Fundamentals of Acquisitions
Next Sessions: September 6 – October 1 | October 11 – November 5
The Fundamentals of Acquisitions (FOA) web course focuses on the basics of acquiring monographs and serials: goals and methods, financial management of library collections budgets, and relationships among acquisitions librarians, library booksellers, subscription agents, and publishers. In this course, you will receive a broad overview of the operations involved in acquiring materials after the selection decision is made. Note that in FOA, we distinguish between collection development, which involves the selection of materials for the library; and acquisitions, which orders, receives, and pays for those materials.
This course is one-third of the Collection Management elective course approved by the Library Support Staff Certification Program (LSSCP). Collection Management Elective FAQ
Fundamentals of Electronic Resources Acquisitions
Next Sessions: August 16 – September 10 (2 spaces remain) | October 4 – October 29

Fundamentals of Preservation «NEW«
Next Session: August 23 – September 17
The Fundamentals of Preservation introduces participants to the principles, policies and practices of preservation in libraries and archives. The course is designed to inform all staff, across divisions and departments and at all levels of responsibility. It provides tools to begin extending the useful life of library collections. Components include preservation as a formal library function, and how it reflects and supports the institutional mission; the primary role of preventive care, including good storage conditions, emergency planning, and careful handling of collections; the history and manufacture of physical formats and how this impacts on preservation options; standard methods of care and repair, as well as reformatting options; and challenges in preserving digital content and what the implications are for the future of scholarship.

NISO will be holding a two-part webinar on September 8 and 15 (at 1:-00-2:30 p.m. eastern time) on Measuring Use, Assessing Success. Although related, each part is independent so you can attend either webinar or both. If you register for both events at the same time, you will receive a 20% discount.
September 8, Part 1: Measure, Assess, Improve, Repeat: Using Library Performance Metrics
Practitioners of evidence-based librarianship will discuss and demonstrate evaluations of library collections and services using a variety of performance metrics. Metrics, when utilized creatively, offer many far-reaching applications and opportunities for demonstration of return-on-investment and proof of a library’s value to its parent institution, as well as new responsibilities to continue to show relevance.
Speakers are:
– Steve Hiller, Director, Assessment and Planning, University of Washington Libraries
– Martha Kyrillidou, Senior Director, Statistics and Service Quality Programs, Association of Research Libraries (ARL)
September 15, Part 2: Count Me In: Measuring Individual Item Usage
Libraries’ growing awareness of performance measures has created an increased interest in and desire for fine-grained usage data. Now that electronic versions of books, journals, and other media inhabit a much greater percentage of many libraries’ collections, usage data about individual book chapters, journal articles, sound recordings, motion picture scenes, etc. is within reach.
Authors and funding agencies, in addition to library collection managers, are interested in better understanding the impact this usage tracking can provide. What are further practical applications for the analysis of this information?
Speakers are:
– Peter Shepherd, Project Director, Project COUNTER (Update on PIRUS 2:
Developing practical standards for recording and reporting online usage at the individual article level)
– Johan Bollen, Associate Professor in the School of Informatics and Computing, Indiana University (Applying usage metrics to assess scholarly content quality)
REGISTRATION
Registration is per site (defined as access for one computer). NISO and NASIG members may register at a discounted rate. A student discount is also available. If you register for both parts at the same time, there is a 20% discount. Can’t make it on the scheduled date or time? Registrants receive access to the recorded version for one year, which can be viewed at your convenience. For more information or to register, visit the event webpage:

Call for Participation
ALISE 2011 Information Ethics SIG panel discussion
San Diego, CA, January 2011
Innovations in Teaching Information Ethics Across Contexts
:: Submission deadline: July 28, 2010 ::
In keeping with the 2011 ALISE conference theme of “Competitiveness and Innovation,” the Information Ethics SIG invites submissions to participate in a panel discussion to highlight innovations and new approaches for teaching information ethics across multiple contexts.
While recent Information Ethics SIG activities have focused on innovative ways to integrate information ethics across LIS curricula, the 2011 panel discussion will broaden this scope to include multiple educational contexts and opportunities, ranging from elementary/secondary education, university & professional environs, public & school libraries, within homes and community centers, or through popular media, gaming and the Internet.
Possible topics for this panel discussion include:
- What innovative educational tools and methods are being used for teaching information ethics across various contexts?
- How can information ethics be introduced in elementary through secondary education curricula?
- What place does information ethics have within broader “21st Century Skills” or “S.T.E.M.” educational initiatives?
- What topics in information ethics (i.e., privacy, netiquette, intellectual property, plagiarism, information literacy, etc.) are most appropriate to introduce within specific educational contexts?
- How can popular media, video games, and the Internet be leveraged to foster information ethics awareness and education?
- How can information ethics be established within general requirements for undergraduate education?
- What role do parents and non-traditional teachers play in educating youth about information ethics?
- How are LIS scholars and professionals providing information ethics education across various contexts? What contexts are underserved, and how can we target them?
We envision this panel discussion to take the form of a guided conversation, featuring 4-6 selected speakers addressing relevant topics, complemented by a robust exchange of ideas with the audience members.
Interested participants are invited to submit a 300-word abstract of their intended contribution to Michael Zimmer (zimmerm@uwm.edu) by July 28, 2010. A full proposal will be submitted to ALISE on July 30, 2010.

Call for Poster Sessions
The Greater New York Chapter of the Association of College and Research Libraries
The 2010 ACRL/NY Annual Symposium, “Innovation by Design: Re-visioning the Library” will focus on how design is featured in many parts of academic librarianship. Design impacts everything we do. What does this mean for libraries? Design comes into play as we craft our collections, create instruction programs, construct user-centered websites, renovate buildings, and redesign our policies. It mediates our information-seeking behavior, connects us with both students and faculty, and influences our interactions with our physical environment. This year’s symposium looks at design in academic libraries from four very different perspectives. Come join the conversation. In considering your proposal, ask yourself: What elements of design are important to consider when starting a project? What elements will influence decisions? What role does users’ needs play in the design process?
ACRL/NY invites you to submit a poster session proposal for the Symposium. It can address any issue related to this theme. Examples follow:
Library/Department Collaborations (one-on-one, liaisons, etc.)
Mobile applications
Planning, implementation and outcomes of successful UX projects
Design/Redesign projects (processes involved, services provided)
Meeting information needs at points of service (e.g. a clinical librarian working side by side with medical professionals)
Successful implementation of a library redesign without a budget
Case studies (e.g. identify a problem, collect feedback, library response)
Innovative uses of social software to redesign a service
Policy design
Analysis of why a design/redesign has not worked (lessons learned)
Design ideas for future libraries
Instructional design in Face-to-Face and Distance education initiatives
Please email a 100-200 word description of your poster session proposal to Symposium Planning Committee member Gloria Meisel at gloria.meisel@sunywcc.edu by September 10, 2010. Include author name(s), email and telephone contact numbers, and the title of the poster session. Presenters will receive a reduced Symposium registration rate.
The successful candidates will be notified by early November. You will be expected to set up by 8:30 am and stay through the final poster session time of 3:00. There is no wireless capability and no availability for electronic sessions. Posters cannot be displayed on walls or big boards. Easels will be available upon request. The size of the tables will be posted shortly.
The Symposium will take place on Friday December 10, 2010 in New York City at:
The William and Anita Newman Vertical Campus Conference Center, Baruch College
55 Lexington Avenue (at 24th Street) Room 14-220 (14th floor)
For further information about the symposium, go to: http://acrlnysymp2010.wordpress.com

Workshop Abstract
Student learning is the goal of our information literacy efforts. Quality instructional design, active learning, and rubrics are elements of our repertoire and a focus on the classroom is a key component in building a robust information literacy program. Best practices for information literacy programs, however, challenge us to look beyond the single session and consider how our programs articulate within institutional contexts. Building an integrated approach to program evaluation will enable us to connect individual student learning assessments to classroom goals to institutional outcomes. This workshop will present strategies for considering how the library contributes to student learning through an institutional framework and connecting individual assessment efforts to a common framework.
New This Year! Consultations
We’re pleased to offer workshop registrants the opportunity to meet with one of the workshop presenters for a 50-minute consultation regarding any aspect of information literacy assessment. These consultations will take place between 1:00 and 5:00 pm on Wednesday, December 1.
