The article presents the discussion on implementation of Asana as a ticketing system for managing e-resource access and troubleshooting at Towson University's Albert S. Cook Library. Topics include growing need for efficient e-resource support, the limitations of traditional methods like email, and the benefits of a dedicated ticketing system for streamlining issue resolution and identifying recurring problems.

Highly active Pt‐based intermetallic nanoparticles (i‐NPs) loaded on stable supports have garnered considerable interest as promising oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts for proton‐exchange‐membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Herein, thermostable tellurium (Te) is vapor‐deposited onto commercial conductive carbon to anchor high‐temperature‐synthesized Pt3Co i‐NPs. Advanced characterization and density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the binding energy of Pt 4f and Co 2p shift positively by 0.12 and 0.95 eV after the introduction of Te in carbon support, promoting the formation of Pt─Te bonds, which enhances the metal–support interactions (MSIs) in Pt3Co/Te‐C (with a more negative binding energy of −10.28 eV). The average size of well‐dispersed Pt3Co i‐NPs (≈3.9 nm) on Te─C is considerably smaller than that of Pt3Co i‐NPs (≈9.1 nm) on commercial carbon. The specific activity of Pt3Co/Te‐C decreases by only 1.5% after 100,000 ultra‐long voltage‐accelerated cycles, while the morphology remains almost unchanged. The membrane electrode assembly using Pt3Co/Te‐C as a cathode demonstrates impressive activity (power density of 2.32 W cm−2@4 A cm−2 and mass activity of 0.50 A mgPt−1@0.9 V) and robust durability (mass activity@0.9 V loss of 26% after 30,000 cycles with intact L12 ordered structure) in H2–O2 operation, significantly exceeding the DOE 2025 requirements.
