Research myth-busting: Discover the truth about today’s library services and ...
Presented at the 2014 Kentucky Pedagogicon Conference, held at Eastern Kentucky University, this librarian-led discussion explored designing assignments and syllabi that effectively utilize the resources and services of a 21st century academic library. After reviewing real-world examples, the audience was asked to identify misguided research instructions that may lead 21st century students down a 20th century path.
When faculty design syllabi, they often design research assignments based on the experiences they had in libraries as graduate students. They may still view the academic library as a warehouse for the storage and preservation of bound journals, microfilm, and books. However, library resources and services have changed dramatically, just in the past 5 years.
Transformative changes in library collection development have included: the emergence of quality open access resources; the dominance of the eJournal over the print journal; the availability of scholarly eBooks; and the rise in digitally born content (eJournals, newspapers, primary sources, etc.). What was once considered a “bad” or untrustworthy format simply because it was found on the open web is now potentially valuable and should not be automatically discounted.
Academic libraries today provide vibrant spaces for collaboration, access to print and virtual collections, and librarians with expertise in delivering instruction that engages students in effectively evaluating all types of information sources. Effective assignment design and syllabi creation will help students be more effective in their research and better users of information. The products they create will be higher in quality and potentially more interesting to the reader.

Using Your School Library Website in Instruction
This document provides guidance on creating an effective library website for instruction. It recommends having clear goals such as promoting the library and helping students learn. The design should be clean and simple with easy navigation, limited images, and age-appropriate language. Content may include library information, resources for students and teachers, tutorials, and lesson plans that support instruction. Websites should be evaluated for usability and updated regularly to engage users.

Evaluating Sources
This document provides information about evaluating research sources and websites for academic papers. It discusses different types of sources like scholarly articles, popular magazines, newspapers, and primary vs secondary sources. It provides checklists for evaluating websites, including looking at the author's credentials, timeframe covered, objectivity, bibliography, and format. The document also demonstrates how to analyze URLs and provides tips for determining the reliability and purpose of different sites. Overall, the document aims to teach students how to carefully evaluate sources and choose the most appropriate ones for research.
Searching and Evaluating the Web (General)
This document provides guidance on evaluating websites for research purposes. It discusses elements that indicate a website is a quality resource, such as the authority and qualifications of the author, the purpose and maintenance of the site, and whether the content is factual and objective. Good elements include .edu and .gov URLs, clear authorship by experts, and frequent updates. The document encourages students to consider these criteria when selecting a website for a class assignment and posting their finding in a discussion board. It aims to help students distinguish high-quality sources online.
Improving research skills
This document provides tips for improving research skills when searching online. It discusses strategies for evaluating websites using the CRAP test to determine currency, reliability, authority, and purpose. While Wikipedia can be a good starting point, it is not considered a primary source. Subscription databases through libraries are recommended for academic research as they contain peer-reviewed articles and filter resources based on quality and credibility. The document encourages utilizing library databases which organize vetted information across many topics.
Literature circles for the 21st century beta
The document provides information on implementing literature circles, including consistent structural elements, how to incorporate technology, and potential student roles. Literature circles allow students to choose their own books to read in small, self-managed discussion groups. Key elements include student choice, regular group meetings, and teacher facilitation rather than direction. The document discusses using e-books, online discussions, audio recordings, and other technologies to enhance literature circles. It also provides examples of student roles like discussion director, vocabulary detective, and illustrator that integrate technology.
Where to Start
The document provides guidance on where to begin research by collecting background information and keywords. It recommends starting with reference works like encyclopedias and dictionaries to develop an understanding of the topic. News media sources both current and historic can also provide context. Websites from .edu, .gov, and reputable .org domains should be evaluated for authority and reliability. While useful for an overview, reference sources should not be the sole basis for research.
