Abstract:
Users are increasingly self-reliant in their information seeking behavior. Where is the place for the personal interaction with librarians in this new paradigm? Join an active conversation to explore (a) What the DIY user behaviors are, (b) how libraries can respond to them in terms of new services, fiscal and personnel resources, and technologies, and (c) how to leverage technology to create online or face-to-face mediation opportunities that would be welcomed by users.

Shaping the academic library of the future: adapt, empower, partner, engage
The tradition of the Stellenbosch University Annual Library Symposium of being a platform for discussing new library and information services and developments will continue at the 14th Annual Library Symposium in November 2016. The discussion will be turned to the shaping of the academic library of the future. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of adapting to users’ needs, adapting to new roles as librarians, adapting as a library, empowerment of staff and clients and the importance of partnerships and engagement.
The theme is partly based on the recent OCLC report, Shaping the Library to the life of the user: adapting, empowering, partnering, engaging. In this report it becomes clear that “research and learning needs are changing. Higher education is reconfiguring. As a result of these massive changes, the library must pivot and adapt”. The following core themes are mentioned in this report: to empower users, to empower the library, form partnerships and to engage the campus community. The report advises libraries to be able to “move from offering a fixed set of services to a ‘constant beta’ mode of service evolution” .
Three different sessions will focus on the following themes, all related to the shaping of the academic library of the future:
Digital innovation: Topics of this session may include Augmented Reality, Artificial Intelligence, Research Data Management, Big Data, E-learning, Digital Humanities, Next Generation Systems.
Collaboration / Partnerships : Partnerships with OCLC, SANLIC and other consortia as well as other collaboration possibilities will be discussed.
The user experience: Academic staff, researchers and students of local universities will share their expectations as users of academic libraries.

These are the slides I used for a UTS Shapeshifters event on Creative Futures. I was talking about the future of academic libraries, particularly our own and our role in a creative digital future.
I should explain more about the 3rd slide. The things listed on that slide are often forgotten or discounted in the blind pursuit of efficiency or traditional KPIs. For libraries, these things (i.e. delight, surprise, engagement, serendipity and curiosity) are at least as important and should not be forgotten, dismissed or left until later.

Back by popular demand! Each year, a number of new reports about public libraries are produced by organizations like Pew, OCLC, Library Journal, The Aspen Institute, and others. These reports contain valuable information that can help us plan, develop services, and improve existing services, but unfortunately, few of us have the time to read every single one. The goal of this session is to help attendees get an overview of those reports and their implications for our work. Each panelist will share a summary of a report they believe is significant and discuss how they have used or will use the information at their library. Attendees will be encouraged to share other reports and insights that have mattered to them, too!

Behavior studies show that more and more people visiting libraries want to find materials and information on their own. This presents a challenge for librarians: how can they best help these self-directed readers? While many libraries use traditional strategies with book displays and bibliographies, today’s readers need more. This webinar will share the latest results of patron browsing behaviors and offer innovative practices to help you engage patrons with passive programming ideas and self-directed pathways.

The Art of the Possible: Makerspaces and Academic Libraries 可能性的艺术:创客空间和高校图书馆Patrick "Tod" Colegrove
Keynote address at the Information Technology in Education itie 2016 conference held in Wuhan, China:
On the surface, makerspace and academic libraries might seem an incongruous match. The ever-changing, and seemingly chaotic environment of makerspace contrasts starkly with the stereotype of the quiet and reserved academic library. Sharing lessons learned while transforming an underutilized branch library into a vibrant hub of collaborative and problem-based learning, Colegrove explores emergent roles of makerspaces in university libraries, effecting learning, teaching, and serving the general community. Rather than an artifact of a bygone era, specific examples drawn from the DeLaMare Library at the University of Nevada, Reno, demonstrate that libraries today can offer a powerful platform of transformation that crosses disciplinary and organizational boundaries. Equipped with non-traditional technology such as 3D printers and laser cutters, and staffed with personnel skilled at catalyzing active learning and engagement, discovery, innovation, and collaboration become everyday occurrences across the physical commons of the library. A depth of learning occurs in parallel with classroom instruction as the adjunct spaces and resources of the library become intertwined with the classroom, amplifying the efforts of both. Discover how learning and discovery lead naturally to outreach, innovation, and entrepreneurship in this motivational exploration of practice in a 21st-century university library.
How Makerspaces are Changing the Way We Teach and Learn 创客空间如何改变着我们的教学方式Patrick "Tod" Colegrove
The DeLaMare Library at the University of Nevada, Reno, was one of the first academic libraries in the United States to implement makerspace – a library where novel services such as 3D printing and scanning became routine. Equipped with non-traditional library technology ranging from laser cutters to micro-programmables and virtual reality hardware, and staffed with personnel skilled at catalyzing active learning and engagement, the library has witnessed an explosion of creativity: discovery, innovation, and collaboration have become everyday occurrences. Named one of the most interesting makerspaces in America, highlights of the transformation are shared by the library’s director: Colegrove explores emergent roles of makerspaces in university libraries, effecting learning, teaching, and serving the general community in a revitalized role that goes beyond catalyzing learning and discovery to innovation and entrepreneurship.
The DeLaMare Library at the University of Nevada, Reno, was one of the first university libraries in the United States to implement makerspace. Equipping the space with non-traditional library technology such as 3D printers and laser cutters, and enabling and supporting staff to catalyze active learning and engagement, the library was quickly revitalized as a hub of discovery, innovation, and collaboration. Learning and discovery became everyday occurrences across the physical commons of the library, leading to outreach and engagement with the greater community. Named one of the most interesting makerspaces in America, highlights of the transformation are shared by the library’s director: Colegrove explores the transformation from a design thinking standpoint, illustrating design principles in practice, the secret behind the critical success of recent initiatives in the DeLaMare Library. In a train-the-trainer approach, participants will be guided through a collaborative design thinking session centered around the design and creation of makerspace within their own libraries. Participant take-aways will include the specific design framework, examples of the framework in practice, and accomplishment of first steps toward creating and supporting makerspace within their own community.

The adjunct spaces and resources of the library become intertwined with both the classroom and industry beyond the university’s walls, augmenting and amplifying the efforts of both; an explosion of learning and discovery powers innovation and entrepreneurship as the best of the academic and industrial worlds collide on the neutral common ground of the university library.

ICERI2016, Seville, Spain - The Library in Support of the Next Generation Cla...Patrick "Tod" Colegrove
Over the past decades much has shifted across the landscape of higher education. In the library, print resources are transitioning transitioned to electronic formats and availability, leaving classroom instructors questioning the ongoing relevance of the physical library to the academic mission. This paper explores new and emerging roles of the library in support of the next generation classroom, tracing the evolution of one academic science and engineering library, and sharing lessons learned while transforming an underutilized branch library into a vibrant hub of collaborative and problem-based learning. Within the physical commons of the library, equipped with non-traditional technology such as 3D printers and laser cutters, and staffed with personnel skilled at leveraging that technology in support of active learning and engagement, a depth of learning can occur in parallel with classroom instruction. The adjunct spaces and resources of the library become intertwined with the classroom, augmenting and amplifying the efforts of both. Emergent best practices are identified, along with promising results of early collaborations between the library and the classroom.
A presentation at the UNESCO-UNIR ICT & Education Latam Congress 2016:
Educational practice continues to evolve, and the supporting organizations with it. From roots grounded deeply in constructivist learning theory, makerspace in libraries is emerging to provide institutional support. Examples of activity associated from one of the first movers of the movement are presented, the product of leveraging technology as catalyst for active learning and engagement within and beyond the physical commons of the library. Specific actions and outcomes are presented; driven by curiosity and engagement on the part of the learner, blending of formal and informal learning appears a natural result, as does innovation and entrepreneurship.
As libraries continue to take on exciting new roles and provide new services in their communities, the need for leadership on all levels within the organization increases. Opportunities for the development of new skills abound, going far beyond management and including interpersonal, project management, consensus building, and even vision/mission creation. Over the span of a few short years the DeLaMare Library at the University of Nevada, Reno, leveraged an approach of open dialogue while bypassing traditional hierarchical boundaries to transform an underutilized branch library into a vibrant hub of innovation, research, and entrepreneurship. Join Tod Colegrove and Tara Radniecki as they share engaging stories, practical tips, and rich insights gained.
Makerspaces in Libraries: Technology as catalyst for better learning, better ...Patrick "Tod" Colegrove
Across disciplines, the practice of education continues to evolve; supporting organizations such as the library are responding by reworking existing and developing new practices. With roots grounded deeply in constructivist learning theory, the emerging practice of makerspaces in libraries is proving an effective step in that evolution. Examples of associated active learning activity at one such library, an early adopter and first mover among academic libraries in adopting and integrating makerspace in libraries, are presented. The product of leveraging technology as catalyst for active learning and engagement within and beyond the physical commons of the library, a blending of formal and informal learning, accented by increased innovation and entrepreneurship across disciplinary and organizational boundaries, appears a natural result.
A pioneer for makerspaces in academic settings shares how it is sparking imagination and innovation in many ways: from Lego and puzzle kits throughout the library, to 3D printers and laser cutters to design workshops and hack-a-thons. It shares the resources, services, and outreach services that have led students and faculty onto the path of greater innovation and scholarship. Speakers share their experiences on why and how we can get started, as well as challenges and solutions. They also share strategic vision for the future on the development of the makerspace as incubator for young entrepreneurs and how this could fundamentally change how higher education provides a new context for students gaining real-life experience, job skills, and connect what they are passionate about to what they are learning.
Interested in holding a successful hackathon? From the Land-Grant University standpoint, hackathons are all about the learning, discovery, and engagement mission. This presentation shares insights from experience gained over several years hosting hackathons in an academic library environment. Presented March 8, 2016, at the Computers in Libraries 2016 conference in Washington DC.
For thousands of years libraries have been connecting people and technology; makerspace in libraries offers seemingly unlimited potential for springboarding learning, discovery, innovation, and entrepreneurship. How much is real, and how much is hype? From 3D printers and laser cutters to microprocessors and robotics toolkits, hear examples of everything that's gone wrong-and the things that have gone right that make it all worthwhile.
Panel, all-day pre conference workshop at the Internet Librarian 2015 Conference in Monterey, California. Presentation of successful implementations of makerspace in libraries, and getting stakeholders onboard to participate in the discussion and implementation of makerspace and rapid prototyping services as part of the library repertoire.
Two libraries share their virtual, hacked, and successful journeys. UMR is a new campus with a totally virtual library. Students conduct research exclusively online. The librarian’s role, instead of being diminished by the absence of books, has increased in importance and urgency. Teaching students to access information and disseminate its importance is the focus of information literacy for UMR’s campus. At DeLaMare, the library went from being full of books (and no students) to a vibrant knowledge hub. Incorporating maker resources and encouraging a hacking mentality, DLM successfully changed its library culture from passive to passionate. The staff’s dedication to the success of their students created an organic space where students learn, make, hack, discover, geek out, and hang out. Adopting the maker culture helped DLM become a central figure in the university’s mission for excellence in teaching and learning.
An inspiring future for academic libraries - a presentation at the Academic L...Patrick "Tod" Colegrove
Libraries are thinking beyond the box—collaborative areas are opening up in spaces formerly devoted to densely packed bookstacks, and academic libraries are experimenting with widely expanded roles and forms of knowledge creation. Rather than a future where the library has been outmoded, join Tod for an inspirational and exciting romp: from library as maker space to partner in entrepreneurial enterprise; third place and home away from home, to home of hackathons, science and maker faires. As the pace of change accelerates, with new tools, opportunities, and potentially disruptive technology appearing almost daily, is this a brave new world of library practice or a return to libraries' roots?

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

User behavior has changed
16. • Ask-an-expert sites (e.g., WikiAnswers) showed the
largest five- year growth—136% increase. The
frequency of use increased as well. The majority of
college students who used these sites did so on an as-
needed basis in 2005; now 30% search for answers at
least monthly.
• College students are asking experts for help; are they
asking librarians? Our survey results indicate that only
a few are using online librarian question services—
10% in 2010 vs. 8% in 2005. The number of academic
libraries offering online reference services increased
more than 10% from 2004 to 2008 (NCES).

Users prefer self-service
even in reference /research
17. • In the era of information scarcity
• Information was hard to find, obtain, access.
• This problem is solved by librarians‟
mediation.
• Libraries identify, acquire, organize, and
provide access to information.
• Mediation by librarians was necessary for
identifying and accessing hard-to-find
information efficiently.
• Great value was created by the mediation
between library patrons and library staff.
Old paradigm
19. But now,
information is abundant.
And we are so much more
capable information
consumers with the Web.

DIY – Users’ mindset today
21. • Not unique to library use
• Common phenomenon influenced by the automation of
everyday service that we experience as a consumer.
• WWW + Knowledge = DIY
• Who knows more about how to best print your
digital photo?
You or the person at Walgreens photo service?
• Can you file tax yourself rather than hiring an
accountant?
Yes, and it might be faster and more convenient!
• The line between experts and hobbyists is becoming
more and more blurry.
• Example: Etsy, Flickr, Instagram, etc.
DIY mindset - background
23. • Avoiding contact with the library staff unless
necessary
• Using an alternative to traditional library services
• Giving up on time-consuming procedures
• Prefers self-service
• Practicing „Satisfice‟
• Wanting to learn by doing, not by sitting and
listening
• Appreciation for tools that help them do the
things that they want to do by themselves
(e.g. LibX)
DIY user behavior at libraries
24. • Self-checkout machines
• Drive-through windows
• Vending machines with books and DVDs
• Self-registration for library cards
• Self-scheduling group study room and computer
use
• Self-pickup of holds
• Self-directed printing
• Self-service course reserves management by
faculty
• Convenience and empowerment for patrons
• Staff efficiency for libraries
Moving in the right direction…
25. But our main message
is unchanged.
“Come to the Library !”
“Talk to Librarians !”
26. • „Ask a Librarian‟
• Reference desk
• Classroom instruction
• Literature search
• Library workshop
“ Let us help you.”
(=Go through us/ gatekeeping)
27. • Attractions to draw more people to the
library?
• E-book readers, Starbucks, 3D printer…
• Improve the library‟s physical space?
• Create more contact opportunities online?
• Ask a Librarian, Text a Librarian!
• Embedded into the curriculum
• Librarian presence in the LMS
• More classroom instruction
Still operating
in the old paradigm
28. • Help is less and less sought out where
information is abundant.
• “Can I just figure thist out by myself?”
• ”Do I have time for this?”
• “Is this something I must go through?”
• “Can I do it later?”
• “It sounds boring… ”
Lukewarm responses …
29. • Interaction-oriented service is likely to to be received
poorly because patrons are less likely to initiate it.
• Librarians‟ mediation or assistance is often not
necessary for library patrons identifying and accessing
information.
• And if any information system requires human
mediation or instruction, that may well make a patron
think that the system is inefficient.
• Users expect efficient systems that allow them to
serve themselves to meet their information needs.
Kim (2011b).
In spite of our best intentions
30. Why?
Because now,
what is precious and scarce
is
information
people’s time and attention.
31. • “I don‟t think education is about centralized
instruction anymore; rather, it is the process
establishing oneself as a node in a broad
network of distributed creativity.”

Learning is changing…
33. Library as a warehouse
Passive help center (Kim, 2011a)
34. Be where people are.
Be sought after; don’t run after.

35. Circulate books & journals.
Look up things that are had to find.
Help then when asked
Teach them proper research resources & methods.
Old paradigm: no longer relevant
36. Let’s show beautiful and
awesome things instead.

Takeaways & Next Steps
Be part of their information ecosystem .Improve patrons’ information (research) workflow.Push out programs and products that draws attention.Be sought after by users; don’t run after them.
You’re looking at essentially all of the open/collaborative study space that existed across the over 22,500 square feet space of the library when I was hired into DLM in 2010.Note the photo was taken mid-day/week during the Spring semester; not unusually empty at the time. =/
# students/# librarians = 3,363:1# courses/# librarians: 1,477We were going to have to do this the old-fashioned way: one person at a time.
We _do_ have a “microkitchen” – left behind when staff relocated onto the public floors.Trust is a powerful thing: toward the end of the semester, a female engineering student told me (gruffly): “Hey – thanks for trusting us enough to let us put our food in there <the fridge>”; my response: “thanks for trusting us not to eat it!”
Have/want a coffee shop in your library? We’re not there yet, but…
Image on left: an Arduino-based DIY breathalyzer. Recently added 12 kits; have been unable to get the initial two back into the library!
First out of the printer: a yellow ducky was the print demo.Second out? That turbine blade – the printer was barely out of the box when several teams of senior projects engineering students converged; we were barely able to save their project.Impact: broad, across the CoS & CoE. Makers, including BridgeWire.
Note the mixing of librarians/staff/customers in the snapshot of the mini maker event, top right-hand side. - anecdote, “DLM>KC” buttons appeared the last time I went to the ALA national conference… - anecdote, “Clever Girl”/end-of-semester national merit scholar
Driven exclusively by listening to the crowd. Each one a success – gotta like the hit rate.
Aka crowdsourcing.The previous slides? Not my ideas – and yet a huge library “win”.Ryan Emerson Johnson (“Ryan of Libraria”) – a recent MLIS grad at Syracuse University – points out (“Crowdsourcing and Library 2.0’)by definition “the crowd will always contain more experts than your organization.” Leverage that fact!Listen + implement early & often. Perpetual beta.
We share this in common: the sure knowledge that the library _is_ a very exciting place.How can we draw these kids in and get them “all sugared up” on library resources, learning, and knowledge creation?
Empty walls instant collaboration areas!Note the time progression – team starting at one side works through/around other groups that come and go, making use of at least three whiteboard walls…Expect pushback at the idea of painting whiteboard walls. Two points: the fact that writing on walls is verboten is the value, and 2) it’s paint – if it doesn’t work out, you can simply repaint. - cleanup is trivial; microfiber cloth, dampened with water if needed. - initially 1,000 square feet; not enough. Added another 1,500 this Summer.
Note the continuum: from private, to semi-private, to fully open/public collaboration areas.Would you want to go into a completely private collaboration room with someone you barely know? ;)

A “crime of opportunity”, the atrium display led in relatively short order to a significant donor/community outreach event.So well-received it had to be hosted in the “mother ship” library on campus…
Powerful stuff. If we’re open, allowing ourselves to display vulnerability and have a genuine interest, magic happens.Note that in order to support the learning mission of the library, it is _critical_ that the environment be socially conducive to discussions.
Top right: Wordpress Developers – over a half-dozen were present; adopted Lilli Brant room as the “Developer’s Den”.Cost: zero. (except for being willing to come in and open the library on a day it wouldn’t otherwise be open.)Impact: Computer Sciences & Engineering, Journalism, bloggers across campus and the local community – strong presence from local businesses.Newsletteritem: Reno-Tahoe WordCamp 2011: "Amazing turnout, tons of knowledge, great people"DeLaMare Library was the proud co-host (with the JCSU) of this year's Reno-Tahoe WordCamp which brought 200 people to campus including eight WordPress core developers from as far away as New Zealand. A "WordCamp" is a two-day community-sponsored conference that centers around discussions related to the WordPress blogging/website development platform. By all accounts the event was a great success. DeLaMare was a hotbed of web development activity; check out the recorded sessions and photos.The WordCamp events hosted in DeLaMare yesterday was the second major event hosted in the library this year; roughly similar numbers at any given time as we saw at the "Expressions…" event, but with much less coming/going – gate counts indicated around 121 people, spread across simultaneous tracks on the third and second floors, and in Lilli Brant. Although the event was supposed to wrap by 5pm, they were "so in the zone" I wasn't able to get out of here until nearly 8pm; it's clear we're hitting the mark with part of our core demographi
We need to get over the fear of the “creepy treehouse” already. They’re mentioning it _so_ you can overhear; the test is whether or not you’ll take them up on the offer.Over 88 slices of pie served; an estimated 150 students and faculty.Cost: $45 (Costco)Impact: Predominantly Math and sciences.
Connaway et al; a voice of reason in several foundational articles over the past 5-10 years…The second quote is from an interview with Kickstarter founder; would anyone _seriously_ argue to preserve the status quo?
