Business Community Outreach: Exploration Of A New Service Role In An Academic Environment, Patrick Griffis, Sidney Lowe
Business Community Outreach: Exploration Of A New Service Role In An Academic Environment, Patrick Griffis, Sidney Lowe
Library Faculty Publications
A recent special issue of the Journal of Business & Finance Librarianship focusing on business librarianship and entrepreneurship includes many case studies detailing entrepreneurship outreach initiatives from academic libraries. The introductory article, "Entrepreneurship Outreach: A New Role for the Academic Business Librarian" by Karen MacDonald, outlines entrepreneurial outreach initiatives in the issue, stating that they “describe three very different approaches libraries have taken to align themselves with a key mission of the university – economic development” (MacDonald, 2010, p. 159). This chapter elaborates on this previous work in describing the exploration of a new role in business community outreach as …

The Rising Population Of Aliterates In Nigerian Schools: Role Of School Libraries, Julie E. Ilogho
The Rising Population Of Aliterates In Nigerian Schools: Role Of School Libraries, Julie E. Ilogho
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
Nigeria can become a major force in Africa and indeed the world, if proper policies and structures are in place to entrench good reading culture. The rising population of reluctant readers in this age of information explosion is disturbing. Chinelo (2010) in The Nation Newspaper of May 27th noted that no society can develop more than the knowledge base of its citizens. He decried the dying culture of reading among children as leaders of tomorrow. This is the pathetic state of the Nigerian society. It is either Nigerians are not reading or if they do, do so reluctantly.
Nigeria as …

Looking Back, Moving Forward In The Digital Age: A Review Of The Collection Management And Development Literature, 2004–8, Lorre Smith, Daryl R. Bullis
Looking Back, Moving Forward In The Digital Age: A Review Of The Collection Management And Development Literature, 2004–8, Lorre Smith, Daryl R. Bullis
University Libraries Faculty Scholarship
The collection and management of digital resources dominated collection development and management literature produced during 2004–8. Themes covered the changing nature of local collections, redefining collection management responsibilities and practices, cooperation and collaboration, and collection assessment and evaluation. The literature reflected the struggle to manage a vast array of resources while library budgets stagnated. While publishers continued to offer more bundles of electronic publications, librarians responded with strategies to collaborate and negotiate for feasible pricing structures. A culture of continuous assessment was a major topic. During this review period, access to and ownership of digital resources reemerged as a pervasive …
Librarians As Partners In Service-Learning Courses (Part Ii), Maureen Barry
Librarians As Partners In Service-Learning Courses (Part Ii), Maureen Barry
University Libraries' Staff Publications
In Part I, I described two case studies during which I collaborated with service-learning instructors. Here, I will explore how librarian-faculty collaborations for service-learning courses are similar to or different from librarian-faculty collaborations in courses without service-learning and offer advice for librarians who may have the opportunity to support or become a partner in service-learning courses.
Children's Book Update For 2010-2011, Gregory A. Martin
Children's Book Update For 2010-2011, Gregory A. Martin
Gregory A. Martin, M.L.I.S.
Most colleges and universities with teacher training programs have collections of children's books. In many cases, the librarians who are responsible for selecting these books have a number of other responsibilities as well. The workshop for which this bibliography was prepared was designed for those busy librarians who are not always able to devote the time they would like to the selection of children’s books. It explored selected “best” picture books published during 2010 and 2011.

Librarians As Partners In Service-Learning Courses (Part I), Maureen Barry
Librarians As Partners In Service-Learning Courses (Part I), Maureen Barry
University Libraries' Staff Publications
Service-learning is a high-impact educational practice that engages students (Kuh, 2008) and is a growing trend in higher education (Campus Compact, 2011). In 2008, my coinstructor and fellow library staff member, Cheryl Lauricella, and I incorporated service-learning in our for-credit information literacy (IL) course because we recognized that connecting information literacy to the real world through service-learning would lead to increased skill retention and engagement with the curriculum (Barry, 2011). Before this realization, when I taught my first few for-credit information literacy courses as a new professional, I asked my students to research a hobby or something related to their …

Bundles, Big Deals, And The Copyright Wars: What Can Academic Libraries Learn From The Record Industry Crash?, Edward P. Keane
Bundles, Big Deals, And The Copyright Wars: What Can Academic Libraries Learn From The Record Industry Crash?, Edward P. Keane
Publications and Research
This article reviews the contention that U.S. laws favor copyright owners over consumers, and pre-existing models over innovation. The relationship of commercial publishers to the Open Access movement is compared to that of the creators/users of file sharers and the Record Industry. The library literature bears out the contention that journal publishers have exhibited some of the behaviors that contributed to the decline of the major record labels. Librarians who support free scholarship will find the music industry plight instructive; just as iTunes fulfilled consumer demand, Open Access and other alternatives will transform publishing.

Appraising Archivists: Documentation And The Need For Accountability In The Appraisal Process, Samantha N. Cross
Appraising Archivists: Documentation And The Need For Accountability In The Appraisal Process, Samantha N. Cross
WWU Graduate School Collection
Appraisal is one of the first steps in archival processing and arguably the most crucial. Embedded in this process are two concepts fundamental to archives: power of the archivist over the collection and trust, by the public, in the archivist to make decisions regarding the historical record. Justification for decisions regarding appraisal, however, are lacking and archivists have yet to make any headway in establishing a means of accountability. Through the implementation of a formalized appraisal report, archivists can thoroughly document the appraisal process while simultaneously justifying their decisions to the greater archival communities and the public at large. This …
