These slides accompany a paper presented at ACRL 2013. In this paper I propose three criteria for selecting library impact research methods including creating credible connections between library use and student learning outcomes, getting behind the numbers to answer how and why questions of library impact, and working at scale. Examples illustrating these criteria are drawn from recent projects using the Understanding Library Impacts protocol.

Okay, so the best way to find out something is to ask someone. But what's the best way to ask so that you get an answer to the question that you meant to ask and not to the question they thought that you asked? Join Kathryn Brockmeier, Nebraska Library Commission Research Analyst, for some tips and techniques for getting the information you need.

On the Adjacency Matrix and Neighborhood Associated with Zero-divisor Graph f...Editor IJCATR
The main purpose of this paper is to study the zero-divisor graph for direct product of finite commutative rings. In our
present investigation we discuss the zero-divisor graphs for the following direct products: direct product of the ring of integers under
addition and multiplication modulo p and the ring of integers under addition and multiplication modulo p2 for a prime number p,
direct product of the ring of integers under addition and multiplication modulo p and the ring of integers under addition and
multiplication modulo 2p for an odd prime number p and direct product of the ring of integers under addition and multiplication
modulo p and the ring of integers under addition and multiplication modulo p2 – 2 for that odd prime p for which p2 – 2 is a prime
number. The aim of this paper is to give some new ideas about the neighborhood, the neighborhood number and the adjacency matrix
corresponding to zero-divisor graphs for the above mentioned direct products. Finally, we prove some results of annihilators on zerodivisor
graph for direct product of A and B for any two commutative rings A and B with unity

Where’s the Librarian? Expanding Beyond the Library Through Research & Technology Peer Fellows
Elizabeth Dolinger (Keene State College), Irene McGarrity (Keene State College), Danielle Hoadley (Keene State College), Matthew McDougal (Keene State College)
Questioning the value and sustainability of librarian led research instruction sessions, as well as the librarian staffed reference desk, two librarians spear-headed the development of a student peer mentor training program to improve integration of information literacy across the curriculum and provide research and technology assistance at the library’s new student staffed Information Desk. During this session, student Research & Technology Fellows will share their experiences participating in the program and two librarians will share their experiences developing and managing the program through a self-paced, blended model of online modules in the Canvas course management system and face-to-face trainings
The design and delivery of university learning is evolving to meet the changing needs of today’s students and researchers. The new user experience is a personal experience: PX is the new UX. One size fits one; students are seeking an experience that suits their own individual needs in their search journey. Starting with the spike of anxiety that sets in when a research assignment is given, following through the open web searching and then navigating the library’s resources, Lin Lin of EBSCO Information Services will discuss the insights derived while studying today’s students in depth, and how students’ approaches to research impacts the librarian-student relationship.

While libraries use sophisticated metrics to determine e-resources usefulness, impact and cost effectiveness, much of this reflects past usage. To elicit qualitative data, an open-source application that inserts a pop-up survey between a citation and its full-text was tested. Inspired by MINES for Libraries®, this pop-up survey aims to capture users’ real-time reasons for selecting a given resource. Join us to learn about the application, users responses to the survey and to discuss future uses.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
