                <text>This study seeks to analyse the controversial issues about coverage of salarygate by the print media in Zimbabwe by The Herald, and the roles&#13;
that the media play in curbing the problem. Both quantitative and qualitative data approaches were used to analyse the roles that media play&#13;
and to analyse the frequency of coverage of corruption issues. Interviews and content analysis were used as research instruments. Among the&#13;
findings of the study were that the war against corruption cannot be won without the involvement of media. It was also found o ut that the stories&#13;
lacked legal analysis of the salarygate. That the media plays a crucial role in creating awareness as well as in putting the government in check&#13;
and pressuring it to prosecute cases that were reported. The study recommended that there was need to enhance the freedom of the press to&#13;
protect journalists through the law, as well as to ensure more effective and objective reporting of corruption stories and other stories of human&#13;
interest.</text>

                <text>If some ideas, decisions and policies are not advocated and lobbed for, they would remain unknown&#13;
to implementers and to the general public. It is imperative to advocate and lobby for different information&#13;
policies in order for those in power to see the value and reasons for the formulation and implementation of the&#13;
information policies. Probably it is lack of awareness that is not bringing those policy changes. This article&#13;
explores information policy advocacy and lobbying as well as distinguishing information policy advocacy from&#13;
lobbying. Some reasons for information policy advocacy failure are given and some ways of making&#13;
information policy advocacy a success are established</text>

                <text>Zimbabwe is one of the developing countries striving to reach a middle economy status by year 2030. In its bid to achieve this vision, it has adopted an electronic government strategy (e-government strategy) &#13;
where government business is done electronically. An e-government strategy is a plan for e-government systems and their supporting infrastructure, which maximises the ability of government to achieve its &#13;
objective of Vision 2030. An e-government strategy must give direction where the government is going, its goals, vision, mission, and some implementation guidelines. In order to reach this objective, the &#13;
government has to become more accountable and transparent on its journey to Vision 2030, and one of its key drivers is proper records and archives management. Properly managed electronic government &#13;
records bring about accountability, transparency, and good governance.</text>

                <text>The advent of electronic resources in university circles towards the end of the 20th century ushered a novel and fresh landmark for library patrons, as such resources offered timely and current sources of information. The Zimbabwe Open University Library also embraced such an innovation by providing varied electronic resources to its patrons. Information scholars within the university were, thus, expected to take a leading role in accessing and using such resources as it is within their scope and domain of study. However, contrary to such anticipation, their access and usage is low, disappointing, and fragmented. Therefore, the premise of this study was to investigate the reasons behind such low usage of electronic resources by these students through a case of the Zimbabwe Open University Midlands Regional Campus Library. Using the qualitative methodology, the study employed a multimethod approach. Expert and captive sampling techniques were used to select library staff members and students respectively. The study found that students in the Department of Library and Information Science mostly preferred the use of Google, the university modules, and social media platform as the major information sources. The study found that electronic resources offered through the library’s website were one of the list preferred information sources because of varied reasons, which included the website not opening, download delays, power outages in the library, digital illiteracy, information overload, complicated user interface and logging challenges. As a way forward, there are several ways of enhancing the usage of such resources, which include increasing the library’ bandwidth, regular update of the website, installation of uninterrupted power supply (UPS), provision of further information literacy training and advertising the electronic resources by the library.</text>
