Abstract:
Purpose – This aim of this report is to summarize how Google Sites can be used as an open-source, intuitive, and robust solution for designing an intranet system for a unique library department. Michigan Publishing is a department within the University of Michigan (U-M) campus library system that also includes a revenue-based operation as the U-M Press. The need for a central documentation system has become apparent to organize and streamline policies and procedures in this unique library department. Google Sites was chosen as a solution to compile departmental documentation and serve as a collaborative space for the many units within Michigan Publishing. Design/methodology/approach – One librarian and one graduate student intern worked on this project for 5-10 hours a week over the course of three months. Michigan Publishing managers created an inventory showing all existing informational resources in the department, and were then interviewed about these resources. An initial “landing page” was created for this Google-based site, and more comprehensive content has since been migrated from existing informational resources to this central site. Findings – A specific Google Sites Staff Intranet for Michigan Publishing has been an integral solution for providing a one-stop, central area for current internal resources. It also fosters a sense of departmental identity and community, since there are many separate units within the department, each with a different focus and place within the larger library system. This site provides an online forum for collaboration, communication and policy codification. Originality/value – This report summarizes how Google Sites can be used as an open-source, intuitive, and robust solution for designing an intranet system for a unique library department.

Abstract:
Within the United States and around the world, universities are increasingly sending their graduate students abroad. But we know relatively little about the learning derived from these international experiences or how they contribute to graduate-level education. Researchers at Michigan State University have begun to explore this “black box” of internationalization, providing some answers and raising more questions.

Abstract:
Information technology is constantly changing, and if academic users are to make best use of these resources, they must sustain efficient information-seeking behaviour. This study explores the information-seeking behaviour of graduate students at Kuwait University, and investigates the factors influencing that behaviour. The population also includes faculty members engaged in teaching and supervising graduate students, and academic librarians. Adopting Wilson's information-seeking model (1999) as the theoretical framework, the study identifies factors influencing graduate students' information behaviour and formulates hypotheses that illustrate the relationship between the different variables. The use of this model provides useful insights into determinants of the information-seeking behaviour patterns of students in a multidisciplinary graduate context. The research uses a mixed method approach, comprising questionnaire survey, focus groups and semi-structured interviews. Application of the Critical Incident Technique method provided in-depth data about the patterns of information-seeking behaviour of both graduate students and faculty members. Logistic regression revealed that significant factors related to library awareness, information literacy, organisational and environmental issues, source characteristics, and demographics act as determinants of the patterns of students' information-seeking behaviour. Uneasiness on the part of graduate students towards using the library and consulting its personnel reflects a broader negative perception of the role of the library in shaping students' information-searching patterns. The clearest finding that emerged from the analysis of the students' information literacy dimension was that the majority of graduate students still face difficulties in finding the appropriate information resources, particularly when using resources that need advanced search strategies. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses revealed a heavy reliance on the information resources that require least effort (search engines, Internet websites, and personal contacts). Further, results revealed that graduate students are overwhelmed by an information overload, which leads them to become anxious about finding the appropriate information resources. Based on the results of the research, recommendations are made to further explore the information-seeking behaviour patterns of graduate students in order to enhance their information literacy skills. Improving information-seeking behaviour and enhancing the information literacy of students require interventions on various fronts: faculty members, academic librarians, the university administration, and graduate students themselves.

Abstract:
As academic libraries continue to evolve as service organizations, they should focus on their users. This calls for a better understanding of the specific needs of library users in order to provide the appropriate type and level of service that meets those needs. The overriding goal will be user satisfaction. In this study, a survey was used to determine the levels of satisfaction of post-graduate education students with library services at the University of Transkei. A questionnaire was administered to 100 post-graduate education students registered in 1998 of which 57 responded. The most important finding that emerged from the analysis of the responses was that the majority of the respondents were in general satisfied with the library services offered at UNITRA. However, dissatisfaction was expressed by at least twenty percent of respondents with noise levels, opening hours, lack of photocopiers, the accuracy of the library catalogue, materials being in their correct place, inefficient staff and interloans. It was found that respondents were reluctant to commit themselves to expressing high levels of satisfaction or dissatisfaction. Suggestions made by respondents included computerization and the need for staff training. Recommendations based on the findings were then made followed by suggestions for further research.

This study aims to measure the support rate of library collections at Tunghai University’s Management College Branch Library to the citation literature of its graduate students’ dissertations and theses. After a detail discussion of different kinds of collection evaluation techniques, the author decided to use citation analysis to evaluate the collections of the Management College Branch Library of Tunghai University. This study acquired dissertation and thesis bibliography samples from the Management College of Tunghai University for the preceding three years (August 1, 2008 to July 31, 2011), analyzing a total of 234 samples, and using citation analysis to analyze the bibliographies which were attached to their papers. The bibliographical references were divided into four different collection types: books, journals, e-books and e-journals, and then were list-checked in the library catalogue of Tunghai University to discover the library collection support rate of the citation literature. The study was guided by the research purpose and research questions. It was organized through citation analysis procedures, such as the quantification of data and statistical analysis using the SPSS software package, after which the findings were summarized. The results are summarized as follows: (1) This study selected 234 dissertation and thesis bibliography samples for research and analyzed 12,031 bibliographical references in total. Every dissertation or thesis cited 51.4 bibliographical references on average. Most of the bibliographical references, which number 4,896, came from the bibliography of Department of Business Administration. The lesser part, amounting to 960, came from the bibliography of the Department of Statistics. This study exclusively analyzed data from cited bibliographical references in books, journals, e-books, and e-journals, which brought the total number of analyzed citations to 6,251. The majority of them are from Department of Accountancy, totalling 1,856; the lesser part came from the Department of Statistics, which had only 400 bibliographical references. (2) The graduate students of the Management College of Tunghai University cited approximately 40.4% of the collections published during 2000-2010, while in the years preceding 1970 they cited only 4.0%. They cited 78.8% of the Chinese language collections published between 2000-2010, and cited only 0.3% of the collections published before 1970. They also cited 36.3% of English language collections published between 1990-1999, and cited only 0.3% of the English language collections published before 1970. (3) Most of the references cited by the graduate students of the Management College of Tunghai University were published in English language. (4) The highest collection support rate among the four types of library collections of the Tunghai University Management College Branch Library in the dissertation and thesis citation literature is for e-journals, reaching up to 43%; the next is journals, 18.2%；and then books, 8.6%; the lowest collection support rate is for e-books, which stands at only 0.4%. (5) When divided by different graduate schools , the highest collection support rate of books is EMBA, reaching up to 18.1%; the highest collection support rate of journals is Department of Accountancy, 27.1%; the highest collection support rate of e-books is Department of Statistics, 1.3%; the highest collection support rate of e-journals is Department of Finance, reaching up to 82.7%。 (6) The Department of Finance has the highest collection support rate among the graduate schools of Management College of Tunghai University, reaching up to 93.3%; followed by the Department of Accountancy(77.3%); the Department of International Business(68.2%); the Department of Business Administration(61.9%)；the EMBA department (53.9%)；while the Department of Statistics has the lowest collection support rate, at only 55.0%. (7) The collection support rate of the Chinese language collections in the graduate schools of the Management College of Tunghai University is approaching 61.6%; the collection support rate for the period 2000-2010 is 49.6%; and for the years before 1970 is the lowest, at only 0.1%. The collection support rate of English language collections in the graduate schools of the Management College of Tunghai University is nearly 72.0%; the collection support rate for the period 1990-1999 is 26.5%; and for the years before 1970 is the lowest, only at 2.7%. (8) In the graduate schools of the Management College of Tunghai University, the Department of Finance has the highest collection support rate among the most highly cited books and periodicals, notably 76%, while EMBA has the lowest, only at 16%. (9) The Management College of Tunghai University is supposed to maintain 12 Chinese core journal collections and 34 English core journal collections. (10)The Department of Accountancy possesses ten Chinese core journal collections while the Department of Statistics has none. Not enough samples of the Chinese language citation literatures of the Department of Statistics were collected to be grouped into three sections according to Bradford’s Law. The Department of Accountancy owns 32 English core journal collections while the Department of Finance only owns 3 English core journal collections. Based on the results of this research, this study offers some advices : (1) Evaluate library collections on a regular basis. (2) Implement library collection expenses distribution rate. (3)Establish core collections of various graduate schools. (4)Think highly of the relation on support and need between core collections and academic research.

ABSTRACT The purposes of this study were: (1) To investigate the characteristics of scholarly literature used by the graduate students of Department of Law of Soochow University for their theses. (2) To evaluate the satisfaction degree on how library collections support the graduate students research at the Department of Law of Soochow University. (3) The result of this study could be used to assist Soochow University Library in law collection development. The 258 theses studied generated a total of 34,306 citations. Types of materials cited, language and currency of literature were all analyzed. The results of this study indicated that: (1) Monographs and journal articles were cited mostly. (2) The majority of citations were to Chinese materials, English materials were cited less than Chinese. The citations in Japanese, Germany and French are obviously on the low side. (3) Generally speaking, materials published in 20 years were the main demand. (4) Law books and legal periodicals were the main demand. Case law and regulations were cited, but there were not amount to much. About one-third of the citations were “Non-legal materials”. (5) 91.5% of the citations were from printing materials, only 8.5% from the digital materials. It showed that the graduate students relied mostly on printing materials for their research. (6) The library could only provide 59.8% of the required collections under exact match; and could provide 67.1% of the required collections under partial match. Suggestions of improving services of Soochow University Library as follows: (1) To enrich the collection to fulfill the teaching and research needs of Soochow University. (2) To make good use of resources sharing through the “Interlibrary Loan” , which can make up for the shortage of collections . (3) To emphasize on iii information services to meet the research needs. (4)To increase in legal journal subscription. (5)A formal collection policy should be established in Soochow University Library. (6) To Coorperate with the Department of Law to promote the use of electronic resources.

Abstract:
This study examines the key factors influencing health sciences graduate students' perceived access to scholarly scientific information and use of electronic resources available on the Web for research purposes in Colombia. Four dimensions were considered in the proposed model as the central ones influencing the information searching process: the student; the library; the scholarly scientific information; and the information and communication technology (ICT). Using self-administered questionnaires, data was gathered from 886 graduate students in the three main public universities in Colombia---Universidad de Antioquia, Universidad del Valle and Universidad Nacional Using factor analysis, twenty-seven factors were obtained to explain the four dimensions. The key factors found in this investigation supported previous studies stating that Publishers' restrictions to access to scholarly scientific information, inadequate access to the Internet; lack of support for interlibrary loans; poor remote access to library services; and students' limitations in literacy and English skills are the key barriers to taking full advantages of the benefits of using ICT in academic environments Additionally, multiple regressions were conducted to test the hypotheses stated. Results supported the three hypotheses: (1) Internet and language skills; access to Internet, computer and printers; and perceived level of library services had significant effects in the students' perceptions about their access to scholarly scientific information; (2) research skills and access to Internet are positively related to the students' use of online resources for research purposes; and (3) there is a positive relationship between the students' perceived access to scholarly scientific information and their use of electronic resources available on the Web General results showed students' English and research skills as very strongly related to the use of peer-reviewed scientific information written in languages other than Spanish. Results provide directions to policy-makers, universities staff, librarians and students to focus their efforts on those key factors by implementing new programs to empower research among graduate students and, in that way, to improve research in universities and at the national level

This research investigated the problem of multiple bibliographic interfaces that end-users face when conducting searches. A situation analysis was conducted which provided a profile of the situation under investigation. Based on the results of the analysis an end-user training programme for adoption by subject reference librarians at the University of the North Library with regard to bibliographic CD-ROM databases is formulated. This programme is proposed to address problems that end-users experience with these databases and in the process to improve their search abilities. Finally, areas for further investigation with regard to the situation, learner and learning situation are also suggested.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to provide insights into the information seeking behaviors and needs of graduate students of Management Sciences at the Centre for Operations Excellence, University of British Columbia. The study describes major aspects of the information seeking patterns taking into account the whole phenomena: from the nature of the original situation where and when the need was recognized, to the characteristics of the information seeker, to the providers which were consulted and degrees of success. Using the case-study method and the sense-making approach, data were gathered through logs, interviews, and a questionnaire. Verbal protocols helped to delve and probe into the qualitative aspects of the search behavior resulting in a model for the search process. Findings revealed that the students went through six stages during their research: [1] Task defining, [2] Focus forming, [3] Monitoring and reviewing, [4] Selecting and sieving, [5] Interpreting, and [6] Presenting. Typically, information seeking occurred in context of task achievement which was affected by various factors such as time, cost, prior knowledge, feedback, motivation and experience and perception of students. A user survey demonstrated that [1] informal channels were used more avidly in information seeking than formal channels, [2] information service providers were not consulted on a regular basis, [3] UBC libraries were very rarely used, [4] factors such as time, location, motivation, cost, perception, feedback played an integral role in information seeking and task completion, [5] satisfaction with services of service provider were based on the relevance, currency, timeliness and accuracy of information provided, and [6] usage of information was weighed against the benefit to analysts. Recommendations for action and further study and a service model were the outcomes of the findings.

Abstract:
Graduate students in the humanities increasingly view training in the use of digital tools and methodologies as critical to their success. Graduate students' interest in becoming familiar with digital tools often accompanies their awareness of a competitive academic job market, coupled with a recognition that teaching and research positions increasingly call for experience and skills in the Digital Humanities (DH). Likewise, recent debates over DH's role in the future of humanities scholarship have heightened the sense that DH skills can translate to crucial job skills. While many graduate students receive encouragement from faculty to pursue digital scholarship, individual academic departments often have limited resources to prioritize the development of these skills at the expense of existing curricular components. This chapter looks at initiatives at the University of Michigan Library that demonstrate the ways in which subject librarians, in collaboration with data and technology specialist librarians, can fill this gap by creating opportunities for graduate students to develop DH skills.

Abstract:
All academic libraries strive to have the highest quality collections which their acquisition budgets can support. However, the cost of quality resources continues to regularly increase, typically without corresponding increases in acquisition budgets. Additionally, print resources come with associated storage costs which are less tangible to measure than acquisition costs but which nonetheless have impact on overall library operations and expenditures. Storage and retention costs can have a substantial negative impact on general library usage, relevancy, and budget allocations. This chapter will focus on the management of retaining and weeding print monographs within the medium-sized public academic library and what a group of Michigan public academic libraries are doing to collectively address weeding and retention issues through the preliminary phase of a program called the Michigan Shared Print Initiative (MI-SPI).

Abstract:
Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education in K-12 schools is critical to inspire young students and prepare them for future college coursework and careers in science and engineering. An effective mechanism for creating and sustaining successful STEM education is to train well-qualified K-12 teachers with a positive attitude and deep knowledge skills in STEM fields. Supported by the National Science Foundation’s Research Experience for Teachers program (NSF RET), the RET Site at Michigan State University (MSU) aims to build a multidisciplinary engineering research program for middle and high school teachers and their students, within a coherent theme of “Smart Sensors and Sensing Systems”. This paper presents an introduction to the MSU’s Site program and highlights the learning outcomes and achievements of the RET participants. The MSU Site has four main components including authentic research experience for teachers during an intensive summer program; curriculum development by integrating engineering design units into teachers’ courses; professional skill development through seminars, facility tours, and field trips; and finally classroom implementation of the developed curricula. Throughout the 6-week summer program, teacher participants were given the opportunity to work closely with graduate students and engineering professors on current research projects in university laboratories. The teachers’ research activities culminated with a final poster report and oral presentation during a symposium at the end of the summer program. Follow-up classroom visits helped to build a strong connection between local middle/high schools and MSU to smooth students’ transitions to college. Since 2016, the Site has graduated 21 middle and high school teachers from the greater Lansing-Detroit area that serve large populations of minority and female students. These RET teachers have produced over 24 sets of curriculum plans and classroom activities, 3 sets of which have been published by an online digital library, TeachEngineering.org (TE), and 8 sets of which have been accepted by TE. Finally, from the findings of the RET Site, the paper discusses best practices and recommendations for incorporating teachers into a university laboratory setting.

Full text
Abstract:
A new dual-campus subject librarian program is being rolled out at the University of Central Florida (UCF) whereby several subject librarians divide their time between two campuses, the legacy main campus in East Orlando and the new Downtown Orlando Campus. As of Fall 2019, four UCF subject librarians regularly travel to the new Downtown Campus to provide library support for academic programs, faculty, and students who recently relocated to the new facility. Dual-campus subject librarians are also maintaining support services for their assigned academic programs that remain at the UCF Main Campus. This article provides information and reflections about how the dual-campus subject librarian model operates and how it impacts staff duties from two perspectives. The first perspective is from the UCF Social Sciences subject librarian, who supports graduate and undergraduate programs in The School of Public Administration and Public Affairs graduate programs at the Downtown Campus, as well as graduate and undergraduate programs in Politics, Security & International Affairs and Criminal Justice at the Main Campus. The second perspective is from the Main Campus Head of the Research and Information Services Department, who supervises the dual-campus subject librarians.

Abstract:
In 2019, MIT Press and University of Michigan Press launched their own ebook collections for direct sale to libraries. Nearly a year has gone by. In that year, three basic truths have emerged and continue to guide them on this journey: 1. Establish Principles - Our principles must be our central reference point. We must innovate by taking a “values-based” approach not just a solely “value-based” selection process. 2. Embrace Exploration, Agility and Humility - We are perpetual searchers and seekers, always novices and beginners. Transformation comes from discovering the right questions more than having the right answers. 2. Take Action - We cannot think ourselves into new ways of acting, rather we act ourselves into a new way of thinking. Impactful change will only happen when we take risks, focus on people, and shift from monologue to dialogue when engaging with the communities we serve. How did they come to these truths? What are the prospects for each of their individual endeavors? Why should libraries care? In this paper, representatives of the two presses will tell their respective stories about this last year’s adventures. We they share why they chose to work directly with libraries, what they expected after launching their new collections, as well as divulge what reality actually dealt them.

Abstract:
This paper provides specific examples of sustainability education programs within the engineering curriculum at The University of Michigan at Ann Arbor (UM). These programs exist at the undergraduate, Masters, and Ph.D. levels of education. At the undergraduate level, a basic literacy program has been initiated to give each graduating mechanical engineer from UM the understanding required to make design decisions less impacting on the environment. The program is designed as an educational thread consisting of three (3) course modules corresponding to each of three required courses in the Design and Manufacturing sequence in the mechanical engineering department. To compliment the thread, a new joint course between mechanical and environmental engineering in Environmentally Sustainable Engineering is under development to serve as the cornerstone undergraduate course in environmental education for the UM College of Engineering (CoE). At the Masters level, the ConsEnSus (Concentrations in Environmental Sustainability) Program is described. This program has been introduced to enhance general environmental literacy and to prepare students to integrate environmental principles into professional practice. Similarly, a joint Ph.D. program has also been developed between CoE and the School of Natural Resources and the Environment to prepare students for a career in research and education related to sustainable engineering. Both ConsEnSus and the Ph.D. program are supported by a course entitled Principles of Eco-Design and Manufacturing. This course, and the graduate and undergraduate programs it supports, is part of a college-wide effort to make Sustainable Systems Engineering a reality in practice by disseminating operational definitions of sustainability targeted to specific engineering disciplines.

Abstract:
The University of Michigan Press, with support from the Mellon Foundation, asked John Lavender, of Lavender Consulting, to conduct a review of the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Humanities E-Book collection (HEB) following its launch on Michigan’s new Fulcrum platform. ACLS-HEB is an online collection of over 5,400 high-quality humanities books from over 100 publishers. Now that the market for e-books has matured, part of the review was a comparative study of e-book platforms run by publishers, university presses and e-book vendors; 17 platforms were selected. The review looked at the key features offered by each platform, how they handled searching, content delivery, displaying results, ability to view and download and other key features, there was no attempt to judge the value of the content. Following this review, Michigan Press felt that it would be beneficial to share the results with the wider community. As well as being of interest to publishers, the review will also be relevant for librarians making purchasing decisions and vendors selling e-book services. In addition to synthesizing the results of the e-book platform review, this paper presents a librarian’s perspectives on e-book assessment criteria. Courtney McAllister, Electronic Resources Librarian at Yale University’s Law Library, describes the importance of attributes such as accessibility compliance, library branding, and metadata. Library collections are shaped by a plethora of concerns and criteria. This paper seeks to outline some key elements to consider as part of e-book platform decision-making.

Full text
Abstract:
Staffing challenges are well-documented in reference services, but the use of dashboards to support data-driven scheduling for in-person and virtual reference shifts are not often discussed. This poster examines how Michigan State University Libraries utilized data-influenced decision-making and dashboard design iterations to streamline reference staffing and adapt to evolving conditions over the course of three years. This required continuous communication between dashboard users and creators and constant iteration of visualizations and designs to ensure dashboards remained relevant and current. Limitations of a purely quantitative data-driven strategy are also discussed at the conclusion of the final year.

Abstract:
If there is one thing all library administrators and managers can be sure of, it is that our space, our collections, our systems and our leadership will be impacted by change. Managing that change is critical if managers, directors, deans in our libraries will be able to continue to meet the needs of our communities with different tools and resources. This lively discussion will feature brief presentations about how libraries at Carnegie Mellon University and at Kresge Business Administration Library (University of Michigan) have changed in recent history. The presenters will include what worked well and what worked not as well at the two institutions. They will focus on two areas. First, Denise Novak will explore change through five key aspects: nature, process, role, culture and staff participation of change. Second, Corey Seeman will explore change as defined by six key terms: inevitability, rapidity, flexibility, hospitality, accountability, and empathy. Participants at the meeting will be invited to share how change is managed at their institutions and what issues might be present or on the horizon.

Abstract:
The George A. Smathers Libraries at the University of Florida (UF) are participating in an innovative program to explore whether making electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) available in print through online retail sites can have positive impacts for graduates, the University, and the general public. Digitization and metadata enhancement have improved discoverability and ease of access for ETDs in the Institutional Repository at the University of Florida (IR@UF). However, through this new program, research can be shared widely beyond academe with practitioners, corporate researchers, independent scholars, and international readers. This paper will describe how the Smathers Libraries have worked with a corporate partner, BiblioLabs, to leverage online retailers’ discovery engines to promote print versions of ETDs while alerting readers to the free digital versions available in the IR@UF. This paper will also share how alumni, current graduate students, and other campus stakeholders have responded to the pilot of this new service. The Libraries are monitoring referred traffic to the IR and sales data. UF is the first university to contribute content to this effort, but we expect others to follow suit if the data supports the expectations of the University, the Libraries, and our graduates.
