Going The Distance: Flipped Classrooms And The Research Appointment
Going The Distance: Flipped Classrooms And The Research Appointment
The Southeastern Librarian
This case study examines the use of online help guides and their potential impact in helping graduate distance students prepare for a scheduled meeting with a reference librarian. Students taking a dissertation planning course were surveyed to determine if a custom LibGuide and accompanying class assignments prepared them for in-depth research during their meeting with a reference librarian. Findings revealed that the majority of students believed that this flipped-classroom style approach had a positive impact on their research abilities and skills. Recommendations are provided for online help resources that can be adapted for use in online and hybrid courses.

Results showed the differences between library employee perception of …

Preserving And Publicizing Archival Collections
Preserving And Publicizing Archival Collections
The Southeastern Librarian

This forced librarians to educate themselves and discern the best way to move forward. The purpose of this study is to investigate ways to preserve archival collections while increasing the visibility and usage of the content. The first section will include a literature …
