  • Implementing Reliable Instant Messaging at Your Library
    Implementing Reliable Instant Messaging at Your Library Karen McCoy Adult Services Librarian Farmington Public Library, NM Some background… More libraries are communicating with patrons in real time over the internet “Online real-time chat reference services have become increasingly prevalent in many types and sizes of libraries” (1). BUT… “Because no IM technology standard has been approved by all the major players, IM has long been problematic to libraries… but newer IM products can help resolve these dilemmas.”(2). 1. Kwon, Nahyun, & Gregory, Vicki L. (2007). The effects of librarians' behavioral performance on user satisfaction in chat reference services. Reference & User Services Quarterly. 47, 137-148, 137. 2.

Chat Software: fee-based, usually only used in businesses and libraries (usually part of a consortium to reduce cost) also referred to as “virtual reference” or “chat reference.” Instant Messaging: FREE to libraries and patrons, more often used by people in their daily lives, generally not platform dependent (1), more compatible in a Web 2.0 environment A recent trend in reference service seems to be a move from use of chat reference software to use of IM (2). 1.

  • Access the Web – IM and SMS for the Circulation Desk
    Access the Web – IM and SMS for the Circulation Desk By June L. Power It’s been well documented in a number of articles regarding the contemporary library patron that with the rise in mobile computing and smart phone technology, our patrons are looking for fast and easy service from whichever technological avenue they are using to access our library services. Libraries are responding with increasing numbers of online resources and online means of assistance. One means of communication that is seeing more widespread use in libraries is the use of instant messaging. Many reference desks, and more and more circulation desks, are using instant messaging as a means of communication regarding a number of different library services. Instead of my usual perusal of a number of web sites on a given topic, in this issue I am instead going to describe the application of a number of free online resources at my library’s circulation desk in order to set up instant messaging communications. There are so many great freeware programs out there, I think it is easy to lose sight of how they can be practically applied. We had for some time been using instant messaging at the reference desk. At first we were using the freeware version of a program called Trillian (www.trillian.im), which can connect to multiple IM services and social networks – allowing you to access all simultaneously without the need to run multiple client programs. It also allows for multiple connections with the same service. After a short time with Trillian, we switched to using Meebo (https://www.meebo.com/messenger), which functions like Trillian but is browser based, so there was no need to download any software.

  • Strategic Performance Measurement for Ebuddy
    Strategic performance measurement for eBuddy May 2007 Graduation thesis of: V.J.M. Hoogsteder Student number 9901795 Business Information Technology Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) University of Twente [email protected] +31 (0) 6 16 376 233 On behalf of: eBuddy Keizersgracht 585 1017 DR Amsterdam +31 (0) 20 514 1430 Under supervision of: P. Bliek (University of Twente, School of Management and Governance, NIKOS group) L. Bodenstaff (University of Twente, faculty of EEMCS, Information Systems group) J.J. Rueb (CEO eBuddy) 1 Management summary Motivation eBuddy management wants to define and implement strategic performance measurement to improve strategic decision making by reducing the necessary time to support decisions and by gaining a solid and complete view on eBuddy’s strategic performance. Recommendations 1) Assess strategic performance with the strategic performance measures identified in eBuddy’s balanced scorecard, as defined in this research; 2) Assign a responsible employee for monthly reporting of the balanced scorecard; 3) Update the balanced scorecard based on changes in strategic objectives; 4) Define desired employee skills and measure these in the balanced scorecard; 5) Develop an information system to present the defined strategic performance measures; 6) Involve business unit directors in strategic performance assessment; 7) Use the balanced scorecard to facilitate problem solving and action planning. Argumentation 1) The eBuddy balanced scorecard is defined according to Kaplan & Norton’s model (Kaplan & Norton 1996). This model provides a comprehensive set of guidelines for definition and implementation of strategic performance measurement and is supported by extensive literature attention. The steps taken towards the definition and implementation of eBuddy’s balanced scorecard were based on the roadmap identified by Assiri et al.
