OCLC Research joins colleagues from Stanford University, the University of
Michigan and the Institute for Field Research in assisting the Alexandria
Archive Institute on a three-year data modeling and reuse project that has
been funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. This study will
improve the quality of information collected during archaeological
excavations across the globe, preserve this information and share it with
the public.

The Aspen Institute has released an Action Guide for libraries to accompany
its report, Rising to the Challenge: Re-Envisioning Public Libraries. The
guide includes worksheets and exercises that can be used to facilitate
important community conversations and planning around the future of
libraries. The resources were piloted by libraries around the United States
in communities with a population size ranging from 1,900 to 1,100,000.

Erasmus University Rotterdam, one of the largest universities in the
Netherlands with more than 24,000 students and a research community of
approximately 1,400 scientists, has selected WorldShare Management Services
(WMS) as its library management system. The move to WMS will enable this
premier university to save time on routine tasks and concentrate more
resources on services for users.

00d4ae8f8b30b67df> Learning isn't learning until you use it 


 




by Sharon Streams


 




The learning field is complex, thorny and ever-shifting.
Decades-centuries-of intense research, policy, systems and debate have tried
to answer the question, "What is the best way to learn?" and its corollary,
"What is the best way to teach?" New theories and related initiatives crop
up every few years, each arriving with a bloom of new terminology intended
to enlighten but destined to confuse.

Improve the quality of your online catalog

Students and faculty at Biblical Theological Seminary were too often unable
to locate the library resources they found in their library's online
catalog. The library staff spent so much time keeping up with daily tasks
that they were unable to conduct an inventory to keep their catalog up to
date. Once they streamlined staff processes, the staff had time to improve
the catalog and offer students and faculty more discovery services.
