The Y Factor, J. Ray Doerksen

The Christian Librarian

In my last column, I discussed the issue of faculty status, trying to analyze why librarians have failed to achieve their most desired target -- academic respectability. I concluded that faculty culture does not accept librarians as equals. Yes, librarians may be useful -- they may eve be expert in what they do -- but they are different. Faculty may be ready to grant librarians something, but it is not equal status. Maybe it is time to examine the need for status that librarians exhibit.

Honored: Emily Russell Award 2000, Bonnnie L. Travers

The Christian Librarian

It is my honor and privilege this evening to present the Emily Russel Award to one of the finest Christian Librarians it has been our collective privilege to know. For me, it is even more; it is sheer joy to give tribute to a woman who has during our longstanding professional relationship been a source of inspiration, a model of integrity, and a continuing influence. Probably all of us in this room can list only a few people besides family members who have made a major impact on us. I would list this lady's name.

Another Side Of Acl Conference, Ruth Ann Stites

The Christian Librarian

ACL Conference 1999 at Lee University was a great deal of fun. The text comes from my notes rather than letters to my friend and business partne1; Mark Vette,; although I kept in touch with him this year via e-mail. I hope you enjoy follow ing me around again as you read "Another Side of Conference. "

Honored, Barbara Nelson

The Christian Librarian

he Board of Directors of the Association of Christian Librarians honored an unsung hero when it selected Stephen P. Brown to receive the 1999 Emily Russel Award. While his contributions to ACL may be unknown by many, they are certainly known and appreciated by those who have been involved in the leadership of this Association anytime in the last twenty plus years. Perhaps no one knows all of the things he has done behind the scenes to keep this Association functioning and viable.

Editorial, Diane Sullivan

The Christian Librarian

The first TCL issue of the new year is now under my belt. As the new Design Editor, the January 2000 TCL was a labor of love. It was also one of trial and error. I learned how to logically arrange the pages and articles within the issue. I experimented with various graphical changes but tried to keep a recognizable style in the grand TLC tradition.

A Philosophy Of Christian Librarianship, Gregory A. Smith

The Christian Librarian

While a number of Christian librarians have explored the implications of the Christian world view for particular issues in library practice, few have attempted to develop a thoroughgoing philosophy of Christian librarians/zip. Those who have done so have generally failed to center their proposals around the Christian view of truth. The knowability, objectivity, unity, practicality, and spirituality of truth should impact the way librarians at Christian colleges carry out major library functions, including collection development, reference services, bibliographic instruction, research and publication, and management.

The Gettysburg Experience, Robin Wagner

All Musselman Library Staff Works

In February 1994, Gettysburg College launched an ambitious experiment that joined computing and the library into a new organization known as Information Resources. Gettysburg College, one of the first liberal arts colleges to undertake such a merger, sought, along with only a handful of other institutions, a level of integration so complete that all vestiges of the traditional library disappeared. This is the story of that merger and why it failed despite the best efforts of many. [excerpt]

The Role Of Classification In Knowledge Representation And Discovery, Barbara H. Kwasnik

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

The link between classification and knowledge is explored. Classification schemes have properties that enable the representation of entities and relationships in structures that reflect knowledge of the domain being classified. The strengths and limitations of four classificatory approaches are described in terms of their ability to reflect, discover, and create new knowledge. These approaches are hierarchies, trees, paradigms, and faceted analysis. Examples are provided of the way in which knowledge and the classification process affect each other.

Targets For Transformation: A Strategic Plan For The Syracuse University Library, 2000-2005, Roberta B. Gwilt, Martha J. Hanson, Kelley Lasher, Pamela Whiteley Mclaughlin, Lisa Moeckel, Suzanne Preate

Librarian Publications

A strategic plan is a tool that enables an organization to revitalize itself and focus on a set of mission-critical goals over a period of time. A well-crafted plan intentionally implemented and consistently monitored promotes success in strategic areas and provides a foundation for transforming services, technology, collections, and infrastructure to meet the constantly evolving needs and demands of teaching, research, and scholarly communication. A strategic plan:

• articulates commonly held values and a shared sense of purpose and mission
• proposes goals and assesses progress to those goals
• informs decision-making
• enables action within a larger context that is known and understood …

Another Side Of Acl Conference, Ruth Ann Stites

This year's conference was different. I brought my sisters, Mary Mitchell and Sandra Edster, along. We enjoyed some real vacation time, although they did more vacationing than I did. Still, ACL Conference offers so many opportunities for fellowship that it is the most pleasant of work.

Around The World In Eight Days, Leanne Hardy

The Christian Librarian

Theological schools in the two-thirds world struggle with untrained staff and inadequate resources. On-site evaluations, training workshops, automation projects and blitz cataloging are four ways Christian librarians can assist through short visits overseas. Good communication and preparation are essential for a successful visit. Follow-up communication can tum a short visit into a long-term partnership.
