Availability and Accessibility of Information Resources by the University Stu...YogeshIJTSRD
The study examined the availability and accessibility of information resources by the students in Ekiti State University Library. The purpose of the study is to determine the various types of information resources available, the various forms of information resources and to find out the extent in which the library improve on the accessibly and availability of information resources to its users. Descriptive survey research design was adopted in this study. Questionnaire was employed for this study. The population consisted of all the students of Ekiti State University which include both male and female students from 100 to 500 levels. The sample of the study consisted of 180 students from all the nine 9 Faculties in Ekiti State University, Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State from the total population of 1,500 students who were regular library users. The data collected were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences SPSS . Based on the findings of this study some recommendations were made that the library must sustain and maintain the current level of the information resources available in the library. Library orientation should be organized on the importance of using the library and mostly how to access the available materials. The library authority should be given more attention as certain percentage should be allocated for the library development to enable the students to access the needed resources. The study concluded that effectiveness of any library depends on the full availability and accessibility of the information resources. Therefore, proper steps for availability and accessibility of the information resources should be the focal point of the library management and staff in order to meet the demand of the users at the right time.

Library is considered as an important part of the college which is the major learning resource for the students and staff. As per the changing time, role of library is also being changed. Advanced technology has been utilized by the library to provide library services. The main aim of library is to avail the various reading material and learning resources to the students and work for the amusement and imbibe values in the readers by reading various autobiographies of great leaders. Students get inspirations and life-force for their future life by reading.
Library and information science (LIS) is a multi-disciplinary and dynamic field which adapts rapidly to technological and social developments, and keeps pace with emerging ideas and technologies. The willingness of library and information professionals to proactively accept changes and venture into new knowledge territories is helping the LIS discipline to stay relevant and useful in the fast changing society. Other factors that are driving innovation and creativity in LIS, are the popularity of the Web as an alternative source for information acquisition as well as competition from non-library agencies now involved in information provision.
Information and communication Technology (ICT) has been considered as the most instrumental factor for the change in the mode of delivery of library services. General and traditional services of the library have been influenced with the introduction of new innovative practices, because of application of new ICT –based products and services.

The Requirement For Worthy Attribute of Library Staff in Tertiary Institution...AJHSSR Journal
: This study focuses on the requirement for worthy attribute of library staff in tertiary institutions’
library services so as to be more relevant in the new information age. This is based on the fact that institutions’
libraries are set up now to extend services beyond their physical walls, provide materials accessible by
electronic means and at the same time to provide unrestricted access to information. Invariably, to effectively
cope with their changing roles in the library system, Librarians need to avail themselves to training and
retraining programmes local, regional and international so as to keep pace with the development in the
Information Communication Technologies in the 21st Century to provide optimum services for library
users/clienteles. The study concludes that individuals must be preparing to make personal sacrifices towards
upgrading themselves. Similarly, tertiary institutions/ organisations should as a matter of obligation develop
people; it has no choice. It either helps them grow or it stunts them. It either forms them or it deforms them as
opine by Drucker, Peter F (1990). This training and retraining programmes is imperative in this new Information

The role of information literacy in higher education an initiative at al akh...Aziz EL Hassani
Abstract
This paper, part of which was presented at the 12th annual AMICAL conference at the American University in Bulgaria held in Blagoevgrad, on 29 May 2015, reports on a doctoral research project which explores the meaning and role of information literacy in higher education and lifelong learning. It also highlights an information literacy initiative at a Moroccan university, namely Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane, and how its academic library strives to promote it. Living in an age of information tsunami and technological advancement, issues of information access, evaluation, retrieval and effective use, have become significantly critical in our societies. Directing the attention to the issue of information literacy and framing the best practices on how they can be best blended into the learning process of students are of paramount importance. Like other libraries across the globe, Mohammed VI Library at Al Akhawayn University in Morocco has realized the importance of information literacy and has worked in various ways to address this issue. This paper will describe the university strategy of teaching Information Literacy to graduate and undergraduate students in a number of ways. Recommendations to improve and support this initiative, including incorporating information literacy and skills across the university's curriculum, and fostering more effective partnerships between the Al Akhawayn university library and the teaching faculty, will be also discussed in this paper.
Abid Hussain Library Officer Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad has highlighted the strategy to attract more users to library in order to stay there for long time. The article is worth reading for academia, faculty members and educationists in library and information sciences field.

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

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

TRAINING OF TRAINERS FOR EFFECTIVE TEACHING AND COLLABORATING
IN INFORMATION LITERACY
AT THE ACADEMIC LIBRARY OF AR-RANIRY
By Nazaruddin
Presented to: Prof. Joan Bartlett
School of Information Studies-McGill University
2. Fall 2009
Introduction
As technological advancements at the Academic Library of Ar-Raniry, as part of the
December 2004 tsunami recovery’s response, along with drastic changes in users' information
needs continue to grow in the Ar-Raniry University, the librarians are faced with a need to
develop a formal information literacy instruction.
In cooperation with the School of Information Studies (SIS), Adab Faculty of Ar-Raniry,
the library will develop a regional information literacy training program called “Training of
Trainers for effective teaching in Information Literacy” (ToTIL). The overall purpose of this
collaborative training is to develop teacher-librarians capacity in teaching information literacy
for users as outlined in the Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education, as
well as to develop effective collaboration with course instructors, university administrators and
other stockholders.
In order to provide a better overview of this workshop, the ToTIL plan includes the
following components: the demographic of the library, information literacy needs, available
resources, goals and objectives, instructional methods and program, materials deigns as well as
evaluation and revision plans.
The demographic of Academic Library of Ar-Raniry
The Academic Library of Ar-Raniry is the main library of Ar-Raniry University, which is
the biggest modern Islamic university in Aceh-Indonesia. The library was established in 1963
along with its institution. The ultimate goal of the library is to support the mission of Ar-Raniry
that reflects upon the three pillars of Indonesian Higher Education (TRIDHARMA): teaching,
learning and research. To support the academic roles of its teaching, learning and research
2
3. programs, the library provides a variety of resources, services and programs for the Ar-Raniry
campus’ community.
To operate these essential roles properly, the library has 6 professional staff and 24
paraprofessional staff who in six different divisions: Administration, Acquisition and
Cataloguing, Circulation and Reference, Marketing and Publication, Events and exhibitions,
Library Staff Development, IT Services, and Preservation. In addition, each of the division is
leaded by a professional librarian.
Vision:
Develop the library of Ar-Raniry as a modern Islamic information resource centre to
support teaching, learning and research process at the Ar-Raniry by providing reliable,
relevant and recent resources with high quality services.
Mission: The library of Ar-Raniry

4. Target Population and Collection
The intended audience of the Ar-Raniry library are students, faculties, researchers and
other academic staff within the five faculties existing in the university. Other potential audience
include general public ether local, national or international those has special interest in Islamic
subjects. To serve the amount of 7000 internal patrons, the library provides 20.000 titles and
around 200,000 copies of collections consisting of books and journals both in printed and
electronic formats.
Funding and Library Developments
As a government organization, the Ar-Raniry library is fully funded by the government of
Indonesia. Since the funding from the government is limited, the library is allowed to receive
funding from others donors either national or international. For examples, after tsunami in 2004
the library received a funding from the Asia Foundation (TAF) to build an automation system.
Also, in 2006 the library got another grant from the IAIN Indonesia Social Equity Project
(IISEP), a bilateral project funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA)
and the Government of Indonesia.
The donation from IISEP was purposed to enhance the electronic system of the library by
building the library’ website, develop the library collection as well as to develop the human
resources of the library by providing scholarships for three library’s staff to study in Information
Studies at McGill University.
As a result, in October 2007 the library has established an Online Public Access
Catalogue (OPAC), sent its staff to McGill, developed the collection and launched its website
which allows patrons to access to the following resources online:
ODLIS: Online Dictionary of Library and Information Science

Information Literacy challenges
As technological advancements along with drastic changes in users' information needs
continue to grow in the Ar-Raniry University, the librarians are faced with a need to develop a
formal library instruction. Other challenges include the library has become one of the
development targets of the institution and the local government, academic community is willing
to support library program.
At the national level, the educational quality reform in Indonesian in 1998 emphasizing
on problem based learning system which aimed at activating students, has created new
paradigms for professional and pedagogical activities in higher education and the library is
working to adjust its services to this new situation. Furthermore, at the international scale, the
shift in the concept of a traditional library into learning resource center is also another real
challenge that forces the Ar-Raniry library to develop an information literacy program
effectively.
5
6. Although it was a little bit late, the academic library of Ar-Raniry also responded to these
new trends by conducting a-one day information literacy workshop as a pilot project in July
2006. This workshop was intended to new undergraduate students of Ar-Raniry University.
Information Literacy Plan
The need of Training of Trainers for effective teaching in Information Literacy (ToTIL)
The explosion of information in various formats and the challenge of using them
effectively and responsibly have been responded seriously by the Association of College and
Research Libraries (ACRL) and the American Association of Higher Education (AAHE) since a
decade ago. The ACRL and the AAHE has struggled to address information literacy concerns.
One of the real efforts of the ACRL is “ACRL’s Best Practices Initiative” which was developed
through a multiphase process which involved professionals from multiple sectors of higher
education, including librarians, faculty, administrators, and professional organizations.
The guideline offers a detailed outline of the recommended components for excellent
information literacy planning, collaborative information literacy pedagogy, outreach to academic
departments and other necessary efforts for creating successful information literacy instruction
outcomes (American Library Association, 2001).
The ACRL’s efforts have been responded widely by many academic libraries around the
world by providing instruction in information literacy described as the "ability to locate, manage,
critically evaluate, and use information for problem solving, research, decision making, and
continued professional development" (Orr, A., & Wallin,M, 2001, p 457).
6
7. Although it was a little bit late, the academic library of Ar-Raniry also has responded
toward the new trends by conducting a-one day information literacy workshop for new
undergraduate students in July 2006.
Regarding the academic roles of university libraries, it was acknowledged that the
universities libraries are teaching libraries (University of Rhode Island, 2006). Therefore,
building librarians’ capacity in teaching information literacy and using multimedia media
technology is essential.
Moreover, to better cover the diverse needs of university patrons in today’s information
age, Mary C. at.al (2000) argue that it is a need to prepare instructional teacher-librarians in
information literacy. They offer the following steps. First, outline the information literacy
concepts and programs into a planning document. Second, develop a shared definition of
information literacy for the university so that we could use to share and discuss ideas both with
our colleagues and with the university community at large. Third, develop a core group of library
faculty specifically for teaching. Forth, implement the program by working collaboratively with
faculties other colleagues outside the library. Finally, evaluate and revise the plan provide more
teaching labs, location and facilities.
As the academic library, the library of Ar-Raniry also actively tries to promote their
services as the bridge of information empowerment between users and their research needs. The
librarians strive to offer the Ar-Raniry community opportunities to become effective, efficient
information consumers for the 21stcentury.
However, based on the first information literacy workshop, the librarians found that there
were some potential treats that need to be solved. The treats include lack of staff and staff’s
7
8. teachings ability, lack of resources and media such as computers, projectors, low internet
connection as well as limited representative rooms. The librarians believe that those all are
interrelated problems, but the root and the most urgent problem that should to be solved soon is
pedagogical staff skills.
Such problems were not only experienced by the Ar-Raniry library. Similar barriers also
found in other academic libraries such as ineffective partnerships with faculties, difficult to
motivate students to learn information literacy skills and to assess student mastery of concepts
and skills. Therefore, it is a crucial need to train librarians to serve as teachers as well as
instructional designers (Grassian & Kaplowitz, 2001).
Consequently, in order to solve these interrelated problems, the library of Ar-Raniry is
planning to make every effort to succeed information literacy program, and the first essential
step that need be done is to provide a pedagogical training for trainers with a special focus on
effective teaching techniques.
Goals and objectives
Goals:
to prepare the librarians of Ar-Raniry as information literacy professional trainers who will
be able:
to teach library users effectively and efficiently by using appropriate methods and
modern technology media.
8
9. to develop effective collaboration with course instructors, university administrators and
other stockholders in order to promote information literacy both at internal, local,
national and international levels.

Notes: The framework for classifying statements of these objectives is based on “Bloom
Taxonomy of educational objectives”. The contents and coverage are standardized with the
"Standards for Proficiencies for Instruction Librarians and Coordinators" by focusing on
four categories of IL pedagogy’s skills.
The instruction methods
There is a variety of instructional methods have been introduced. However selecting
appropriate pedagogical methods will depend on many institutional and situational factors such
as audience, purpose, budget, staffing, facilities, and time (Grassian & Kaplowitz, 2001). To

A plan for Evaluation and Revision
According to the senate committee on teaching and learning’s (2002), there are six
strategies that teachers may use to assess and evaluate the quality of their teaching and its impact
on student learning: 1) teaching dossiers; 2) student ratings; 3) peer observations; 4) letters and
13
14. individual interviews; 5) course portfolios; and 6) classroom assessment. In addition, the senate
recommend that in order to ensure that the evaluation is both comprehensive and representative,
it is important to combine a variety of evaluation strategies. Therefore, this workshop use
summative evaluation by combining three evaluation strategies above: peer evaluation,
classroom assessment as well as self assessment.
