they could alter or adapt workshops in order to best serve this patron group [11]. Inorder to attract students to services, a recent trend in library outreach is gamification [12].Turning orientation or information literacy sessions into games not only entices students toparticipate, but also encourages them to “interact with information for problem solving anddiscovery-based learning when using the library to conduct research for class” [13]. Gamification and project-based learning are very common approaches to education inengineering. Since the engineering discipline is primarily an applied science, experiments andcompetitions challenge students to apply concepts learned in the classroom. Project-basedlearning develops valuable

Using Mays et al. definition: “[scoping studies] aim to map rapidly the key concepts underpinning a research area and the main sources and types of evidence available, and can be undertaken as stand-alone projects in their own right, especially where an area is complex or has not been reviewed comprehensively before.” [21]This methodology has demonstrated its value when investigating topics or research areaswhere evidence takes a variety of forms thereby making other knowledge synthesismethodologies, like systematic reviews, inappropriate and where a non-systematicliterature review may lack the rigor to make actionable or credible assertions [16].In

Hack Your Library:Engage students in information literacy through a technology-themed competitionAbstract Hack Dibner is a library competition for engineering students focused on informationliteracy, technology, and user experience. The challenge statement was “To enhance userexperience in the library through technology.” Students were allowed to participate asindividuals or as teams, and were required to submit three deliverables throughout the semester:an initial concept, a written proposal, and a presentation. These deliverables required thestudents to perform a literature review to support their project ideas and to practice crafting anddelivering effective presentations. To hold the students’ interest throughout the semester

in the number ofstudents attending these sessions, important changes were made to the type of learningassessment. At first, the students were required to produce a portfolio related to their researchprojects that the librarians graded and to which they suggested ways of improvement. Thisevaluation method being time-consuming, it was changed to open-book exams. After a fewyears, the librarians decided to modify the assessment again to allow students to work on theirown projects. Moreover, a heterogeneous clientele posed some significant challenges. Forexample, the university has welcomed a growing international graduate student population thatdid not speak French. In response to these challenges and to institutional requests, the team

Technical reports are either generated by private enterprise andits research-and-development (R&D) component, or by governmental support of research.Contracts with the federal government almost always require a report summarizing the project(Walker, 1990).During the 1930s, technical reports were considered at the time furnishing “newer informationfaster” (Box 4, Series 2). Crosland understood the importance of technical reports and wasactively involved in acquiring them based on research needs. She was instrumental inparticipating in several depository programs.

Locationsin other academic buildings were not as successful either. In the more social study areas ofdepartment buildings, students were busy working on projects with others and not interested inus. Quiet study areas were the same. The change over of classes appeared to be a good time tobe in the department buildings, however, most students were in a hurry to or from class anddidn’t have time
