A scriptorium was a necessary adjunct to a library; wherever there was a library it can ordinarily be assumed that there was a scriptorium.he Benedictine Plan of St. Gall is a sketch of an idealised monastery dating from 819-826, which shows the scriptorium and library attached the northeast corner of the main body of the church; this is not reflected by the evidence of surviving monasteries.
One of the most influential ideas about this was the notion of zero defects.. This phrase was coined by Philip Crosby in his 1979 book titled, Quality is Free.. His position was that where there are zero defects, there are no costs associated with issues of poor quality; and hence, quality becomes free.
I recently watched Robert Alvarez provide an excellent description of Quality Objectives, and I share this concept with his permission. ISO 9001:2008, 5.4.1 requires that management set measurable quality objectives. In over 13 years of auditing, I have seen many stated objectivesâof which about only 20% are measurable and 10% are measured effectively. Beware of setting the ideal as a goal. Objectives such as â100% quality, 100% on-timeâ has no ramp-up time; consistent perfection is unrealistic. It is far less motivating to measure how short we fell from meeting a goal as opposed to how close we came.
