Presented by Fernan Dizon at PAARL’s National Summer Conference on the theme "Superior Practices and World Widening Services of Philippine Libraries", held at Dao District, Tagbilaran City, Bohol, 14-16 April 2010
Session presented at a conference of the Academic and Research Libraries Division of the Minnesota Library Association.
What is a MOOC, what is it like to take one, why are they important, and what do they have to do with libraries? This session will provide answers to these questions and give attendees a closer look through the presenter’s experience as a participant in seven different courses in 2012.
Participants will be better prepared to discuss and make use of the opportunities and challenges these new learning communities present to our institutions. Come learn about the different kinds of MOOCs, how they can be used to learn new skills, how they implement and share open educational materials, and other topics to engage your colleagues and campus community in conversations about their future.
Library is the heart of any educational institutions. Nowadays there are two basic form of library, one is traditional library and another is digital library. Traditional library is the library to collection the information in print form like books, journals etc. and digital library is the library to collection information with associated services, where the information is stored in digital format like text, video, audio etc. and accessible over a network. According to Bala and Sagar(2014, 369p.) “Library as an institution has played an important role in the progress of civilization. In the modern age the library users need accurate, current and pinpointed information, and there expectation also high”. Due to lack of time no body have time to visit a library and search catalogue cards. Most of the users prefer the digital resources because these can be used anytime and by everyone over the Internet.

Towards collaboration at scale: Libraries, the social and the technicallisld
Libraries are now supporting research and learning behaviors in data rich network environments. This presentation looks at some examples focusing on how an emphasis on individual systems needs to give way to a broader view of process, workflow and behaviors.
It also discusses how this environment creates a demand for collaboration at scale among libraries.
The presentation will be structured as follow. The talk will first provide an introduction to the theory behind the Socio-Cultural Ecology (Pachler, Bachmair and Cook, 2010) and the notion of User-generated contexts (Cook, Pachler and Bachmair, accepted), which Cook (2009) has refined into an analytical tool called a ‘typology-grid’ (see below). The talk will then demonstrate how the typology-grid has been successfully been used to analyse and learn from the ALPS and conclude by inviting a critique of the typology-grid.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. “This planet has – or rather had – a problem, which was this: most of
the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many
solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were
largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper,
which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of
paper that were unhappy.”
From The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams (1979)

7. Licence management at Northumbria
350 licences for e resources, local MS Access database
Authentication via Shibboleth and virtual desktop
Heavily used discovery and access services
Experiencing increase in scholarly reading
Most significant licence challenge is extending off-campus access
beyond authorised user, i.e.
– Wider student lifecycle – pre-entry and alumni
– Collaborative partnerships in the UK and overseas – validated students
Currently hitting my desk
– 2 international partners
– 5+ UK partners
– Issues with alumni access
– Several other ‘miscellaneous’
8. Reflections on progress since 2010…
Thorny issues at the JIBS workshop ‘Where now for resource
licensing’ 2010
Significant progress since, e.g. JISC
– Ongoing development of model licences
– JISC decision tool
– ONIX and KB+
Thorny issues remain – JIBS workshop ‘Licensed to death?’ 2014
Different and evolving HEI business models
Doing more for less – manual back-office not attractive
Successful licence negotiation for extended access doesn’t
necessarily enable delivery – e.g. rights but no channel
Library still becomes visible when something stops working or
provisioning access is difficult
9. Challenging comparisons
Prevailing perception that academic libraries should either be more
like the current and anticipated generation of streaming and on
demand media services, e.g. Netflix or Spotify
..or, that the existence of these commercial services combined with
perception that there is nothing unique behind publisher paywalls,
demonstrates libraries have had there day when it comes to content
But these business models don’t apply, i.e. end-user can’t pay and
cost shouldn’t reflect usage (who wants to limit scholarly reading?)
Libraries and the wider knowledge community have achieved more
than is perceived, e.g. international standards, automation, self-
service… However, ‘access’ has never really been solved since
transition from print to e
10. Principles for content delivery in HE?
Free at point of need
Anytime, anywhere
Customer chooses format
Maximum usage is desirable
Seamless – workflows, SSO
Must provide value for money, and ensure financial sustainability
Multi-channel and sourcing is a necessity
Balance JIT v. JIC
Inter Library Loan and document delivery are as important as ever
Should the principles we set out for acquiring content should reflect
the principles we adopt for supporting Open Access?
11. Mobile
Technology characterised by extreme opportunities and challenges
Superficially attractive – anytime, anywhere
Growing ubiquity of devices – bridging digital divide?
User as product, hidden costs, privacy issues, platform wars
Devices and apps in the educational context
– How does the level of personalisation translate to institutional delivery?
– Silos of content and activity
– Poor fit with existing infrastructure, e.g. federated access
Most promising content apps third party?
– e.g. BrowZine
User experience – digital sampling versus immersive reading
Is there content that fits the mobile channel?
– Granularity versus scholarly tradition
– Re-use and machine readability
12. Mobile at Northumbria
Increasing range of services and channels geared to mobile across
University, e.g. campusM, SafeZone
Responsive and mobile-friendly library platform (Springshare)
Digital – connectivity, e.g. NFC and ebooks – where a moment of
truth converges with a point of need
Potential of mobile digital wallet for cashless payment
Digital Literacy is a driver – encouraging and supporting students
rather than just responding to perceived need
On-campus experience still part of core offer
13. Customer insight and focus
How do we really know what students and Faculty really want?
– Trends and market data
– Feedback and engagement at institution and national level
– Observing behaviour and analysing activity
Relationship between Millennials and mobile technology appears
clear-cut
How does perception compare with reality?
– Is ownership equivalent to usage? Do students want a single channel of access, i.e. mobile?
Most frequent student feedback – space then content.
Behaviour – students currently:
– Use multiple devices, screens, and print simultaneously. And use their mobiles to photograph the evidence!
– Use mobiles to access online services but mostly use desktops – according to analytics. Separating
business v. pleasure?
– Use and share big screens when working in groups, either for social or collaborative learning.
– Want more space for reading. Immersive reading of print as well as digital sampling.
Understand direction of travel but also nuance. Necessity v.
preference?
15. Identity and access
Libraries downstream in ESA and IAM
Can’t designate status and attributes
Internal challenge to create appropriate governance, policy, and
infrastructure
Are we aware of all our affiliates?
International standards but no standard implementation?
Complex and hybrid environment for SSO (see NISO ESPReSSO)
Shibboleth rarely fully exploited – too late? Still chicken and egg
between SP and IdP?
Rapidly evolving commercial and personal systems – ‘BYOI’
Value of learning analytics versus user experience versus privacy
concerns
Mobile exacerbates these issues
16. Final thoughts #1
Need to be strategic. Change will happen. Continue national
conversation, e.g. via JISC’s manifesto for mobile.
Mobile is ‘as well as’ not ‘instead of’ – yet.
When you think mobile, also think digital. This means digital literacy
as well as connectivity.
Design with and in response to students. What they tell us, and how
they are behaving. Not just market trends and technocratic
solutionism or fads. Academic libraries should support institution’s
pedagogic strategy.
17. Final thoughts #2
Could – should – content delivery become unified?
Are licences that allow content delivery via third party apps for
mobile possible across the board? Do we need to find new
approaches on usage data to enable this? Recent experience with
PDA suggests it will be a bumpy road ahead.
Licences will continue to be key but copyright law will continue to
develop in response to digital.
We need to factor mobile into content we licence directly or through
advocacy, e.g. Open Access, Library as publisher, not just content
we consume.
To go mobile and solve long-running challenges we will need new
approaches to identify management and authentication.
