Practical Subject-Based Library Budget Allocation In A Bilingual International University, Marion O. Finnegan

Presentations

Formula-based library budget allocation is a topic of much current interest, but most research to date has focused on the factors which affect or should affect budget allocation, rather than the functional units to which the budget is allocated. Typically, it is assumed that budget will be allocated amongst academic departments or programs, with factors such as use, demand, and program characteristics determining the proportion of budget that each department receives.

In this presentation, we propose and demonstrate a more granular, subject-focused model, where the monograph budget is allocated not amongst departments but amongst academic subjects as represented by course …

Library Orientation Tours As A Teaching And Learning Activity, Corinne Groble, Nicholas Herbert, Maeve Kerins

Presentations

TU Dublin Library Services offered Library orientation worksheets across all five of our campus locations this past academic term (Autumn 2024). The worksheets serve as a self-paced learning tool that encourages autonomous and peer-to-peer learning. The student-focused worksheets familiarise users with the physical and digital resources that the library provides, while encouraging engagement with library staff as an approachable source of help. This presentation will discuss the collaborative design, development, and delivery process between the Teaching and Learning team and academic faculty across the university. It will highlight future plans to further include: adapting to the new Academic Hub space; …

Beyond Engineering: Unleashing The Universal Benefits Of Makerspaces For All Disciplines, Cath Bruhnke

Presentations

The Adobe Studio & Makerspace at Clemson serves students from over fifty-six programs in addition to our engineering program. We collected data from the logs students fill out when logging their equipment use and found that during the '23-’24 academic year, over half of the visitors were from non-engineering programs. We have learned from our discussions with students that word of mouth is a significant factor in bringing new students to our space. With consistent outreach to faculty and staff, we hope to get more non-engineering classes for Adobe Studio & Makerspace tours.

Teach A Man To Fish Or Nourish Them To Grow? Debating Delivering Owned Articles Through Document Delivery Services, Rosemary Humphrey, Renna Redd

Presentations

The age-old proverb “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime” has been used for years in libraries when it comes to discussing how far to go when helping researchers obtain the materials they need. Educating library users on how to find reliable information resources is our shared ultimate goal, but how much should we realistically expect them to know and retain when ILSs are increasingly complicated, inaccurate, and full of library-centric jargon? The presenters will share the results of a survey they administered …

Collection Assessment: Taming The Beast, Renna Redd

Presentations

At Clemson University, each subject librarian has a yearly goal to perform collection assessment and development duties as part of their work with their assigned departments; however, CU Libraries has been without a dedicated Collection Development and/or Management Librarian since prior to the pandemic. As a result, collection development, management, and assessment activities are somewhat piecemeal due to a lack of time, support, and staffing. After a library-wide reorganization in 2022, a 25% time position was created for an existing librarian to take on collection-related duties and start a formal collection assessment program with subject librarians. The Collections Sharing and …
