The document provides information about the Medical Library located at the HealthAlliance Hospital Leominster Campus. It summarizes the library locations and hours, staffed hours, background of the medical library manager, services offered including literature searches, interlibrary loans and notary services, and committees and programs supported by the medical library such as grand rounds, tumor boards and community outreach.
This document discusses resource sharing among libraries. It begins by explaining how the information revolution has led libraries to adopt new technologies and philosophies to disseminate information more cost effectively. It then describes how libraries have realized no single library can acquire all needed materials, making partnerships necessary. The document outlines three phases of development in resource sharing: individual cooperation, linking by technology, and consortia for e-resources. It provides definitions and goals of resource sharing, as well as key areas like interlibrary loans and shared cataloging. The document advocates for resource sharing through library networks and notes technological advances support greater cooperation. It concludes by listing assumptions and tips for effective resource sharing programs.
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.
Selected-Library Associations of India (Part-1)SunilKumar5028
The document discusses several library associations in India, including the Indian Library Association (ILA), Central Government Library Association (CGLA), Indian Association of Special Libraries and Information Centres (IASLIC), Indian Association of Teachers of Library and Information Science (IATLIS), Raja Rammohun Roy Library Foundation, and Academic Library Association (ALA) India. It provides details on the formation, objectives, publications, awards, and conferences of these major Indian library associations.
The Role of Librarians in the 21st CenturyPLAI STRLC
The document discusses the changing role of librarians in the 21st century due to the digital information environment. It outlines both traditional and new roles for librarians as information brokers, technology leaders, educators, and collaborators. Librarians need new professional competencies in areas like information resources, technology management, and research skills. They also require personal competencies like communication skills and a commitment to lifelong learning to adapt to the digital age.
This document discusses organizational structure and its importance. It defines organizational structure as the arrangement and relationships between different components and positions in an institution. A good structure provides efficient work and communication. The main types of structures discussed are functional, subject-based, locality-based, product-based, user-based, and hybrid structures. Key elements of structure mentioned are organization charts, which visualize divisions, authority lines, and responsibilities. An example chart for a university library structure is also provided.
Quality management aims to achieve customer satisfaction through continuous improvement. It is a philosophy based on quality control and employee participation that has evolved from management theories like management by objectives and quality circles. The main contributors to total quality management approaches are W. Edwards Deming, Joseph M. Juran, and Philip B. Crosby. Quality control has developed through phases focusing on problem solving, monitoring, innovation and self-control. The International Organization for Standardization is a non-governmental organization that sets international standards, including quality management standards like ISO 9000 and ISO 14001. Total quality management for libraries focuses on user focus, long-term commitment, decision making based on data, team structures, process change, and empowering employees.

Library networking involves cooperation between libraries to share resources and provide maximum access to users. It requires creating tools like union catalogs to make each library's collections accessible. Rational acquisition and fast interlibrary loan are important. Participating libraries must be willing to contribute records, train staff, and adopt standards. Networks aim to expand access and services while reducing costs through collaborative collection development and resource sharing. They allow libraries to offer more than they could individually.

The committee aims to support teaching, learning, and research by developing collections and information resources for various university programs. It also establishes rules for student use of the library.
OCLC is the world's largest library cooperative, facilitating cataloging, interlibrary loans, and other services through its main products and services. Originally founded in 1967 as the Ohio College Library Center to merge library catalogs electronically and reduce costs, OCLC now hosts WorldCat, the world's largest database of library holdings and metadata. WorldCat allows users to search across library collections and locate items through library discovery tools. OCLC provides additional services such as QuestionPoint for virtual reference and WorldShare for library management and metadata collection.
CATEGORIES OF USERS & THEIR NEEDS (IN CONTEXT OF LIBRARY)RUTVIPAREKH
This document discusses different categories of library users and their information needs. It describes various frameworks for categorizing users, such as by their level of experience (fresher, ordinary reader, specialist), purpose of visit (general reader, subject reader, special reader), and level of engagement (potential user, expected user, actual user, beneficiary user). Example user groups mentioned include students, teachers, researchers, professionals, and policymakers. Characteristics of users like demographic data, social status, education level, and work details are also outlined. Finally, the document identifies two main types of information needs - for current awareness and ad hoc purposes - and a four-part framework involving current, everyday, exhaustive, and catching up approaches.
Bibliographic description involves collecting data about new library items, sorting and categorizing them according to cataloging rules. It provides key information about publications like the title, date, extent and size. The goal is to distinguish between different versions of works and help users identify and select resources without directly accessing the physical items. Accurate bibliographic records allow users to investigate the production processes and histories of materials. Standards help ensure bibliographic data is organized and accessible across libraries and systems.
The document discusses the structure and components of a library circulation system. It covers objectives of circulation work like tracking books that are borrowed and returned. It describes different circulation systems like register, card, and automated systems. Key aspects covered include user registration, charging and discharging books, interlibrary loans, circulation functions, policies, and management.
Libraries and media centers are no longer just places for quiet reading but are learning hubs that help students access both physical and online information. Librarians guide students to information through books or online sources and ensure all students feel comfortable, regardless of interests. While technology has changed how information is accessed and produced, libraries continue meeting students' research needs and providing spaces for both individual work and collaboration. The library of the future remains a vital destination for all types of information seekers.
Library networking involves cooperation between libraries to share resources and provide maximum access to users. It requires creating tools like union catalogs to make each library's collections accessible. Rational acquisition and fast interlibrary loan are important. Participating libraries must be willing to contribute records, train staff, and adopt standards.

Current and global trends in library and information servicesOwabor Emmanuel
This document discusses current trends in libraries and information services globally and how libraries must adapt to remain relevant. Key points include:
1) Advancements in technology have changed the roles of librarians and expectations of services;
2) Librarians must acquire new digital skills and move beyond traditional roles to curate and provide access to electronic resources;
3) Libraries are increasingly virtual and digital, providing remote access to vast collections of online information.
This document provides an overview of 21st century literacy skills and guided inquiry. It discusses new literacies such as online reading comprehension and skills needed for technologies like wikis, blogs, and social media. Guided inquiry is introduced as a method where teachers and librarians guide students through curriculum-based research projects to build deep knowledge and independent learning skills. Key aspects of guided inquiry include using inquiry circles, implementing roles within groups, and creating a third space where personal and curriculum knowledge merge.
Looking Forward: The Future of LibrariesKaren Mellor
This document discusses the changing role of libraries in the digital age. While traditional services like circulation and reference questions are declining, library visits and program attendance are increasing. To remain relevant, libraries must embrace new technologies, become more collaborative spaces that encourage participation, and meet users where they are online through social media and mobile platforms. The future of libraries relies on helping patrons master emerging literacies, acting as hubs for information sharing, and understanding users' needs in our new digital information ecosystem.
The document provides a strategic overview of developing a Digital Public Library for Flanders. It discusses how public library roles must change to adapt to new media behaviors and the shift to a participatory digital environment. The library must become a gatekeeper, curator, guide, and participant to help people navigate the expanding digital world and universal collection. A strategy is outlined with guidelines and a roadmap to rebrand libraries and help the staff and public libraries evolve over the next 6 years.
This document summarizes a presentation on the evolution of libraries given by Stephen Abram. It addresses questions about whether libraries are at risk of becoming obsolete and how they must change and adapt to new technologies and user needs. Key points discussed include how users, collections, mobility, and the role of libraries have significantly changed; challenges like ebooks outpacing print; and opportunities for libraries to stay relevant through embracing new formats, building knowledge portals, and enhancing discovery of library resources online. The presentation argues that libraries must keep up with rapid changes and work as a team to better understand users and ensure they are successful and satisfied.
Focusing on European citizens and the impact of Open Access monographs for themSimon Tanner
Keynote at: A Knowledge Exchange Workshop on Open Access and Monographs 7th – 8th November 2018, Brussels, Belgium
This talk will place the citizen at the centre of the debate about the value and potential impact of Open Access for monographs. It will consider how they are or could be effected by OA mandates, policy and infrastructures using the EC’s own impact policy agenda as a focal point to consider the economic, societal/community, innovation and operational.

Remapping the Global and Local in Knowledge Production: Roles of Open AccessLeslie Chan
It is generally acknowledged that researchers and institutions in the Global South suffer from knowledge isolation because of poor infrastructure and lack of access to key resources, including the current literature. The remedy is therefore capacity building and the transfer of not only knowledge, but also the institutional framework of knowledge creation from the North to the South. In this context, Open Access to the scholarly literature is seen as a means of bridging the global knowledge gap.
In this presentation, I argue that a key contributor to the continual knowledge divide and the invisibility of knowledge from the Global South is the persistence and dominance of Northern frameworks of research evaluation and quality metrics, coupled with outmoded national and international innovation policies based on exclusion and competitiveness. These narrow measures have tended to skew international research agenda and undermine locally relevant research.
A great opportunity that Open Access provides is the means to develop alternative metrics of research uptake and impact that are more inclusive of knowledge from the South, particularly those with development outcomes. In particular, it is important to re-conceptualize and re-design the metrics of research impact to reflect new scholarly practices and the diverse means of engagement enabled by OA and the new wave of social media tools. At the same time, appropriate policies need to be developed to reward open scholarship and to encourage research sharing — issues of particular importance for ending knowledge isolation. Examples of the new kinds of “invisible college” enabled by networking tools and OA will be presented, and particular attention will be paid to innovations emanating from the periphery.
Media, information and the promise of new technologies in Knowledge Transfer ...maudelfin
The document discusses knowledge transfer and exchange in the context of global health research. It explores how new technologies and networked societies are challenging traditional models of knowledge generation and dissemination. It also examines examples of new configurations for knowledge sharing, such as open data initiatives, crisis mapping, and open access protocols that utilize distributed networks instead of hierarchies. Finally, it calls for future research on knowledge transfer and exchange to take a more critical approach and consider how power structures and institutional contexts are impacted.
The IFLA Trend Report identifies five top level trends which will play a key role in shaping our future information ecosystem:
TREND 1 New Technologies will Both Expand and Limit Who has Access to Information.
TREND 2 Online Education will Democratise and Disrupt Global Learning.
TREND 3 The Boundaries of Privacy and Data Protection will be Redefined.
TREND 4 Hyper-Connected Societies will Listen to and Empower New Voices and Groups.
TREND 5 The Global Information Economy will be Transformed by New Technologies.
1) The information ecosystem has dramatically changed from the industrial age to the information age, with information now being abundant, cheap, personally oriented and designed for participation rather than consumption.
2) Libraries must adapt to survive in this new ecosystem by thinking of themselves as nodes for finding information, social networking, and aggregating and linking to online content.
3) Libraries should experiment with new technologies like blogs, wikis and social media, and help patrons develop new literacies for navigating the digital world.
1) The information ecosystem has dramatically changed from the industrial age to the information age, with information now being abundant, cheap, personally oriented and designed for participation rather than consumption.
2) This has disrupted libraries and challenged their role as key information institutions, as people now have many more options for accessing and sharing information through new digital technologies and online platforms.
3) For libraries to remain relevant, the document recommends that they embrace their role as hubs for information, social networking, and developing new media literacies to help people navigate the modern information landscape.

Professional Digital Presence for the Librarian Reseachermputerba
Good Day,
Take the survey https://bit.ly/2ZlJvkR
My colleagues Heather Alexander, Dominican College, and Hua Sun, Shandong University of Arts, and I are researching the development of librarians as professionals. Part of this research comes in the shape of a survey found at https://bit.ly/2ZlJvkR. The study looks at one aspect of this research, the promotion of librarians as researchers.
Generally speaking, librarians conduct research as part of their work. Usually, this research involves day to day tasks such as the gathering usage statistics for ILL, databases, and the physical library. These are important within the institution. At other times the information gathered by librarians has practical implications for the profession as a whole and are shared in publications or conference presentations.
As part of our research, we want to know if and with what tools librarians promote their research as professionals. In particular, we are looking at the use of social media to create a professional digital presence.
Please help us in this study by taking the survey at https://bit.ly/2ZlJvkR . The survey takes less than 10 minutes. We are doing this solely for scholarly purposes.
If you would like to review the sites discussed in the survey, please see the presentation at https://bit.ly/2JxSfiR .
Thank you,
