1 Creighton ISSUE 59 Fall 2010 CORNERSTONE Reinert - Alumni Memorial Library Electronic Reference Redux In This Issue Electronic Reference Redux n the fall 2006 issue of Cornerstone, I wrote that Ithe Library s reference collection had taken on an increasingly electronic form. Four years later, not only has that trend continued, it has escalated tremendously. And, according to online usage statistics, usage has increased as well. Library users are taking full advantage of the convenience of 24/7 remote access. For some time now, reference publishers such as Gale Cengage Learning, Oxford, and Sage have offered a full line of e-book versions of print directories, dictionaries and encyclopedias. Many libraries, including Reinert, have switched titles received on standing order from print to electronic. Titles such as National Faculty Directory, Encyclopedia of Associations and Books in Print are now received only in e-book format. However, titles that are heavily used in print, such as the New Catholic Encyclopedia, will continue to be available in both versions. Four years ago we wondered how to recreate the browsability inherent in a print collection. Although we continue to explore new ways to make materials easy to find, this issue has almost become a moot point. Few people are browsing the print reference collection these days. Students have grown up using Electronic Reference Cont d. Linking to Library Resources Staff Directory a computer as a source of information, not reference books. A student recently told me that she didn t think to look for a reference book to answer her question because looking things up in books was just not part of her past experience. Times do change! Consequently, the trend toward a fully online reference service will likely continue. In order to make these materials easily accessible, we continue to explore ways in which we can provide multiple access points within the Library s web site. All e-books are included in the CLIC catalog. Reference titles are also added to our newly updated Research Guides series as well as the A-Z Title List on the Research Guides home page. Course Guides also include appropriate titles. Recent acquisitions include: ATLA Historical Monographs Collection Series I and II (American Theological Library Association). Series I: Sources in Greek, Hebrew, and other biblical languages besides English documenting religion and society (13th century to 1893). Series II: Sources documenting religion in America at the turn of the century ( ). E-reserves/LOR New Collection Developments New Spaces Continued on page 2 6Research Guides Make-over

Mike Poma Linking to Library Resources The Library is pleased to provide information for faculty who would like to link to library content from BlueLine or from their course web pages. E-books, journal articles, streaming videos, and encyclopedia articles (the Library s alternative to Wikipedia) can often be made available to students by using a stable URL, preceded by the campus EZproxy login. Content presented in this manner is fully compliant with copyright law. The process may vary from one vendor to another and not all databases provide this capability. But for those that do, you are invited to point to /services/instruction /hyperlinks.htm for more information. This library web page is a work in progress.

4 Creighton Cornerstone Fall 2010 Ebooks and New Methods for Collection Development In light of current economic budgets, many university libraries are examining material acquisition practices. Libraries are moving away from the just-in-case philosophy of collection development and moving towards a just-in-time one. Discovery tools and search engines are breaking apart the traditional formats of books and journals, and focusing on the content inside. New methods of material acquisition have also emerged which follow a subscription-based model or a model of purchasing at the point of use. over 60,000 e-book titles. High usage has occurred in the subject areas of Business and Finance, Theology, Political Science, History, and Physics. As more content becomes available in the e-book format it is anticipated that usage will continue to increase. There are many advantages to the ebook format such as online access, full- text searching, and no checkout period. Over the next few years the Reinert-Alumni Library anticipates that the majority of new books will be purchased in the electronic format. The Reinert-Alumni Library is taking advantage of these new models when purchasing e-books as a means of providing a larger variety of content to the Creighton community. During the past two years the Reinert-Alumni Library has added Sally Gibson Electronic Reserves Recently, the library has changed the process in which electronic reserves (ereserves) are distributed. We now use Blueline. As before, scanned articles, links to online materials and test samples can be made available to students. Within Blueline are LOR s (Learning Object Repositories), specific to each department. These are where the reserve materials will be placed. Faculty members can simply link to the appropriate LOR from within their course, allowing only the students enrolled to view it. Scott Vannurden Page 4
5 Fall 2010 Creighton Cornerstone Inviting Study Spaces We have added new study furniture on the upper level of the library. The 11 tables each have task lighting and plenty of electrical outlets. MAC Workstations More freshman bring MAC laptops to campus now, so we acknowledged that popularity and have added four regular imac workstations in our computer lab area. Debra Sturges Page 5
6 Creighton Cornerstone Fall 2010 Research Guides Get Cloud-y Makeover The Reinert-Alumni Memorial Library Research Guides have been a staple of the library s website for over a decade. Their content changes as often as necessary to keep up with new materials and technology. Every so often their format changes. Summer 2010 saw yet another change this one brought on by new technologies and buoyed by suggestions we received in response to a survey conducted at the beginning of Spring Linked from at Research by Subject, the new guides now reside in the cloud with a service called Libguides. ( guides.com) (If you ask the company, they don t mind if you pronounce it lib- (short I ) or libe -guides, just so long as you use them!) A direct link to the Research guides is Literally hundreds of libraries - academic, public, and school - are using the Libguides service to make their electronic content more accessible and easier to present. You will notice first that the content is chunked up. This chunkiness is designed to offer a significant amount of information in a way that is more digestible than scrolling through a long list of links. Other features you will see include a browsable subject list on the left side, a tabbed search mechanism dependent upon the content format you want, and an active chat window that is client agnostic for on-the-fly assistance from the reference desk, no matter where you are! Within the guides themselves, each tab contains a different type of information, based on format. (We just cannot get away from the books vs. articles vs. encyclopedias paradigm yet!) The majority of the content is electronic, but valuable print items are listed as well. As always, this conversion was a team effort. Your liaison librarians migrated and updated the content and worked closely with DoIT instructional designers to enable you to link to guides applicable to your discipline within Blueline. We welcome suggestions and would be happy to create specific course guides for your students in this same format. Questions can be directed to your liaison librarian or contact the Reference Department at x2227, askus@cu or text ASKRAL + your question to Heard Recently in the Library! Christine Carmichael Wow! I ve never seen so many books! Oh, Look! Baby computers!
