Information Literacy At The Intersection Of Scholarly Communications And Social Justice, Sarah Appedu Jun 2019

Information Literacy At The Intersection Of Scholarly Communications And Social Justice, Sarah Appedu

All Musselman Library Staff Works

Undergraduate outreach about Open Access (OA) lies at the intersection of information literacy and Scholarly Communications. Reframing undergraduates as current and future scholars allows us to treat them as agents within the Scholarly Communications network. Students who have mastered fundamental research skills are prepared to view them through the critical lens of Scholarly Communications in order to learn both how to locate resources and how those resources are created. This educational approach highlights the various barriers scholars can face in the research process, as well as provides an awareness of information privilege.

This poster will provide a model for how …

Authors’ Reception 2019 - Janet Morgan Riggs, Janet M. Riggs Mar 2019

Authors’ Reception 2019 - Janet Morgan Riggs, Janet M. Riggs

2018 College Authors

One of the things that we celebrate here tonight at this reception is the strong relationship between faculty and students. The mentoring of student research and creative activity is so important here at Gettysburg—and it’s especially gratifying for faculty and students alike when that collaboration results in co-authored publications. But whether or not publication is an outcome, the opportunity for students to work closely with faculty is something that we offer in a way that not many colleges and universities do. So I thank you all for that—for enriching our students’ education in that way.

I also want to take …

Apples And Glaciers: Students Spark Interdisciplinary Research Collaborations, Salma Monani

2018 College Authors

It is an honor to be here. I want to begin by thanking the library for supporting so many of us in our creative and scholarly work. Quite frankly, it would be impossible for me to do my work without these amazing librarians. They deserve the real applause at this event!

Robin invited my colleague, Dr. Sarah Principato and me to give these opening remarks. Sarah, however, had to give a research talk at Franklin & Marshall, so she was unsure if she would be back in time. I am happy to see that she has been able to make …


Open Education Week @ Gettysburg College 2019, Lauren Ashley Bradford Mar 2019

Open Education Week @ Gettysburg College 2019, Lauren Ashley Bradford

All Musselman Library Staff Works

During Open Education Week 2019, Musselman Library's Department of Scholarly Communications educated the campus community about issues of textbook affordability and about the development of Open Educational Resources. This poster provides basic information about what Open Education is and how it is a response to the high cost of course materials, which creates barriers for many students who cannot afford to purchase their books. Open Education seeks to create equitable access to all course materials and transform traditional ideas about pedagogy.
