Global Networked Digital Environment: How Libraries Shape the Future.
Presented by Ingrid Parent, President-elect of IFLA, at the Pacific Rim Digital Library Alliance Conference in Shanghai, October 21, 2010.
In February 2013 UBC Library implemented the LibQUAL+® survey for the fourth time, asking a random sample of students and faculty about their experience and expectations of the Library. The LibQUAL 2013: UBC Vancouver survey results report is available now.
The internet has profoundly challenged all constituents of the information economy: media, education, publishing and libraries. Social software, web 2.0, the read/write/web – all terms that were once the cusp of innovation and cutting edge – are now part of our everyday workflow. Libraries are constantly embracing new media and technologies to stay relevant, build awareness and ultimately engage with their users. Like most libraries, the University of British Columbia Library has a presence on social media, but how do we know what’s working and what’s not? Using a case study from UBC, we examine and measure the Library’s use of social media and how it interacts with users in a variety of ways, from events to promotions to informational questions, using its own auditing metrics and best practices.
Presented at the 2013 British Columbia Library Association annual conference in Richmond, BC May 10.
Jessica Woolman is the Web Communications Coordinator for UBC Library’s Communications and Marketing Department.
Allan Cho is a Program Services Librarian for the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre.
LibQUAL is a standardised survey instrument developed by the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) that measures user perceptions of library services. Libraries implement LibQUAL periodically to better understand user priorities and to monitor library performance relative to student and faculty expectations.
UBC Library ran LibQUAL in 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016. While survey questions are broad and results do not prescribe specific actions, the survey helps libraries understand their longitudinal performance in four areas:
Library collections
Access to collections
Library spaces
Customer service
As in past years, UBC Library ran LibQUAL separately at the Okanagan and Vancouver locations. At both locations the survey opened Monday, January 18 and ran for 3 weeks, closing Friday February 5. This report is limited to results of the Vancouver survey.
Social Media in a Academic Library: One piece of the puzzleUBC Library
Presentation by Jessica Woolman, Web Communications Coordinator at UBC Library, at the Canadian Library Association Conference May 28 - 31, 2014.
Social media tools, such as Facebook and Twitter, utilize an open environment with quick, real-time responses. Libraries have an opportunity to use social media as an outreach and engagement tool. But what does this mean for academic libraries, serving large populations of students, faculty and community members? UBC Library's experience using and managing multiple social media accounts will provide valuable insights to other libraries using social media. This session will utilize real-life examples and case studies that can be applied to any library organization.

UBC Library's Digital Preservation StrategyUBC Library
Presented by Bronwen Sprout & Sarah Romkey, UBC Library.
In early 2011, UBC Library began work on creating a digital preservation strategy in collaboration with Vancouver-based Artefactual Systems. Based on the results of a number of pilot projects, the strategy developed for UBC Library consists of using the open-source Archivematica digital preservation system to provide preservation functionality for the Library’s digitized and born-digital holdings. In addition, the strategy identifies the software requirements, existing and new system components, staffing and business processes that can be implemented to establish operational digital preservation systems and processes. They will discuss the strategy generally and cover three areas of implementation in greater detail: UBC Library’s Rare Books and Special Collections, cIRcle, a DSpace-based institutional repository, and CONTENTdm, UBC Library’s access system for digitized objects.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
