%) had no mention of the author's’institutional affiliation. Moreover, 502 (84.5%) publications lacked controlled vocabulary, 485(81.6%) did not include uncontrolled vocabulary, and 489 (82.2%) missed classification codes.Additionally, none of the publications has incorporated citations. Acknowledging that thesenumbers greatly influence the accuracy of the planned analyses, the authors accepted the fact thatno citation analysis was possible and decided to carry on the authorship and affiliation analyses asinitially planned, but continue with the other planned investigations as a proof of concept only.First, the collaborations between the ELD members were investigated by developing the co-authorship network based on the co-occurrence of author's

department had some ideas of what could be done with thespace, the decision was made to work with ISE senior design capstone students. After meetingwith the professor in the class and meeting with some of the students who were interested indoing a project, five students decided that this was a project they wanted to tackle.At the first weekly meeting with the students, a timeline was set for what would be completedand when. It was decided that the first semester would be spent collecting information on howthe library functions, what the Technical Services staff were responsible for, and to outline thebasic needs of the area. Included in the planning was the design of a survey which would begiven to all Technical Services staff. The survey included

is the flagship institution for STEM teaching and research in the UNC System. TheCollege of Engineering is thus one of the larger colleges at NC State, with over 10,000 students.Between 1984 and 1987, NC State acquired a 1,000-acre tract of land to expand upon, andcreated a master plan for this new campus, which was named the Centennial Campus in honor ofthe 100th anniversary of the University. Centennial Campus is one mile from NC State’s historicmain campus and is home to academic departments and centers, as well as a growing number ofcorporate and government partners. Two colleges have relocated to Centennial Campus – theCollege of Textiles moved to Centennial Campus in 1991, and the College of Engineering beganmoving its many departments

was needed and provided documentation ofwhat was being built on other university campuses. All of this information would be presented tothe Board of Regents of Georgia to justify the construction of a new library (Box 5, Series 2).Crosland continued to investigate the preliminary plans with other library directors and wrote toEmerson about her concerns. Mr. John Burchard, Head of Humanities and former director oflibraries at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was invited to the campus to do a librarybuilding study. He supported Crosland’s view that the Carnegie Library was too small and that anew building was needed (Annual Report, 1949-1950).In 1951, Crosland’s dream for a larger library became a reality.

InSeptember 1964 Boes was appointed assistant director of libraries at Syracuse University. A yearlater, in 1965, he was appointed acting director and then director of libraries in 1966. During histenure he oversaw the planning and construction of a new research library for the humanities andsocial sciences, the Bird Library, which opened in 1972. However, his plans to merge somedepartmental libraries met with resistance from faculty.[10] In 1973 Boes left Syracuse tobecome the director of libraries at the University of Georgia in Athens. His time at Georgia wasmarked by allegations

, mechanicalengineering, systems engineering, engineering technology, and construction management fromthe William States Lee College of Engineering (COE).In all of COE’s undergraduate programs, formal library instruction is generally limited to anoptional workshop that first-year students may attend for extra credit. Approximately 78% ofeligible students participate in this workshop during which they receive a basic introduction tolibrary resources in the context of an assignment focused on career planning. In addition to thisannual workshop, interested professors may contact the engineering librarian directly to requestlibrary instruction sessions. These individual requests from professors, which generate a fewsessions each semester, are usually spurred by

in acourse, only one instructor reported having experience using an open text while the otherinterviewees did not. Although some indicated that they would not use an OER for class, othersexpressed interest in learning more about open education. The trend through seemed to be thatwhile there was some knowledge of OERs all expressed interest in learning about OERs ingeneral and the potential availability.Best Practices and ImplementationThrough the survey and the interviews with faculty and instructors, we have developed bestpractices for OER outreach and a plan for implementation of OERs in discipline-specific fields(Box 1). Many of these recommendations are mere extensions of the practices that have beenposited for embedded and liaison

She has partnered with an Education Librarian to exploredifferent methods to assess the two classes. Currently they are using a one-minute essay todocument what students have learned after the first library session. Later, after the due date ofthe technical paper, they plan to hold focus group sessions with the students to learn about theirresearch needs and how they filled them. Another idea for the fall semester is to follow a fewteams and determine when and how often the students need intervention from the

schoolers are developmentallydifferent from older children and young adults and because camp is different from school, simplyadapting classroom activities did not fully address the needs of the campers.Other challenges to the library’s participation in this summer program related to sometimesconflicting aims within the missions and visions of the university and the library. While both theuniversity and its libraries consider the community in their goals and plans, they are designed asorganizations for higher education. Given limited resources, service to primary and secondarystudents, even in a university-affiliated program, could come into conflict with the core needs ofuniversity students, faculty, and staff.IntroductionChildren learn about

academic, public, government, and corporate libraries.Roberts3 provides a historical survey of the administrative structure of academic science andtechnology libraries with survey results from approximately one hundred libraries. Maugham4describes the planning and construction of the Kresge Engineering Library at the University ofBerkeley. In 1999 Poland5 describes administrative restructuring and consolidation of scienceand technology libraries at Cornell, and in 2007 Powell6 summarizes the merger of reference andcirculation desks. A few years later Powell7 and Scharnberg8 discuss the transition to virtual, orbookless libraries.Many universities present information about the history of their engineering libraries on an“about page” or Wikipedia
