Web Reviews: Qr Codes For Sci-Tech Libraries, Lisa Johnston Dec 2011

Web Reviews: Qr Codes For Sci-Tech Libraries, Lisa Johnston

Sci-Tech News

QR Codes are popping up everywhere…classroom walls, conference posters, and even T-shirts (http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/09shirt.html). These “Quick Response” Codes are essentially 2D barcodes that work with your mobile phone’s built-in camera and a reader application ( like “Google Goggles”) to easily point to a web-site or application with one click…rather than typing in a full URL. They also can add a bit of excitement or tech savvy to your promotion materials, such as displays and signs in the library and are very easy to implement.

Recently a group of librarians in my library got together to brainstorm how we can …

Web Reviews: See The Science: Scitech Image Databases, Lisa Johnston

Sci-Tech News

The traditional written research paper is out. Visual communication is in! At least for many lucky students who are a part of the increasing movement toward paper-alternative assignments using posters, presentations, and video to present their sci-tech research. Communicating science and technology concepts visually using graphics, images, artwork, and diagrams is not only an important learning tool, but also a common practice among researchers who share their breakthroughs through presentations, and also new media like blogs, websites, and twitter.

These web resources house massive collections of science and technology photos that can be used, with proper citation, to enrich your …

Planning For Data Curation In The Small Liberal Arts College Environment, Sarah Goldstein, Sarah K. Oelker Aug 2011

Planning For Data Curation In The Small Liberal Arts College Environment, Sarah Goldstein, Sarah K. Oelker

Sci-Tech News

Mount Holyoke College is in an unusual position among small colleges: as a top National Science Foundation (NSF) grant money recipient among liberal arts colleges, we also face the same responsibilities as larger institutions in preparing for new NSF requirements stipulating data management plans in grant proposals. Like other small liberal arts colleges, we have smaller sets of resources at hand than large research universities, which makes our preparations for the new guidelines even more of a challenge. As we have begun to discuss ways to help our faculty and restructure our operations to manage ever more digital content, we …
