- summary: Exposing faculty and students to open ac- cess resources within the catalog can provide opportunities for open access to become a normal part of their research and educational experiences and increase the use and accep- tance of open access resources. A fortuitous benefit of putting open access resources through a normal acquisition process is the normalization of open access, seamlessly integrating open access into the library and research of an institution.

- summary: The rise was driven by print book sales, while e-book sales declined 4 percent. A recent study at a large, public, research-extensive university “suggest(s) that first-year students who used a library resource at least once were significantly more likely than their peers who did not use the library to report development of critical thinking and analytical skills, written communication skills, and read- ing comprehension skills.” Krista M.

- summary: Studying the history of activism and social movements is essential to understanding how once radical ideas like women’s suffrage and civil rights have been able to move increas- ingly into the mainstream.1 Teaching and researching the history of social movements can be particularly complex as these movements emerge out of tumultuous eras and often involve contro- versial subject matter. The focus of the collection is on the unique civil rights and activist history of Seattle and Pacific Northwest, but the items are of interest to any large discussion of social movements in the United States.

- summary: With the acknowledgment that there are numerous resources available to inform scholarly communication practices, several of the resources I have found to be helpful in thinking about these practices are the ACRL Scholarly Communica- tion Toolkit,6 ACRL Intersections of Scholarly Communication and Information Literacy,7 and the SPARC website.8 I have found all of these resources helpful in providing a good overview of scholarly communication advocacy efforts and practices, to shape strategies to promote scholarly communication at our institutions, and shape the narrative our liaison librarians can use to document the impact of their work. In 2010, Kara Malenfant, ACRL senior strategist for special initiatives, detailed the collaboration and systems thinking approach that UML used to define and identify a baseline expertise in scholarly communication for their liaison librar- ians.4 Successful strategies that UML deployed included an investment in training and profes- sional development that centered on scholarly communication for their liaisons, documenting expectations related to scholarly communication in position descriptions, creating annual goals per the expectations, and assessing how well liaison librarians were meeting the goals related to scholarly communication.

Though this complex issue is beyond the scope of this essay, there is a growing body of research on in- formation literacy and motivated reasoning that will also enrich librarians’ approaches to the Authority frame (for example, Mark Lenker and Geoff Walton).8 While our pedagogical approaches are— and will continue to be—wide-ranging and multifaceted, they can remain grounded in an understanding of source authority as contextual, not arbitrary, and in shared un- derstandings of concepts like fact, evidence, argument, and reasoning.

- summary: By leveraging and con- necting multiple Google apps, we create an automatic and cloud-based workflow, consisting of Google Forms (information entry), Google Sheets (data storage and cal- endar trigger), Google Calendar (containing calendar event and sending notification), and Google Drive (cloud storage). We then invoke formMule, an open source Google Sheets add-on script written by New Visions Cloud Lab,3 to trig- ger a Google Calendar event, which serves as the embargo reminder in our application.

I think that it is a mistake for academic libraries to cling to way they have always done things and to point to the provision of books or database access and the establishment of study spaces as being the primary indicators of our con- tribution to the institutional mission.

- summary: As these large publishers and vendors turn more attention to the publishing infra- structure and elements of scholarly com- munication, they are becoming full-service providers supporting every aspect of scholars’ publication workflow from discovery to dis- semination.4 These changes could have major impacts on smaller publishers, independent service providers, and academic libraries in the coming years.5 The attraction of this model lies in stream- lining disparate elements of academic re- search and publishing with a single provider that can coordinate funding, data collection and analysis, collaboration across institutional and international boundaries, writing, publi- cation, and promotion of published materials. The ACRL Academic Library Impact report advocates working with stakeholders to “statistically analyze and predict student learning and success based on shared analytics.”31 Learning analytics, however, may pose significant conflicts with ALA’s Code of Ethics and “professional commitments to promote intellectual freedom; protect patron privacy and confidentiality; and balance intellectual property interests between library users, their institution, and content creators and vendors.

- summary: The disturbing reality is that twenty years after the original volume, In Our Own Voices: The Changing Face of Librarianship, not enough has significantly changed.9 Mae Evans is science library associate, email: maevans@ wooster.edu, Irene M. H. Herold is librarian of the college, email: [email protected], and Zachary Sharrow is science librarian, email: [email protected], at The College of Wooster There is nary a science, technology, en- gineering, or mathematics (STEM) female represented in the main reading room nor in the library, except for a statue of Nike on the circulation desk, a portrait of Annie B. Irish—the first female faculty at the college who taught German language and literature in the stairway leading to the reading room, and the occasional inclusion of a woman in various historic photographs on the obverse face of walls from the reading room. Given that the college Fast Facts states there are 54% women, 46% men, 20% U.S. students of color, and 13% international students on campus, the disconnect between images and text present in Timken Library and the student body was striking.12 Rather than ignore this disparity, I approached Zachary Sharrow, science librarian, and Mae Evans, science library associate, to ask if they would be interested in adding under- represented groups in STEM to Timken’s visual displays.

- summary: At the University of Kan- sas (KU), we initially joined the rush and created a me- dia literacy Lib- Guide.1 As recent scholarship has shown, dosing undergraduates with media lit- eracy instruc- tion is an effec- tive response that can help students trump even their own political biases when evaluat- ing information online.2 Problematically, in our experience, not all course faculty invite librarians into their classes for media literacy instruction, and LibGuides are most effective when coupled with a class. Conclusion Engaging students in media literacy discus- sions outside of the classroom yielded some great benefits.

- summary: Member librar- ies began reporting their concerns to the Electronic Access and Resources Committee (CCL-EAR) of the Council of Chief Librarians (CCL).2 However, due to the access configuration of shared titles in EBSCO’s e-book platform, participants cannot suppress, remove, or “turn off” e-books they share with others, even via their own vendor portals. By the last collection in 2010, the land- scape for e-book acquisitions had shifted, and many libraries had grown comfortable purchasing and providing access to e-books directly for their own students.

- summary: Reference sources and the Framework’s novice learner Through purposeful reflection of self- practice, conscious application of con- structivist theory, and continual observa- tion of student knowledge gaps, reference sources emerged as ideal teaching tools to introduce Framework concepts and to fulfill many of the students’ learning needs in their early years of higher educa- tion. The main impetus driving the guidance of college students from within their information literacy proximal zone of development into their actual development level is recognizing how and when these struggles will occur as related to academic research.

- summary: Because the conceptual basis of current academic library design is still changing away from traditional academic library spaces, it is necessary to con- tinuously evaluate user needs and desires for study spaces, and what makes an ideal study space, to keep the design of academic libraries relevant to its patrons. Through this evaluation, staff determined that Google Calendar is technically equipped to provide a free, but very basic, room reservation system for academic libraries, but that it requires considerably more upkeep and management by staff than the more costly or open source options.

- date: 2019-01-03
- words: 2007
- flesch: 37
- summary: This shift toward more collaboration between collection managers and faculty using primary source material gave rise to the need for a set of use guidelines, which, as one of the members of the ACRL/RBMS/SAA Joint Task Force on the Development of Guidelines for Primary Source Literacy put it, “present core ideas and learning objectives for those using and teaching primary sources.”4 Unlike secondary source material, which can generally be accessed independent of collection managers (or any other gatekeepers), primary source material is often mediated, making it almost impossible for course instructors wishing to use these sources to bypass collection or repository personnel.

This was widely publicized by the North Korean government, and led to the creation of digital libraries at other universities as well as provinces and cities in subsequent years.

- summary: In this article, we share our experiences with developing CoPs and working with fac- ulty development, and then share what we learned from our experiences, with the goal of encouraging more librarians to try their hands at this method of faculty development. One idea for those pursuing faculty development in this manner might be to switch to a different manner of soliciting feedback, such as through the Classroom Assessment Technique model of minute papers or muddiest point to capture participant thoughts. • “Don’t take it personal.”

- summary: 230 In March 2018, my manuscript on library shame was published in College & Research Libraries.1 The paper’s focus is library anxi- ety, but more accurately it is about the shared experience of normal shame for both the librarian and the user. For example, library anxiety is nothing more than library shame, or shame about shame, but because our ver- nacular usage of shame is synonymous with failure or disgrace, the term library shame sounds demoralizing.

- summary: The primary source page includes a tab for three ways to find primary sources: using library databases, checking footnotes (with an example), and using preselected primary source collections, which will be discussed later.5 The first semester that these courses were taught, fall 2013, a special collections library colleague helped me with four library research open sessions, meaning no sign-up was required, and the sessions were held outside regular class time. Origi- nally, the guides included an introduction, my contact information, and two columns of sources, one for primary sources and another for secondary.

- summary: In 2019, the CUL immersion programs expanded again to include a physical sciences and engineer- ing program to bring us up to three separate, but related, programs to address three broad disciplines. Perhaps the best measure of success is that 95% of past participant respondents said that they have encouraged other graduate students to apply for the immersion program.

The goals of this program are to orient new librar- ians to the organizational culture by building relationships with more senior librarians, and to help new librarians achieve tenure by providing support and advice on job performance, service, and scholarship throughout the six years leading to tenure review.

- summary: The two colleges with book collections be low the American Library Association’s rec ommended minimum will now have adequate resources to support their developing programs for the five years expected to be necessary for them to reach the standard for their size and, in addition, their students probably will have learned the good habit of using other libraries besides the one in their immediate vicinity. Evelyn Mullen of Charlottesville (Region III), Janice Kee of Dallas (Region VII) and Helen Luce of San Francisco (Region IX) have sometimes called me about academic librarians’ inquiries since all of them are experienced in state, school, and public library matters, but feel less familiar with the problems of academic libraries.

We have had many calls from librarians who have not received the forms, but when we explain that they were stapled together like a pamphlet, with green covers, labelled in large black letters, “College Library Resources,” they are usually found, probably among the president’s pile of new magazines.

- summary: Four spend most on 1st class; three spend most on library rate, and one spends most on book rate. A few representative comments: It would nearly double our interlibrary loan postage expenses for the last quarter of 1985 and seriously hamper our outreach program to rural Minnesotans during a time of serious agricultural economic conditions. The total library budget was frozen for next year and any increase in postage rates comes out of the materials budget. Since Interlibrary Loan costs must be passed onto the patron requesting the materials, this important library service would probably cease to be an option in many cases.

Still, BI teaches access to and utilization of both primary and secondary docu ments: the dichotomies primary/secondary (which applies only to documents, not to the research that underlies them) and worldly/docu- mentary do not map on to each other, so that BI does not, in teaching documentation, teach the actual process o f the underlying research, especially in regard to worldly research.

- summary: Written in collaboration with the Smithsonian/Folkways Archives, this set contains more than 100 essays written by area specialists who focus narrowly on top ics often sidestepped in more general sources, such as music of the Gwich’in Indians of Alaska, black banjo songsters of North Carolina, the autoharp in old-time Southern music, music of the Polish Górale community in Chicago, and Chinese-Ameri can traditional music in New York City. Kuhn has retained Slonimsky’s idio syncratic Letters and Documents section (with the addition of a full transcript of the 1985 U.S. Senate hearings on record labeling) and his semi-serious Dictionary with its whimsi cal definitions of both standard musical terms and a few he made up (such as fraudulent modernism, pornographic music, punitive m u sic, s p a s tic v a ria tio n s , a n d Wagneromorphism).

Findings and conclusions from the user opinion survey were instrumental in deriving the Final Report’s recommendations to 1) provide better services more economically through the adoption of automated library record systems and 2) em ploy scarce resources more effectively through use of m anagem ent inform ation provided by those system s startin g with acq u isition of a circulation-plus-partial-search system.

- summary: In a climate in which government information activities are considered unnecessary frills, it is not surprising that publication and dissemination activities are the first to go when agencies are faced with severe budget cuts What follows is only a partial chronology of an emerging pattern of restrictin citizen access to government information. The new order eliminates the exis ting identifiable harm standard, thus weakening the public's ability to sue successfully for release of improperly classified documents under the Freedom of Information Act. .

- summary: This is what has happened: 1) In response to a 1985 National Research Council report that was very critical of NCES, the agency made many improvements in its overall program. 2) Because libraries were mentioned spe cifically in the section on NCES in the Hawkins- Stafford School Improvement Act of 1988, NCES is taking a special interest in library statistics and has established a Library Statistics Unit within its Postsecondary Education Statistics Division. 3) The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) now allows NCES to collect academic library statistics every two years (instead of every four years). 4) A system of library representatives has been established whereby a librarian in each state has agreed to help NCES with the bien nial data collection. 5) Data are submitted to NCES on disk and aggregated/analyzed by microcomputer. 6) The form and instructions have been re vised in response to suggestions from the li brary community. Answers to all of them and more can be found in Academ ic Libraries: 1990 soon to be published by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES).

P rofessional association trends • Probable decline in volunteerism; • Travel budgets continue to be tight at many institutions as travel costs increase; • The need for knowing and responding to the needs and desires of o n e’s membership will increase; • Pressures for regionalization and special ization continue to compete with national as sociations; and • A decline in the economy presents mem bers and associations with increasing monetary pressures.

Since the Library had never developed a formal acquisitions policy with respect to audio tape format, the survey was also to be used for collecting data on the types of record ings held in the Library, to ascertain whether ever changing technology presented problems in the playback and maintenance of these tapes, to assign restoration priorities for individual collections, and to make recommendations for the preservation of their intellectual content.

- summary: The Tanis surveys indicate that the 1969 Tax Reform Act has definitely limited accessibility of manuscript collections through 1) reduced donations of original works of contemporary literature, art, and music, 2) restricted use policies mandated by donors in cases where donations have been accepted on deposit as well as the reluctance of libraries to fully process deposit collec tions which may later be withdrawn, 3) illogical locations, divided collections and separation of collections from closely related materials, and 4) the com plete loss to researchers of many valuable materials either through inaccessible private collections or through accident or neglect. S. 852 would probably not reverse the decline in contemporary manuscript donations because its applicability is limited to sales of compositions.

- summary: He pointed out that, un til now, collective bargaining has been primari ly a phenomenon of the public sector and that, of the 358 campuses on which faculty members have chosen collective bargaining agents, 86 percent are public institutions. Also, collective bargaining typically deals with a much narrower scope of issues than those involved in a governance system, yet bargaining units are more broadly based than traditional governance systems, since the criterion for identifying the group of employees affected by the decisions of management (i.e., the bargaining unit) becomes “community of interest” rather than scholarship.

- summary: But this time “their main thrust will be to provide a means for assessing the adequacy of college libraries.” True, the committee admitted, certain ele ments in the standards would have to change from institution to institution, but the quality is the same everywhere. At the November meeting at which the draft was presented to representatives of professional associations and accrediting bodies for advance comment, a faculty member attacked the stan dards for being too weak on faculty status, col lege officials challenged them for meddling in the affairs of presidents and boards of trustees, and library administrators criticized them for prescribing how a library should be run.

- summary: The 26 researchers and practitioners developed a research agenda of 20 projects, grouped under the headings of 1) information generation and provision of library and information services, 2) information users and uses, 3) economics of information and of library and information services, 4) education and profes sional issues, and 5) intellectual freedom. A sampling of individual project titles includes Exploiting the True Capabilities of Electronic Publication, An Online Network to Support Question Answering in Libraries, Evaluation of the Changing Needs of Online Search System Users as Influenced by Search Systems Experience, and Impact of Information on Industrial Productivity. The research agenda project was not designed as the agenda, nor did col loquium participants see it as such, but as an agenda reflecting important research needs, and as a very useful lobbying and communications tool within the library and information science field, with other fields, and with funding entities.

- title: Opening a university wide dialogue about electronic information resources
- date: 1991-02-01
- words: 3914
- flesch: 49
- summary: Their views may be based on their own educational background in the pre-electronic days, on their experience in disciplines which currently make very little use of electronic information resources, or, conversely, on their experience in disciplines which currently have an extraordinary richness o electronic resources from which to choose. Each of the subjects represented a nontechnical issue that would be influenced dramatically by the increased use of electronic information resources and that would be of immediate concern to all, whether they currently used electronic resources extensively or not.

- date: 1991-02-01
- words: 1870
- flesch: 63
- summary: Assuming that a main frame with a large enough central processing unit and necessary telecommunications and software are in place, cost components to be considered for this option are: additional disk space on the main frame, since loading bibliographic databases will take up a great deal of space, especially if backfiles and/or files with abstracts are loaded; search soft ware which will enable users to search biblio graphic indexes through online catalog terminals, preferably by using the same search protocol as with the online catalog; annual loading fees charged by the vendor of the software, or purchase of a load program to be used by library staff; annual software maintenance fees; subscription prices for February 1991 / 91 the current year of the databases to be loaded; prices of any backfìles to be loaded; and, in most cases, additional terminals, printers, paper, rib bons, or ink cartridges. In addi tion, there is a $250 per year, per file, charge for backfìles after the first year, or 5% of the annual licensing fee, whichever is less.

Defending new library buildings and additions to college administrators and trustees by Alice Harrison Bahr T he earnest predictions of the 1980s and early 1990s “that libraries would become superfluous—mausoleums for books—wh so much was available online” hasn’t come to pass, according to David L.

In summary, a price tag may easily and justifiably be attached to online search services in most situa tions.

- summary: Indeed, we’ve grown accustomed, in looking back at the past, to thinking in terms of a series of great fundamental changes—transitions in technology, in political attitudes, in esthetic sensibilities and cultural values so sweeping that we have been led, somewhat simplistically, to call them “revolutions.” And last year Barbara Moran’s fiftieth anniversary fea ture article in College & Research Libraries de scribed the past half-century of developments in academic libraries as an “unintended revolution” and hinted at still greater changes on the way.1 Indeed, in our own time, as librarians have spe cial reason to know, the world is again undergoing so basic a change in the way in which communica tion is carried out that not only libraries but society itself will surely be transformed.

- summary: Mr. Forth replied in the affirmative and stated it was his understanding that if the standards were adopted, they would become ALA standards and we can expect ALA to do what it could to implement them. W hereas, the achievement of academic status for all academic librarians is a press ing need, and W hereas, it has been demonstrated that those librarians who have academic status may, without adequate assistance, lose that status, and W hereas, the ACRL Board of Directors have voted to establish an Office for Aca demic Status at ACRL headquarters to provide the needed services and assistance for the achievement and retention of aca demic status by academic librarians, and W hereas, it is obvious th a t the proposed Program of Action for Mediation, Arbitra tion and Investigation will not meet all the needs of academic librarians, Be it therefore resolved that the ACRL Membership Meeting instruct the Board of Directors to assure the establish ment of the Office for Academic Status without delay by securing full funding for this office in the 1971-72 budget, and Be it further resolved that, failing to achieve this funding through allotment from the ALA, the ACRL impose a fee of five dollars ($5.00) .upon each of its per sonal members and ten dollars ($10.00) upon each of its institutional members, as provided in the ALA Bylaws, Article VI, Section 6 ( c ) , the proceeds of this assess ment to be used exclusively to support the establishment and operation of an Office for Academic Status.

And even though I know that we can make an argument that our decisions to eliminate the printed word and provide al ternative formats and online access actually deepens our collections and enriches the cultural record, I pause.

- summary: Presumably the missions of research libraries differ at least as much among themselves, espe cially in the more recondite subfields, than do the curricula that are supported by instructional col lections; one would expect this to be true particu larly in the conservative disciplines involving a tra ditional canon of texts, such as English or French literature. The plan, as detailed in Anderson’s arti cle, was based on three beliefs: 1) Many astute library directors recognize re search as an opportunity to: • enhance the library’s status in the university and in the profession; • lift staff morale; and • investigate persistent problems scientifically. 2) Many bright academic librarians would enjoy doing research if they had: • administrative support (time, money, recog nition); • confidence in their ability; • help and training.

Because the American students and faculty have very different expectations for library services, it is hoped that the Center’s library will demonstrate a strong service attitude.

These usually focus on library staff rather than librarians and do not address the practice of acting, although both types of positions share some common characteristics.2 Even though no truly pertinent citations were found for the purpose of this article, many unre lated articles were retrieved solely because the authors of those articles were in acting positions: acting associate dean, acting director, acting dep uty director, and acting state librarian.

- summary: This important piece of legislation would amend the USA PATRIOT Act in the following ways: • restore privacy protections for library and bookseller records, allowing law enforce ment to obtain the records of individuals only when “there are specific and articulable facts giving reason to believe that the per son to whom the records pertain is a foreign power or an agent of a foreign power”; • exempt libraries from “national secu rity letters,” which are nonjudicial subpoe nas issued internally in the FBI that allow the FBI to get e-mail and Internet “transac tional records”; • add oversight provisions to the Justice Department’s request for records from librar ies and bookstores; • extend the sunset provision of the USA PATRIOT Act; and • provide other civil liberties protections. This bill would curb the overly broad powers allowed to law enforcement by the USA PATRIOT Act.

When there are large libraries or resource cen ters nearby to which the two-year college stu dent may go for materials, the college may need to make arrangements, including financial subsidy when appropriate, so that an undue burden is not placed on the neighboring in stitution.

Read a wide assortment of articles: practi cal ones like those which appeared recently in this journal, describing Internet resources in particular subject areas such as Russian and East European studies; news reports about how aca deme, business, and government are struggling or collaborating; technical contributions that discuss how to manipulate electronic docu ments; and philosophical pieces that speculate about the impact on our lives of the so-called Electronic Superhighway. Pro fessional development, in the sense of each individual’s efforts to master new concepts, specialties, or techniques, was occasionally a by-product of such networking, but rarely its goal.

- summary: It may not be a coincidence that C&RL chose articles on libraries as they relate to Germany’s difficult history, whereas the Germans selected an article that was techni cal in its focus, each drawn to and drawing on the perceived strength of the other’s pro fessional and intellectual traditions. The first, “Secret Dissertations in the Ger man Democratic Republic,” by Wilhelm Bleek and Lothar Mertens ( C&RL‚ September 1995) combined 1992 and 1994 ZfBB pieces on the recent discovery that the government of the GDR had deemed thousands of dissertations too sensitive to list in indices, and, with the compliance of universities and libraries, had removed them physically and expunged them bibliographically.

- summary: I n the last 20 years, various attempts have been made to rank library schools in terms of quality. Reputation rankings have also been criticized by Webster, who makes the following objections: rat ings are subject to the halo effect, in which the overall reputation of an institution affects the rank ing of individual departments; ratings lag several years behind reality, so the reputation of a school may be based on events, persons, or activities that are no longer a significant part of a program; schol ars from the nation’s leading universities serve in disproportionately large numbers as raters, and they tend to rank highly departments of the same type and with the same emphases as their own universities have.4 Herubel demonstrates there is considerable overlap between the list of schools of high repute and the list of schools from which the faculties of library science programs (who rate the schools) received their degrees.5 There have been several attempts to relate quantitative variables to reputation.

- summary: If results are satisfactory, a formal agreement or con tract stipulating such terms as the maximum num b er of searches a v ailab le each m o n th , search charges, and types of library patrons to be served should be considered. Finally, the few librarians who do have major interests and training, w hether in chemistry or m u sic, often prefer to apply for the positions in special libraries which more closely parallel their interests; of course, salaries and working conditions are usu ally better in special libraries, and these are added incentives to steer away from the all-purpose gen eralist librarian who may give library tours, keep reference desk hours, have collection development responsibilities and p a rtic ip ate in online search functions.

- summary: In order to assist college and university li braries in the planning and evaluation of effec tive programs to instruct members of the aca demic community in the identification and use of information resources, the following guide lines for bibliographic instruction in academic libraries are suggested; The library should: (1 ) assess the needs of its academic com munity for orientation to the library’s facilities and services, and for instruction in the use of the library’s collections and bibliographic structure; (2) prepare a written profile of the commu nity’s information needs; (3) develop a written statement of objec tives of bibliographic instruction which: (a ) includes immediate and long-range goals with projected timetables for implementation; (b ) is directed to specific identified needs within the academic commu nity, and permits various methods of instruction for all segments of the academic community who have a need to use library resources and services; ( c ) outlines methods by which progress toward the attainment of instruc tional objectives can be measured. Methodology must provide for measures of learning, attitude and cost. (4) provide continuing financial support for bibliographic instruction, (a) clearly identifiable within the li brary’s budget program and state ments; (b ) sufficient to provide the profession al and supportive staff, equipment, materials and facilities necessary to attain the delineated objectives. (5) employ librarians and other qualified staff to plan, implement and evaluate the program, (a) inclusive of persons with training in: various academic disciplines, the identification and use of library resources, teaching skills, prepara tion and use of audiovisual and other instructional materials, prep aration and use of evaluative in struments, clerical skills; (b ) in sufficient numbers necessary to attain the delineated objectives; (c) clearly identifiable and of a status similar to persons responsible for planning, implementing and evaluat ing the other major functions of the library.

Any of our “Year of the Reader” activities could be adapted and tai lored by other academic libraries to use for Na tional Library Week.

- summary: Meeting nursing faculty where they are by using the standards and language they are already familiar with to promote the forth- coming Framework for Information Literacy for Nursing could help librarians establish and leverage collaborations with nursing faculty. To understand how nursing faculty approach information literacy instruc- tion (IL), the group began with a preliminary review of related literature, which was used to inform the design and execution of a sur- vey to understand how nursing faculty inte- grate IL into nursing education curriculums.

Overarching these other concerns is the risk of privatization of data repositories in such a way that it removes autonomy from the researchers and their institutions, while increasing external financial obligations.

When librarians share their failures widely, library users see that the library is adaptable and other librarians have the opportunity to learn and reduce duplicat- ing the failure.

- summary: Some are facilitating rapid and open peer review and fast-tracking the publishing of related research.1 Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Michael Hiltzig refers to this convincing demonstration of the value of open access to scientific research as one of the most important positive disruptions caused by COVID-19.2 The World Health Organization (WHO) maintains a global research hub with links to several publisher sites for access to coro- navirus research, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control has compiled a similar list.3 Elsevier (and its high-profile journals like Cell and The Lancet), Wiley, SpringerNature, The New England Journal of Medicine, and scores of other publishers and publications have provided open access to COVID-19 research.4 Much of those costs shift to technology for managing access (restricted to subscriber-only), which can be eliminated if open access was the governing paradigm.

The unspoken norms, procedures, and genres that incoming students are expected to grasp—both in higher education generally and in information literacy and academic libraries specifically—often make college an unfamiliar, confusing, and unwel- coming new world for first-generation students (FGS).

From its inception in 2015, the literature has challenged the Framework for not explicitly making connections between information literacy and social justice, and not providing avenues for action once an understanding is achieved of the underlying issues of power and privilege within the systems that produce and disseminate infor- mation.6 As use of the Framework evolves, it is becoming clear that it can serve as a tool to generate key questions and subsequent actions that are meaningful to challenge the embedded structures of power and privilege in learners’ immediate contexts.

- summary: Ghent University-based “queueing theorists” found that bathroom wait times are significantly longer for women and could potentially be reduced from six minutes to a minute and a half by transitioning to gender- free restrooms. The act increased national, media, and activist attention on the issue of restroom access for trans people.

- summary: To ensure that all postings contained consistent and required information, we asked project supervisors to complete a job posting form that requested the following: • project/task name, • department/library, • description of work, • skills needed, • possible shared position? • training needed? • project/task timeline, • estimated number of hours per week, and • name/email of project supervisor. This infor- mation would become job bank postings and would appear on the staff site, where the libraries’ employees could review and apply for projects/work for which their skillsets, timeline, and availability lined up.

- summary: At the University of Memphis (UM), two technical services librarians were inspired to present at an institutional conference with the goal of engaging students in building professional competencies and, specifically, enhancing their understanding of an increas- ingly complex information landscape in which they learn and work. p o s e d session was a c c e p t e d , and we be- gan to de- sign content that would address the role of criti- cal thinking in both educational and work environments, while also helping us to highlight the value of technical services work.

The Nudibranch Librarian is still pretty squishy and doesn’t take as many things into their own hands as the Octopus Li- brarian, but they are grounded and have more capacity for self-direction than the Jellyfish Librarian.

Craig Finlay, Andrew Tsuo, and Cassidy Sugimoto note that despite its centrality to the profession, scholarly communication has not seen uptake as a “core component” in the Library and Information Science (LIS) curriculum in U.S. graduate programs.2 Similarly, Josh Bolick, Ma- ria Bonn, and William Cross report that “fewer than 50% of current scholarly communication practitioners felt their education prepared them adequately for any of the named areas of work in that field.”3

- summary: Over the past five years, I have been actively developing RBML’s zine holdings, building on our existing strengths (such as LGBTQ zines and art zines), as well as expanding the collection in new directions.1 Discovering “Quaranzines” In April 2020, I began noticing the hashtag “#quaranzine” on social media.2 Not long after, I started to see articles about pandemic zines in major media outlets, such as Salon, Hyper- allergic, and NPR.3 These pieces discussed zine making as an ideal pandemic pastime: creative, therapeutic, and fun. When COVID-19 caused the world to go into lockdown in early 2020, some were inspired to create zines documenting their lives and experiences during the pandemic.

- summary: Applying the DEI Scorecard rubric to the 2020 Trends questions offers a useful framework for understanding how libraries are implementing EDI initiatives.11 Cultural Embeddedness: Many of the responses to the 2020 Trends questions provide insight into embeddedness in academic library culture, with 27% of academic libraries having formal written goals for EDI that include working to foster an inclusive climate and working to improve workplace culture. Benchmark also offers dashboard visualizations aligned with principles in the ACRL Standards for Libraries in Higher Education.3 Academic libraries completing the survey have free access to their own survey responses and selected aggregate data within Benchmark.4 COVID-19 and academic libraries The 2020 survey gathered data for fiscal year 2019-20 and captures the impact of COVID-19 on academic libraries by asking two COVID-19-specific questions, including the number of weeks during the fiscal year that the library was closed when it otherwise would have been open.

- summary: Librarians can implement Wikipedia as a crowdsourced pedagogical tool for teaching students the six information literacy threshold concepts in the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education.2 Writing and editing Wikipedia articles showcases the research process, requiring students to understand how information is created, ask questions to identify information gaps, use strategic searching to find information, evaluate articles for authority and inclusivity, prop- erly use and cite sources, and connect with other researchers. By editing Wikipedia articles, students can shift from passive to active researchers with the ability to contribute to the conversation on their topic.

- summary: In a context of competition among researchers for limited resources at national, regional, and even international levels, academic libraries such as UCT Libraries have restructured their services to accommodate new areas of research support and, in the process, demonstrated a move from awareness to action in global mindset in response to Global South research imperatives. This transformation has been informed by developments in copyright leg- islation, budget constraints and funding challenges, knowledge sharing and related policies, insti- tutional strategies, and structures.8 Hence, academic libraries globally have been rethinking and reimagining their services to meet changing needs and requirements of their research user com- munities.

- summary: We have identifi ed the following areas where we have had different perceptions, and often misperceptions: • scheduling appointments vs. maintaining walkup service, • extending our service beyond the normal expectations, • training faculty to accomplish tasks themselves vs. providing a finished service for them, • seeking out new opportunities for service vs. waiting for requests to arrive on our desks, • sharing each step of a process with each other vs. trusting others to fulfill their respon sibilities, • acting independently following explicit guidelines vs. building ongoing consensus, and • staffing service desks with professionals only vs. using intensively trained students to assist. While MPC is part of the ITS organization, the director of public services for the library meets regularly with the head of ITS Instruction Support Services to review the activities of and plans for MPC.

Primarily citing usage of the now rescinded “Standards for college libraries,” the 2000 document that served as the basis for the current standards, the authors describe the methods by which 23 academic institutions have relied on the ACRL standards to prepare for accreditation review and inter nal assessment of library services.

As the Pew Foundation report “To Publish and Perish” reminded us more than seven years ago, the “seemingly permanent imbalance between the funds accorded to research libraries and the volume of scholarly output these libraries are expected to pur chase and manage” is not in fact “the library’s problem,” but one that has developed from the practices and traditions of scholarly writ ers and readers.1 How can campus conversations be shifted from the cost of journals to the benefi t of scholarly communication, from library to scholar, from consumption of scholarly in formation to production, and from access to dissemination?

- summary: McLemme expressed his curiosity about the lack of a quintessential blog on academic librarianship.1 Certainly there are blogs by academic librarians on topics of interest to the academic and research library community, but nowhere in the blogosphere could one find a home for the full spectrum of issues facing academic and research libraries and those who work in them. It will deliver content from a team of bloggers whose members are no strangers to voicing their opinions, tackling controversial issues, and writing about the value academic librarians bring to their academic communities.

- summary: The recent fl ourish of research on stress and its subsequent effects on students and faculty should encourage reflection on our part and perhaps a reas- sessment in the ways in which we provide library instruction and how we interact with our patrons.

Much of the landscape has changed since the Silent Era, but Bengtson spices his examination with revelations about the tunnels that passed through several L.A. hills that no longer ex ist, the sidewalk plaque commemorating the site of Mutual Film Corporation’s Lone Star Studio on the wrong side of the street, the location of the classic scene of the Lit tle Tramp shuffling off to a new adventure along Niles Canyon Road in Fremont, and the accidental discovery that Chaplin used the Trinity Auditorium Building—now the Embassy Hotel (and soon to be the Gan sevoort West), just three blocks from the Los Angeles Public Library—for outdoor scenes in The Bank (1915).

The idea of celebrating Constitution Day on September 17 has been around for a while, but it did not become a requirement until 2005.1 I believe Constitution Day presents the perfect opportunity for academic libraries to expand our civic role and increase our value to the campus and to the community.

Specifically, how do they perceive copyright, where do they get their knowl- edge of copyright, and what is the quality of that knowledge in terms of accuracy and currency?

- summary: There was general recognition that al though license agreements made sense in the early days of electronic resource trans actions, which involved expensive content and partners with no experience with the requirements for the provision and acquisi tion of electronic resources, industry norms have matured while both publishers and librarians have gained substantial experience. History Spearheaded by Judy Luther (Informed Strate gies) and Selden Lamoureaux (University of North CarolinaChapel Hill), SERU began as a kernel of an idea in 2005 when Luther and Lamoureaux realized that both publishers and librarians were frustrated by the time consuming and costly process of drafting and negotiating license agreements.

OSU librarians and staff should be able to: • locate and engage library patrons and employees to satisfy patrons’ active learning needs at their time and place of need (skill); • recognize and identify the correct librarian or department to refer patron information needs or requests to (knowledge/attitude/skill); and • understand and appreciate the benefi ts and potential of wireless communications technology for improving staff effi ciency and customer service, as well as managing library costs (knowledge/affect).

While this bill introduced by Representative John Conyers (D-MI) in the U.S. House Committee on the Judiciary would deter open access, we are hopeful that the introduction of S. 1373 and S. Res. 118 indicate that some access policies are headed in a more “open” direction.

Like librarians, instructional technologists are often tasked with addressing plagiarism, academic integrity, information literacy skills, and with using Web-based tech- nologies to communicate with and engage students and faculty members.

Therefore, reiterate that the vast major- ity of publishers have policies congruent with open access policies, and offer resources for faculty with questions.6 Communicate that it’s easy to deposit in the institution’s repository; in fact, many of your faculty probably have already deposited in repositories such as arXiv or PubMedCentral.

- summary: While only 14.8 percent of respondents indicated that they wanted to use library services, this percent- age is likely to grow quickly, as vendors of- fer mobile interfaces to electronic resources, mobile applications for OPACs increase, and more libraries offer reference services via text messaging and mobile interfaces to their own digital collections. News respondents include the effect of Google Books on library collections, the monopoliza- tion of content resulting from consolidation in the publishing industry and the demise of a number of smaller publishers and pub- lications, and a growth in shared collection development. • Budget challenges will continue and libraries will evolve as a result.

- summary: The librarian informed the Writing Studio staff that after the success of the spring workshops, the writing consultants had still been referring HOD students to her when they needed to consult more scholarly resources; and the librarian had encouraged students to return to the Writing Studio for assistance with writing mechanics, so it made sense to simplify the process so the students would only have to travel to one service point for assistance with research and writing. It was agreed that the librarian would have set hours each week at the Writing Studio, so if students needed to ask questions about library resources they could just turn to her, instead of packing up their belongings and heading to the library.

- date: 2010-09-01
- words: 2497
- flesch: 54
- summary: To offset the problems associated with print bookplates, a team of technical services librarians launched a project in 2008 to create and display virtual bookplates for gifts and endowments from imbedded links in the library’s OPAC (see Figure 1). Procedures used by catalog- ers to add donor text to bibliographic records are available at the University of Colorado5 and the University of Maine.6 The University of Pennsylvania has expanded on this con- cept by creating a link in the online catalog for every title purchased with an endowment that routes to a Web page with details on the donor and fund used to purchase the item.7 At the University of Michigan-Dearborn, donor names in the catalog are linked to a bookplate page, and a 710 field is used to bring together all donations for a particular year, i.e., “Library donation, 2009.”8 Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center Medical Library recognizes e-book donors on the Web,9 while Brown University’s use of virtual bookplates involves linking from the catalog record to a bookplate display generated from a database containing detailed information about the donor as well as the endowment, cash gift, or in-kind gift.10 In a presentation at the 2008 Innovative Users Group Conference, Brown University librarians cited a 63 percent increase in new gifts to the library endowment in the year following the introduction of their digital bookplate program.

The prestige fear factor is compounded by the fact that the largest and most respected university presses have, at the most, only dabbled in OA book publishing.

These essays examine the letters as examples of 19th-century gift culture, domestic meta- phor, condolence messages, shared views on books and literature, commentary on wom- en’s roles, veiled eroticism, and nuanced use of emphasis and alliteration.

- summary: Because of the ways in which transliteracy questions authority and devalues hierarchi- cal structures for disseminating information, proponents tend to advocate for issues that help level the information playing field, such as ensuring neutrality and bridging the digital divide. As more research is created in the field, librar- ians can incorporate these new ideas into the ways they assist patrons with accessing, un- derstanding, and producing information.

Even given that there were two additional titles in the top ten that we had repeatedly considered subscribing to but rejected because of the high price, we were surprised that our list of selected titles was not a better predictor of those that were most used when we turned to pay-per-view.

- summary: This Web resource will facilitate the ability of libraries to: • provide essential e-government services to their residents and communities; • work with agencies to develop col- laborations to facilitate services to individu- als; and • develop a range of collective support tools, templates, and training materials that help libraries of all types engage in e- government services rather than each library working on its own. Also participating in this project is Govern- ment Information Online (GIO). Developed jointly by ALA and CLII, this Web resource may include service and resource content, tutorials, best practice approaches to government-library col- laborations, embedded expert government information digital reference, guidance on the provision of e-government services, the ability to share and exchange practices, and tools to facilitate local customization of e-government service provision and resources in libraries.

- summary: n sGeorge M. Eberhart wake of Schiaparelli’s observation of canali in 1877; the Mars mania of the 1890s, cul- minating in H. G. Wells’s War of the Worlds and astronomer Percival Lowell’s pursuit of the “canals” as evidence of Martian life; uto- pian reformist polemics, mediumistic fanta- sies, and the masculinist adventure tales of Edgar Rice Burroughs in the early 20th cen- tury; the emerging realism of science fiction at the dawn of the Space Age, exemplified by Ray Bradbury and Arthur C. Clarke; and Kim Stanley Robinson’s Mars trilogy of the 1990s, which blends all of the earlier themes into a hard-science saga of terraforming and colonization. However, his academic training as a folklor- ist enables him to treat the human experi- ence with UFOs as a “mystery of mythic proportions,” with parallels in the motif of otherworldly journeys, religious experience, magical forces, Jungian archetypes, and even Indian captivity narratives (when compared to UFO abduction tales).

Embedded liaison programs situate librarians within the departments they serve to increase the frequency and depth of librarian-faculty interactions and for librarians to better under- stand the needs of the faculty through direct observation.2 Embedded librarians in research Increasingly, librarians at research-based insti- tutions are applying the embedded librarian model in working directly with the faculty they serve as collaborators on research proj- ects or as a integral part of a research team.

Henry Pun-Off World Champi- onships and a former speechwriter for Pres- ident Bill Clinton, breaks down a remark- able variety of types of pun—homophonic and homographic puns, paradigmatic puns, syntagmatic puns, Spoonerisms, Wellerisms, the chiasmus, Tom Swifties, story puns, knock-knock jokes, daffynitions, meld puns, and portmanteaus. Edited by a panel of Spanish academicians who have brought together contributors from Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas, this well- illustrated volume offers a global perspective on higher education that includes chapters on the beginnings of Oxford and Cambridge, students and scholars from the Enlighten- ment to the birth of liberal democracies, three centuries of founding universities in colonial Latin America, entrepreneurial and world-class institutions, and the relationship of the university to its physical space.

- summary: For more than a year, the ACRL Standards for Libraries in Higher Education Task Force, chaired by University of Nevada- Las Vegas Dean of University Libraries Patricia Iannuzzi, reviewed relevant library, higher edu- cation, and accreditation literature, surveyed academic library directors to understand how the 2004 version of SLHE served the profession and interviewed librarians who had served on accreditation teams to better understand the changes in institutional accreditation process- es. Grounded in nine principles reflecting the core roles and contributions of academic libraries, the newly revised version of SLHE provides a guide to libraries in advanc- ing and sustaining their role as partners in educating students, achieving their institutions’ missions, and positioning libraries as leaders in assessment and continuous improvement on their campuses.

- summary: When you meet your students and faculty face-to-face, you can better anticipate their needs—per- haps identifying some that they weren’t even aware that they had—and demonstrate how the library can offer solutions. Librarians with subject knowledge pos- sess an obvious advantage: a deep under- standing of the scholarship and research process in their area enables them to better serve their academic users and gain cred- ibility with teaching faculty.

- summary: Our anecdotal analysis showed that students felt uncomfortable approaching the staff to ask for assistance and when using research libraries and archives. Mor e impor- tantly, their fear of entering research libraries was severely diminished while their interests in pursuing scholarly research increased, as they learned that there is a public research library open to them, with the collection, space, and staff ready to serve their needs.

- summary: As construction was underway to re- move stacks full of bound journals to create student collaborative space, including 14 new study rooms, representatives from the library information systems (LIS) and circu- lation departments investigated options for allowing students to reserve study rooms in advance. There was some precedent for this; a presentation rehearsal room had recently been set up in this fash- ion, but it turned out to be a cumbersome and awkward process and did not scale well for the number of study rooms available.

- summary: Open access legislation introduced On February 9, 2012, members of the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives introduced identical bills with bipartisan sup- port aimed at improving access to federally funded research. As with FRPAA legislation introduced in previous Congresses dating back to 2006, these new, identical bills would: • require federal departments and agen- cies with an annual extramural research budget of $100 million to develop a policy to ensure researchers submit an electronic copy of the final manuscript accepted for publica- tion in a peer-reviewed journal; • develop a policy ensuring that research- ers submit an electronic copy of the final manuscripts that have been accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal; • ensure that manuscripts are preserved in a stable digital repository maintained by that agency or in another suitable repository that permits free public access, interoperability, and long-term preservation; and • require that each taxpayer-funded manuscript be made available to the public online and without cost, no later than six months after the article has been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

- summary: Connection with campus faculty As other librarians have noted, one of the joys of the semester-long teaching experi- ence is the opportunity to form a richer and deeper connection with students than is usu- ally possible during a typical reference desk interaction or information literacy workshop session.1 While this is certainly true for all the librarians at Arcadia, the most surprising and potentially useful realization we have gained from our experience has been a better under- standing of the work that faculty are engaged in, and perhaps a measure of insight into why they occasionally react negatively to or, more often, simply do not acknowledge librarians’ information literacy overtures. Studies, such as the Ithaka S+R Library Survey, have shown that “faculty respondents place strong value in the traditional functions of the library as an institution that collects and maintains collections for research,” while librarians focus more on the services they provide, and their role as teachers and educators.2 Being able to speak the same language as faculty members has, we be- lieve, helped faculty to learn to see us more as true educators on campus.

Statement of purpose The library should have a written mission statement for its instructional program that: • articulates its purpose for the instruction program in the context of the educational mission of the institution and the needs of the learning community; • involves its institutional community in the formulation of campus-wide information literacy goals and general outcomes; • aligns its goals with the Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, and clearly states a definition of information literacy; • recognizes the diverse nature of the learning community, including the variet- ies of learning styles, attitudes, educational levels, life experiences, cultures, technology skill levels, and other learner variables, such as proximity to the campus itself (distance learning students); • recognizes that instruction programs prepare learners not only for immediate cur- ricular activities, but also for experiences with information use beyond the classroom—in work settings, careers, continuing education and self-development, and lifelong learning in general; and • reflects changes in the institution and learning community through regular review and revision, when appropriate.

- flesch: 55
- summary: Team-based learning (TBL) is a collaborative learning method that emphasizes student preparation, accountability, and appli- cation and provides a framework for students to have more meaningful interactions in the classroom. For such an instructor, a main challenge of the conversion is to “design backwards” from the normal routine, which traditionally requires students to complete assignments only after they’ve heard a lecture or participated in a discussion on that topic.2 In TBL, the experi- enced instructor will need to convert existing course materials and lesson plans to a model in which students learn the information ahead of time rather than through lecture and then spend the bulk of class time building skills through hands-on team activities.

Libraries should take advantage of op- portunities to demonstrate ImpactStory or other altmetrics tools to multiple constitu- ency groups and share visual information on how these metrics have been integrated into a researcher’s profile.

- summary: In the end, we decided to focus on information literacy and the evaluation of sources in our library session with the Woodward Elementary students because as academic librarians, we instruct college students on scholarly research to help them gain information literacy skills as outlined in ACRL’s Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education on a daily basis.1 We knew that we needed a fascinat- ing topic to engage the students, and one of our librarians with a son in elementary school suggested Bigfoot. A few months earlier the dean and the assistant director of the Delaware Campus offered our library the opportunity to participate in a campus-wide program to introduce students to a day of college.

Their influence is manifested in a variety of ways, including advocating for institutional and funder open access policies, consulting with faculty on open access publishing and copyright issues, and managing institutional re- positories that provide public access to faculty and student research.

- summary: In the future, this has the potential to have a large impact on scholars who are increas- ingly using more holistic methods of measur- ing their research impact and computing their impact factor through things like Altmetric5 and ImpactStory6—Reddit is one of the social media sources being accounted for via these methods.7 Reddit also acts to increase these alternative impact factor scores because, as noted regarding Reddit’s impact on items going viral, the community can explode the visibility of research because people use it as an aggregate to get information to post to their own blogs, Twitter feeds, and other me- dia venues, such as news blogs and articles. Reddit’s “information literacy” functions much like a herd-immunity; enough people are acting to protect the herd most of the time.

- summary: These spaces on the second and fourth floors became known, respectively, as Meeting Place 21 and Meeting Place 4.2 By giving these corner rooms a clear pur- pose, the library was able to fill a user need and protect library spaces from additional encroachment. While exploring first-floor renovations for the Research Commons in 2011, staff on the renova- tions committee became aware of the increasing demand for classroom and meeting space in the library and decided to carve out sections of two of the remaining corner study rooms to meet this need.

- summary: As I continue with this approach, I’ve observed that students are surprised and curious when I start with Google Scholar and are then eager to use class time to find and use library resources from the comfort of Google Scholar’s landing page. They also see the similarities and differences of search- ing Google and searching the library catalog, which is a constant source of confusion for new students.

An increasing requirement of data management planning was also found for data librarians. • Rachel A. Fleming-May, Kimberly Doug- lass.

- summary: In alignment with the vision that the “UC li- braries will be lead- ers in providing the broadest access to the world’s knowledge and developing innovative services, strategies, and technological systems that promote discov- ery and preserve knowledge,”5 the Working Group recommended that the UC Libraries adopt CC licenses for its online content.6 Along with promoting greater sharing and reuse of library content, CC licenses require that users give proper credit, potentially increasing library visibility and reputation. We found no cause to draw any distinction in the application of licenses for sharing content between UC libraries and other Association of Research Libraries, state, or international peers.

Beyond the most basic challenges to eq- uitable access to information and intellectual freedom, higher education and libraries are generators and subscribers of critical educa- tional and cultural content that could suffer under a two-tier or “fast-lane” approach to network neutrality.

- summary: Rather than making DMP preparation and compliance the focus of a library research data service program, we should seek to provide more comprehensive support for the management of research data generated on our campuses. Broadening the types of available research data services promises not only to reach a greater number of research- ers, but also to deepen the commitment of academic libraries to supporting the entire research lifecycle.

- summary: This meet- ing led to an open meeting at the 2011 ALA Annual Conference about student activities related to information literacy and later an informal NSSE/Information Literacy Working Group.3 The working group first identified a number of information literacy outcomes and then drafted survey questions related to these outcomes. Initial findings One of the most positive findings from the module is the role of faculty in promoting information literacy skills development.4 While it is not surprising that virtually all students reported that faculty frequently em- phasized not plagiarizing and appropriately citing information sources, the vast majority of students believed that their instructors emphasized the use of scholarly or peer- reviewed sources, questioning the quality of information sources, and using the practices of a specific discipline.

- summary: Open access, open peer review, open data College & Research Libraries is just one part of the broader ACRL publication program, and our shift to digital publication has also allowed us to consider how innovations in other areas of ACRL publishing may be relevant to our work and to consider how innovations pioneered in other journals may also help us to inform future decisions for the journal. Increasing access, growing impact Last month, a study conducted by scholars at Google described how “dramatic changes in scholarly communication” over the past 20 years—the shift to digital publishing, the digitization of journal backfiles, the provision of access to pre-prints, and the development of increasingly powerful search tools facilitating discovery of a wider range of resources—have resulted in increasing use of older articles in current scholarship.1 Looking across a range of scholarly and scientific disciplines, the authors found that the use of older scholarship was not only significantly greater in 2013 than it was in 1990, but that the use of older scholarship has been growing at an increasingly rapid rate since 2002.

- summary: Access: http:// cather.unl.edu/. The Willa Cather Archive is an ambitious and wide-ranging digital archive that aims to provide access to a vast array of materials relating to Cather studies, including works both by and about Cather. Because of this collaboration between scholars, publishers, librarians, and digital humanists, the archive brings together mul- tiple threads in Cather studies by reproducing images of Cather, texts (many of which have never been collected before), scholarly edi- tions, and scholarly articles.

- summary: Given the broad range of students enrolled and content covered, I set a formal teaching goal to provide differentiated instruction (DI), a form of instruction that works against the idea that one size fits all when it comes to learning. For guidance on DI in a technological setting, I adapted information from Amy Ben- jamin’s book called Differentiated Instruction Using Technology: A Guide for Middle and High School Teachers.1 With my energies directed towards designing the course from the ground up, I necessarily took a broad, rather basic view of DI, where students have freedom to personalize their learning activi- ties and assignments.2 The technology-based character of the class provided something for students whether they were visual, audio, or kinesthetic learners and supported many opportunities for students to individualize their work.

- summary: Traditionally, training programs for student library employees have primarily addressed students in their “employee” role by providing them with advanced responsi- bilities and projects,1 ensuring accuracy in library tasks,2 and encouraging professional workplace behavior.3 While these are essen- tial aspects of student employment, our ex- perience at Davidson College Library suggests students can benefit from a training program that more fully integrates the “student” role of student employees. A question we need to explore further is how much of student employee training should be spent on our long-term student learning objectives, and how much on the skills they need as employees.

- summary: Looking back over 15 years during which concerns over “the growing influence of corporate aims and val- ues” in higher education have only increased, Nicholson concludes that the trends identified by Quinn continue to shape academic library practice and that his critique of library leader- ship “largely foreshadows the current state of academic libraries,” including their focus on accountability; return-on-investment; learning analytics; and the standards, guidelines, out- comes, and performance indicators that “[make] libraries increasingly predictable.” In “The McDonaldization of Academic Libraries and the Values of Transformational Change,” Karen Nicholson (University of Guelph) argues that the idea of “McDonaldiza- tion,” as applied to academic libraries by Brian Quinn in 2000, continues to shape the language of library research and practice.

- summary: When I first started planning the annual assessment of library instruction I used an early variation of these seven questions when talking with my colleagues. Finally, libraries should initiate conversations with commercial suppliers (of both cataloging services and library materials) to design feasible ways in which OA materials can be streamed into the acquisition workflow that has long supported libraries.

- summary: After deciding on what new service to offer, the next logical step is to come up with a few potential methods, better yet—hypotheses, to deliver the service. Any hypothesis that is accepted today can be easily disproved tomorrow if new informa- tion is discovered, especially in situations where there are two competing hypotheses.6 In other words, your current library services, library management, and delivery methods will need to be evaluated often.

There seems to be widespread belief among au- thors, library folks, and even some publisher representatives that these variations have to do with different copyrights in the various versions.

- summary: This is unfortunate, because in addition to spicing up IL instruction, the digital content (textual posts, photos, etc.) produced by students connecting and interacting with official library social media accounts can be used as assessment artifacts and, in some cases, as promotional materials in marketing and outreach efforts. Recent studies have shown that 24 percent of teens (13 to 17 year olds) are online “almost constantly” due to three-quarters of them having access to the Internet via smartphones.2 Because current and incoming students are usually already familiar with its charms, social media naturally engages students in the research process.

- summary: Demonstrating value and proving effective- ness is especially important in instruction, and formative evaluation is one strategy that instructional librarians and designers alike can use to measure potential value and effectiveness ahead of time. While formative evaluation is not a new idea, the increasing prevalence of online learning in academic libraries means that formative assessment’s charge to be as true to the environment where learning will happen may take a different form.1 One such instance of formative evaluation involved an online learning module with free and easy-to-use online tools.

Some data is only better than no data if it is good data.

- summary: Disciplinary repositories, like arXiv and PubMedCentral, and registries, like CrossRef and DataCite, account for a much larger footprint in SHARE’s database, totaling more than 14 million records or deposit events.9 Institutional repositories and their role, their level of resources, and their purpose are rigorously debated in the library community, but one thing they need not be, in the SHARE paradigm, is competi- tive with other types of open repositories, especially at a time when disciplinary ef- forts are gaining traction. However, that potential can only be realized if we also invest in and use common infrastructure to unite open repositories, thereby increasing the exposure, recognition, and reuse of all forms of scholarly outputs.

- summary: In response, Yik Yak focused its target audience to users 18 and older and disabled the app on school campuses below the college level.6 Yik Yak further tries to restrict gossip by banning posts that contain personally identifiable infor- mation such as names, phone numbers, or social media profiles and prompting users to think carefully about whether a “yak is cool to post” if it contains threatening or abusive language. In total, we collected 51 ques- tions about library services asked on Yik Yak, and 67 posts that provided feedback about students’ library experience (either compliment or complaint).

- summary: Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to investigate whether there are relationships between first-year college students’ use of academic libraries and four academic outcomes: academic engagement, engagement in scholarly activities, academic skills development, and grade point average. We believe that academic libraries should continue to offer a variety of spaces for students, including quiet spaces for reflection, noisy spaces for collaboration and networking, and makerspaces for experimentation.
