Zine collections: An Australian perspective
Presented by Jessie Lymn & John Stevens on January 23, 2009 at RAILS 2009 in Sydney , Australia.
This presentation considers a unique subcultural form - the zine - and examines two Australian examples of zine collections, one informal collection at the Octapod, a community arts space in Newcastle, NSW, and another collection in the Rare Printed section of the State Library of Victoria. These two collections have emerged over the past decade as significant collections of zines in Australia. Both collections are also currently the subject of research projects being undertaken in library and information studies institutions in Australia; research which aims to add to the small but growing body of knowledge of the field from an Australian perspective.

Shan Robinson's presentation:
My talk will feature some of the outreach and promotional projects undertaken by the Library and Archive Service at Bangor University. These projects and activities fulfil our commitment to providing quality outreach work which opens doors between the University and the community at large. In the past few years we have completed a number of new and novel projects which have been designed to showcase the collections and offer original context in which to present the collections to the public. This led to Bangor Library and Archive Service shortlisted for a prestigious Times Higher Education Leadership and Management Award (THELMA) for their outreach and community engagement work in 2017. As well as bringing Town and Gown together, these projects also provide an opportunity for Bangor students to volunteer and win employability credits working alongside specialists form various agencies. From a University standpoint the aim is to encourage the public to be comfortable in the University setting and raise learning aspirations of individuals of all age.

Sharing "Hidden Collections" Beyond Our Libraries' Walls / Elaine Franco
Sharing "Hidden Collections" Beyond Our Libraries' Walls / Elaine FrancoNorthern California Technical Processes Group
At the University of California, Davis, special collections cataloging is mainstreamed within a comprehensive cataloging department. In recent years, bibliographic access has been provided for materials that had been uncataloged and "hidden" for decades. Through cataloging efforts at the local level, original bibliographic records have been added to OCLC WorldCat, the University of California's Melvyl, and the ESTC (English Short Title Catalog). As a result of catalogers' virtual travel beyond the library's walls, hidden collections can be made accessible beyond the library's physical boundaries. Specific examples of calculated online searches, as well as serendipitous discoveries, will be presented within a broader context of providing access to collections "hidden" within the physical walls of a physical library, with the intent of suggesting best practices that could be adapted by other catalogers for other libraries. Elaine Franco is Principal Cataloger for monographs in the Cataloging & Metadata Services Department, UC Davis Library. She currently serves on the Advisory Board of the California Library Association Technical Services Interest Group, is Chair of the ALCTS Affiliate Relations Committee, and is a member of the ALCTS Board of Directors.Discovering hidden gems: cataloguing the Cardiff Rare Books Collection
The document discusses the cataloguing of the Cardiff Rare Books Collection. It describes how the collection was originally part of the Cardiff Public Library but was up for sale. In 2009, cataloguers from Cardiff University performed an initial scoping of the collection and found that most books were previously uncatalogued. The university later purchased the collection and it is now housed in their special collections library. Cataloguing the full collection posed various challenges around standards, conservation, and prioritization. The project aims to make the collection accessible to researchers through detailed cataloguing of individual rare books.

Content and Context: Improving Access to Biodiversity Field Books
This document discusses improving access to field books in the Smithsonian Institution collections. It notes there are an estimated 8,000 field book items housed across different Smithsonian units. The Field Book Project aims to catalog, conserve, digitize these items and create a single online location to access them. The project has so far cataloged over 6,000 field books and is working to submit records to external authority files and databases to further improve discovery and access. Future goals include expanding the registry to accept content from outside the Smithsonian and moving the registry online.

Seeing Collections Differently: Dancing the 1932 Scottish School Certificate ...
The document discusses ways to creatively showcase collections by focusing on specific parts or recontextualizing old items. It suggests "micro-focusing" on details within works, "macro-focusing" through text mining to find patterns, maintaining a "retro-focus" as contexts change, attracting new audiences through topics like sports, and "re-focusing" old works for new artistic interpretations like dancing a 1932 geometry exam. The goal is to find novel ways of engaging with collections and attracting diverse audiences.
Tabscott history of library 2
The document provides a history of libraries from ancient times to the modern era. It discusses how the earliest libraries began as collections of clay tablets and scrolls in places like Egypt and Mesopotamia. Some important early libraries included the Library of Alexandria, founded in the 3rd century BC, which was a major center of knowledge but was eventually destroyed. Libraries grew again during the Roman Empire and Middle Ages within monasteries, which helped preserve knowledge. The modern library system developed from the 15th century onward with innovations like the printing press and movement for public libraries in the 19th century led by Andrew Carnegie. The Library of Congress was established in 1800 and has grown to be the largest library in the world.
