The Evolution and Solution:
         AFREL
   Peter W. Perschbacher, PhD
     Activity Director AFREL
       Title III Workshop 9/28/11
The Gold Standard Research
         Library-UAMS
• UAMS provides our gold standard for the
  aqfi doctoral program, in all areas.
• UAMS library was designed preadvent
  cyberlibrary: large stacks for journals and
  computers added to the quiet room.
• AFREL needed to combine the access to
  literature focus of UAMS with cyberlibrary
  realities.
Aquaculture/Fisheries Library
           Pre-2005
• Prior to AFREL, which was created with a
  capacity building grant in 2005, the aqfi
  library was housed in the documents room
  of 1890 Extension.
• No librarian and walking books (1/2 lost).
• No climate control and green fuzzy hell.
• No online journals, with Watson providing
  the handful of hardcopy journal access.
AFREL Post-2005

• The capacity building grant converted a faculty
  conference room in Woodward to AFREL: the
  Aquaculture Fisheries Research and
  Educational Library.
• Furnishings, security, librarian, limited book
  budget, and substantial online journal and
  database budget were provided for the 3 year
  duration of the grant. And Watson converted
  their journals and databases to online.
• Title III maintained and expanded the journals-
  the lifeblood of AFREL during the doctoral
  reviews.
AFREL Reality - a Cyberlibrary
• Currently approximately 1000 fisheries books,
  45 fisheries online journals, and 3000 visits/yr.
  (2500 online and 500 physical).
• Grad students and faculty access from offices,
  with inhouse use of reference books, course
  reserved materials, and ILL.
• Undergrads and the public (incl. stakeholders)
  access inhouse, and from 5 AFREL computers
  and aqfi labs, use copying and librarian services,
  and study areas.
• Staff are able to respond to faculty
  needs/requests effectively and quickly.
AFREL Post-2012 ?

• AFREL meets current needs, but is
  cramped.
• Physical growth potential is thus limited
  and study rooms impossible.
• Library functions must expand beyond
  stacks and computers to include latest IT-
  trained personnel and equipment,
  distance conferencing and study/pp
  practice rooms.
• Future Title III assistance?
