The project's main goals are to 1) have county libraries in three regions arrange debates on locally relevant topics to promote discussion, and 2) provide training to help library staff organize such events. It provides an example of a library that successfully held a debate on the hot topic of how to use a new church building. The evaluation stresses the importance of recruiting knowledgeable speakers, finding the right balance and chemistry among participants, and providing good direction to get the best out of events.

Library Futures & the Importance of Understanding Communities of Users

Christine Madsen

In 2010 I finished a two year ethnographic study of that aimed at understanding how the digitization of rare texts is changing scholars’ work and in turn how it is changing their relationship with the library. I will present some highlights from the findings of that research and discuss more recent research to understand the future of libraries by understanding communities of users. In other words, what can we learn from Tibetan Buddhists, the Parakuyo Maasai, and the CTOs of our top technology companies about how to build the library of the future? This presentation was the 2013 Breslauer Lecture at UCLA GSEIS.

mpcarruthers

The document discusses a collaboration between the University of Miami Libraries' Cuban Heritage Collection and a graduate course on 20th century Latin American literature. Students in the course researched Cuban theater collections and chose objects to digitize. They created structured metadata for the digital objects, which were added to the Cuban Theater Digital Archive and the university's digital collections. This project gave students hands-on experience with metadata while introducing them to digital humanities. It also provided subject expertise to enrich the metadata and engaged more of the university community with the library.

This document outlines a methodology for collaborative digital archiving without taking physical custody of materials. It uses the Primeros Libros project as a case study. The methodology involves defining the collection, identifying content, technical, and preservation partners, setting up scanning stations, training staff, adding additional partners, and ensuring materials are digitized on-site. This non-custodial approach provides multiple preservation sites, increases access for research and instruction, and consolidates cultural materials from various locations internationally through collaboration.

Resource Sharing and Networking

This document discusses resource sharing and networking among libraries. It notes that no single library can satisfy all user needs, leading to the concept of library cooperation through activities like interlibrary loans. The advent of information and communication technologies has created new opportunities for greater cooperation through library consortia. Resource sharing involves reciprocity where members contribute and share resources, knowledge, data, facilities and information. Factors that help and hinder effective resource sharing are discussed.

Wi ls worldwho talk

Joint presentation with Sheli McHugh at the February 27, 2014 University of Scranton IT Forum. Throughout the Weinberg Memorial Library’s 20th Anniversary celebration in 2012-2013, Dean Charles Kratz reflected on the idea of looking back while also looking forward, preserving the history and heritage of the University while also sustaining and advancing innovative research, teaching, and learning at the University. To fulfill this dual role, the Library has collaborated extensively with Information Resources on technology tools, from hardware and software to wiring and wireless infrastructure. In this presentation, Learning Commons Coordinator Sheli McHugh will discuss the ongoing development of the technology-rich Reilly Learning Commons (scheduled to open in Fall 2014), while Digital Services Librarian Kristen Yarmey will share the Library's progress and long-term plans for capturing, preserving, and providing access to born digital resources, such as University records, publications, and web pages, as well as digitized materials from the Library's Archives and Special Collections.
