1. The document discusses shifting the focus of teaching web evaluation skills from website formatting checklists to teaching critical thinking and content evaluation. Checklists focus on surface features rather than content, which is what determines a website's relevance.
2. The author proposes starting web evaluation instruction by asking questions like "What is this?", "How does it relate to my need?", and "Where does this come from?" rather than immediately asking "Can I trust it?". This helps students learn to evaluate content on their own.
3. An example quiz is provided that aims to engage students by asking questions they may not be able to answer, to break through inflated confidence levels and spark critical thinking about evaluating online information sources.

What does it mean to be information literate for college?
This document defines what it means to be information literate in college. It explains that college research is more complex than everyday searches and requires determining the extent of needed information, accessing it effectively and evaluating sources critically. Unlike everyday opinions, opinions in academic work must be supported by evidence from peer-reviewed research. Peer-review ensures opinions are based on verifiable facts by having experts in a field review research before publication. Students are directed to use peer-reviewed journals, books and databases accessible through the library for college-level research.

Linda Treffinger presentation for Univ Press as Digital Pub
The document discusses strategies for improving the discoverability and visibility of eBooks. It summarizes findings from various surveys that show eBooks can be difficult for users to find due to a lack of targeted discovery tools and their exclusion from existing library discovery frameworks. The document proposes four principles to address this: socialization, openness, integration, and repurposing. Socialization involves cultivating expert recommendations and delivering ancillary content. Openness means understanding search engines and embracing standards. Integration is joining forces with ejournals. And repurposing encourages reuse of content segments.

Digital Empathy: Creating Safe Spaces Online
This document discusses creating safe spaces online through digital empathy and user-centered design. It introduces Deirdre, Carrie, and Carl who are librarians focused on making libraries more inclusive. The document then covers empathic design theory, using qualitative research methods like building rapport and active listening to understand user pain points and opportunities. It suggests researching with empathy, adapting based on user needs, and designing with compassion. Next, it discusses analyzing research findings holistically and considering user expectations, interface structure/content, and language choices to communicate effectively. The document provides exercises to practice qualitative research skills and turn findings into design ideas using an idea board and sketching. It closes by emphasizing resources for continuing this important work.
Empathetic Design: Creating Safe Spaces
User research often focuses on the usability of online or physical spaces. We look at search traffic, run usability testing, and track how users navigate our spaces. Those results inform design decisions through the lens of physical design or information architecture. This is important, but it doesn’t encompass everything a user needs.
This session will focus on the other component of user experience design and user research: how to create spaces where users feel safe. Users bring their anxieties and stressors with them to our physical and online spaces, but informed design choices can help to ameliorate that stress. This will ultimately lead to a more positive interaction between your institution and your users.
We will discuss how to build empathy for your users within your design team, how to use the traditional UX research methods to inform empathetic design, and practical applications of empathetic design in online and physical spaces.

Session Two: 'Expanding Pathways to Publishing Careers,' was held June 13, 2024.THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
