Describes the use made of the interlending services in a country “with a high level of political conflict and national diversity”. Examines areas of science and politics in the former Yugoslavia, journal collections, automation and costs. Concludes that standardisation at the highest level is required and that library co‐operation in the former Yugoslavia can “rise above the problems caused by the hostilities in the political environment”.

Malaysia is still in the process of reorganising and restructuring disaster management policy, learning from national and international experiences. Argument about the current situation of emergency management and housing in Malaysia can be used by the decision makers, authorities and NGOs to develop strategies and actions that include awareness raising and capacity building for enhancing enforcement of current legislation.

The work concentrated mostly on academic reports of original investigations rather than reviews. The conclusions in this paper are generalizations based on the authors' interpretation of those original reports.

Malaysia is not a developed country and also not a developing country but is more in the middle, and follows any direction from the international arena to national situation. Malaysia has a developed country approach in disaster management policy but with the implementation capacity of a developing country. This paper argues that providing post‐disaster housing must accommodate requirements in the national disaster management policy and parallel with the needs from international concern to the rights of disaster victims.

The outcomes from this discussion might give insights into designing and planning the national policy and disaster management framework by restructuring and reorganising the present National Disaster Management Mechanism in terms of enhancing the coordination of responsibility between and within government bodies in the National Disaster Management Mechanism.

Thick film symmetrical LC cells with two pairs of terminations were printed on alumina using PdAg paste and crossover dielectric. Planar inductors such as meander, spiral, bispiral, and solenoid in plane were distributed over planar capacitors such as sandwich, interdigitated and segmented. Attenu‐ation and Smith charts of symmetrical EMI LC cells were measured on network analyzer in the range of 1 MHz to 3 GHz. Two or three main LC cells were joined in series to sum attenuation. The obtained results were compared mutually, at first, and than with the cubic (chip) EMI LC filters. The obtained EMI noise suppression was similar, but the filter band of thick film LC cells was much wider.
