Tech Talk Digital Transformation Jen Hunter 21 ... Get Involved with LIRT LIRT News 43.2 December 2020 http://www.ala.org/lirt/lirt-news-archives 1 From the Editor As 2020 winds down, I am not sad to see it go. This may be a year for the history books, but it has certainly been a struggle in so many ways. Looking back over the last few months, I want to remember some positive takeaways from the time, and I hope you can do the same. Here are a few of mine: I am much more comfortable teaching online synchronous class sessions than I was a year ago. I have seen a great deal of compassion this semester from faculty and students for one another, and that warms my heart. In some ways, I know more about some of my colleagues than I did before – since I’ve now “met” many of their pets and heard about their stay-at-home hobbies. I now know I am able to adapt to change – so much change! – and roll with the punches and keep going. In this issue of LIRT News several of our instruction colleagues have shared a bit of their wisdom: Nan Carmack provides suggestions for helping volunteer tutors brush up on the technology skills needed for virtual instruction. Sherri Brown, Jennie Archer describes her library’s partnership and process of educating LIRT News Editor patrons on her campus about civic engagement through letter writing. Billie Peterson-Lugo delves into what digital transformation is and how to tell where your library is on the journey to digital transformation in Tech Talk. Please enjoy this issue, and I hope the new year finds you and your family safe and healthy, Sherri LIRT News is published quarterly (September, Editor: December, March, June) by the Library Instruction Sherri Brown Round Table of the American Library Association.

I am currently serving as co-chair of the LIRT membership committee with Carla James-Jackson, who was interviewed in the last issue of LIRT News. What brought you to LIRT? I love LIRT! I joined when I made a mid-career change 16 years ago to academic librarianship. I had been a law librarian for the prior 15 years, and it has been quite a ride! What do you like about LIRT and what would you like to see? LIRT’s membership is great with 1700 members with a heavy emphasis on schools and colleges. I would like to see more membership and programs at the public, state, special, etc. libraries levels. We have a great membership, so let’s start bringing greater diversity to the membership rolls and programs. I would also like to see future interviews with members of LIRT who are not school or college librarians to expand upon this perspective. What are you looking forward to? I am looking forward to having all of us back together live, hopefully in Chicago next June. Virtual hugs to all! LIRT News 43.2 December 2020 http://www.ala.org/lirt/lirt http://www.ala.org/lirt/lirt-news-archives-news-archives 3 3 LIRT Spotlight Alexandra Rivera ALA Executive Board Liaison to LIRT Alexandra Rivera (Alex) is the Student Success and Community Engagement Librarian at the University of Michigan Library. As the ALA Executive Board Liaison to LIRT, we thought our members would like to know a bit more about Ms. Rivera. Here is what she shared with us: I joined ALA in 2000 and am in my first year on the Executive Board (EB) and my third term on ALA Council as a councilor at-large. I have worked in both academic and public libraries. In my current position, I provide instruction to primarily undergraduate students, direct a peer education program, and collaborate closely with K-12 schools, campus engagement initiatives, and community groups. I came to ALA as a Spectrum Scholar while I was a library staff member. I am a longtime member of ACRL, including chairing the University Libraries Section. I am also a longtime member of REFORMA (the National Association to Promote Library and Information Services to Latinos and the Spanish Speaking) and currently serve as the Vice-President of the Joint Council of Librarians of Color, Inc. – ALA’s most recent National Association of Librarians of Color. The values that drive my work are grounded in diversity, equity, and inclusion. I am delighted to be your EB representative and look forward to learning more about LIRT and how I can best support it. There are many different ways I can engage with you. I am available as a resource to you and your members for your questions and concerns and as an open and reciprocal conduit between your unit and the EB. Here are the official Board Liaison responsibilities (from the ALA Executive Board Manual): * Facilitate communication with ALA membership units and external organizations; * Provide pertinent information to unit leaders on new initiatives and emerging issues; * Help identify member issues and concerns; * Provide a single Board "contact point" for membership units and external organizations; and * Make the Board members more accessible, available, and visible to their constituents. "A Board liaison can be helpful to a group by listening to its concerns and, where appropriate, by suggesting strategies or approaches to achieve objectives. The liaison should also be able to assist in interpreting current or emerging areas of concern, and may direct member leaders to the Executive Director or other staff that can help resolve problems. The liaison must use judgment in accepting tasks and assignments as a member of the group, keeping in mind both time constraints and possible conflicts of interest in later Board decisions." I look forward to being your liaison for the 2020-2021 ALA governance year and working with you and your unit during these interesting times.

  • Katie Fong ’06 Named 2020 Young Alumni Award Recipient
    WellsNotes Fall/Winter Wells College Alumnae and Alumni Newsletter 2020 Wells College Association of Alumnae and Alumni KATIE FONG ’06 NAMED 2020 YOUNG ALUMNI AWARD RECIPIENT The Wells College Association of Alumnae and Alumni (WCA) is proud to announce that Kathryn “Katie” Fong ’06 is the recipient of the 2020 Young Alumni Award. The award recognizes Katie’s extraordinary professional and personal achievements, civic engagement and legacy of service to her alma mater. Katie’s leadership in these areas was already evident during her time as a student, when she served as a class officer and student organization leader, and also made fundraising phone calls on behalf of the Advancement office. Her enthusiasm for Sister Wells has continued in the years since graduation. She served on the board of the Friends and Recent Graduates Organization (FARGO) for young alums, and was always a supportive and friendly advocate for countless alumnae and alumni. She has also long been a constant presence at Wells events in both New York City and Aurora as well as the annual Reunion weekends, and served as a panel facilitator in the College’s second annual Women’s Leadership Conference back in February. After earning her bachelor’s degree from Wells — majoring in women’s studies with a minor in history — Katie spent the first 13 years of her career as an executive search consultant and has worked with senior finance, operations, supply chain and merchandising executives in some of the world’s most well-known retail, fashion and consumer brands. In 2016, Katie decided to refocus her career on guiding organizations toward healthier, more equitable culture and practices, and so began pursuing her graduate degree while working full time.

Their prayers were directed to God and Mary on behalf of the unborn babies that die in the abortion clinic, formerly located on East 38th Street in Indianapolis. Voices raised in prayer, the Helpers of God’s Precious Infants continued their pro-life petitions led by the archbishop as a young couple climbed out of a car in the parking lot and approached the clinic door. Pro-life sidewalk counselors Patty Yeadon, a member of St. Joan of Arc Parish in Indianapolis, and Delores Tucker of Columbus offered pro-life literature to the young woman, but she declined the medical information about fetal develop- ment and went into the clinic.
