intended to give credit to the body of scholarship and research on which a new practiceis built as well as make a case for legitimacy for new work. Most universities require researchand publication of their faculty for tenure and promotion. To be successful in this process, acandidate needs to show impact. This impact is usually heavily based on citation metrics. Whilethere is a push from some, such as those in the open scholarship movement to change thispractice and put value on other metrics of impact [3], it remains a heavy driver at most academicinstitutions, meaning citation practices have broad impact on who gets recognition in academia[4]. In addition, research that is more heavily cited usually is regarded as more impactful and ismore

efforts to document and promote the use of evidence-based pedagogy (aka research-basedinstructional strategies, high-impact practices, etc.) in STEM focus on classroom and laboratoryactivities but also do note some updated instructional materials (IM) and a few textbooks thatadopted best practices from disciplinary educational research [5]. Textbook selection practices,particularly OER adoption, have been studied for STEM courses, including engineeringmechanics [7] and health sciences [4]. Other OER-related research includes the positive effectson student learning outcomes [1], efforts to design OER [8], how OER could be better curated inrepositories [9], and detailed case studies [10].For some STEM instructors, there is tension between faculty

user research as anethnographic assessment, embedding themselves in engineering labs. During the study, librariansserved as a point of need for resources, mentors, and instructors during lab meetings. Thisapproach provided librarians with deep knowledge of their liaison area’s research practices, butwas limited in tracking how students, staff, and faculty responded to this exposure [12]. Outside of libraries, numerous studies have interrogated success and failures of specificengineering departments using user-centered models. Villanova University’s Engineeringprogram noted a comparatively high number of female graduates compared to the nationalaverage, and sought out students to help explain [13]. Focus groups surfaced themes of

incorporating UDL into library instruction by sharing their experience offeeling of being overwhelmed when trying to add multiple elements of UDL into theirinstruction. They recommend a slow approach of practicing one new technique or strategy at atime and that practitioners collaborate with colleagues with similar interests; communities ofpractice are helpful for instructors new to UDL to find support and encouragement as well asideas for ways to utilize the UDL framework [54], [87]. Additionally, research about UDL anddisability continually offer insights on how to improve and evolve recommended UDL practices,making it important for practitioners to regularly learn more and consider how to best support allstudents. This requires sustained dedication
