The document summarizes the goals and activities of the Duke Libraries User Studies Initiative. The initiative aims to build research skills among librarians, provide a forum for discussion, and encourage collaboration on user studies. As part of the initiative, two user studies were launched - one on cultural anthropology faculty and graduate students, and another on honors researchers. Both studies involved interviews to better understand challenges and improve library services. The benefits of the studies included publicizing existing services and gaining a deeper understanding of user needs. The initiative also created an online toolkit and hopes to establish a cohort of library staff confident in conducting user studies.

This document summarizes a study conducted by Duke University Libraries on the experiences of Black students on campus and with the library. The study found that while Duke and the library were not perceived as actively hostile, systemic bias in curriculum and microaggressions contributed to Black students feeling their belonging was qualified. Black students experienced Duke as preserving white history and spaces reinforced white dominance. However, affinity spaces and person-to-person interactions helped students feel supported. Recommendations included increasing diversity of library staff, dedicating space to Black scholarship, and addressing representation in library spaces.Amazing Archives - Northern Collaboration 2017 Conference

This document discusses a collaboration between librarians and academic skills tutors to develop interventions for improving students' critical writing and reading skills. It outlines resources created by both the tutors and librarians, including sessions on critical reading and writing, as well as a resource on finding academic sources using keywords. A pilot of the librarian's resource found that students felt more confident searching the library catalog after completing it. The document emphasizes the importance of using real-world examples and researching why students may not be completing assigned readings. It also provides strategies for effective collaborative work between librarians and tutors.Watch listen Learn: Understanding the undergraduate research process through ...
For higher education students, learning can happen anytime and anywhere, however not much is known about how students actually conduct research. A User eXperience (UX) approach, which deploys an anthropological lens, has typically focussed on how library users are interacting with space and services. In this paper I will present the findings of an ethnographic study which shifted the traditional focus of UX to understand how students are engaging with the research process. Using participant observation, behavioural maps, student diaries and retrospective interviews, I was provided with unique access that enabled me to capture the behaviours of these students in their own environments. The research examined the practice of undergraduate research both inside and outside the library walls and found that the research process can be influenced by a number of factors including age, experience, work commitments, family, peer, academic and library anxiety.
I was acutely aware of my responsibility as a researcher to build trust and honesty with the students. Working so closely with them enabled me to discover patterns in their research behaviour, discuss their approach to research and identify gaps in support. This was collaborative ethnography; as I observed research practice, I was able to provide instant advice to help them improve their research skills. In addition, I have discussed my findings with academic colleagues and together we have been making improvements to undergraduate study skills modules. This paper will discuss how an ethnographic approach has informed my professional practice and ultimately improved how I deliver research skills support to undergraduate students. I will also reflect on the role ethnography can play in empowering librarians to perform a leading research role within their own institutions.

Enriching the Academic Experience: the Library and Experiential Learning at Middle Tennessee State University
William Black, Christy Groves and Amy York, Middle Tennessee State University
Middle Tennessee State University adopted its experiential learning program as part of the 2006 academic accreditation process. Experiential learning (EXL) merges classroom teaching with the work environment to enhance the overall educational experience. Through EXL, students, faculty and external organizations collaborate to strengthen learning.
The James E. Walker Library has taken a proactive program approach to EXL @ MTSU, through the creation of partnerships with instructional faculty and student groups. Through these partnerships, members of the library faculty have been engaged in a number of entrepreneurial activities to enhance student education and involve the library more directly in the university’s mission to develop educated men and women.
We propose to talk about some of the library’s entrepreneurial partnerships that enhance learning through experience. These programs include initiatives such as the Student Art Partnership which offers the Library as a learning site for art installations that raise student awareness, the Printing Press Project which brings the library’s locally crafted 18th century reproduction printing press into university and county K-12 classrooms, and the Assessment Project which utilizes skills of Management & Marketing and Anthropology students to evaluate library effectiveness across campus.
We will discuss a representative sample of EXL partnerships at MTSU, describe the activities and outcomes, and assess how, by thinking entrepreneurially, the programs have strengthened the library’s relationship with students and brought the library more fully into the educational process.

What is research evidence?
It is time to dispel the myth that only ‘researchers’ or ‘academics’ in the information profession can and should do research. All information professionals have a place in collecting and examining data to improve their services, resources, and spaces. For example, why not use a short questionnaire to find out what your university’s students think of your library’s new app, and then use the results to refine it? This presentation will discuss ‘research evidence’ in library and information settings and explore how it can be used in practice.

New Models for Credit-Bearing Information Literacy Courses
This document summarizes a webinar on new models for credit-bearing information literacy courses. The webinar included presentations from librarians at Boise State University and University at Buffalo. At Boise State, the library course evolved from a self-paced online course to include collaborative projects between the library and writing program. A key collaboration was the PoWeR program, which paired the library course with a writing course. Assessment found student research skills improved through this collaboration. At Buffalo, the library course uses case studies and has expanded to include discipline-specific sections to target different academic programs. The webinar discussed factors driving changes in library instruction and different approaches to credit-bearing information literacy courses.
Session6.2 Cone

It then outlines the history of liaison roles from the prehistoric age focusing on collection development and communication to the modern era with expanded roles in areas like technology support, curriculum involvement, and copyright advising. The rest of the document offers tips, examples, and trends related to key liaison responsibilities and the future of liaison work, emphasizing continued focus on communication, collaboration, and developing user-centered services.
Pre-search to Research: Credo as 'Academic Google'
Howard University librarians Niketha McKenzie, Kimberly Prosper, and Adia Coleman share their strategy for helping students transition from the open web searching they are accustomed to, toward more rigorous, college-level research. They detail how they use Credo to support the concept of pre-search and build familiarity with research databases. By likening Credo to an “Academic Google,” they have been able to gain buy-in from students while demonstrating the value of authoritative resources. Students have reported feeling less frustrated by the research process, and faculty appreciate that the library is providing a guide that helps students perform better.
Library Support Unit Draft
The document discusses the need to update school libraries for 21st century learners. It notes that learning has become more integrated, connected, and self-directed. The traditional roles of libraries and librarians must also evolve to support new pedagogical approaches like collaborative and exploratory learning. It proposes a Libraries Support Unit to centralize administrative functions and free up librarian time for learner-centered activities like developing information fluency and digital skills. The benefits would include an improved learning experience, better integration of libraries into the curriculum, and preparing students for future success.

This document summarizes Duke University's efforts to embed library resources directly into the university's course management system (Blackboard). It details how the library formed a committee to pilot placing a "Ask a Librarian" button in Blackboard courses. This expanded to creating subject-specific library guides accessible through Blackboard. To scale this, the library automated the process of making guides available in all courses by linking course codes to guides through a Django database. This embedded approach increased collaboration between librarians and faculty while providing students easy access to research help and resources directly in their online courses.

This document describes Duke University's efforts to embed library resources directly into the university's course management system (Blackboard). It details how the library formed a committee to pilot placing a "Ask a Librarian" button in Blackboard courses. This expanded to creating subject-specific library guides and automatically including a "Library Guides" button in every Blackboard course. The library uses a Django database to dynamically link the button to the appropriate library guide based on the course subject code. This embedded approach has increased collaboration between librarians and faculty while providing students easy access to research help and resources directly in their online courses.
Know Thy User: Duke Libraries User Studies Initiative
The document summarizes the goals and activities of the Duke Libraries User Studies Initiative. The initiative aims to build skills in user studies among library staff and encourage collaboration through workshops and training events. As part of the initiative, two user studies were launched: a cultural anthropology study to better understand challenges and improve services, and an honors researchers study to understand student research processes and publicize existing services. The benefits of conducting user studies include improved understanding of user needs and publicity of library services. Success will be achieved by developing a cohort of library staff confident in conducting their own user studies.

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.
