The findings provide insights but also limitations, highlighting the need for more research through user testing and longer-term analytics. Key questions addressed how mobile use, required instruction, and collection size may impact discovery interactions.
Soaring in the Cloud: Collaboration Tools for Superhero Librarians
Annis Lee Adams and Margot Hanson from Golden Gate University and California Maritime Academy presented at the Hawaii Library Association Conference on November 9, 2013 about tracking and managing information literacy efforts. Their presentation discussed using tools like Google Forms, LibAnalytics, Gimlet, LibStats, mind-mapping software, BaseCamp and Trello to track reference interactions, create knowledge bases, map literacy to curriculums, and manage projects. An online handout was available.
Speed Dating for Project Management Software
This document summarizes a presentation on selecting project management software for libraries. It discusses common project management principles and challenges libraries face in selecting software. It provides case studies on libraries that used Trello and other tools. The presentation evaluates Microsoft Project, Basecamp, Jira, and Trello for their fit with different project needs and budgets. It concludes that the right software depends on a library's specific projects and team size, and that tools alone don't ensure effective project management.
Pathways to Online Information: A Collaborative Project for E-Resources
1) Pathways to Online Information (ePOI) is a collaborative project between Hawaii Medical Library, University of Hawaii at Manoa Library, and John A. Burns School of Medicine to provide a single access point for biomedical resources.
2) The project faced challenges of collaboration between different organizations, creating an easy-to-use interface, and defining the scope of included resources.
3) ePOI allows users to search over 16,000 journal titles, browse an alphabetical list of titles, and link directly to resources through participating libraries' proxy servers. Initial user response has been positive.
A Small Scale Multi-type Library Consortium for the Purchase of Electronic R...
The document summarizes a small-scale multi-type library consortium in Hawaii that was formed to purchase medical electronic resources at discounted rates. It describes the objectives, participants which include 6 academic libraries and 13 hospital libraries, resources available for purchase, and evaluation results which found high satisfaction among participants who reported saving money and gaining access to resources they otherwise would not be able to afford. The consortium has now successfully operated through three subscription cycles with a total monetary value of purchases in 2006 of approximately $295,260.
PDAs in Medical Education: MARP (Mobile Access Resource Project)
1) The MARP project provided first year medical students with PDAs and internet access to improve their electronic communication and information gathering abilities.
2) Students received training on using their PDAs and the MD on Tap application. Their usage was tracked and surveys were administered to evaluate the impact.
3) Preliminary results found that while PDAs improved students' scheduling abilities, the MD on Tap application was only marginally useful for first year students. Medical dictionaries and other apps were deemed more helpful than searching PubMed or MD on Tap for basic information needs.

This document provides an overview of health information resources for non-medical librarians. It discusses frequently asked health questions from patrons and introduces key online resources like MedlinePlus, ClinicalTrials.gov, and databases available through the Hawaii State Public Library System. The presentation emphasizes that librarians should provide health information and referrals to patrons but avoid giving medical advice. Contact information is provided for patrons needing further assistance.
Rebranding the Librarian: A Project of the ALA Emerging Leaders Program
The document summarizes a project by two librarians, Annis Lee Adams and Jenny Emanuel, as part of the ALA Emerging Leaders Program. The project involved surveying library professionals about perceptions of librarians and options for rebranding the profession. Over 3,400 respondents provided input in the survey, which helped the librarians analyze stereotypes, research rebranding possibilities, and propose solutions.
PDAs and First Year Medical Students
This document summarizes a study that provided medical students with PDAs and training to access medical databases. It found that while initial enthusiasm dropped after the first year, by the second year most students agreed the PDAs enhanced their education. The study also found that students used features like definitions, scheduling, and quick information retrieval, but had some issues with speed and relevance of searches.
Re-Branding the Librarian Profession in the Digital Age
This document discusses rebranding the librarian profession by analyzing stereotypes, surveying librarians, and proposing solutions. It suggests emphasizing expertise in information navigation and technology to appeal to younger users. Based on survey results, librarians see themselves as "Research Experts" while the public sees them as "Book Experts." To reposition librarians as the "ultimate human search engine," the document recommends a media campaign showing modern librarians and bringing library services into communities rather than just physical locations. It also suggests networking beyond libraries to demonstrate librarians' valuable skill sets.
Free Biz Resources: Visualization Tools for Business Research
The document summarizes free online visualization tools for business research. It outlines tools for international data like Hans Rosling TED talks on statistics, Google Public Data Explorer, and World Bank data. Finance tools mentioned include Yahoo! Finance, Google Domestic Trends, and the New York Times Business Day: Markets section. Marketing and demographic tools covered are the New York Times Mapping America Project, Gallup Economy: Consumer Spending Index, and Duke University Library Digital Collections on advertising. Contact information is provided at the end.
Trials by Juries: Suggested Practices for Database Trials
This panel discussion focused on tools and techniques for gathering feedback on database trials from librarians and library users. The panelists from Golden Gate University, University of Nebraska-Kearney, and Clemson University discussed criteria for selecting database trials, scheduling trials, soliciting and recording trial feedback, and closing the loop with participants and vendors after a trial. Key points included using web surveys to gather feedback, timing trials to maximize participation, and maintaining records of past trials and decisions.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
