A study on Information Needs of Academic Staff Members of Rajarata University of Sri Lanka by S.K. Illangarathne, Assistant Librarian, Rajarata University of Sri Lanka and C. Shirani Dharmarathne, Senior Assistant Librarian, University of Sri Jayewardenepura, - 3rd LIS Research Symposium, Dept. of Library and Information Science, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka
This document discusses public practitioner-researchers (PPRs) and their role in library and information science (LIS) research. It analyzes 405 research articles from 11 LIS journals to compare PPR research topics and strategies to other researchers. The analysis found that PPRs made up a small percentage of authors and focused their research on topics like users, public libraries, and youth services using surveys and case studies. The document argues that more PPR research is needed to influence policy, serve users, and share practical knowledge with other librarians. Attitudes, priorities, resources and tools need to change to better support PPR research activities.
The document discusses various methods for assessing libraries, including surveys, questionnaires, focus groups, observation, usability studies, and ROI calculations. It provides examples of assessment tools like LibQUAL+, which uses surveys to measure user perceptions of service quality across three dimensions: affect of service, information control, and library as place. The document emphasizes that assessment is important for strategic planning, decision-making, program evaluation, advocacy, and regular service improvements in libraries.

This document discusses evaluating and selecting online resources. It begins by introducing the presenters and their interests in usage measurement and the concept of electronic resource usage in libraries. It then discusses how collection practices have shifted from a supply-side to a demand-driven model where use and demand analysis drive decisions. The document advocates for a data-driven approach using multiple variables like usage statistics, user feedback, and quality metrics to make large decisions. It outlines an agenda to discuss understanding e-resource use and value as well as negotiations. Finally, it questions how to best measure use and the value of understanding use as a complex process rather than just a number.

Reference philosophy in a rural library districtMary Chance
The document analyzes the reference philosophy of a rural library district (RLD) through interviews and observation. It finds that the RLD's conservative philosophy, driven by budget cuts, leaves patrons without adequate assistance. Staff are unsure of policies and focus on empowering patrons through self-service with little help. A clear district policy and expanded definition of reference could better serve patron needs and inform leadership decisions.
This presentation, by Tito Sierra, was given as part of the Program on Information Science brown bag series.

This document discusses open access in Japan and potential strategies to increase open access availability of Japanese research publications. It notes that while Japan produces over 80,000 scholarly articles annually and has over 700 institutional repositories, only 6.9% of annual publications are available through open access repositories due to lack of author participation. The document proposes the CHOR/JST initiative, which would involve authors reporting funding sources at submission and connecting funders, authors, readers, libraries and publishers to improve access. It provides an example of Chiba University searching for articles by their authors funded by JST programs, finding around 400 articles but low author registration of funding sources is a challenge. The document suggests things may be improving for open access in Japan but more
How students *really* do research - Findings from the Research Confession BoothEmily Singley
This document summarizes findings from a study called the Research Confession Booth. The study involved undergraduate and graduate students performing research tasks at a booth while talking through their process and being recorded. Key findings included:
- Students primarily used Google, Google Scholar, and library databases like PubMed for research.
- Navigation of library resources was challenging for many students.
- Students valued features that provided relevant results, full-text access, and citation management support.
- Some found library resources confusing and difficult to use compared to familiar Google.
- Preference for open web was due to quick results, familiar interfaces, and ability to match effort to information needs.
Discussion on Information Literacy for Faculty at Empire State CollegeDana Longley
The document discusses how libraries can help students improve their information literacy skills. It notes that 87% of students are information illiterate and 89% use search engines rather than library resources for research. Students tend not to interact with librarians and miss opportunities for deep learning. The author argues that developing strong information skills is important for students' success and a democratic society. The library aims to help through workshops, tutorials, and collaborating with faculty on integrating information literacy into assignments.
