Nancy Jeu from the Friends of the Oakland Public Library presented on bringing self-service options to the Oakland Public Library. Due to decreased funding, the library has faced staff reductions which has negatively impacted services. Self-service technologies like RFID and a mobile checkout app could help mitigate these impacts by allowing patrons to check out items on their own, freeing up staff to focus on other tasks and improving wait times. These options may help address the challenges of reduced staffing while still providing important reference assistance to patrons.

The document discusses introducing self-service options at the Oakland Public Library to address decreases in library funding and staffing. It notes that between 2008-2013, US public library funding decreased by an average of 5.3% annually, resulting in staff reductions at the Oakland library. While reference needs remain high, there are now fewer staff to assist patrons. The document recommends adopting RFID self-checkout technology and a mobile app to ease the impact of staff reductions, improve wait times, and streamline the checkout process. This will allow staff to focus on core tasks and enhance patron service despite budget and staffing constraints.

Light my fire: Advocacy for school libraries
Isobel Williams, president of the Australian School Library Association, discusses the importance of advocacy for school libraries. She outlines some risks libraries face like funding squeezes and perceptions that libraries are only for books. Effective advocacy involves building long-term relationships, understanding decision-makers' priorities, and telling stories about the transformative impact of libraries. Advocates should target messages to different audiences like principals, teachers, and parents. The goal is to change perceptions and show how libraries benefit students and communities.
Libraries In Research Assessment
This document summarizes a presentation on research assessment regimes in five countries. It finds that libraries play varying roles in supporting research assessment depending on the country. Countries with more centralized, bibliometrics-focused regimes like Denmark tend to have libraries more involved in data gathering. Countries with decentralized, self-assessment models like the Netherlands involve libraries less strategically. The presentation recommends libraries help make assessment processes more efficient while developing new metrics and strategic advisory roles to support fairer international research evaluation.

This document discusses a survey of scholarly communication services at academic libraries. It summarizes the results of the survey, which found that most large ARL libraries have dedicated scholarly communication units or librarians, while smaller non-ARL libraries are more likely to distribute responsibilities across individual librarians. The top services provided by both types of libraries include outreach on authors' rights, hosting institutional repositories, and supporting open access publishing and digital scholarship. The document reflects on how libraries can strategically provide core scholarly communication services to support research at all institution sizes.

Towards Rubicon: A Tale About Libraries That Crosses The River
The document discusses the changing role of libraries and how they must adapt to remain relevant by crossing the "river" of transformation in research, education, and information access. It suggests that libraries focus on supporting research and education rather than just saving libraries, and that they act as collaborative hubs providing new types of learning spaces, digital resources, and research infrastructure to remain important partners in the future of higher education. The presentation provides examples of how libraries can make this transition and cross the river towards new opportunities.
Student Research Presentations in a Virtual World Environment
This document summarizes student research presentations using virtual world environments. It discusses how traditional research presentations through publications can now be supplemented through virtual worlds, allowing researchers to extend their reach and create new opportunities. Examples are given of student research presentations held in virtual worlds like Second Life in 2008 and 2009. The document argues virtual worlds allow a sense of presence and immersion compared to alternatives like webcams. It concludes by noting librarians have an opportunity to be part of the digital age through innovative uses of technologies like virtual worlds.
