  • Bickley & Corrall (2011) E-Print
    Corrected pre-print, February 2011 Accepted for Reference Services Review, 39 (2) Student perceptions of staff in the Information Commons: a survey at the University of Sheffield Rachel Bickley Library Services, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK Sheila Corrall Information School, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK Abstract Purpose – Technology has transformed teaching and learning environments in tertiary education, introducing new collaborative library spaces and developing the roles and skills of library staff. Academic libraries need continually to re-examine their services to ensure they meet student needs. The current survey aimed to discover how students perceived staff in the Information Commons (IC) and whether their perceptions of staff attitudes and skills influenced their use of library resources. Design/methodology/approach – A questionnaire containing closed and open questions was distributed electronically to undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of Sheffield, obtaining 250 responses (c1% of the student population). Findings – The results showed that most students were unable to distinguish different groups of staff, were unaware of their departmental librarian and did not recognise the academic role of librarians. However, those who had sought assistance in the IC or attended classes delivered by librarians had positive views of their experiences. Research limitations – The timing and fixed duration of the study limited the size and nature of the sample, the generalizability of the findings and depth of the investigation, but sufficient data were collected to establish patterns of behaviour and identify important factors. Practical implications – Low awareness among students of the expertise of librarians and their capacity to provide academic support indicates a need for more promotion to ensure library resources are properly utilised.

  • Thermal Memory and Transition in Lobby Spaces
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Energy Procedia 62 ( 2014 ) 502 – 511 6th International Conference on Sustainability in Energy and Buildings SEB-14 Thermal memory and transition in lobby spaces Gloria A Vargasa *, Fionn Stevensona aThe University of Sheffield - School of Architecture,The Arts Tower , Western Bank , Sheffield S10 2TN, United Kingdom Abstract This paper investigates people’s short term thermal history in transitional lobby spaces. It sets out the first stage for exploring the possibility that repeated short term experiences can modify people’s long term thermal history and thermal memory towards a better thermal adaptation. Data from 50 lobby spaces in Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in the UK was collected in order to identify lobby typologies. Fieldwork was carried out during the summer of 2013 in three different buildings in Sheffield, UK. Surveys involved 610 questionnaires along with simultaneous environmental monitoring at four specific points and two sequences of spaces from exterior to an interior environment. People’s thermal perception was analysed in space sequences with lobby and without lobby. Methodology and initial results are presented in this paper. Outcomes suggest that people’s thermal perception can be altered over short periods of time. Temperature differences from one space to another, temperature sequences and direction are the main factors affecting people’s thermal memory in the short term. The paper provides valuable insights on the key factors that impact upon people´s adaptation and tolerance to changing thermal experiences. © 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Rosemary Boucher, Bob’s widow, commented, “Through the pages of this magazine I would like to thank all those who have contributed to this scholarship fund in memory of Bob. It means a great deal to my children and me that he was remembered by so many people. We hope that the scholarships will help the next generation of Sheffield students to get the most out of a university which Bob loved.” Professor Bob Boucher’s association with Sheffield spanned nearly 40 years. During his time as Vice- Chancellor, he was instrumental in some of the University’s biggest successes. He spearheaded a range of innovative schemes designed to boost the regional economy, such as the Sheffield Bioincubator, the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre with Professor Bob Boucher CBE, FREng. Boeing and the Rolls-Royce Factory of the Future. And the University’s estate was transformed under his leadership, including the stunning £23 million library and IT centre, the Information Commons, and the £160 million student residences at Endcliffe and Ranmoor.

The publication provides a glimpse into an interesting period in the University’s history with the rapid expansion of the campus and halls of residence. The eyewitness accounts of the range and quality of bands promoted by the Students’ Union are wonderful testimony to the importance of Sheffield as a city of music. And the activities of students during the Rag Parade and Boat Race would create panic in the Health and Safety Executive if repeated today. I wish to thank everyone who responded so generously with their time and sent us their recollections and photos.
