Shared advocacy through data-looking beyond the high cost of journalsJane Nichols
Academic libraries have a long history of advocating for additional funding for their collections. One strategy is to partner with a Faculty Senate Library Committee (FSLC) to take on the cause. In Spring 2011 OSU Libraries began this process by presenting our FSLC with a range of data they could use to tell our story to the Faculty Senate, campus administration, and other stakeholders. We will continue to work with them to advocate for our collections budget. As we explore these issues for our campus, larger questions come up. Which data best promotes libraries? What are additional strategies to pique campus stakeholders’ interest in a library's success? How can assessment data be used to strengthen our case for a better budget? Should libraries focus on our diminished purchasing power or our increased partnerships with faculty?

The Web 2.0 is here and it’s changing everything that we do on the Internet! Library 2.0: A New Version for the Future looks at how library systems and services fit into this user-centric world where dynamic, Web-based tools, online communities, and the ability to personalize everything drive one’s computing environment. In this day-long seminar we will look at how people are using technology (in and out of the library) and explore the the mindset of library users. We will also take a look at specific Web environments, tools, and applications that are currently shaping the information landscape.

Presented at DLF Forum 2015 on October 27th, 2015.
As venues for discourse and creation, social media platforms such as Twitter and Instagram are important source material for scholarly research. Future access to social media data will allow researchers to develop historical assessments based on materials representing the voices of a large and diverse set of participants. Much of this critical and ephemeral content may be lost if cultural heritage institutions are not collecting and preserving it, yet creating and managing these collections presents challenges around collecting mechanisms, curation, legal and ethical issues, and preservation.
This workshop will include the following components:
• A review of technical tools for collecting and guidelines for selecting an approach that works best for your institution and users
• A guided discussion of ethical and legal considerations in taking on this work and parallels with established archival practices
• A review of some existing use cases of libraries' social media data collecting followed by a group discussion of possible community-specific use cases and needs for supporting services.
• A demonstration of possible archival collecting workflows using NCSU Libraries' Social Media Combine collecting system (which includes NCSU Libraries' lentil system for Instagram harvesting and George Washington University's Social Feed Manager for Twitter harvesting). Participants who wish to follow along with their own instance may install it ahead of time.
Participants will leave with an awareness of the major components of a new social media collecting program, including available tools, research use cases, ethical and legal considerations, supporting resources, as well as a better understanding of how to integrate social media into existing practices and workflows. There will be opportunities to share collecting ideas with each other at the end of the workshop.

Technical Services Talks: Fostering Faculty Collaboration through Reorganization and Communication
Speakers: Kyle McCarrell, Augusta State University; LouAnn Blocker, Augusta State University.
Do you wish you could get out from behind your desk and find out what patrons really want? Are you stuck staring at your computer screen wishing your department’s workflow could be more efficient and effective? If this sounds like you, come to this session to hear how one mid-size technical services department (acquisitions, cataloging, serials, and e-resources) at a regional public university of 6,000 students created a leaner, meaner, more focused unit by doing just that. By reorganizing our department and overhauling our workflow to take a more active role in the collection development process, we revitalized relationships with faculty and students to communicate and collaborate with faculty year-round. Focused on small and mid-size libraries, this session will teach attendees practical strategies to create more efficient workflows to better interact with users and hopefully save time and money in the process. Time will be built into the session for attendees to share about similar issues they have faced and their ideas on improving workflows and communication.

Unlocking the Future of Work: Don’t Let the Future Happen to YouAyelet Baron
Too often, people in organizations choose to see and at the same time, choose not to see. We have been working in denial for this past decade and if we want to be ready for the future, we need to take our blinders off and unleash our individual and organizational potential.
You can label it the information era, the connection era, the knowledge era, the sharing economy or whatever suits your fancy. It doesn’t really matter what you call it as long as you are prepared for the shifts that are coming. Leaders and individuals who choose to accept that the work will be different and that any organization can create new markets, are the ones I want to partner with as a trusted advisor. There is a storm coming that we can either start preparing for or deal with the aftermath. What will happen when work-life balance transforms into life-work. Picture this: it’s some time later in the 21st century, what have you created for yourself and/or your organization?
Are you ready to contact me to help you and your organization start doing the hard work of shifting gears? If so. I’d love the opportunity to work with you and your organization as a keynote speaker at a large event, executive management meeting or small group workshops that unleash and ignite innovation.
Future of Work: 2015-2020: Unleashing You. Making the Future Work. Now.Bill Jensen
Groundbreaking global study:
Rather than add to all the hype...
We studied what it will take to make the future actually work.
Among top findings:
• Our leaders are holding back the future
• Engagement, as we view it now, is so horribly incomplete that it is dangerous!
• Get ready for super-sized personal accountability!

Libraries are running two spaces - physical and virtual. The e-Library or library's online presence is not the traditional library website. What new roles and skills are required to run a virtual library?
What does success look like when it comes to library discoverability? Index based discovery systems have seen a dramatic rate of adoption since introduction to the research ecosystem in 2009, with more than 9,000 libraries relying on a discovery system to provide users with a comprehensive index to their offerings. Some issues bar the way to providing this comprehensive view, but many challenges have been overcome through collaboration between libraries, content providers and discovery partners. The NISO ODI initiative began to examine these issues in 2011, and released a best practice in June 2014.
Speakers will highlight examples of successful collaboration, note continued areas of challenge, and provide insight on how the Open Discovery Initiative Conformance Checklists can be used as a mechanism to evaluate content provider or discovery provider conformance with the best practice.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

selection to ordering to receipt to cataloging to
shelf-ready)
2. Maximize acquisitions/cataloging collaboration
3. Capture bibliographic data as far upstream as

2. Use a blend of metadata techniques to:
• Create many paths to your collections (print, licensed,
