Empowering And Engaging First Year Students In The Archives, Chloe Gerson Jun 2023

Empowering And Engaging First Year Students In The Archives, Chloe Gerson

ACRL New England Chapter Annual Conference

Archival instruction is often thought of as being only for history majors or graduate students; the Reading Room is a hushed, quiet place filled with antiques, white gloves, and future faculty members. But at Brandeis University, the University Archives & Special Collections Reading Room is also a place for our first year students to engage in the experiential learning component of their first year writing seminars. During in-person class sessions in the archives, students learn how to analyze primary sources in a low stakes environment, allowing them to develop confidence in their ability to incorporate primary sources into their future …


Voter Registration In The Library: Connecting Students And Civic Engagement, Aimee Slater Jun 2023

Voter Registration In The Library: Connecting Students And Civic Engagement, Aimee Slater

ACRL New England Chapter Annual Conference

Brandeis Library hosts several voter registration initiatives for its students in even numbered years and has since 2016 (four cycles!). What began as a tabling event one fall now includes widespread campus effort with students and other campus offices joining the library in a multi-prong approach to connect students, many first time voters, with the requirements of voting from registration to ballot box.

I'll share pitfalls, process improvements, scalability efforts, challenges, and future considerations of this initiative. Participants will walk away with a blueprint of how to implement a similar initiative in their own libraries, and those who might already …

Evolving Library Marketing & Communications Strategies With Intention, Wendy Pothier, Donald Dow, Elizabeth Fowler, Kimberly Sweetman Jun 2023

Evolving Library Marketing & Communications Strategies With Intention, Wendy Pothier, Donald Dow, Elizabeth Fowler, Kimberly Sweetman

ACRL New England Chapter Annual Conference

Over the past decade, the UNH Library outreach efforts have evolved from a workplace add-on to a department headed by an experienced marketing and communications professional. Budget and staffing concerns precipitated by the global pandemic as well as a new organizational structure provided opportunities for the library to reassess their approach to communications, marketing, and outreach. By prioritizing these efforts, the UNH Library used strategic planning to re-envision our engagement with our campus community.

This panel will provide insights from four participants who were instrumental in shifting the library's approach to a more centralized and intentional practice, which produced a …

Taking A Snapshot Of The Academic Library Needs Of Esl/Multilingual First Generation College Students, Kieran Ayton, Laura Faria Tancinco

ACRL New England Chapter Annual Conference

This poster ties into the conference themes of making the library "accessible" to all students (focusing on ESL/MLL student populations) and providing interactive and engaging instruction that holds attention.
While there has been a significant amount of research on how academic librarians can work with multilingual international students, there is a gap in the literature for how academic librarians can best serve multilingual/ESL learners who have completed some or all of their education in the U.S. The learning objective of this poster is to demonstrate the way academic librarians can collaborate with ESL/multilingual learner (MLL) instructors to assess the academic …


Research Rewarded: Engaging Students And The Campus Community Through Library Research Award Programs, Laura Hibbler, Karen Storz, Matt Bejune Jun 2023

Research Rewarded: Engaging Students And The Campus Community Through Library Research Award Programs, Laura Hibbler, Karen Storz, Matt Bejune

ACRL New England Chapter Annual Conference

Librarians and other library workers foster student research through a wide array of services. Yet we don't often see the fruits of this research in students' final projects, nor does the campus community often hear about the library's impact on students' research. Library research award programs are a powerful way for libraries to reward our students' exemplary work while highlighting how central libraries are to student research activities. In this panel, librarians from three institutions, a small liberal arts college, a small research institution, and a public university, will share their diverse experiences starting and coordinating library research award programs, …
