the company. The method used has involved observation of the company's current computer network structure and also interviews with six employees at different levels in various departments at the company. The result of our investigation has been the realization that, although logical structure is important when organizing documents in a digital environment, it is also necessary to have rules regarding its implementation..

Användarna av extern redovisning fokuserar på framtiden medan traditionell redovisning baseras på historiska data. Amerikanska undersökningar visar att analytiker efterfrågar mer icke-finansiell information för att kunna göra bättre prognoser. Företagens årsredovisningar fungerar idag som informationsbärare och är ett viktigt beslutsunderlag för analytiker. Syftet med uppsatsen är att beskriva de svenska förhållandena vad det gäller redovisad och efterfrågad icke-finansiell information. Genom att studera svenska årsredovisningar samt tillfråga analytiker hur de ställer sig till icke-finansiell information har vi besvarat följande frågor.

This Masters thesis investigates user education at academic libraries. The increased demand on students to keep themselves updated in the information society of today urges libraries to develop their user education, concerning both content and teaching strategies. The aim of this study is to examine user education at academic libraries, and the approach of librarians in their teaching.

Ambulansarbetet är ibland stressigt och som ambulanspersonal hanteras bland annat traumapatienter. Det kan upplevas svårt att finna tid till omvårdnaden kring patienten. En del av omvårdnaden är att informera patienten vad som händer för att de ska uppleva en delaktighet och trygghet i vården. I traumasituationer är det svårt att avgöra hur detaljerad informationen ska vara och hur mottaglig patienten är för information, även patientens medvetandegrad är avgörande. Syftet med studien var att beskriva vad ambulanssjuksköterskor anser om information och vilken information som gavs till traumapatienter.
