Drawing upon a synthesis of existing literature and empirical evidence, it examines the myriad ways in which libraries contribute to the advancement of scholarly pursuits. Libraries serve as repositories of knowledge, offering access to an extensive array of scholarly materials, including books, j

Abstract:

This article explores the evolving role of librarians in small to medium-sized academic libraries, using the Everett I.L. Baker Library at Norwalk Campus, Connecticut State Community College, as a case study. As academic libraries transition from traditional, specialized roles to more versatile staffing models, the importance of cross-training among library staff becomes increasingly apparent. In environments dominated by electronic resources and constrained by limited budgets, libraries must adapt by developing a workforce capable of handling diverse tasks, from cataloging to providing resear

Abstract:

Research has confirmed that strong school libraries are linked to academic achievement. Yet, school librarians often confront significant difficulties in obtaining support from administrators. Thoughtful and informative programs to educate administrators demonstrate the vital educational role of the library and librarian in building a strong academic environment.

Abstract:

This study explores tour trends in academic Association of Research Libraries (ARL), specifically examining the prevalence of several tour formats, including guided, self-guided, and virtual Web tours. Results from a survey conducted in November 2000 include statistical information about tour administration, audience, and structure, as well as perceptions of librarians in the field. Although tours are still a standard service in most academic ARL libraries, few libraries have formalized methods of testing the efficacy of each format. With the exception of guided tours, librarians’ perceptions

The article deals with the role of the scientific libraries in ensuring principles of academic integrity as a component of higher education quality. The basic principles of academic integrity (honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility) have been analyzed. The importance of these principles in the academic environment has been substantiated. The participation of the scientific libraries in raising awareness of plagiarism, correct citing using APA and MLA has been covered. Librarians’ possibility to do much more in ensuring academic integrity has been found out. The role of the scientifi

Abstract:

As long as empirical research has existed, researchers have been doing “data management” in one form or another. However, funding agency mandates for doing formal data management are relatively recent, and academic libraries’ involvement has been concentrated mainly in the last few years. The National Science Foundation implemented a new mandate in January 2011, requiring researchers to include a data management plan with their proposals for funding. This has prompted many academic libraries to work more actively than before in data management, and science librarians in particular are uniquely

Abstract:

In academic libraries, one of the lesser-explored discussions surrounds the value and validity of research done by librarians outside of their own professional literature (LIS). For this study, the authors surveyed seventy-five special collections librarians to assess their research activity; perspectives on non-LIS research; and experiences in the workplace regarding credit for non-LIS research. The quantitative data shows a large majority of respondents favored research outside of LIS, while the qualitative responses revealed strong opinions on research in and out of the profession, what con

Abstract:

Information management is a critical aspect of academic libraries as they serve as repositories of knowledge and resources for students, faculty and researchers. The rapid advancement of technologies such as artificial intelligence has significantly transformed the information management landscape of academic libraries. However, literature has established that many factors could inhibit the management of digital and physical collections in academic libraries, including awareness and adoption of AI. Thus, this paper examines the awareness and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in informat

As in many academic libraries all over the country, attracting and retaining people of color has been a continuous, uphill battle.”“It is a troubling reality that our current librarian ranks do not represent the communities served by libraries.”Sadly, both of these statements, from 2001 and 2003, still hold true today. Sustained attempts to lower barriers for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color), such as through residency programs, have not resulted in their long-term retention, and white librarians still make up the vast majority of degreed librarians.
