Architecture Library Web Pages: The Instruction Dimension, Jeanne M. Brown

Library Faculty Research

Before getting into the “Instruction Dimension” let’s start with a brief timeline to provide some context. I have been working on my Internet Guide to Architecture and Building for many years now: since 1992 at least, since the time of gophers, and other arcane applications I can barely remember like archie and veronica. It wasn’t until 1995, five years ago, that I started an architecture library home page, with a guide to researching architects that included print and net sources and of course with the Internet Guide to Architecture and Building. It is difficult for me now to visualize those …

An Online Competency Test For Information Literacy: Development, Implementation, And Results, Lynn Cameron, Rebecca Feind

Faculty and Staff Publications

Librarians, faculty, and assessment specialists at James Madison University (JMU) collaborated to develop an online Information-Seeking Skills Test (ISST) to measure competencies relating to information literacy. In this paper we will report on how we developed and implemented the test as a required competency for all first-year students in General Education. We will also report on test results, challenges in implementing a competency test for all freshmen, our training program for faculty, and our remediation program.

Testing The Design Of A Library Information Gateway, W. Bede Mitchell, Laura B. Davidson, Rebecca Ziegler, Ann Viles

University Libraries: Faculty Publications

In autumn of 1999, librarians at Appalachian State University and Georgia Southern University had decided to revise their Web sites. Each institution’s site had been in place for more than a year, and experience with library users had shown that there were certain aspects of the sites’ designs that were confusing. Previous efforts to improve these library sites had involved the pooling of criticisms from the librarians and users, and then a small group of library faculty and staff would attempt to create new designs that avoided the weaknesses of the old designs.

Occasionally, the volume and/or issue numbering is irregular.

Quasirandom Distributed Gaussian Bases For Bound Problems, Sophya Garashchuk, John C. Light

Faculty Publications

We introduce quasirandom distributed Gaussian bases (QDGB) that are well suited for bound problems. The positions of the basis functions are chosen quasirandomly while their widths and density are functions of the potential. The basis function overlap and kinetic energy matrix elements are analytical. The potential energy matrix elements are accurately evaluated using few-point quadratures, since the Gaussian basis functions are localized. The resulting QDGB can be easily constructed and is shown to be accurate and efficient for eigenvalue calculation for several multidimensional model vibrational problems. As more demanding examples, we used a 2D QDGB-DVR basis to calculate the lowest …

Faculty And Student Attitudes Toward Credit Courses For Library Skills, Jeanne R. Davidson

Library Faculty and Staff Publications and Presentations

Faculty, student, and library staff attitudes toward credit courses, as well as various other instructional methods, for teaching library and research skills were assessed. A surprising number of faculty and students did not know about the courses offered. Although other methods, such as Web tutorials and written guides, are preferred, credit courses may still be considered a viable option. To be successful, the courses must be well marketed to both faculty and students, and their importance and content must be clearly understood by faculty advisors.

Charlotte Perkins Gilman, 1860-1935 - An Exhibit Welcoming The Third International Charlotte Perkins Gilman Conference, University Libraries--University Of South Carolina

Rare Books & Special Collections Publications

This brochure accompanied the exhibit of works by Charlotte Perkins Gilman which was installed to welcome the Third International Charlotte Perkins Gilman Conference (March 30-April 3, 2001), an official USC Bicentennial Event. Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935), now best known for her story The Yellow Wallpaper, was also internationally recognized in her lifetime for her writing and lecturing in the fields of sociology and economics. All the books on display were drawn from the Gilman holdings in the Department of Rare Books & Special Collections.

Early Geology Books, University Libraries--University Of South Carolina

Rare Books & Special Collections Publications

This catalog is based on items displayed in early March 2001, for a class visit by Professor Pradeep Talwani’s undergraduate honors-college course in Solid Earth Geology. Most of the books have been in the library since the early 19th century, and some were among the books of Thomas Cooper (1759-1839), professor of chemistry and second president of South Carolina College (now the University of South Carolina). These earlier acquisitions have been joined by items of geological interest in the C. Warren Irvin, Jr., Collection of Charles Darwin & Darwinana, donated to the library in 1996.
