Scholarly communications and the role of the liberal arts college library By Diane J. Graves University Librarian and Professor Trinity University, San Antonio TX1 A little economic history The conversation on scholarly communication (often referred to as a “crisis”) has its origins in the mid- 1980s. At that time, the balance of trade between the United States and its trading partners in Europe was so far out of balance that American products could not compete internationally. The Reagan Administration, seeking to correct the problem, devalued the dollar at the so-called Plaza Accord on September 22, 1985.i In that moment, the price of journals in many Scientific, Technical, Engineering and Medical (STEM) fields, jumped—in some cases by as much as 25%. Many of the top journals were published by British or European for-profit houses, such as Pergamon, Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, Blackwell’s, Taylor & Francis, and others.

  • Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities
    Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities These are colleges and universities that are not quite “tip of the tongue” schools but are generally regarded as among the best educations in the United States, and are certainly well known to national companies and graduate schools. Some of these schools may not be as “front end” selective as an Ivy or Ivy-Like institution, but don’t confuse selectivity with the educational delivery product. Some schools are moderately selective for a variety of reasons (geography, age, size) but still retain A+ level faculty resources, classroom instruction, and top end exit oriented processes (getting a Job or getting into graduate school). Remember, college is often what YOU make of it and not necessarily what others think your experience should be.

  • Lafayette College: Staying Ahead of the Game
    Vol. 15 LAFAYETTE COLLEGE: STAYING AHEAD OF THE GAME Lafayette College’s football history is as rich as it is varied, from laying claim to the the first use of the helmet in 1896, to the long standing rivalry with nearby Lehigh University dating back to 1884. But these days, it is the Leopards’ future that has taken on even greater importance. With the opening of the Bourger Varsity Football House, Lafayette’s team has entered into a league all its own. The 24,000 square-foot building, part of a $23 million stadium renovation, contains the team’s locker room, strength and conditioning areas, and sports medicine facilities, including a hydrother- apy room. The upper level houses coaches’ offices, each with a flat screen display for reviewing games, several meeting rooms equipped with custom control systems and full presentation capabilities, and one room large enough to accommodate the entire team. That area, which can also be divided into four separate units, features the same level of class- room technology found across the campus. “The experience we have with our smart classroom tech- nology allowed us to easily adapt to this rather unique setting with great results, ” stated E.J. Hudock, Academic Technology Facilities Manager for Lafayette. One of the very special features of the Bourger Varsity Football House is the highly personalized conference room on the second floor. The program- ming team at Vistacom worked with Lafayette to develop special graphic elements for the control system interface such as helmets for source buttons and a log in system utilizing the jersey numbers which are displayed on top of a Leopard’s jersey graphic.
