Contributed paper with Heather Moulaison and Joe Murphy for the 2009 ACRL conference in Seattle.
Information Professions Professionals
This document discusses cognitive authority in information professions. It begins by defining information professions and their role in collecting, organizing, and disseminating information. It then discusses Wilson's theory of cognitive authority, which considers how information seekers judge the authority of information sources. The document also examines Taylor's Value-Added Model, which focuses on user needs and how information systems can add value. Key links discussed are between cognitive authority, information seekers, information credibility/reliability, and the technologies used to retrieve information. The challenges of online information sources are also addressed. Overall, the document emphasizes the importance of cognitive authority and models like Taylor's for information professions to ensure authentic and reliable information dissemination.
Information Literacy Philosophy
The document discusses the importance of information literacy (IL) instruction provided by libraries. It defines IL as the ability to recognize information needs, locate reliable sources, and effectively use information. The role of libraries is to guide the learning process through IL seminars tailored to the community's needs and behaviors. Effective IL instruction requires assessing the community's information needs and literacy levels. Library instruction occurs through classroom sessions and reference transactions, where staff should advise patrons on search strategies, source evaluation, and determining appropriateness for goals. While libraries provide search tools, complex databases and interfaces often require introductions; limiting initial lessons to similar resources prevents overload. The ultimate goal is self-sufficient, autonomous users who can guide their own education and analysis without

Class presentation 2010
The purpose of this study is to determine if computer mediated social networking (Facebook) has an impact on adult Christian community. The guiding question is what impact does a hybrid computer-mediated social networking adult Christian learning community have on adult Christian community. The rational is that adult Christian development continues throughout life, Christian community is fundamental, and adults learn in community. Computer mediated social networking is a tool that can enhance community. The hypotheses are that computer mediated social networking will have a positive impact on community, increase contacts between individuals, impact perceptions of community quality, and impact personal spiritual growth.

Web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, social networking sites, tagging, and RSS feeds promote information fluency by allowing users to create, share, and collaborate on content. These tools make information more accessible and encourage lifelong learning. While useful, overdependence on these sources and lack of skills in evaluating digital information can also be problems if information literacy is not developed.
Inculcating science into public culture
Social media platforms have become important channels for science communication as they allow for interaction between scientists and broad audiences. Scientists are now directly engaging with the public on social media to share information. When using social media for science communication, it is important to consider the audience of each platform and set goals for engagement, sharing data, explaining science, or gaining media coverage and feedback. As traditional science news sources decline, social media will continue growing as a key way for scientists to interface with the public.

Sharing Insights: Developing Circular Practices in Makespaces
Sharing Insights at Making Futures Sept 2015
The Circular Makespaces (CMS) project is one of two Level 1 feasibility studies on Future Makespaces in Redistributed Manufacturing, a two-year ESPRC funded research project run by the Royal College of Art in London.
Team:
Grit Hartung – Research Associate, Designer Researcher
Sharon Prendeville – Research Associate, Design Researcher
Erica Purvis – Sustainable Design Engineer
Clare Brass – Co-Investigator, Head of SustainRCA
Ashley Hall – Co-Investigator, Professor of Design Innovation and deputy head of the Innovation Design Engineering programme at the RCA
“Eventually, everything connects – people, ideas, objects. The quality of the connections is the key to quality per se. …” (Eames)
[Abstract] Makespaces have the potential to contribute – through physical and relational goods – to a new economy that is economically, socially and environmentally sustainable. While we presume that Makespaces are intrinsically engaged in a vision for a circular economy, there are few studies that support this. Likewise, anecdotal evidence from managers of such spaces, and their maker networks, suggests many are struggling to sustain themselves economically. While some research has already been undertaken to map out and review the activities and value of Makespaces today, little of this research explores the Makespace communities from a circular economy viewpoint. The current discourse lacks both the overarching theoretical insights and the practical tools, models and frameworks to assist Makespace actors with circular practices. This lack of knowledge sees the Makespace movement risk transferring the negative impacts of our current linear economic model to a redistributed form. In light of this research gap, the overarching aim of this research is to uncover triggers for circular practices to become embedded within Makespaces, thereby informing principles of redistributed manufacturing. The research will take an exploratory approach using contextual mapping to undertake case studies with selected exemplary Makespaces. The case study methodology will combine generative research techniques with design probes. The case studies, as part of the first stages of Future Makespaces in Redistributed Manufacturing (FM RdM) at RCA, will uncover insights on people, ideas and objects for circular practices within exemplary Makespaces. Furthermore it will support systematic understanding on what current circular practices exist, the wider role of Makespaces (and their stakeholders) within a circular economy and redistributed manufacturing. The research will contribute to a wider conversation on embedding circular practices within Makespaces and their role in redistributed manufacturing. The findings will inform the next stages of the FM RdM project and wider context.

Gate Keepers to Tour Guides
Slides for Shira Atkinson and Kindra Becker-Redd's presentation at the Around the World Conference (4 May 2017).
Abstract:
Fake news presents real problems. While misinformation has always existed, the internet and social media have allowed it to proliferate and wield unprecedented influence on public opinion and discourse. In the United States, fake news helped to determine the 2016 presidential election and it continues to inform national and state policies in harmful, counterproductive ways. Information professionals, and particularly librarians, are seizing this moment to demonstrate the power of their expertise by formulating new tools that can help the public navigate the so-called ‘post-truth world’. These tools capitalize on librarians’ command of information literacy and promote a skills-based approach that is not only essential to the foundations of research but vital for the very well-being of democracy. The presenters will discuss the different tools that librarians and other information professionals are creating such as research guides, videos, infographics, apps, and other types of media; evaluate the challenges and limitations of existing tools and approaches; and consider future implications and actions for librarians.

Information literacy 2.0: experts or expats?
This presentation (rescued from the archives) was presented at the 2007 School Library Association of New Zealand Aotearoa Conference. It challenges library staff to reconsider their role in information literacy and how to ensure students and teachers are equipped to navigate the new information landscape. It asks for experts in contemporary information literacy issues, such as online identity, digital rights, social networking, personalisation and collaborative content, rather then expatriates continuing to do things as they did in ‘the old country’?
Embedded Librarianship: Physical Worlds & Virtual Worlds

NCompass Live: Community Engagement: Straight Talk
NCompass Live - January 29, 2020
http://nlc.nebraska.gov/ncompasslive/
Innovation encompasses far more than technology. One of the most exciting trends in 21st century libraries is the emphasis on restructuring and reinventing our roles in our communities. A huge part of this discussion revolves around the term "Community Engagement". And while this sounds grand and fancy, things often get blurry when we are pressed to define it, implement it, and (the most daunting of all) measure it.
It’s time to cut through ambiguity and put concrete parameters around this evasive topic. This discussion will center around the following questions about community engagement: Who, What, When, Where, Why, and HOW?
Participants will leave with a clear definition of Community Engagement, along with the framework for how to build a Community Engagement plan. One size doesn’t fit all. Your library is uniquely special and to honor this fact, this interactive hour will include brainstorming about what’s right for your library and community. This discussion will be supported by concrete examples and case studies from libraries who have implemented successful community engagement plans.
This conversation is for everyone in the public library. The secret to effective community engagement involves the whole team; we all have an important part to play.
Presenter: Erica Rose, Library Science Faculty/Program Coordinator, University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Well, Hello Blogger! Library Education 2.0: Bye, Bye, Blackboard?
The document discusses the concept of "Library Education 2.0" and how library education needs to adapt to incorporate new technologies and collaboration models enabled by Web 2.0. It references several authors who have written about this topic and the need for library education curricula to reflect concepts like participatory librarianship, where knowledge is created through conversation. As an example, it describes Murray State University's library media program that aims to promote collaboration and reflection among students through tools like wikis and blogs.
Standing Against the Online White Nationalist Movement
This document discusses the proliferation of white nationalist propaganda online and provides resources to help educators teach students how to critically evaluate online information and stand up to hate speech. It describes how white nationalists spread misinformation online to recruit young people and sow division. It provides three resources for educators - a toolkit from Western States Center on confronting white nationalism in schools, a guide called "Web Literacy for Student Fact-Checkers" that teaches skills for evaluating online claims, and a website called "Media Power Youth" that offers lessons on discriminating content and creating a positive digital footprint. The overall message is that educators must help students develop skills to critically analyze information online and counter white nationalist narratives, while still protecting free speech.

What is Information Literacy
- 1. Using Web 2.0 to Promote Information Literacy in Public Libraries A Literature Review, Examples of Public Libraries Successes, and Suggestions for the Future
- 2. What is Information Literacy? The ALA states that “to be information literate, a person must be able to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information.”
- 3. Finding Information In other words, we must know how to find information in it’s physical form and – increasingly – online. Public libraries are an obvious educator when it comes to teaching us how to find information.
- 4. Evaluating Information A Google search provides a variety of results: scholarly literature from Google Scholar, commercial websites, grey literature, individual social media sites, etc. Libraries can play a critical role in helping patrons to determine what’s legit and what isn’t.
- 5. Using Information How does one use, credit, and cite each of the various forms of information in existence? Libraries can help us to figure this out. My paper will highlight how libraries are already doing this, via social media.
