Minutes from previous meeting November 8, 2010 have not been posted so there is no approval of minutes.
Announcements:
CARLI Report (Lorna Engels)
- The plans to update Voyager have been delayed due to a bug that causes the program to work too slowly. CARLI may skip to version 8 which is due to be out in the Summer of 2011.
- The annual meeting was held virtually on December 3, 2011, slides and a recording are available on the CARLI home page for those unable to attend.
IUG Report (Tom Goetz)
- Tom was appointed as chair elect of the IUG Committee at the last meeting
- Standardization of UB loan policies continue, with a meeting planned in Feb between IUG and the Resource Sharing team
- IUG watched & discussed presentations on ExLibris URM (Uniform Resource Manager)
General note: The Instruction Team meeting was held using CARLI’s web conferencing software, Adobe Connect Pro web. There have been complications so the January meeting will be held in the meeting room with phone connections. Monday’s meeting day has had some problems, will look to see if another day is more accommodating.
Old Business
Tutorial Creation Workshops
- 3 people, who played a role in the workshops, are missing today’s meeting so there may be more feedback in the future. Lorna reported that Aimee did a private workshop for the acquisitions team and they have been making tutorials on their own. Most feedback from the evaluations was positive.
- Improvements will be made as necessary based on information from the evaluations. Someone requested changing the workshop to a ½ day, but the team doesn’t feel the information could be adequately covered in ½ day. One possibility is to encourage participants to practice more while at the training. There were evaluation comments about having more time or resources to practice for the participants. Other comments involved additional handouts, the team thought more emphasis of the handouts should be given as there was ample information available.
Spring forum
- Some discussion took place during the November meeting with the interest survey being sent to all I-Share libraries. The topics that had the most interest include: Collaboration, Embedded Librarian, and Assessment.
- Those present thought the forum should focus on Collaboration with teaching faculty and Embedded Librarianship as the broader topic.
- There was some discussion of using LibGuides with the collaboration portion
- Previous forums consist of an opening session, a four person panel on the subject area, with breakout sessions in the afternoon. Usual hours are from 10:00 – 3:00
- Two possible speakers for the forum are:
Carol Reid – Heartland
Pamela Salela - U of I Springfield
- Date and location of the forum to be decided at the January meeting. Looking at May or June, and Heartland or U of I Springfield.
- Plans are to have the list of available speakers and breakout session leaders by the January
meeting.
New Business: No new business to report.
Tasks assigned:
Aimee will put a call out for additional speakers or breakout session leaders
Aimee will send out an email requesting someone to post to blog.
