Student Affairs Connection: Promoting The Library Through Co-Curricular Activities, Kathryn M. Crowe
Student Affairs Connection: Promoting The Library Through Co-Curricular Activities, Kathryn M. Crowe
Collaborative Librarianship
Librarians at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) University Libraries developed the “Student Affairs Connection” program in order to market the Libraries to students in co-curricular settings and to collaborate more closely with the Student Affairs Division. The program also provides the opportunity to seek student input on Libraries’ services and resources and to communicate directly with them in a variety of ways. The program has multiple facets: a liaison program where librarians are assigned to specific student organizations and services such as Student Government and Residence Life, a Student Libraries Advisory Council (SLAC) representing diverse groups of …
Assistance Across Borders: American Academic Libraries In Afghanistan And Qatar, Carole Thompson
Assistance Across Borders: American Academic Libraries In Afghanistan And Qatar, Carole Thompson
Collaborative Librarianship
A recent outreach project brought together the American University of Afghanistan and four world renowned US universities with branch campuses in Qatar’s Education City. Librarians in Qatar often collaborate with each other, but this unusual effort was the first time their collaboration reached across international borders to extend assistance to another country. The experience became a cultural exchange that brought together these dramatically different worlds. By utilizing technologies that make connecting and collaborating so easy these days, four librarians with backgrounds in public and technical services worked together to share their expertise, culminating in a learning visit by an AUAF …

Connecting Researchers With Funding Opportunities: A Joint Effort Of The Libraries And The University Research Office, Leslie M. Delserone, Julie A. Kelly, Jody L. Kempf
Collaborative Librarianship
In early 2007, staff from the University of Minnesota Libraries and the Office of the Vice President for Research began a collaboration to present a workshop covering grant resources. The session introduced faculty, staff, and graduate students to four key databases of external granting opportunities as well as intramural funding sources. We explain the context, development, and implementation of this ongoing, popular workshop; mention extensions of the workshop effort; and hope to inspire fellow librarians to identify and explore routes to broad institutional engagement.
Consortia Building Among Libraries In Africa, And The Nigerian Experience, Ngozi Blessing Ossai
Consortia Building Among Libraries In Africa, And The Nigerian Experience, Ngozi Blessing Ossai
Collaborative Librarianship
This study focuses on consortia building among libraries in Africa, with special attention given to Nigeria. It covers the various forms of library consortia: formal and informal as well as cooperative interchanges, including partnerships for resource sharing. Affirming the aim of consortia building as strengthening libraries and library services, the study considers the problems and prospects that are associated with consortia building in Africa and proposes a way forward. It concludes with an affirmation of the need to embrace consortia building among libraries in Africa and an emphasis on the key role ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) plays in consortia …

From Passive To Pervasive: Changing Perceptions Of The Library‟S Role Through Intra-Campus Partnerships, Isaac Gilman, Marita Kunkel
From Passive To Pervasive: Changing Perceptions Of The Library‟S Role Through Intra-Campus Partnerships, Isaac Gilman, Marita Kunkel
Collaborative Librarianship
Traditional views of librarianship, and of academic libraries, have focused on the library‟s role as a collector of external resources for student and faculty use. As this role is increasingly challenged by the explosion of openly available online content, however, academic libraries must move beyond this limited perception of our utility and expand our role to become partners in a broader range of scholarly activities at our institutions. At Pacific University (Oregon), the University Library has developed a series of partnerships and services (many supported by our institutional repository platform) that extend the Library‟s reach and that lend needed support …
