Elements Of Collaboration: A Retrospective Look At Marketing A Program Of Core Information Competencies, Jeanne M. Brown

Library Faculty Research

First let me start with what this is NOT. This is not a description of the project to develop core information competencies for students in design disciplines. If you are interested in the core competencies and how they were developed, they are posted, along with some of the process, in the online publications section of the ARLIS web site.

What this IS is a description of some of the elements that have contributed to bright spots in my efforts to convince the UNLV School of Architecture faculty to incorporate the competencies throughout the architecture, interiors and landscape programs – and …

Understanding Virtuality: Contributions From Goffman’S "Frame Analysis", Joann Brooks

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

Virtual interactions are normally assumed to be separate and distinct from the “real world,” yet they are also situated within material reality. In this paper I propose that a situated approach to understanding virtuality can be developed through drawing from Goffman’s Frame Analysis (1974/1986). I explain how Goffman’s terminology and concepts afford a way of integrating the study of virtual interaction with the study of social interaction more generally. His frame analysis approach offers constructs useful for distinguishing virtual worlds from each other and from real worlds in a way that is consonant with perspectives on human-computer interaction. His language …

Interpreting Workplace Learning In Terms Of Discourse And Community Of Practice, Adrian K. Ho

Western Libraries Publications

Based on the ethnographic data collected from the workplace of an academic library, I argue that workplace learning (WL) is a situated socio-cognitive process. It is expedited by knowledge management (KM), which is a collective effort to generate, share, and institutionalize work-related knowledge. KM is inherent in the face-to-face conversational interactions embedded in planned formal training, planned informal sharing, and spontaneous informal learning. When face-to-face interaction is not possible, KM is accomplished through textualization. It helps the members of the workplace acquire new work-related knowledge and integrate it to their common, contextualized knowledge base. The contents of the knowledge base …

Operations Research And Organizational Decision-Making In Academic Libraries, Therrin C. Dahlin

Faculty Publications

Operations research entered the library scene in the 1960s and '70s, and has attracted much interest from librarians. This paper examines the assumptions made by selected operations researchers concerning organizational decision-making in academic libraries. The assumptions then are compared to Richard L. Daft's contingency framework of organizational decision-making to determine the appropriateness of applying operations research assumptions and methods to organizational decision-making in an academic library setting. A review of the operations researchers' assumptions and Daft's framework suggests that the operations research approach may be appropriately applied to only a relatively narrow category of problems in academic libraries that match …
