  • The Role of an Academic Library in Research: Researchers’ Perspectives at a South African University of Technology
    http://sajlis.journals.ac.za 37 The role of an academic library in research: researchers’ perspectives at a South African University of Technology Genevieve Hart1 and Lynn Kleinveldt2 Department of Library and Information Science, University of the Western Cape [email protected]; [email protected] Received: 10 April 2011 Accepted: 5 May 2011 Academic libraries typically identify research support as a central pillar in their mission. But they need to examine how their mission statements relate to the perspectives of researchers themselves, especially in view of reported changes in researchers’ information seeking and sharing in the online environment. By means of a questionnaire survey of 102 full time academic staff at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology, the project examined how researchers use their institution’s library in their research and what their expectations are. For various historical reasons universities of technology lag behind in terms of their research output and in recent years CPUT has prioritised research. This is reflected in the virtual unanimity among the 102 respondents that research is essential to their job despite their heavy teaching loads. Overall, the study finds that most (over 65%) continue to rely on the library for access to print and electronic resources. It finds a heavy emphasis on the traditional functions of an academic library, such as resource and information management. A few gaps emerge between the delivery of library services and researchers’ desires. For example, very few attend the library’s scheduled database training workshops; yet most see database training as one of the library’s key contributions to research.

Recommendations for alterations in the practice of individual libraries are provided. The problem of created integrated community-controlled open infrastructure is considered at length, especially the collective action problem that the library community must overcome. Keywords Academic libraries; Academic library futures; Scholarly communications infrastructure; Collective action problem; Open scholarly commons; Literature review. 1. Introduction In May of 2016, my book, Reimagining the academic library, was published (Lewis, 2016). I finished the writing it some- time in the late fall of 2015. Over three years has passed since then and in those three years there have been significant changes to the world of scholarly communication and academic libraries. In this paper I will review the main points of my book in light of what has happened in the last three years, and lay out what I believe is required of academic libraries going forward.

However, most of the interface provided by the database is Google-like, which is different from the PICO framework. Therefore, this project hopes to create a tool to use the PICO framework to retrieve the most precise literature without having the advance research skill. Description: The concept of interface design is based on PICO framework. With the function of mapping with medical subject heading, it helps users to increase the correctness of search strategy and also revised search strategy simultaneously. In addition, in order to meet the clinical needs, the clinical cases related elements such as age, gender, pregnancy, etc. are also provided in the literature filters; the conditions for selecting evidence-based literature are also provided, such as clinical queries, publication types, language, etc.

  • The Future of the Academic Library Print Collection: a Space for Engagement
    Which books? Where? ... The Future of the Academic Library Print Collection: A Space for Engagement October 2017 This work made possible by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The Future of the Academic Library Print Collection 2 of 50 Introduction Academic libraries seek to engage people with information resources and maximize use of library spaces. When users increasingly rely on digital rather than print resources, libraries respond by shifting space usage from stacks to user working and reading spaces. How then do we, as academic library professionals, best keep print collections on public view and maximize user engagement? In this whitepaper, we focus on fostering engagement with print resources among library users, particularly with open stack1 print collections and users within the local community. We advocate moving toward a more flexible, more user-focused service that makes library collections easier to understand and to use. Libraries need to work with their surrounding communities in the further development and presentation of their collections. We offer a flexible, à la carte approach to transforming open stack academic library print collection management. We have developed a three-tiered system of potential approaches and actions for academic libraries to foster engagement with their collections. We also include materials and tools to help guide individual libraries towards a data-driven approach to print curation that may be tailored to their local context. We hope that these approaches and tools aid academic libraries in helping users engage in meaningful dialogues with print resources. 1 An open stack, or “open-shelf,” system is defined as follows: “of, used in, or constituting a system of library organization in which books are so shelved as to permit direct examination and selection by patrons.” In Merriam-Webster.com.

Faculty of Sciences of University of Coruña - Spain ([email protected]) Abstract University context is nowadays mostly characterized by the implementation of competitiveness and cost-effectiveness criteria. There are two main characteristics of the new management model: a new relevancy to the university funding and the predominance of the research criteria as excellence indicator. Evidence of the growing role of research in universities are the parameters to rank the excellence of higher education institutions, such as ARWU (Academic Ranking of World Universities) of the University of Shangai, SIR (SCImago Institutions Rankings) or the THE (Times Higher Education World University Rankings).
