    Abstract
    Through a literature review, summarizes some characteroistics of multiethnis grouos in the information seeking process. Barriers to effective communication in libraries include language, conceptual awareness of library services, and philosophy of education. among ethnis groups, informal social networks and gatekeepers play a crucial role in seeking information. Suggests guidelines to achieve effective communication with users for whom English is a second language. Also makes recommendations for meeting the goals of diversity in reference service. Important topics discussed are: effective communication, special programme developement, needs assessments and outreach, and training and recruitment

    Abstract
    Power dynamics influence every aspect of scientific collaboration. Team power dynamics can be measured by team power level and team power hierarchy. Team power level is conceptualized as the average level of the possession of resources, expertise, or decision-making authorities of a team. Team power hierarchy represents the vertical differences of the possessions of resources in a team. In Science of Science, few studies have looked at scientific collaboration from the perspective of team power dynamics. This research examines how team power dynamics affect team impact to fill the research gap. In this research, all coauthors of one publication are treated as one team. Team power level and team power hierarchy of one team are measured by the mean and Gini index of career age of coauthors in this team. Team impact is quantified by citations of a paper authored by this team. By analyzing over 7.7 million teams from Science (e.g., Computer Science, Physics), Social Sciences (e.g., Sociology, Library & Information Science), and Arts & Humanities (e.g., Art), we find that flat team structure is associated with higher team impact, especially when teams have high team power level. These findings have been repeated in all five disciplines except Art, and are consistent in various types of teams from Computer Science including teams from industry or academia, teams with different gender groups, teams with geographical contrast, and teams with distinct size.
