Conference Papers
Since 2010, the library at the Institute of Technology Tallaght (ITT Dublin) in South County Dublin, Republic of Ireland, has been developing a suite of interactive online information literacy tutorials covering research, referencing, plagiarism and core academic skills. These open educational resources (OERs) provide users with a vibrant, challenging learning environment and facilitate flexible, 24/7, independent learning. The learning objects are accessible via multiple delivery platforms and are available for reuse under Creative Commons licence via national and international teaching and learning repositories.
This paper outlines the development of these OERs and how the creation of these learning tools has …

Taking Active Learning To The Next Level: Increasing Student Engagement By Blending Face-To-Face Instruction And Digital Learning Objects, Lindsey Mclean, Elisa Acosta
LMU Librarian Publications & Presentations
The instruction librarians at a four-year, private university developed a multi-year information literacy instruction program to meet recently implemented information literacy learning outcomes in the university’s new core curriculum. The sequential information literacy instruction program includes two required library interventions in the first year - a tutorial to introduce students to basic information literacy concepts and a face-to-face library instruction session to build on the concepts learned in the tutorial. This structured program has presented many opportunities for the librarians to experiment with and assess creative and innovative approaches to instruction. In this presentation we will discuss one such approach …

Open Access Week at Holy Cross
The speaker is a faithful user of open access materials in her profession and also provides open access to the College’s Archives and Special Collections through the Archives’ website, Crossworks and the Internet Archive. However, it wasn’t until she was accepted into the American Needlepoint Guild’s Master Needlework Artist Program that she developed a deep appreciation for unrestricted online access to primary source documents. In The Three Hats of Sarah Campbell, Ms. Campbell will discuss how the discovery of one online resource made her truly invested in the cause of open access.

Did I Sign My Rights Away? Copyright For Authors, Janelle L. Wertzberger
Open Access Week at Gettysburg College
Most authors sign publication contracts without reading them carefully, and consequently transfer all rights to a publisher. Is there another option? (Yes, there is!)
Join us for Did I sign my rights away? Copyright for authors on Wednesday, 10/22/14, at noon (Specialty Dining Room 19).
This session will explain copyright for authors in plain English. Hear successful strategies used by academic authors, review a typical publication contract, and learn about tools that can help you retain the rights you wish to keep while continuing to work with scholarly publishers. If you like, bring a recent publication contract that you signed. …

Presentation: The Legacy Of Lady Bountiful: White Women In The Library, Gina Schlesselman-Tarango
Library Faculty Publications & Presentations
Important to understanding the complex workings of race in LIS is an investigation of the ways in which it has been shaped by gender. A field dominated by white women, tracing the role that the white female body played in early librarianship can illuminate today’s demographic makeup. Calling on the Lady Bountiful archetype, this presentation interrogates the ways in which patriarchy, racism, and notions of femininity have and continue to work in LIS education and practice.

Academic librarians are striving to outreach and promote libraries to students where they are. We oftentimes find ourselves asking… how do we find the students and how do we interact? At Gettysburg College we tackled these questions and devised engagement opportunities using social media and anchoring activities around popular spaces in the library. Our session will explain the planning, execution, and assessment of our projects and how it can be adapted to other libraries.

Yale Day of Data
As a result of reforestation, growth of exurban areas and wildlife adaptation, it is believed that the public is currently encountering more human-wildlife conflicts than ever before. The key to balancing wildlife conservation and human development is understanding the dynamic relationship between humans and carnivores. Specifically, gaining insight into the complexity of this relationship will aide in the creation of more effective conservation policy and outreach.
Reforestation throughout Connecticut has supported a tremendous population growth of pray species and subsequently the growth of predator populations including coyotes, Canis latrans, and black bears, Ursus americanus. According to some biologists, …
