  • Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value Through an International Partnership
    Asia-Pacific Conference Library & Information Education & Practice, 2011 Continuing Professional Development for RMIT International University Vietnam Library Staff: Adding Value through an International Partnership JULIA LEONG, [email protected] University Library, RMIT University LOC HUU NGUYEN, [email protected] Beanland Library, RMIT International University Vietnam ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of blended learning – the fusion of face-to-face and online learning experiences – to implement an effective and culturally sensitive program of professional development in an Australian university working in a developing country. It sought insight into pertinent pedagogical approaches for staff development across multiple locations including across national boundaries. The project demonstrates how learners can develop new capabilities and approaches by building on existing skills and knowledge as they interact in communities of practice. The immediate purpose was to design and deliver a continuing professional education program to meet the needs of librarians working at RMIT International University Vietnam in the context of the demands of the academic community and in the light of the challenge library staff experienced in seeking to meet explicit and tacit expectations. The project ran from late January to mid December 2010. The research questions were: „Is blended learning effective as an approach to continuing professional development when working across cultures in a multinational organization?‘ and ‗What contribution do face-to-face and online components make to learning outcomes?‘ The methodology used was an action learning approach. A 2009 consultant's report into the RMIT Vietnam Library established professional developmental needs which were further detailed in February 2010 by the project leader from RMIT University, Melbourne using a skills audit.

  • A Distributed National Stored Collection: Testing the Possibilities
    A Distributed National Stored Collection: Testing the Possibilities Paul Genoni School of Media, Culture and Creative Arts Curtin University GPO Box U1987, Perth 6845 [email protected] Abstract This paper reports on a study of the holdings of a single discipline (Design) by a single institution (RMIT University Library) in order to test for the possibility of a form of distributed national storage in Australia. The study was undertaken using OCLC Collection Analysis software and the WorldCat database. The collection of RMIT University Library is compared with two ‘groups’ of libraries, the first consisting of seven Victorian academic library collections, and the second of three Melbourne-based non-academic libraries considered to have strong Design collections. Conclusions indicate that for this discipline a form of distributed storage is already in place, with the RMIT University Library collection making a considerable and complementary contribution to the state wide holdings. Keywords Print storage; Collection overlap; OCLC Collection Analysis; National repository; Australia Introduction As libraries struggle with the rising costs of print storage they are inevitably seeking ways of reducing this ongoing impost. Various forms of shared or collaborative storage have emerged as a possible solution, and these are increasingly based on some form of national strategy that ensures long-term retention of individual titles while allowing libraries to de-duplicate local collections. Australian research libraries, deterred by issues related to access and up-front costs, have shown a disinclination to create a large, centralised national repository. Another option might be found, however, in a form of distributed, library-based storage such as that adopted in the United Kingdom.
