Source:D-Lib Magazine
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (01/17/2005)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:

"An institutional repository (IR) is an electronic system that captures, preserves, and provides access to the digital work products of a community . In a university setting, an IR may provide a place for faculty work, student theses and dissertations, e-journals, datasets and so on. Whatever the particular focus of the university IR, to be successful it must be filled with scholarly work of enduring value that is searched and cited."

A Report on Librarian-Faculty Relations from a Sociological Perspective
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian

Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2004)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:This paper reviews social science and library studies literatures on librarian-faculty relations, and presents a preliminary sociological analysis of these relations.

An Organizational Model for Instructional Support at a Community College
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:An Organizational Model for Instructional Support at a Community College (ID: CSD3005)
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2003)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:The Instructional and Information Support Services (IISS) division at North Seattle (Wash.) Community College brings together the college's Library, Media Services, and Distance Learning (DL) units, and the Teaching and Learning Center to support instruction campus-wide under a dean with a required MLS. With its active instructional focus, the Library is integral to the division. IISS is also the administrative home of Interdisciplinary Studies. This organizational model promotes interaction, collaboration, and innovation among disparate units that have the same overall goal of fostering teaching excellence and student success. A connection to Internet II and a campus gigabit backbone make possible a variety of advanced technological options to enhance instruction.

Improving Art History Education: Library and Faculty Partnerships in Instructional Technology Development
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Improving Art History Education: Library and Faculty Partnerships in Instructional Technology Development (ID: CSD3006)
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2003)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:This article discusses the provenance of a partnership between the Digital Projects Department (DPD) at Northern Illinois University (NIU) Libraries and NIU's Art History Department that seeks to improve art education at NIU. Academic librarians and other library personnel have unique skills, which along with providing traditional library services, should be utilized to meet instructional and educational challenges. Since DPD has a history of providing access to multimedia content via the Internet, it seemed natural to partner with the art history department to create a tool for accessing slides of artwork via the Web.

Embedding online information resources in Virtual Learning Environments: some implications for lecturers and librarians of the move towards delivering teaching in the online environment
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Embedding online information resources in Virtual Learning Environments: some implications for lecturers and librarians of the move towards delivering teaching in the online environment (ID: CSD2927)
Author(s):Margaret Markland (Manchester Metropolitan University)
Source:Information Research
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2003)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:A short study of the use of online information resources by university lecturers using Virtual Learning Environments as a teaching tool for the first time provided insights into the strategies they use to select those resources, and into some of the difficulties they encountered when using online materials in their teaching. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, and the interview results were then taken to a group of subject librarians and library managers for comment. Skills training emerged as a key issue for both teachers and learners, and some interesting observations were made on the working relationships of lecturing staff and librarians. The study concludes that the need for 'new alliances' frequently raised in current literature is indeed very apparent, but that to be most effective such co-operation may need to be at individual as well as at group level.

Establishing Our Presence in Courseware: Adding Library Services to the Virtual Classroom
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Establishing Our Presence in Courseware: Adding Library Services to the Virtual Classroom (ID: CSD2882)
Author(s):John D. Shank
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2003)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:Course management systems and courseware software are increasingly being used to enhance traditional college courses, yet library resources and services are noticeably missing from this venue. Libraries risk being bypassed by this technology and losing relevance to students and faculty if they do not establish their presence in courseware. Librarians need to be proactive in inserting links to resources and to library assistance within the courseware domain in order to retain visibility, increase relevance with students, and strengthen relationships with faculty
