In 2006 a group of library and information studies academics and experts from three European universities – Oslo University College in Norway, Tallinn University in Estonia and the University of Parma in Italy - began talks and consultations to develop a Master programme to impart knowledge and skills in digital libraries. The outcome was the formation of the two-year International Master in Digital Library Learning (DILL) programme. After taking in the first batch of 18 students from 16 different countries across the world in 2007, DILL has continued to train different cohorts of varying numbers in the last decade. In this paper, I identify the various stages in DILL’s developmental process following a community of practice framework by (Wenger and Snyder, 2000). Data was drawn primarily from literature including the various DILL websites from the different consortia institutions, combined with a reflection of my own experience of the DILL programme and activities. My analysis of the DILL programme is mainly based on the activities of its first two years, as I was a member of the first batch of DILL students. However, my continuous association with key contacts in the programme also offered useful observations that provided data for this study. While DILL was planned to primarily provide education for the Digital Librarian new professional, specific details of the programme also offer extensive knowledge in other areas including understanding of innovative digital services, interactive digital exhibitions, gamification techniques (such as topic maps), etc. There was also understanding of skills in knowledge management and human resource management, which are still relevant for emerging trends in modern global education and digital information environment. The programme is rich with expert local professors and numerous visiting lecturers who made DILL a unique learning experience.
DILL programme is developing into a virtual community of experts who collaborate from various locations of the world to discuss and share ideas not only on digital library related issues, but also other issues that can enhance the development of members within the community and beyond. DILL provides a useful model for other disciplines where experts seek to collaborate to develop consortia programmes to advance knowledge in their area. The fast developing digital technologies and changing library and information studies environment have resulted in new competencies and skills required of modern digital librarians. As DILL steps into its second decade, the programme may be more effective if its curriculum content is targeted to evenly assess the professional knowledge, generic skills and specific personal competencies of today’s digital librarians.

The document provides an overview of key concepts in open science, open education and online learning, and suggests ways libraries can help address challenges and opportunities in these areas through services, training and collaborative efforts.
“The future depends on what you do today”: evolving subject support in UCD Li...Diarmuid Stokes
University College Dublin (UCD) library website for many years supported its users by providing subject support to over 50 different disciplines, through the development of webpages containing subject lists of databases, useful websites and other related materials. These lists were created and using HTML and had to be individually maintained and developed. This presentation looks at what happened when UCD Library evaluated the effectiveness and sustainability of these resources and how Libguides were used to evolve and manage and extend subject support. This presentation will also look at how Libguides are being used to extend subject support beyond the library website and potential plans for further development.
The Future Depends on What You do Today”: evolving subject support in UCD Lib...UCD Library
Presentation given by Diarmuid Stokes, College Liaison Librarian at University College Library, at the HSLG Annual Conference, May 14-15, 2015 in Athlone, Ireland.
This document summarizes the evolution of subject support on the library website at University College Dublin (UCD) Library. It began with annotated bibliographies on the website in 1997, and grew to include subject portals by 1999. Subject portals declined in usage by 2011. In 2013, UCD Library reintroduced subject guides using LibGuides to replace the old subject portals. LibGuides provided a better interface and allowed content to be added, reused and shared more easily. UCD Library piloted the new LibGuides and saw increasing usage over time. By 2015 there were 42 subject guides and 9 research guides available on LibGuides.
Marie O' Neill explores the expansion of DBS Library's research support services. She discusses key developments during this process including the production of a research development plan, the establishment of a research librarian post, the setting up of an institutional repository and the recent acquisition of Ebsco's Plumx software. The presentation also discusses the impetus, challenges and benefits of this expansion.
The document discusses the evolution of the Information Commons concept and provides a case study of the Li Ka Shing Library at the Singapore Management University. It describes how the library has transformed from a traditional space into an integrated learning environment that supports both individual and collaborative work through facilities like the Collaborative Study Area. Surveys of students showed high usage of this new space and influenced the library to further diversify its environments and utilize technology to support learning anywhere and anytime.

High School to College: Preparing for College Researchbwest2
This document discusses preparing high school students for college-level research. It begins by noting a gap between what high school teachers expect students to know and what college professors expect. The workshop aims to discuss Common Core standards, college research expectations, and strategies to improve high school student research readiness. It outlines faculty research assignment expectations and national ACRL standards. While students are proficient with everyday online research, they struggle with academic research skills like evaluating sources and citing properly. The document suggests long-term and short-term classroom activities as well as collaborating with school librarians to better prepare students before college.

Joining up the dots presentation for lt conference-20100119.amamckie
The document discusses approaches to delivering information literacy (IL) instruction at UCA in a more transformative way. It outlines how IL has traditionally been delivered through discrete sessions but argues for a more integrated approach where students actively engage with and transform information to achieve changes in knowledge. Feedback from students and staff supports embedding IL into discipline-specific learning. The goal is for students to formulate their own research questions and positions by making sense of information in a way that reflects their emerging views.
This document summarizes challenges faced by academic libraries and strategies for addressing them. It notes that academic libraries have changed more in the past 20 years than the previous 200 due to technology. Libraries face risks of reduced relevance if their value is not effectively communicated. Students now begin research with search engines rather than libraries. The document outlines best practices such as setting expectations for cultural change, collaborating with faculty, and investing in research support services.
The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Library and Archives team implemented successful strategies to engage RCN staff across the UK and increase their use of library services. Previously viewed as only for members, the library implemented regional contacts and personal approaches to provide informal information literacy opportunities responding to workplace needs. This poster outlines these strategies for engaging staff, including dedicated library contacts in each RCN office and informal information literacy sessions.
This document summarizes the challenges and changes that have occurred at McMaster University Library over the past several years under its new University Librarian. It describes how the library has transformed its services, resources, facilities, and staffing structure to better support the evolving needs of today's learners through innovative initiatives and partnerships. Key updates include the creation of 7 new librarian positions, investments in staff training, the adoption of new technologies like Second Life reference and an open source ILS, and the development of new learning spaces on campus.

This document summarizes existing research on evaluating online information literacy tutorials (OILTs). It finds that the most common evaluation methods are usability testing and pre- and post-tests. It also finds that each study evaluates a specific OILT rather than using standardized evaluation criteria. The document then proposes categorizing OILTs in different ways, such as modular vs. non-modular and use of text vs. video, before developing comprehensive evaluation standards. It concludes that OILTs should be evaluated according to these categories to ensure elements like appropriate length, interactive components, and accuracy of resources.

Why is the degree necessary or
important to the region?
5.1 Accreditation
Need for parity of qualification to support
international mobility.
Increasing interest in international LIS collaboration.
5.2 Role of Professional Associations
Issues of standards and quality for the curriculum
across courses and states
Changing nature of the profession broadens the
professional associations involved.

Editor's Notes
THANKSVanessa Middleton, Petroleum Institute – impetus for important communication, collaboration and problem solving!Dr Jassim and AUE for hospitality.Nedap, Event SponsorWorked for 15 years as librarian in Australia – public libraries, state libraries, government departments. Not since 1993. In 20 years things have moved on….
Worked in a university where kangaroos were commonly eating grass around the library building…Sunshine Coast University – a great part of the world!
Vanessa has asked us to answer specific questions relating to our country of interest:So, what IS the changing LIBRARY ENVIRONMENT internationally and what does a LIBRARIAN look like in the 21st century?We must look internationally because….. Context, globalization, mobility of the workforce – look at us here in the UAE!REF for quotation: http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/research/publications/library/2010/2010-03.pdf?urlm=162937
LIDA – Libraries in the Digital AgeReferences available at the end of this session.
Changes to informationThe digital revolution shows no signs of slowing.Technological advances have changed existing forms of information – increasing amounts of information - varied and digitizedChanges to general characteristics of younger scholarsDigital learners look for self-directed and collaborative learningIncreasing (above 50%) American teenagers are content creatorsImmediate access to information from the desktop is taken for grantedMobile connection to technology is risingCharacteristics of researchers as they affect library servicesIncreasing need for academic librarians to become embedded within the whole research lifecycle – requires subject specialization and different skill sets (e.g. Understanding research grants/managing collaboration)Less people physically visit the libraryAll information seekers looking for more functionality in library systems (seamless access to resources)
International research and discussion papersProfessional associations and peak bodies
ROLE OF THE LIBRARIAN IN THE 21STCENTURY?Job titles from analysis of job advertisements, and reference to the literatureNOTE re Anne Wolpert, Library Manager at MIT in SLA 2013 said to me “we don’t hire any librarians now who can’t code”
ROLE OF THE LIBRARIAN IN THE 21STCENTURY?Managers – not everyone is a managerAppliers of technologies – MUST be aware.Skills – Broad, flexible and changing.Be user focused - Establish partnerships of equality– both bring something to the table! Both librarians and users have the ability/responsibility to create content (e.g. tagging in catalogs)Personal competencies - Personality traits more important than skills??Librarians must collaborate – work as a team. Build relationships outside the library context.
ROLE OF THE LIBRARIAN IN THE 21STCENTURY?What is Librarian 2.0? All about technology?Boundaries between IT professional and LIS professional rapidly narrowing.Less to do with technology and more to do with quality transferrable skills and interpersonal abilities? The value in being a “technology translator” rather than in-depth practitioner (a bridge translating the techno –geek),I would say that to understand research and the important partnerships that librarians can forge with researching faculty is probably more important, especially in higher education, but that’s up for debate Intertwining of the changing roles of librarians and library patrons – a need for collaboration and partnership rather than a service relationship. To do this, librarians have to offer relevant and important skills e.g. research knowledgeSome would say that teaching and IL is the most important role....REF for quotation: http://units.sla.org/division/dpht/division_info/travel-presentations/feng_essay.pdf
LIS EDUCATION in the 21st CENTURY Some of the issues identified…Now a much faster pace of change- Dynamic curricula for the demands of an increasingly broad and diverse employment landscape.Now everyone needs a range of new skills and traits, not just some.Competition with other disciplines involved in the management of informationIssue of aging LIS educators worldwide– In a major recent Australian study of LIS academics, almost 56% were at least 50 years old, and less than 5% were 30 years old or younger.Are they out of touch with new skills? Too far removed from practical application? Not savvy enough with technology?Ongoing PD is needed! Quotation from: Gerolimos, M. (2009). Skills developed through library and information science education. Library Review, 58(7), 527-540. doi: 10.1108/00242530910978217, p.527.
Makes my job easier! Evidence-based recommendations.Research included LIS students, workforce and educators. Data collection involved mixed methods.
Characteristics of the programsGreat diversity of LIS professional program content – interesting to note student recommendations for content and skillsFrom:Partridge, H., Hanisch, J., Hughes, H., Henninger, M., Carroll, M., Combes, B., . . . Yates, C. (2011). Re-conceptualising and re-positioning Australian library and information science education for the 21st century (pp. 161). Sydney: Australian Learning & Teaching Council. P.39
Program Evolution Multiple qualification pathways (TABLE NEXT SLIDE)Boundaries between professional and para-professional roles within the industry have blurred over time.Traditional employment landscape is extensive – academic, school, public, state, national libraries (all strongly supported in Australia). Special libraries and information centers (law, health, medicine)…More recently, e-landscape has led to the creation of new employment opportunities e.g. knowledge management, records management, content and data management, web development… need for LIS graduates to be equipped with a new range of transferrable skills?Call for high level of theoretical knowledge, and a demand for practical skills.Program length and costsCosts vary between Australian nationals and international students. Around A$30,000 for Australian nationals to complete a Masters Program.Masters courses 1.5 (more common) – 2 years full time.
Multiple qualification pathways:VERY FEW Masters by Research or PhD course offered – implications for research support skills for academics, and for researching ability of LIS professionals both as educators and as workers in the field – therein lies academic credibility!From:Partridge, H., Hanisch, J., Hughes, H., Henninger, M., Carroll, M., Combes, B., . . . Yates, C. (2011). Re-conceptualising and re-positioning Australian library and information science education for the 21st century (pp. 161). Sydney: Australian Learning & Teaching Council. P.22
DEALT WITH IN OTHER PAPER - Here in the UAE standards have not been established – how would you convince the ministry of its importance? AccreditationRegarded as an important issue – authenticated standards provided by professional associations.“If it’s not accredited it’s pretty useless.” P89Participation with Quality Assurance Agencies (UK, Bologna, Europe)Professional AssociationsThe Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA) has been the dominant professional association to review curriculum and recognize courses “allowing” graduates to achieve professional status. … now multi-disciplinary nature of the profession has meant consideration of other professional associations e.g. Australian Society of Archivists, Australian Computer Society, Records and Information Management Professionals Australiasia. Issues of standards and quality for the curriculum – pathways to employment are and will continue to broaden.
