{"title":"The Importance and Level of Individual Social Capital among Academic Librarians","authors":"M. Wojciechowska","doi":"10.1080/13614533.2022.2079538","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13614533.2022.2079538","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Academic libraries, apart from their main function, which is to provide information services to academic communities, may also perform a number of social roles in the broad meaning of the term. Accordingly, they now tend to serve as the third place offering inclusion and animation activities to academic as well as local communities (including potential students) and to groups in risk of social exclusion (immigrants, persons with disabilities, senior citizens, etc.) or in need of various kinds of care and support. However, for libraries to be able to fulfil those tasks, they need properly trained staff who not only have the required competencies but also the right social attitudes. The paper presents an analysis of the social attitudes of academic librarians from twenty countries across the world as compared to the personnel of other types of libraries. The level of individual social capital, activity in social networks, aspirations in life and social and civic engagement were investigated. It was noted that the respondents tend to undervalue the importance of the work done by libraries for local communities. At the same time, the research showed that academic librarians have a somewhat lower level of individual social capital and trust than public librarians and less extensive social networks. Nonetheless, they are open to relationships with others, which enables them to engage in various social projects.","PeriodicalId":38971,"journal":{"name":"New Review of Academic Librarianship","volume":"29 1","pages":"51 - 76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49668600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faculty consider preparing and submitting works to repositories onerous, they worry about making works freely available, and they fail to see benefits of submitting works to repositories. Nevertheless, opportunities to increase repository submissions exist, and IRs offer campuses a way to promote dissemination of research and scholarship while meeting user needs. This article identifies hurdles to getting faculty to submit works and highlights how librarians can leverage campus resources and address faculty priorities to increase submissions. Insights gathered via assessments of repository workflows, library processes, and communications with librarians at several U.S. universities are presented to support the conclusion that, to increase submissions, repository staff should leverage information channels, increase benefits associated with submitting works to the repository, and reduce costs associated with the submission process. By grounding the study’s approach in rational choice logic, the findings represent a broadly-applicable framework.","PeriodicalId":38971,"journal":{"name":"New Review of Academic Librarianship","volume":"29 1","pages":"97 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48489453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Alignment, Collaboration and the Social Turn: Our Agenda for the Relational Library","authors":"S. Corrall","doi":"10.1080/13614533.2023.2196277","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13614533.2023.2196277","url":null,"abstract":"Our profession is “Moving from collecting to connecting” (Kranich, Lotts, Nielsen, & Ward, 2020, p, 285). Academic librarians envision a “social future” (Schlak, Corrall, & Bracke, 2022) as connected connectors, “connecting ideas, knowledge and communities” (University of Leeds Libraries, 2022a), as outward-facing players who “seize opportunities to connect at local, national and international levels” and “purposefully connect and collaborate with strategic partners” (Lancaster University, 2020). Collaboration has emerged as a key theme in academic library discourse and was set to dominate the professional agenda until the COVID-19 pandemic pushed the digital shift into pole position. The pandemic gave commitment to “digital first” a new urgency, but we must not allow our current preoccupation with digital transformation to distract us from the equally important task of developing our capacity to collaborate and embedding a collaborative relational culture in our profession. We have been marching towards the digital library for more than three decades and our journey via online databases, electronic resources, virtual reference, networked services and shared systems has involved a lot of collaboration along the way and not just with other libraries. But our collaborative activities and social relationships have also evolved on a similar timeline, independently and in tandem with that technological trajectory; indeed, collaborations have been instrumental in securing our digital future in scholarly communications with both established and new organisations supporting our work in areas such as content licensing, open access, research data, library publishing and software development. Building tools and building relationships are both important tasks for libraries, but the latter is a prerequisite for the former, which is why we must commit to “collaboration first” (Norman, 1991). We cannot discover, define, design, develop and deliver interventions to enhance research and learning without “a deep, fundamental understanding of people and groups”; in particular, an understanding of their individual and group activities, which are “vastly different” and hence require an understanding of “the complex social and cultural aspects of their interaction” (Norman, 1991, p. 89). Norman’s (1991) call for systems designers to engage in “collaborative computing” is reflected in the collaborative and participatory service design processes that are now widely used in academic libraries, often led by user experience (UX) librarians (Bell, 2014; Marquez & Downey, 2015; Somerville & Collins, 2008). Steven Bell (2014, pp. 379, 380) goes on to suggest that “academic librarians must continue to seek out opportunities to leverage both the technology and the power of relationships to design a library experience that supports student and faculty success” and asserts that “The differentiating capacity of the future academic library ... is personal relationships with academi","PeriodicalId":38971,"journal":{"name":"New Review of Academic Librarianship","volume":"29 1","pages":"1 - 10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45112415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet to date the academic library has rarely been examined as place for student and staff partnership to thrive. In this paper, we present findings from a national students as partners benchmarking survey conducted across Australian academic libraries, with responses from library staff representing 35 universities across six states (n=210). Our findings highlight that while many library staff see the potential benefits to student partnership, this potential is largely unrealised. Our findings further tackle the commonly perceived barriers to partnership specific to the library context, such as staff understanding of student partnership and its corresponding practices as well as challenges and barriers to student engagement. We conclude with a recommendation for more reflection in academic libraries on how to create a connected and relationship-rich culture of partnership.","PeriodicalId":38971,"journal":{"name":"New Review of Academic Librarianship","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42465358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through a review of the relevant literature and of current practice in existing e-learning programs in Nigerian universities, a discussion is developed around the significant roles librarians can play. The embedded librarianship model was identified as the best practice to adopt in order to secure a place for librarians and libraries in Nigeria in the face of the current change in teaching approaches in the post Covid-19 environment. Furthermore, the paper describes the perceived challenges librarians and libraries may be confronted with in executing the embedded librarianship model with regard to online teaching and learning. The paper advocates that the identified challenges be addressed for the library to play a role in the evolving post-covid adaptations in Nigerian universities.
