Patron-Driven Acquisitions: Transforming Library Collections In The Virtual Environment, Doug Way

Presentations

How do Patron-Driven Acquisitions (PDA) programs work? What challenges do PDA programs present? What are some key benefits of PDA programs?

Doug Way joins us for a presentation and discussion of e-book PDA in academic libraries. He will also discuss what Grand Valley State University has learned since implementing a PDA program in 2009.

A Case Study Of Rules-Based Weeding, Doug Way, Julie A. Garrison

Presentations

Presented at Implementing a Disapproval Plan: A Case Study of Rules-Based Weeding.

Speakers: Doug Way, Grand Valley State University; Julie Garrison, Grand Valley State University; Rick Lugg, Sustainable Collection Services.

In 2013, Grand Valley State University will open a new library building. At that time materials in the library's existing off-site storage facility will be moved into the new library's automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS), reintegrating them with the main collection. These materials had originally been moved into storage in 2003 because of their low use and since that time, only about 1% of the collection has circulated. Knowing …

Presentations

Presented at The Role of Reference in Discovery Systems: Effecting a More Literate Search

Speakers: Will Wheeler, Georgetown University; Doug Way, Grand Valley State University; Gina McCue, Credo Reference, Scott Anderson, Millersville University.

Resource discovery is a top priority in libraries today, as evidenced by the ever-growing number of libraries that are making significant investments in Discovery Systems. With an equally high value placed on promoting Information Literacy, the questions now facing these libraries are: How will their students and faculty get the most out of the Discovery System, how will a variety of users learn to navigate through discovery …

Helping College Students Climb Onto The Lifelong Learning Scaffold And Grapple With Real Life Skills, Debbie Morrow

Presentations

College students today must “learn how to learn” – the content of their college courses will only scratch the surface of what they’ll need to know in the years following graduation, and the ocean of information is wide and deep. Teaching of information literacy skills is ideally closely tied to disciplinary and professional standards, curricular goals, course objectives, and assignment requirements. And ideally librarians can be partners with disciplinary faculty in strategically introducing IL skills into key courses and assignments at selected points in a curriculum. This session will explore a particularly fortuitous convergence of needs and opportunities leading to …

How Do You Measure Student Learning? Sails, Ilcc, & Rgr At Gvsu, Pete Coco, Emily Frigo, Hazel Mcclure, Debbie Morrow

Presentations

The GVSU University Libraries has responded in the last five years to internal and external emphases on assessing student learning outcomes and our contributions to student learning. We’ve conducted a higher-level information literacy assessment, and have made a priority of developing information literacy tools for use by classroom faculty. We have twice administered SAILS, the "Standardized Assessment of Information Literacy Skills," to provide us with a broad benchmark measure of student IL skills against a cohort of our institutional peers. We discovered that large scale efforts such as SAILS can be at odds with our approach to IL, proving to …

Librarians On The Move: Embedded Librarians, Linda Masselink, Anne Merkle Msl, Rita Kohrman

Presentations

Years ago, in the late 90’s when we had an official reference desk and students ambled their way into the library to ask for research assistance I thought it would be a good proactive idea to take the reference desk to students on their home turf in their residence hall, dining area and socializing entities. I thought, “ What better way to burst the illusion bubble that academic librarians were unhelpful, grouchy and untouchable.”
