These choices are often protected by academic freedompolicies [3].In particular, science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medical sciences (STEM)courses may rely heavily on IM, such as textbooks, to augment lecture and laboratory learningactivities and lectures. Textbooks are often content-rich and may have substantial onlineresources to assist learners and support instruction [2]. However, there are a myriad of additionalinformation resources available to supplement or replace textbooks, and these might bepurchased by students, provided by faculty (e.g. course reserves), provided through universityand college libraries, or be Open Access or Open Educational Resources (OER) that
librarians who selected and used theresources and staffed the libraries. This paper will explore the following questions aboutacademic engineering librarians in the post-war period.What was the demographic profile of engineering librarians in the late 1940s? How didengineering librarians compare to other librarians in terms of geographic region, age, education,and gender?What professional credentials did engineering librarians possess? Did engineering librarians havesimilar professional credentials as other librarians? Were they more likely to have advanceddegrees? Did they have degrees in engineering or a related field?What was the status of engineering librarians within the academy? Where they consideredacademic staff on par with teaching faculty
Paper ID #38906Research Data Sharing in Engineering: A Report on Faculty Practices andPreferences Prior to the Tri-Agency PolicyMs. Sarah Parker, University of British Columbia, Vancouver Sarah Parker is an engineering librarian at the University of British Columbia where she also received her MLIS in 2014. She regularly promotes and contributes to open scholarship activities at UBC and incorporates her interest in open science and using open resources into her teaching. In addition to her liaison role, she aids in graduate student programming for UBC’s Research Commons and co-teaches the Science and Technology Information
exchanged between researchers, although they have notbeen easily searchable or available to the public until the early days of the internet.First established at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1991, the pioneering arXiv repositoryenabled the sharing of high-energy physics preprints [13]. This open access platform is nowhoused at Cornell University. arXiv paved the way for the proliferation of other preprintrepositories across disciplines over the subsequent three decades, such as bioRxiv and medRxiv[14].These repositories are excellent at featuring recently-posted articles but lack optimization forsearching with specific syntax and facet limiting, which engineering librarians are accustomed todoing.In the last five years, traditional subscription
