Through a series of case studies\, our presenters will touch on a variety of popular topics. Repository strategy\, policy development\, staffing\, and migration will be examined.  The workshop will conclude with a question and answer session. \nTopics:\nMid-sized public university with limited staffing by Joe Riggie \nBuffalo State University is a mid-sized public university in Buffalo which uses Digital Commons as its institutional repository. The focus of the repository is on student scholarship\, faculty run journals\, and special collections. This presentation will touch on various issues relevant to mid-sized or smaller institutions. These include sustainable staffing\, policies and long-term commitments\, and creating distinctive collections. \nLessons Learned in Evaluating and Improving a Legacy IR by Frances Chang Andreu \nNot all repositories are created under ideal circumstances\, and inheriting an institutional repository can present challenges distinct from building one from scratch. This case study examines the process of auditing a legacy institutional repository and analyzes how various practical issues lead to better processes\, documentation\, and policy development for the existing repository\, as well as new digital collections going forward. \nInstitutional Repository Use Cases Over Time by Joanna DiPasquale\, Rebecca Fried\, and Corinne Chatnik \nUnion College’s Schaffer Library began collecting student-focused work in 2008\, and its institutional repository model has matured over time as needs have developed. With multiple system migrations\, staff changes\, and changes in the nature of student work\, our repository has become more flexible in its functionality and offerings\, while our services and our policies around it have continued to respond to these changes. We will discuss our repository strategies\, software needs\, lessons learned\, and future plans for our student-focused IR. \nAbout the Presenters: \nFrances Chang Andreu is the Digital Initiatives Librarian at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT)\, where she manages RIT’s digital institutional repository and promotes other aspects of open access publishing on campus\, along with supporting RIT Libraries’ other digital collections.

Sometimes\, terms are too broad or too narrow; occasionally\, terms are simply outdated\, and unfortunately\, some are pejorative. When that happens\, it’s time to introduce an alternative vocabulary into the cataloging workflow. This presentation will introduce four alternative subject heading vocabularies: Library of Congress Demographic Group Terms\, Getty Art & Architecture Thesaurus\, Rare Books and Manuscripts Controlled Vocabulary\, and Homosaurus. Each vocabulary will be presented with a broad overview of where it can be found\, what it’s particularly good at describing\, and examples of what it would look like in a bibliographic record. The presentation will close with a decision tree to help catalogers decide when it might be time to look outside LCSH to describe their resources. \nRegister @ SCRLC URL:https://clrc.org/event/scrlc-webinar-alt-vocab/ LOCATION:Online Via Zoom\, NY\, United States CATEGORIES:Continuing Education,Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://clrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/SCRLC-Logo-w-tag-rgb.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240508T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240508T113000 DTSTAMP:20240328T061308 CREATED:20240315T142630Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240315T142649Z UID:10001748-1715162400-1715167800@clrc.org SUMMARY:ESLN Webinar: Basic Book Repair for Libraries DESCRIPTION:Webinar Description: \nBinding quality on books is inconsistent and with day to day handling and repeated circulation books can sustain significant damage.

What they have in common is the drive to work hard to overcome steep barriers in obtaining a college education. \nSupporting Student Parents in the Academic Library: Designing Spaces\, Policies\, and Services is part toolkit\, part treatise\, and part call to action. In four parts: \n\nThe Higher Education Landscape\nThe Role of Academic Libraries\nLooking Outward to Community\, For-Profit\, and International Organizations\nEvaluating Needs and Measuring Success\n\nIt includes templates\, sample policy language\, budgets\, survey instruments\, and other immediately useful tools and examples. There are field notes from academic librarians from institutions of varying sizes and resources demonstrating different ways of supporting these students\, and the voices of students themselves. \nStudent parents can feel unwelcome and invisible in their institutions. And for every student parent who is struggling to complete an education despite these hurdles\, there are many others who have not been able to find a way. Supporting Student Parents is a guide to engaging with and aiding the student parents in your libraries and leading the charge in making your institutions more family friendly.” \nKelsey Keyes is an Emerita Professor at Boise State University\, where she worked as a research and instruction librarian from 2012–2023. She holds a Masters of Library and Information Science and a Masters of English Literature from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

In this revelatory new portrait of the preacher and activist who shook the world\, the bestselling biographer gives us an intimate view of the courageous and often emotionally troubled human being who demanded peaceful protest for his movement but was rarely at peace with himself. He casts fresh light on the King family’s origins as well as MLK’s complex relationships with his wife\, father\, and fellow activists. King reveals a minister wrestling with his own human frailties and dark moods\, a citizen hunted by his own government\, and a man determined to fight for justice even if it proved to be a fight to the death. As he follows MLK from the classroom to the pulpit to the streets of Birmingham\, Selma\, and Memphis\, Eig dramatically re-creates the journey of a man who recast American race relations and became our only modern-day founding father―as well as the nation’s most mourned martyr. \nIn this landmark biography\, Eig gives us an MLK for our times: a deep thinker\, a brilliant strategist\, and a committed radical who led one of history’s greatest movements\, and whose demands for racial and economic justice remain as urgent today as they were in his lifetime.” \nRegister @ LILRC URL:https://clrc.org/event/lilrc-webinar-jonathan-eig/ LOCATION:Online Via Zoom\, NY\, United States CATEGORIES:Continuing Education,Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://clrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Acronym_Gradient.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240716T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240716T130000 DTSTAMP:20240328T061308 CREATED:20240305T134024Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240305T134149Z UID:10001737-1721120400-1721134800@clrc.org SUMMARY:ESLN Workshop: Building Your Research Data Management Toolkit - Integrating RDM into Your Liaison Work DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Christina Chan-Park & Laura Palumbo for ACRL\nCost: $100 per seat\n(only available to individuals in New York State.
