“O Rare! Performance in Special Collections.” I will admit that when the theme for the 2013 RBMS preconference was announced, I assumed that all of the papers would come from colleagues who work directly with performing arts collections. Given that I work at Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University, it might have been more promising for me if, instead of beginning “O Rare,” the title had begun “Orare,” the Latin verb to pray. But then I considered the first words of the conference abstract: Libraries house performance. Although the focus of the library where I work is not . . .

Abstract:
The specific information provided in this paper offers a descriptive history regarding the attempts of Southern Methodist University (SMU) to be “modern” through tracing the institution’s movement from one playing field to another. Like other southern universities, SMU started football and built an on-campus stadium of concrete and steel believing their legitimacy as an institution could be enhanced through providing football as a product for consumption. However, SMU is unique among many of its contemporaries because soon after building an on-campus facility, it decided to move off campus in the pursuit of greater name recognition and revenue. Collectively, such efforts were recognized as helping to make SMU the “educational surprise of the decade, if not the century,” following its opening in 1915. The modernization of SMU football stadia involves construction and renovation of facilities from Armstrong Field (1915) to Gerald J. Ford Stadium (current).

Abstract:
Reorganization efforts within colleges and universities are increasingly considered as institutions look for ways to streamline operations for financial cost savings or competitive advantage. The purpose of this study was to assess a particular change effort in a university library which took place between August, 1996 and July, 1997. A team was formed to manage the change effort, and an outside consultant was hired to facilitate the process and guide the team. Stufflebeam's evaluation model was used as a conceptual framework to evaluate the entire process which included a particular change management model brought in by the consultant. The entire change effort was described by the author as a participating member of the team and assessed by gathering feedback from team members, library staff members affected by the effort, and members of the library administration.

Full text
Abstract:
As learners gravitate to institutions that provide distance education over the Internet, libraries should respond with 21" century technology that delivers optimal support. Currently, there exists no coherent and succinct work to assist a library manager in developing and evaluating an efficient method to deliver electronic library resources and services to an electronic distance education CEDE) global market. The goal of this study was to propose a model that appropriated technology in a seamless and easy manner to provide library support to off-campus users. A variation of the Quality Functional Deployment (QFD) methodology was used to administer surveys to students and faculty of Southern Adventist University, Collegedale, Tennessee. Based on the results of the survey, the author developed a graphical interface that integrates both asynchronous and interactive synchronous library support via the Internet. Usability principles of human computer interaction (HCI) were used to design the graphical interface, or homepage. The main menu and toolbar of each online course contained hyperlinks to the homepage. This flexible arrangement provides for user convenience as it prevents users from having to exit their course work and be reauthorized to access library support. The QFD methodology was preserved in the development of learners' interim-and-post course evaluation tools, and is the means that fosters the continuation of QFD for improvement during the lifetime of the university's distance education program. The tools attempt to measure the quality of the method of delivery and the quality of performance and instruction provided by the library. The results of the evaluations may serve as documentation for accrediting bodies to review when assessing equivalency of off-campus library support to on-campus library support, as stipulated by the current guidelines of Association of Colleges and Research Libraries (ACRL). The author developed a concise practitioner's manual in conjunction with the library model. The manual is a blend of theory and practicality. Each step of the developmental phase of the electronic model can be easily understood by novice librarians who may be endeavoring to launch electronic service or by librarians who wish to update an existing service by integrating 21" century technology. It may be improvised to fit the missions of libraries and their respective parent organizations' strategic planning. The information will assist eager librarians to design a workable strategy when the task to deliver global electronic library support is imminent and limited time is a factor.

Abstract:
HAVEN FOR ALL HUNGRY SOULS: THE INFLUENCE OF THE AFRICAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH AND THE SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION OF COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS ON MORRIS BROWN COLLEGE By Serena Celeste Wilson Morris Brown College is a small, private historically Black college located near downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The College is the only post-secondary institution in Georgia founded by Blacks for the purpose of educating Blacks. The relationship between Morris Brown College, and the African Methodist Episcopal Church and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools presents an untapped area of research regarding the how external regulatory and fiscal contributing bodies influence the internal mission, culture and management of an institution of higher education. Morris Brown College presents a unique case because, since its founding, it has maintained a close affiliation with the Church that established it. Yet, in recent years, its financial existence has been dependent upon the receipt and use of public funding—which is intricately tied to accrediting standards and oversight. In 2003 the College lost its accreditation. This study employs an ethnographic case-study qualitative research design to explore how the College’s relationship with these bodies influenced the institution’s organizational structure, fiscal management, and administrative culture and identity. The study’s findings indicate that the College’s relationship with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools was largely reflective of the values, ideals, and perspectives of who represented the College at any given time. The College’s relationship with its founding body, the African Methodist Episcopal Church, was primarily maintained through the placement of Church members (largely clergy) on the College’s board of trustees, and evidenced in the College’s ideology and mission. Although an autonomous operating body, the College’s relationships with these two bodies are complicated by the institution’s reliance on continued financial support from the Church, and validation (in the form of accreditation) from SACS. While healthy working relationships with both bodies are not mutually exclusive, the internal planning, governance, and evaluation of the College must necessarily consider the values and expectations of these (and other) external entities.

Readers get information from Library electronic resources is the most direct and convenient approach. Without a doubt, the service of electronic resources should be provided by library. However, expenditure on electronic resources is costly and the academic library budget is deficient. It is hard for library to obtain more budgets in order to subscribe to electronic resources as library only considers the aspect of user-orientation needs. Therefore, it is useful for a library to obtain budget by analyzing cost-benefit of electronic resources to prove that electronic resources can create value for researchers and university. This study was conducted by following three ways to evaluate the cost-benefit of electronic resources: 1. Applying Contingent Valuation Method to study the Willingness to Pay for electronic resources and speculate about the return on investment. 2. Using the Library Value Calculator of MLA to evaluate the average usage price of electronic resources and compare with the price of interlibrary. 3. Applying the assessment model of UIUC to evaluate how many tangible benefits of off-campus research funding programs that researchers can get via using library electronic resources. The participants in this study are users at Southern Taiwan University Library. The main results are described as follows: 1. The findings indicate that users are concerned about the range of electronic resources instead of English ability. 2. It is found that users show high levels of satisfaction with STUT Library electronic databases. 3. It is found that NT$1.05 – NT$1.75 revenue is generated for NT$1 invested in STUT library electronic resources services. 4. By using the assessment model of UIUC, it receives NT$3.94 in return for NT$1 invested in STUT library electronic. 5. By using the Library Value Calculator of MLA, it receives NT$6.52 in return for NT$1 invested in STUT library electronic resources services.

Abstract:
This dissertation is a study of the mission of the Women's Manyano in the Methodist Church of Southern Africa, beginning from 1907 to 1997. It focuses on the barriers and successes this organisation has experienced during the years of its mission. It also examines the history of the formation and objectives of the organisation especially within the structures of the church. It attempts to analyse the reaction of the hierarchy of the church in order to understand why the organisation had no representation at executive meetings at the national level for a very long time. It will compare similarities and differences between the organisations that are within the church and the influence that it has on other organisations inside and outside the church. The organisation did not agree when the church called for the unification of all the churchwomen's organisations. Manyano saw this as a call to its downfall because they had no real similarities with other women's organisations within the church. Although the Women's Manyano is the largest in the church, her representation at national conferences was still minima. At the same time the church proclaim a message of Priesthood of all believers. Women's Manyano is the backbone of the Methodist Church of Southern Africa. Without such an organisation the church could not have grown very fast.

In recent years, with the development of information network technology and the popularization of mobile devices, the channels for readers to access and use knowledge and information have become more diverse, and they no longer need to go to the library to find information. The library must cater to the development of the times and keep pace with the times. In order to further enhance the function of the university library, re-understanding the needs of users in the digital age is an urgent issue that researchers are eager to explore. This study takes teachers and students of a Vocational university in Southern Taiwan as the research objects, to understand the needs and influential factors of teachers' and students' usage of University Library. A semi-structured interview method is used in the research. A total of 6 teachers and 20 students were interviewed. The interview outline includes Library Use Purposes, Reading and Utilization of Library Resources, Barrier Factors of Use of Library and Open Questions. Based on the findings of the research, further suggestions would be provided for both the library and future researchers.

Moshoeshoe-Chadzingwa, Matseliso M. "Performance assessment of technical reports as a channel of information for development : a Lesotho case study." Thesis, 2002. http://hdl.handle.net/10413/3722.

Full text
Abstract:
The study aims to assess performance of Technical Reports as a channel of information for development in the Lesotho context. It concurrently evaluates how a specialized information unit of the Institute of Southern African Studies (lSAS) has performed in its obligation to devise adequate mechanisms for managing the report literature and meeting the development-related needs of users. In order to achieve that aim, the study contextualized development as a process, state, and condition and highlighted some development indicators for Lesotho. Agriculture and gender were selected as sectors of development. Global conferences, as one of the many development strategies that generate technical reports heavily, were used as a benchmark. In the performance and impact assessment methodologies, case study techniques were applied with ISAS as a site and one unit ofanalysis. Technical Reports (TRs) on Lesotho were studied. Triangulation approaches were applied in sourcing data. The academics, information workers, government officials, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and aid agencies based in Lesotho were surveyed. Research questions that guided the study centred on the productivity, distribution of technical reports, their management by intermediaries, use, non-use and the effects thereon. Seven types ofTechnical Reports feature in the development process, namely Academic, Project, Conference, Survey, Enquiry, Official and Special Committee Reports. Technical Reports are produced at varying levels depending on needs and approaches to development by producers or commissioning bodies. Academic Reports are authored mostly by the academics. The Government, Aid agencies and NGOs produce widely through external consultants/experts, who utilize centres such as ISAS where commissioning bodies do not have information services. TRs productivity is high and diverse in Lesotho, but capacity to manage the output is seemingly low, and hence under-utilization results; ISAS's out-dated mission, lack of, or limited resources and dejure national support in the form of acts and statutes affect the Institute's Technical Reports' services. Production is gender biased, thus making for imbalance in reporting on development. Agriculture as a sector is heavily researched and reported about, but the benefits to the populace are either few or non-existent. Restricted materials are estimated at 30%, but most ofthe TRs are unaccounted for. Hoarding and poor records or information management leave a vacuum that leads to a duplication of previous studies and production. The study confirmed that technical reports are required by all the surveyed groups. Technical Reports are not ofa transient nature even though they reach a peak oftopicality and use at certain periods. Where the channel conveys factual data timeously, there are developmental benefits. Low or non-use is common where there are no specialized information services especially within the civil service. Such negative factors cause delays and infrequent currency, inadequate reporting and erroneous budgetary allocations, for example. Seeminglythere is no clarity on what restricted, secret and limited materials mean. Major recommendations were made. One concerned an integrated approach to managing the channel. This would involve preparing a Manual for the production of Technical Reports which would clarify how to prepare them; for instance, the caliber of personneVexperts who should author reports, the conditions to be observed, the timeliness production, reliability of data used, and centres that would be acknowledged to then qualify for commensurate financial and other support. The other proposes that the envisaged National Research Council be given the powers to enforce the guidelines ofthe manual and related functions. The last recommends assigning to the documentalistsfor classified Technical Reports, the role of managing classified items. Consideration should also be given to important issues raised in the study, being the role of Information, Communication and Technologies (lCTs), sectors of development to be attended to, training and networking in technical report\s. Further studies are also recommended mainly for the causes and effects of the closures of information services that managed technical reports' in southern Africa; longitudinal studies on the impact of non-use oftechnical reports in major sectors ofdevelopment like Agriculture; comparative studies on the impact of specialized centres in the developed and developing countries. Further action is urged under the aegis ofbodies like the Standing Conference ofEastem, Central and Southern African Librarians (SCECSAL), Standing Conference of National and University Librarians.

Abstract:
Concern has been raised over low research output from universities in Southern Africa and its poor visibility on the global sphere. However, public universities in Zimbabwe adopted open access (OA) institutional repositories (IR) to increase publication output, access, visibility, and reach to a wide audience. This chapter reports on a study that explored the challenges faced by academics and librarians in Zimbabwe's public universities in contributing to and managing the IRs. A mixed methods approach was adopted with eight participating universities where directors of research, library directors, faculty/IR librarians, and academics were purposely selected. The study identified several impediments to the success of the IRs and these include academics' fears and misconceptions regarding OA and IRs, libraries experienced difficulties convincing university managers about OA exacerbated by an absence of enabling conditions to promote IR development. The chapter recommends that OA education needs to be intensified OA/IR and the universities' policies should recognise publication in OA platforms and enforce deposit mandates.

His attitudes about gospel music and race were deeply influenced by formative events from his childhood, including family attendance in Methodist churches, racism and lynching near his home, early experiences playing the trombone, and a close relationship with his brothers. While studying at Ohio Wesleyan University he led football cheers and blackface minstrel shows, then led congregational singing at local revival meetings. In 1905 he began traveling as music director for the W. E. Biederwolf revivals, a position that led to national notice

Crises are described at Clinton High in Tennessee, Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas, the Universities of Mississippi and Alabama, Tuskegee High School in Alabama, and Clemson University in South Carolina as well as the courage of the Reverends Turner, Boggs, Cartwright, Ogden, Campbell, Gray, Davis, Sellers, Morris, Cousins, Lyles, Jackson, and Webster at these locations. It includes statements in support of the decision by the governing boards of major religious denominations, twenty-eight young ministers of the Mississippi Methodist Conference, and contributors to South Carolinians Speak, a booklet on moderation. Later the Supreme Court backed away from enforcing school integration. Scholars Wright, Jacoway, Wolters, Bell, Higgins, and Snider comment.

Abstract:
Almost every major American denomination experienced controversy sometime between 1870 and World War I. These were responses to modern cultural views and to liberal or modernist developments in biblical interpretation or theology. In the South, the controversies were generally short-lived, with conservatives prevailing. For instance, Southern Presbyterian and Southern Methodist controversies led to banning teaching biological evolution of humans. In the North, the greatest controversies were within the large Presbyterian and Baptist denominations. In the Northern Baptist Convention, the divinity school at the University of Chicago became a center for “modernist” teachings. Meanwhile, the dominant conservative party was relatively moderate. That is illustrated in the theology of Augustus Strong.

Abstract:
Focus now shifts to George T. Gould, one of the men who assaulted Green on the train in 1883. Born in North Carolina in 1842, he moved with his family to Louisville in 1853. He attended Kentucky University in Harrodsburg, preparing for a ministerial career in the Southern Methodist Church. He obtained his preaching license in 1861. When the Confederates began their brief incursion into Kentucky in August 1862 he considered joining them but opted for the church instead. He married Ella Fullenwider in 1865, but the marriage soon turned sour. He had several adulterous affairs, often with black servants, and became an alcoholic He served various pastorates in Kentucky before coming to Maysville in 1871. In September 1872, he began looking for a different way of making a living.

Abstract:
Abstract Transparency is an important characteristic that has to be achieved in a haptic interface. In an exoskeletal device, this requirement translates into an active compensation scheme that renders a massless mechanism. Specifically, one has to balance gravitational, Coriolis, and inertia forces/torques of the mechanical structure. The success of such compensation methods strictly relies on an effective identification of the system parameters that appear in the dynamic equations of the interface. In this paper we apply a novel parameter identification method that achieves this task. We conduct a set of experiments to evaluate the transparency of the Pneumatic Haptic Interface (Φ) developed in the Systems Laboratory at Southern Methodist University.

Full text
Abstract:
Canceling the Big Deal is becoming more common, but there are still many unanswered questions about the impact of this change and the fundamental shift in the library collections model that it represents. Institutions like Southern Illinois University Carbondale and the University of Oregon were some of the first institutions to have written about their own experience with canceling the Big Deal several years ago, but are those experiences the norm in terms of changes in budgets, collection development, and interlibrary loan activity? Within the context of the University of California system’s move to cancel a system-wide contract with Elsevier, how are libraries managing the communication about Big Deals both internally with library personnel as well as externally with campus stakeholders? Three R1 libraries (University of Maryland, University of Oklahoma, and Kansas State University) will compare their data, discuss both internal and external communication strategies, and examine the impact these decisions have had on their collections in terms of interlibrary loan and collection development strategies. The results of a brief survey measuring the status of the audience members with respect to Big Deals, communication efforts with campus stakeholders, and impacts on collections will also be discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Deciding whether to support discovery of unsubscribed and Open Access (OA) content raises questions for technical and public services librarians, from the philosophical to the pragmatic. Doing so requires careful curation and monitoring of resources, and benefits from library-wide input. This paper describes the process at Georgia Southern University for vetting unsubscribed and OA resources with ILL and liaison librarians for inclusion in the discovery layer and on the A-Z database list. For the discovery layer, this involves a three-step evaluation of collections for overall metadata quality, likelihood of ILL fulfillment, and value to the library collection. For the database list, this involves an evaluation of how liaison librarians integrate sources into reference and instruction. In each case, technical services, ILL, and liaison librarians weigh in on whether unsubscribed and OA content merits inclusion in the library collection. Furthermore, ILL and liaison librarians play a critical role monitoring these resources for continued inclusion and support.

Abstract:
The study aims to examine postgraduate dissertations in the areas of social entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship in tourism and entrepreneurship in tourism published in Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States through bibliometric analysis. For this purpose, a total of 126 doctoral dissertations published between 2015-2020 were reached through Proquest Dissertations, YÖK National Dissertations Center, EThOS British Library and EBSCO Dissertations databases. The obtained dissertations were discussed in line with parameters of country where the dissertations were prepared, type of the dissertations, publication year of the dissertations, title of the dissertation’s supervisor, university where the dissertations were prepared, field of study of the dissertations, and research method used in the dissertations. In conclusion, it was found that Turkey was behind the United Kingdom and the United States in terms of quantity of doctoral dissertations published about social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship in tourism. Social entrepreneurship in tourism has been found to be a current issue that needs to be researched and has a large literature gap for all three countries.
