Cataloging Electronic Theses And Dissertations: Updates And Perspectives From The Mississippi State University Libraries, Meg C. Wang Nov 2023

Cataloging Electronic Theses And Dissertations: Updates And Perspectives From The Mississippi State University Libraries, Meg C. Wang

The Southeastern Librarian

Over the last two decades, electronic submission of theses and dissertations has become more common, and cataloging processes have evolved as well. At the same time, the Resource Description and Access (RDA) cataloging guidelines, which are better designed to describe digital resources, were widely imple-mented in 2013 in order to replace the Anglo-American Cataloging Rules (AACR2), which emphasize the description of a physical item. These changes have brought unceasing challenges into cataloging work-flows. Especially with the development of linked data and the semantic web, catalogers consistently need to adapt measures to local conditions. This paper describes the recent issues that …

Mediated Demand Driven Acquisitions For Most Formats Through Interlibrary Loan Requests, Victoria Koger Aug 2023

Mediated Demand Driven Acquisitions For Most Formats Through Interlibrary Loan Requests, Victoria Koger

The Southeastern Librarian

While libraries no longer dream of having everything patrons might ever want or need, they can make an effort to get closer to those needs without going over budget. It doesn’t have to take loading additional records in the catalog or a team of librarians to find and select titles. This paper explores the process Eastern Kentucky University Libraries went through to create and develop a mediated demand driven acquisitions workflow starting with interlibrary loan requests and helped the collection become modern, diversified, and more responsive to current users and curriculum.

Adapting Research Guides And Library Instruction To Provide Educational Support For Distance And In-Person Learners, Justin M. Easterday Aug 2023

Adapting Research Guides And Library Instruction To Provide Educational Support For Distance And In-Person Learners, Justin M. Easterday

The Southeastern Librarian

Advancements in technology have impacted how people gather and obtain new information. This phe-nomenon is especially apparent among younger generations where there has been an increase in the number of students who are visual learners. To continue to best serve these students, librarians need to begin to adapt library instructional material, such as research guides, to also present information using visual multimedia resources. While adapting research guides to increasingly visual learners, the oppor-tunity exists to ensure that research guides follow a user-centered design. In the process of updating these guides, librarians can also provide some assistance with web accessibility by …

Scanning The Digital: Using Survey Data To Support Digital Scholarship Initiatives At The University Of Mississippi, Abigail Norris, Adam Clemons, Alex Watson

The Southeastern Librarian

Digital scholarship (the use of digital technology in research or teaching applications) is a new and growing field but many Mississippi libraries, including the University of Mississippi, are not officially supporting digital scholarship. To change this, librarians at the University of Mississippi sent out an online survey to faculty, staff, postdocs, and graduate students in order to gauge their interest in and experience with digital scholarship methods and tools and how the library can best support digital scholarship on campus. The results showed a wide variety of interest and expertise across several fields, mostly in the humanities, with important data …
