As we all know, some of the only constants in life are change and the passage of time. Academic librarians are also constantly asked to improve utilization of library services. Fostering communication and collaboration between faculty, students, and academic librarians to achieve shared success is an ongoing challenge. Our classroom instruction can often have a secret audience, the teaching faculty. By demonstrating expertise in subject matter and research techniques librarians can increase the chances of teaching faculty reaching out for support. With a panel of librarians from various disciplines, this talk will highlight several strategies that can be used to engage with students and faculty, supporting their work both inside and outside of the classroom.
Article VII of the American Library Association’s Library Bill of Rights states that “Libraries should advocate for, educate about, and protect people’s privacy”. With the proliferation of digital services available through libraries both public and academic, this imperative extends out beyond the walls of the library and into the realm of digital privacy. In this webinar, one librarian will talk through the preparation and implementation of three different programs on this topic: an online resource, a workshop at Monroe County Public Library, and a program at Indiana University Libraries. Through these examples, participants will discover various resources to support similar initiatives.
