OPACs, users, and readers’ advisory: Exploring the implication of user-genera...
This document outlines a research project exploring how social discovery tools in public library catalogs can complement traditional readers' advisory services. The researchers will analyze user-generated tags and reviews for fiction titles in BiblioCommons and Encore catalogs to see what types of access points readers provide and how these compare to traditional RA categories. They will then examine how social tools can help readers connect and provide grassroots recommendations, and how libraries can use this information. The goal is to better understand readers' needs and perspectives to improve discovery of fiction materials.

Science fiction literature deals with the impact of science on society or individuals, popularized in the 1920s. It provides mental pictures of possible futures based on scientific principles, portraying worlds where technology substitutes for magic. Fantasy fiction relies on strangeness like other worlds and supernatural beings. It includes genres like heroic fantasies involving quests between good and evil, alternative world journeys, mysteries with supernatural solutions, and modern folktales. The difference between sci-fi and fantasy is that sci-fi predicts technological developments while fantasy uses supernatural elements not linked to our world.

Course Description
The fantastic has been around in literature as early as the medieval and Renaissance periods and even earlier (Beowulf, the King Arthur legends, The Faerie Queene, A Midsummer Night’s Dream). Many people actually believed in trolls, elves and dragons. But why does Fantasy persist, even thrive, in the modern period? How do we define Fantasy as a genre? We will ask such questions as we adventure in the worlds of William Morris, George MacDonald, Lord Dunsany, E. R. Eddison, Robert E. Howard, J. R. R. Tolkien and Stephen R. Donaldson. We will investigate our need for quests, explore the unknown and unusual, and encounter characters that defy the categories of being.
III. Course Objectives
--develop a definition of the fantasy genre and identify representative texts of both the genre as a whole and its emerging subgenres in order to examine the concept of genre itself, its usefulness and limitations.
--identify the medieval and Renaissance roots of the material upon which the fantasy genre draws.
--understand the historical, philosophical, and cultural aspects of the rise and continuation of the fantasy genre throughout the modern period.
--examine key examples of fantasy novels and understand how those examples represent major stages in the development/transformation of the genre.
