Open Culture At The Heart Of The University: Libraries As Multicommons, Anna K. Gold
Open Culture At The Heart Of The University: Libraries As Multicommons, Anna K. Gold
Anna K. Gold
The university library can be reconceptualized as a powerful engine for open culture. A generative and regenerative center that naturally brings disciplines, cultures, and generations together, the university library can expand its role in open culture far beyond sharing institutionally-produced research and data through open repositories. Drawing on the experience of a public polytechnic university, this presentation documents the emergence of a university library as a system of open culture programs and as a place where a speeding culture can stop to dialogue, think, and create: generating collective interactive learning; fostering collaboration with open data; cultivating open conversations and learning …
Gist: Joining Ill, Acquisitions, And Collection Development At Eku, Kelly Smith
Gist: Joining Ill, Acquisitions, And Collection Development At Eku, Kelly Smith
Kelly Smith
For libraries who embrace patron-driven acquisitions, the workflows of ILL, Acquisitions, and Collection Development are becoming more interdependent. Workflows that are traditionally siloed in different systems impede the efficient provision of library materials. The Getting It System Toolkit for ILLiad (http://www.gistlibrary.org/) provides an elegant solution to this problem.

What’S The Future Of Systems Librarian And Systems Librarianship?, Xiaohua (Cindy) Li, Hong Ma
Xiaohua (Cindy) Li
There has not been a clear definition of what a system librarian should be, and the definition now is even blurry. Since cloud computing becomes the paradigm for many organizations to manage their IT infrastructure and the advancement of library discovery services start to break the traditional model of the functions of library automation systems, the nature of system librarian jobs is undergoing dramatic changes. The uncertainty of the future arouses the concerns of system librarians. Facing the transformation that technology brings to the library world, system librarians have to choose either to sink in the sea change or take …
Picking Up The Pieces: A Retro Etd Project At Utah State University, Richard W. Clement
Picking Up The Pieces: A Retro Etd Project At Utah State University, Richard W. Clement
Richard W. Clement
Inspired by the many accomplishments of our NDLTD colleagues, the Merrill-Cazier Library decided that our current and very successful ETD program (comprising 1800 titles) was not sufficient and that we needed to go back and digitize and make available the previous 100 years of theses and dissertations produced at Utah State University. We recognized that all our theses and dissertations should be made available on our IR, DigitalCommons @ USU. That realization, and reallocation of resources, was the easy part. Our first difficulty was to identify all the previous theses and dissertation and create a registry. From the online catalog …
From Conception To Reality: Building A Successful Ir At Utah State University, Richard W. Clement
From Conception To Reality: Building A Successful Ir At Utah State University, Richard W. Clement
Richard W. Clement
Utah State University's conception for its institutional repository has been broad from the outset. Our vision has extended far beyond depositing copies of ETDs and collecting previously published peer-reviewed faculty articles, though these remain important components. We recognized and envisioned a broad continuum of scholarly content created on campus that would benefit from the greater access and visibility afforded by deposit in an IR. This continuum ranges from the University Press and scholarly journals to the reports of the Agricultural Extension Service and the technical reports of the Utah Water Laboratory to student research posters, and much more. We also …

Ccc’S Get It Now Service As A Collection Development Strategy, Kelly Smith, Pat New
Kelly Smith
Copyright Clearance Center's "Get it Now" service gives libraries the ability to provide immediate fulfillment of full-text articles from unsubscribed journals from over a dozen publishers. Eastern Kentucky University Libraries implemented "Get it Now" as a mediated ILL service starting in July of 2011. In this session, presenters discussed lessons learned during the implementation of the service, gave an overview of the fulfillment workflow, and outlined its successes and limitations.

The Design Workshop Archive And Digital Collection: A Collaboration Broadening Discovery, Access And Use Of Design Materials, Cheryl D. Walters, Bradford R. Cole, Sara Skindelien, Hillary Osborne
Cheryl D. Walters
This presentation deals with the Design Workshop Archive and Digital Collection, a collaborative project of Utah State University Libraries, the University's Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning Dept. and Design Workshop, a landscape architectural firm based in Denver, Colorado. The story of this project is told from the above three perspectives. Issues discussed include evolution of protocols to assist firm principals in determining which projects and materials should be archived, strategies for handling diverse formats (obsolete through born digital), and innovative ways to broaden discovery, access and use of these design materials through digital collections and learning objects.
User-Focused Acquisitions Strategies: Developing Collections For The 21st Century, Kelly Smith
User-Focused Acquisitions Strategies: Developing Collections For The 21st Century, Kelly Smith
Kelly Smith
With flat or declining budgets and rising prices, most libraries need to find new ways to provide access to the significant amount of content that our users need. Following a user-centered philosophy, Eastern Kentucky University Libraries have implemented several new approaches for acquiring print and electronic resources. Initiatives have included: Patron-driven eBook collections - both broad and subject-specific; article-level purchasing using Copyright Clearance Center’s Get it Now service; and ILL initiated collection development for print resources. The presenter described each initiative and discussed their effect on the budget, the usage of resources, and workflow processes. Future implications for organization and …

Imagining Emergent Metadata, Realizing The Emergent Web, Jason A. Bengtson
Imagining Emergent Metadata, Realizing The Emergent Web, Jason A. Bengtson
Jason A Bengtson
Current metadata schemas are largely analog technology grafted onto the digital format. They have three inherent limitations that need to be transcended: they generate a static product which must be changed manually, they revolve around the needs of human, rather than mechanistic agents, and they are limited by the imagination and organizational capabilities of human agency. The author argues that to meet future challenges metadata will have to take a more flexible, adaptive form that centers on the needs of the machine in searching, interpretation and organization until the information it proxies enters into the human sphere. The author further …

The Art Of Redirection: Putting Mobile Devices Where You Want Them, Jason A. Bengtson
Jason A Bengtson
Mobile technology has exploded, with many libraries experiencing a surge in access to their resources through mobile devices. In response, many institutions have created or are creating mobile sites designed to accommodate themselves to the unique strictures of these devices. One hurdle faced by these organizations, however, is getting mobile users to those sites. One solution is mobile redirect scripts, which automatically redirect mobile users from a regular page to a mobile page. These scripts come in various forms and present unique challenges to libraries. How are these scripts created? What triggers can or should be used to activate them? …

Tapping Into Student Feedback: Instant Surveying With A Tablet, Jennifer Jones, Bryan Sinclair
Tapping Into Student Feedback: Instant Surveying With A Tablet, Jennifer Jones, Bryan Sinclair
Bryan Sinclair
Ongoing assessment in academic libraries, particularly the measurement of student perceptions, preferences, and satisfaction, can be a challenge to schedule and execute. To address this challenge, Georgia State University Library piloted the use of tablet computers (iPads) loaded with survey software to poll subjects quickly in the library buildings. The result was a practical, hands-on model that maximized convenience for both subjects and researchers and that other campus administrative and academic units can easily adopt. Presenters will discuss methodology, the benefits of using tablets for formative assessment, recommendations, lessons learned, and ideas for future projects.
