Preserving Podcasts In Institutional Repositories, Erik Moore, Valerie Collins
Preserving Podcasts In Institutional Repositories, Erik Moore, Valerie Collins
Sandbox Series
In response to the 2020 global pandemic, the University of Minnesota Archives sought to gather digital content documenting the public health crisis and institutional response to COVID-19. Staff identified university-produced podcasts from several departments as information-rich contemporaneous content that was also at high risk of loss. Over the course of this work, we determined that these podcasts should be preserved in our institutional repository, as we came to see University podcasts more broadly as a digital serial publication. Our focus is now on the ongoing maintenance of serial digital publications in a repository and demonstrating the preservation of podcasts as …

Getting Started With Coding, John Beatty
Getting Started With Coding, John Beatty
Sandbox Series
Over the past several years law librarians have become increasingly involved not only with their institutional repositories but also with automating aspects of their workflows for all sorts of common tasks related to faculty scholarship, law reviews, and more. In this sandbox John will share his story, share a wealth of resources for other librarians interested in learning to code as it relates to their roles with their IR, and engage in conversations with attendees to illustrate the variety of paths librarians have taken to develop this unique skill set.
Library Management With Fayol's 14 Principles: Practical Insights, Parbat Chhetri
Library Management With Fayol's 14 Principles: Practical Insights, Parbat Chhetri
Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)
This study explores the practical application of Henri Fayol's 14 Principles of Management in the context of library management. Amid the evolving landscape of libraries, these principles offer a potential framework for optimizing operations and enhancing services. Through a document analysis of web resources, the researcher thoroughly examines each principle's adaptability to libraries. The study's purpose is to discern how these principles can effectively guide decision-making, workflow, and staff engagement within diverse library settings. While the findings shed light on the positive impacts of principle integration, it's important to note that the application may vary due to library-specific nuances. This …

Pitch Perfect: Achieving Faculty And Administrative Support For Techie Projects, Elizabeth Manriquez
Sandbox Series
Technology can be daunting, but understanding difficult concepts is essential for a successful institutional repository manager. When beginning an innovative IR project, the “how” may seem the most difficult piece. However, understanding your own project is just the beginning. How do you then explain and sell your project to a group lacking IR expertise? This article will discuss the complications and best practices associated with garnering support from vital faculty and campus administrators for IR projects centering on technological concepts unfamiliar to them.

Methods For Populating Scholarly Profiles With Repository Data, Pamela Brannon
Sandbox Series
The first sandbox session of the second series will feature Pam Brannon, Coordinator for Faculty Services at the Georgia State University College of Law Library, sharing "Methods for Populating Scholarly Profiles With Repository Data". Over the past couple of years law librarians have become increasingly involved in assisting law faculty with setting up and populating scholarly profiles, including ORCID profiles. In this session, Pam will discuss several methods for using faculty publications metadata housed in a repository to populate these profiles.

Leveraging Bepress’S New Api For Metadata Transformations, Aaron Retteen
Sandbox Series
Getting metadata and content into our Digital Commons institutional repository was always straightforward, but getting information from the repository was always limited and challenging. With the recent release of an API, Digital Commons repositories can be engaged with in exciting new ways. For this series, I’ll discuss my summer project of taking metadata stored into the repository and transforming it into clean metadata for importation to our university’s research information system.

Automation Using Metadata Filters & Leveraging Research Assistants, Rachel Evans, Savanna Nolan
Sandbox Series
The first sandbox session will feature Rachel Evans, Metadata Services & Special Collections Librarian, and Savanna Nolan, Faculty & Instructional Services Librarian, from UGA Law Library: As part of larger efforts university-wide to highlight diversity leading up to the 60th anniversary of desegregation at UGA, the law school focused on identifying materials including photographs, class directors and news articles related to the school's earliest minority graduates. Although a physical exhibit began to take shape in the summer of 2020, limited building access presented challenges in sharing aspects of the exhibit with the community. Rachel and Savanna will share the method …
A Review Of Grey Literature Cited By Food Loss Law And Policy Scholarship, Angela Hackstadt
A Review Of Grey Literature Cited By Food Loss Law And Policy Scholarship, Angela Hackstadt
University Libraries Faculty Scholarship
In the United States, state and federal programs, rules, and legislation attempt to address the social, economic, and environmental impacts of food waste. Research on the efficacy of these interventions rely on a variety of grey literature resources. Grey literature is valuable to policy research but may be overlooked because it is not published commercially and is often deemed unauthoritative. This review focuses on the use of grey literature in food waste law and policy scholarship to identify the most used sources and to determine what, if any, archiving strategies authors use. Recommendations for librarians and researchers are discussed.
