invited tooffer in-class instruction to students in an Entrepreneurship course as well as to visit theGraduate Qualifying Project course. The request came through the Management DepartmentChair, who stated it was made at the request of graduate students who attended the Business PlanResearch workshop. Course integrated exposure to information tools and strategies is ideal forthe library as more students are made aware of tools and can gain information competence priorto their venture start-up, and as Rodriquez recommends, while they have access to superiorinformation staff and resources. This approach also allows all students enrolled in the courseofferings to gain the advantage of having knowledge of all competitive information sourcesaccessible

In thefall of 2014, we offered an additional Arduino workshop, “Spooky Sounds with Arduino” (theweek of Halloween), to build on the introductory workshop.In addition to our library-led workshops, which are optional for students, our librarians havecollaborated with faculty at NC State University to integrate Maker technologies into theirclasses. We have worked with instructors in a variety of disciplines, but have found particularlystrong partners in the humanities, with Digital Humanities scholars. We have integrated 3Dscanning of artifacts into a history class, as well as constructing telegraphs using basic

Transferring these lessons to non-engineeringcourses has been successful when working with an honors English course and aninterdisciplinary Capstone Design course. Non-engineering students in these classes receivedbasic information literacy training during the first year of coursework with potential for review ina non-engineering upper division discipline-specific course. Kolb’s experiential learning cyclewas applied to the in-class instruction to appeal to multiple learning styles. Traditionalinformation literacy instruction focuses heavily on the use of books, peer-reviewed articles

American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Examining the Teaching Needs of Engineering Faculty: How the Library and Librarian Fit InAbstractTeaching is a common responsibility among many subject librarians [1], as is supporting facultyin their own teaching pursuits [2]. However, what this support looks like can vary greatlydepending on the academic area
his or her proposal towin the grant, the project, or the sponsor. Considering this, games and contests become a naturalway for engineering students to engage in critical thinking, problem-solving, and information-seeking skills, which will all be of service to them in their future careers. In an earlier library contest at NYU’s Bern Dibner Library, called Project Shhh!, welearned that while students showed gains in information literacy skills and enjoyed the challengeof the competition, other factors contributed to whether students would participate in a librarycontest [4]. One of the biggest concerns was time: both the timing of the contest within thesemester, in regard to classes and exams, and the duration of the contest. In the

However, as these aspects of a library change, so toodoes the clientele that is interested in using the variety of services these modern libraries provide.In today’s library, a major issue is that of finding a user base, drawing their interest, and servingtheir needs in a way that is pleasant and creates repeat clients. Outreach is a major part of thisissue, but even more important than that is finding resources that the clients will find user-friendly and practical.Serving the innovation communityHoward, Zwicky, and Phillips [1] described their work with classes, library guides, and teamconsultations, all of which provided both engineering library information and businessinformation.

models over the years, the COE Library is currentlyserviced by two engineering subject librarians from FSU Libraries, an engineering deskcoordinator from FSU Libraries, and several student library workers through both FAMU andFSU. The two subject librarians are also subject librarians for multiple STEM disciplines on theFSU main campus, but they provide weekly office hours at the COE during the academic schoolyear. COE constituents receive research assistance on an as needed basis through in-personmeetings, online meetings, email, and phone calls, along with in-class instruction upon request.Without a librarian housed in the COE Library or within easy walking distance of their buildingit can become easy for faculty and staff to feel detached

Bharti29 may have provided some insight on this quandary by identifying thecampus community’s overall lack of familiarity with 3D printing technology when the MarstonScience Library at the University of Florida started their 3D printing service. She noticed themost common challenge was, “stress[ing] to patrons, especially ones new to 3D printing, is thatnot all 3D models are suitable for printing.”This begs the

This is complicated by the fact that the concept of core varies frominstitution to institution and no standard list of resources exists [8]. In addition to building a corecollection of classic works, topics specifically focused on for collection development willinclude statics, dynamics, materials, and manufacturing to coincide with the curriculum map.The first classes will be Intro. to Design and Prototyping, Coding, Manuf. Processing andPrototyping Techniques which will lead to a Maker Certificate (pending approval). Therefore,many of the library’s first book purchases and
include orientation sessions,curricular-based information literacy classes, and faculty research group meetings, which missesmany students. For those students who do connect with the STEM Librarian in theaforementioned sessions and meetings, the knowledge gained is often fleeting, as it is not beingpresented at the point of need.In order to find additional avenues for reaching ECS graduate students, the STEM Librarianrecognized the need to develop non-curricular educational programming for these students. Earlyin the process, the STEM Librarian began seeking partnerships with graduate studentorganizations, including ASEE, in hopes of leveraging their expertise in areas like eventplanning and marketing and finding external funding to incentivize
