Self-Published Books: Should Libraries Buy Or Not?, Jennifer Culley
Self-Published Books: Should Libraries Buy Or Not?, Jennifer Culley
The Southeastern Librarian
Self-publishing has been around as long as books have existed. Before there were big publishing houses there were authors publishing their own works. Although there is now an abundance of publishers, a large number of self-published books are still being produced each year. There are currently publishers that only assist authors with self-publishing and the numbers are growing with the increase in formats of works, such as print books, e-books, audio books, zines (self-published magazines), etc. Self-published works can also be print-on-demand titles, and are sometimes referred to as vanity publications. There is some belief out there that self-published materials …

Proud To Be A Librarian, Ying Chen
Proud To Be A Librarian, Ying Chen
The Southeastern Librarian
Years have passed since that day. I left the college and assumed a new position in a different city. Yet the memory of his visit and our conversation replays in my mind often. This experience granted me a better understanding of my job: I am not just an information keeper, I am a life transformer. And so are you. Be proud to be a librarian!

Censorship: Filtering Content On The Web, Lizabeth Elaine Stem
Censorship: Filtering Content On The Web, Lizabeth Elaine Stem
The Southeastern Librarian
The World Wide Web has become a vehicle of free expression for millions of people around the world. It also represents a type of international library with no geographical or physical boundaries, bringing a vast array of information into private homes, schools and businesses. Because the Web allows anyone to post anything at any time, many believe some sort of censorship should be imposed. Censorship of the Web comes in the form of software which filters Web sites, blocking those which publish content deemed unsuitable by those administering the filtering software. Most content filtering software is used on computers in …

Customizations Of Web-Scale Discovery Tools In Alabama's Public & Independent College And University Libraries: A Longitudinal Study, Harry Nuttall, Hanrong Wang
The Southeastern Librarian
As digital technology developed to a point that electronic searching for information became practical, librarians began a quest for the Holy Grail of a single-search option that had the potential to harvest search results from the entirety of a library’s holdings. Initially it was hoped that federated searching might be this option, but federated searching was found unequal to the task. Response time was slow and could skew relevance rankings (Thompson, 2013). Further, the first generation of federated search engines proved not nearly capable of searching the totality of a library’s holdings. Something more was needed. That something more was …

Using "Choice" To Measure The Availability And Use Of E-Books, Amanda L. Scott, Rickey D. Best
Using "Choice" To Measure The Availability And Use Of E-Books, Amanda L. Scott, Rickey D. Best
The Southeastern Librarian
As e-books have come to hold a major impact on library collection building activities, the influence of reviews of titles and the on-going conversion of titles to a digital format have significant potential impacts for libraries. Reviewing tools such as Choice and the lag-time between publication notice of the print edition of a work and its corresponding e-version asks the questions, “How many of the print titles that are reviewed in Choice have a corresponding e-version ready for purchase?” and “How used are those e-versions in comparison with print?”
A Risk Assessment Study At The University Of South Alabama Libraries, Richard J. Wood, Mary Duffy
A Risk Assessment Study At The University Of South Alabama Libraries, Richard J. Wood, Mary Duffy
The Southeastern Librarian
Prior to receiving a memorandum from the Director of Risk Management that the libraries would be included in a university-wide risk assessment study, the authors’ only contacts with the director had to do with art works housed in the library and the amount of money kept on-hand at the service desks. We believed that the Risk Assessment Office was primarily concerned with highly vulnerable programs such as the hospitals, pharmacies, athletics, the bookstore, and laboratories. The challenge for us now would be to develop a comprehensive assessment of risks in library facilities and operations from acquisitions and cataloging to circulation, …
