•
2 likes•494 views
The library placed QR codes around a new science building to provide students and faculty mobile access to library resources. Codes were placed on professor's doors, classrooms, and study rooms to link to databases, research guides, the catalog, and other academic materials from mobile devices. The library obtained permissions, designed templates, created codes in bulk, and plans to recruit faculty involvement, develop more pages, and integrate the codes into the university system while addressing accessibility issues.

Information, Not Location: Putting the What in Front of the Where So Patrons...
Talk given at NERCOMP's New Discovery Tools Symposium on 1 February 2010.
At the University of Michigan Library, we recently launched a new library web site [www.lib.umich.edu] that strives to put the library's resources in the foreground while leaving the particular tools that manage and provide access to them in the background. The site, built on Drupal, VuFind, LibGuides, and Ex Libris's Metalib, integrates a range of library services without forcing the user to look in specialized interfaces for them. For example, a site search dynamically returns results from the catalog (including materials available through the HathiTrust), our ejournals and databases lists, our web site, research guides, and librarian subject specialists. Our more static browse pages highlight the best resources in each of these categories for our patrons.
Pikas Maryland Tech Day 2007

It also provides tips on gaining participation like involving users early, providing examples and marketing the tools.
Effects of Social Networking in Academic Literacy
The document discusses the effects of social networking on academic literacy and identifies both benefits and concerns. It provides examples of popular social networks like Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter and how they are used for educational purposes. Key benefits mentioned include supporting collaboration and networking among students and faculty, while concerns relate to privacy, information misuse, and potential legal issues.
Too Difficult
The document discusses gaining business intelligence from user activity data in libraries and higher education institutions. It outlines challenges in collecting and analyzing comprehensive user data from different systems. The Open University perspective is that most students do not visit physical libraries and sign up for individual courses rather than degrees. However, the university has significant online user traffic that could provide insights if integrated across various learning and library systems. Overcoming cultural, technical, and data challenges will be key to developing a comprehensive view of user activity data.

Abstract: Several Pennsylvania libraries, museums, and cultural heritage organizations have been collaborating to explore ways to make Pennsylvania‘s digital collections widely and freely available in the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). DPLA brings together millions of items and makes them findable in innovative ways, including timelines, maps, and more. The magic behind these searches is your metadata. It doesn’t have to perfect, but there are ways to make it play well in DPLA and across the web. This session will offer best practices for metadata cleanup and enhancement, with a focus on preparing one’s digital collections for contribution to DPLA.

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.
Capture All the URLS: First Steps in Web Archiving
Presentation with Judy Silva (Fine & Performing Arts Librarian and Archivist at Slippery Rock University) and Alexis Antracoli (Records Management archivist at Drexel University) at the Pennsylvania Library Association's 2013 annual conference in Seven Springs, Pennsylvania.
Abstract: As higher education embraces new technologies, teaching, learning, research, and record-keeping is increasingly taking place on university websites, on university-related social media pages, and elsewhere on the open web. This dynamic digital content, however, is highly vulnerable to degradation and loss. This session will introduce the concept of web archiving and articulate why it’s important for colleges and universities. Speakers will demonstrate web archiving service Archive-It and then share lessons learned from their institutions’ web archiving initiatives, from unexpected stumbling blocks to strategies for raising funds and support from campus stakeholders.
Once and Future Digital Collections
This document summarizes the past, present, and future of the University of Scranton's digital collections. Currently there are 15 digital collections containing around 700 GB of digitized content. In the future, the university aims to expand born-digital collections, engage in more web archiving, and allow for community contributions. Workflow and staffing will become more flexible and collaborative. Digitization and description will be improved through automation and linked data. The digital collections will be promoted through additional outreach methods and their value and use will be better assessed over time.
Information Literacy in an Age of Algorithms
Presentation for the Pennsylvania Library Association's College & Research Division, as part of the Connect & Communicate series.
As data collection and processing become easier and cheaper, algorithms and information systems are quite literally reshaping our communities. Our students face a radically new information environment in which converging streams of data have unseen and unexpected effects on human attitudes and behavior. How can academic librarians teach students to recognize and remain conscious of the information systems in which they participate? How can we prepare students to be informed citizens in an increasingly complex, data-driven society?

Near Field Communication: Introduction and Implications
Presentation with Sheli McHugh for a virtual learning session with the SLA Nonprofit Section and the Consortium of Foundation Libraries.
Near Field Communication (NFC) is an emerging technology that allows devices and objects to transmit information wirelessly across a small distance. While it has many commercial applications (e.g., using your cell phone as a credit card at the grocery store), NFC could also have future applications for libraries as an intuitive way to derive digital meaning from the physical world. Placing particular attention to the needs of philanthropies, research institutions, and other nonprofit organizations, this presentation will introduce NFC technology and its potential uses in libraries, from frictionless fundraising and information sharing to peer-to-peer loaning and self checkout.
Digital Collections: Worst Mistakes and Greatest Hits
Presentation given on April 25, 2012 at the Albright Memorial Library in Scranton, PA, for a Save Pennsylvania's Past Digitization Basics workshop.
Civil War Project - Student Handout
Student handout from"The Practical Historian," a presentation with Dr. Kathryn Shively Meier at the 2012 meeting of the Society for Historians of the Early American Republic in Baltimore, Maryland.
Professors Meier and Yarmey will discuss their students’ project, “Any Victory Would Be Dear.” Groups of students partnered with the Lackawanna Historical Society, Scranton Public Library, and university library to conduct archival research on the Antebellum/Civil War Era, which they then preserved, catalogued, transcribed, digitized, and curated in an online exhibit. Not only did the project allow students to gain professional training and experience, but the Lackawanna Historical Society benefited from free digitization of previously uncatalogued materials now available to the public via the Scranton Public Library website.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
