The document announces an event called Maker Faire Rome that will take place from October 3-6, 2013 in Rome, Italy. It is a festival celebrating invention, creativity, and resourcefulness that brings together enthusiasts called "Makers" who enjoy hands-on projects and sharing knowledge. Makers use various tools and techniques, both traditional and modern, to build things for fun or necessity. The event will feature exhibits, workshops, talks, performances, and food related to topics like robotics, electronics, Arduino, design, 3D printing, science, and more. It also includes a call for Makers to submit proposals to participate.

The document discusses how libraries are transforming their spaces to meet the needs of 21st century students. It notes that today's students are more social, like to multitask, prefer hands-on learning, and are experimenters. Some libraries are reconfiguring their computer spaces, creating collaborative rooms, and incorporating new technologies like interactive tables. The key lessons are to include students in the redesign process and support mobility and interactivity.

Connecting with Patrons, Highlighting the Collections, and Learning about the Library: Low Cost High-Impact Makerspaces in U.S. Art Libraries This paper will demonstrate the benefits of makerspaces for art libraries, highlight art libraries where “making” is happening, and provide practical examples of ways libraries can create high-impact low-cost makerspaces that engage and educate their communities.

Partners in research: outside the library, inside the infrastructure

Partners in Research : Outside the Library, Inside the Infrastructure

Saskia Scheltjens

This document discusses the evolving role of libraries in supporting digital scholarship and research infrastructures. It notes that digital humanities involves using computing technologies in humanities research and that research infrastructures aim to enhance digitally-enabled research. The document suggests libraries can support researchers by managing data, providing embedded librarians, and engaging with creation and sharing of information resources. However, libraries' engagement with research infrastructures has been low; increased involvement is needed. The library's success depends on engaging researchers in a partnership approach.

Open Access has seen increased acceptance in recent years, yet academic libraries continue to struggle with supporting and growing the Open Access institutional repositories (IRs) and increasing faculty awareness of and buy-in for Open Access and related scholarly communication issues. In this presentation, we propose a reframing of Open Access and scholarly communication strategies using the twelve principles of permaculture, an environmental design theory that provides a sustainable architecture for self-maintained agricultural systems modeled from naturally occurring ecosystems (Hemenway, 2009). Such an approach is beneficial for many reasons. Permaculture emphasizes maximum benefit from minimum effort and resources, which resonates with libraries that face increased strain on budgets and personnel. Further, the theory encourages that waste of resources and efforts be eliminated completely, which can guide libraries as they move towards maximizing efficiency in a changing academic culture. Permaculture also stresses that practitioners respect the diversity of the smaller ecosystems that make up the bigger picture, a principle which OA advocates and humanists are now advocating. We will share these insights and other such distillations of the permaculture design principles and offer our map to how they can be applied to Open Access and scholarly communication endeavors as we continue to make our path toward sustainable dissemination and preservation practices of today’s research output.

In the 21st century there has been a resurgence of the do-it-yourself movement. Libraries are becoming laboratories in which students learn to think, explore, and meet other like-minded individuals outside the classroom. Although makerspaces in public libraries have received more attention, many academic, museum, and special libraries are seeing the benefits of makerspaces. Makerspaces provide opportunities for self-driven hands-on learning, which encourages creative thinking and problems solving skills. This article will demonstrate the benefits of makerspaces for art libraries, highlight art libraries where “making” is happening, and provide practical examples of ways libraries can create high-impact low-cost makerspaces that engage and educate their communities.

CONUL Conference

The document discusses a collaboration between the UCD Library and student digital ambassadors. It describes three projects the ambassadors worked on over two months: creating an orientation video, contributing to social media, and conducting a focus group on digital resources. Feedback from the ambassadors found the experience valuable but suggested more direction from the library and clearer goals. The library staff conclude they would do another collaboration but may need to produce content in-house instead of relying on volunteers.

Defining the User Experience of Emotion & Content

Jason Wishard

Challenge We as user experience practitioners are faced daily with helping users to not only get to the content they want, but recall and share that content with others. Objectives Explain the differences and similarities between different recollection and sharing models and how they impact the user experience of content. Direction Content used to be about the user going and "getting it", now we rely more and more on content that we can retrieve over and over and content that is not only sent to us based upon what we tell a system to send to us, but what our friends, family and colleagues recommend to us. Approach * Why we use "Liking", "Favoriting", "Starring" and "Bookmarking" * What the difference are between these different models and the perception they carry * How these different models impact what a user will do with your content

What do they know? What do they think they know? - Houlihan & Lindsay

IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)

This document discusses a study on international students' research skills and library experience at a diverse liberal arts college with engineering programs. The study used a mixed methods approach, including a 20-question quiz with open and closed questions administered to 29 students, as well as focus groups with 15 students. The quiz assessed students' knowledge of concepts like peer review, abstracts, and using the library catalog. Focus group questions asked about library instruction experiences and the research process. Findings showed students knew concepts like peer review but lacked skills in areas like subject headings. Students recommended improvements like subject-specific workshops and research process guides. The results were shared with writing and subject faculty and librarians to improve instruction.

OEB12: Enhancing Participatory Culture

Ilona Buchem

This document discusses a project called iCollaborate that aimed to design international collaboration using social and mobile media. As part of the project, students from universities in Berlin, Manchester, and Auckland became "Mobile Reporters" who used social media like Twitter, blogs, and YouTube to document their field research on uses of social and mobile media in their cities and share their findings across cultures. The goals of the project were to enable participation and collaboration, engage students in co-creating curriculum, and facilitate social connections between students.
