Can social media help with post-graduate studies?DrCameronWebb
These are the slides from a professional development lecture I gave to University of Sydney post-graduate students at Westmead Research Hub in August 2016. The aim of this lecture was to showcase some of the ways I use social media as a researcher and public health advocate. The presentation touches on issues such as engagement with the community and mass media, increasing exposure of published research and gathering data to use for grant applications.

The Art of Embedded Librarianship at Georgia Regents University: Collaboratio...Kim Mears
Program Objective: The Greenblatt Library, on the health sciences campus of Georgia Regents University, has implemented embedded librarianship, which uses a service model that incorporates librarians as active university participants at the college level as opposed to the traditional role of service providers.
Participants: Georgia Regents University, Greenblatt Library, and GRU/UGA Medical Partnership Campus Library
Program: The increased use of online information resources requires health sciences librarians to seek new roles outside of the physical library. Greenblatt Library responded to decreased library visits by exploring a service model that allows librarians to provide information at the time and location of need: embedded librarians.
Embedded librarianship has been implemented in the Colleges of Allied Health Sciences, Dental Medicine, Nursing, the Medical College of Georgia, the Georgia Regents Health System, and the GRU/UGA Medical Partnership in Athens. Embedded librarians maintain weekly office hours in academic departments, round in clinical rotations, provide curriculum-based instruction and assist students and faculty with research.
Main Results: The number of contact hours and embedded activities for each college were collected, including office hours, meetings, teaching sessions, and research consultations. The results indicate that varying designs of embedded services are being delivered across the colleges.
Conclusion: As the program continues to grow, the embedded librarians plan to launch new collaborations throughout the enterprise by actively partnering with GRU faculty to seek grant funding, develop open access journals, facilitate group projects, teach health information literacy competencies, and contribute to scholarship and discovery. Additionally, a review of the literature revealed a lack of evaluation methods for embedded librarian service models. Greenblatt Library will explore the development of a formalized assessment tool by establishing baseline data through survey methods.
Presentation given at ACE Memphis 2016. Describes the process a team of Extension and on-campus faculty went through to create a two-day training for Extension personnel to communicate about sensitive and contentious issues related to agriculture and natural resources.
