This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only things librarians seem to encounter more often than acronyms are strings of jargon and arcane technical phrases—and there are so many floating around that even just reading an article in a professional journal can bewilder experienced librarians, to say nothing of those new to the profession! Featuring thousands of revised and brand new entries, the fourth edition of ALA Glossary of Library and Information Science presents a thorough yet concise guide to the specific words that describe the materials, processes and systems relevant to the field of librarianship. A panel of experts from across the LIS world have thoroughly updated the glossary to include the latest technology- and internet-related terms, covering metadata, licensing, electronic resources, instruction, assessment, readers’ advisory, and electronic workflow. This book will become an essential part of every library’s and librarian’s reference collection and will also be a blessing for LIS students and recent graduates.

Download or read book Academic Plagiarism Librarians Solo and Collaborative Efforts to Curb Academic Plagiarism written by Russell Michalak and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection is a compilation of practical case studies from academic libraries and librarians working with other college departments, faculty, and/or students. It chronicles their efforts to combat ongoing concerns related to intended and accidental student plagiarism due to the variety of definitions of plagiarism. The contributors to this collection are associated with colleges and universities from around the United States. The authors have a broad range of educational and professional experience and offer unique insights into the wide variety of methods used to help combat student plagiarism in academic libraries.This collection begins with the work of Sarah Clark (University of Manitoba) and Vickie Albrecht (University of Manitoba) as they share how the Academic Integrity Office, Academic Learning Centre, and Libraries at their university collaborated to pilot a program to deliver educational support to students involved in academic misconduct. Their chapter discusses the details of this pilot, as well as the challenges and opportunities that exist in offering educational support in a post-discipline setting.The work of Amy Dye-Reeves (Texas Tech University) shares how a librarian (Dye-Reeves) formed a partnership with the department of clinical psychology at Murray State University to create an academic dishonesty workshop. She describes the collaborative processes taken to develop a disciplinary-specific academic integrity workshop to curb students' plagiaristic behaviors.Sherri Brown (Florida State College at Jacksonville) shares how librarians and English faculty collaborated to design an assessment of students' information literacy skills in an English course. They subscribed to ProQuest's Research Companion database to identify how to cite correctly, paraphrases, and summarizing. This chapter shares the results from the assessment.Monica D. T. Rysavy (Rysavy & Michalak Consultants) and Russell Michalak (Partners in Rysavy & Michalak Consultants and Directors at Goldey-Beacom College) discuss how the Office of Institutional Research & Training and the Library and Learning Center's Information Literacy Assessment (ILA) program teaches students how to cite, and to write. The authors, who appended a survey to the ILA program, asked students to provide their definition of plagiarism and rate their perceptions of their peers' plagiaristic behaviors at Goldey-Beacom College. The contribution of Kimberley K. Vardeman (Texas Tech University) Cynthia L. Henry (Texas Tech University) discuss how as librarians, they partnered with IT, Worldwide E-Learning, and the Ethics Center to integrate the software (Turnitin and iThenticate) into the Learning Management System and to educate instructors about it. This chapter shares the benefits and drawbacks of librarians' serving as the role of enforcing academic integrity as opposed to serving as a support resource for the campus.Navadeep Kahnal (University of Missouri at Columbia) and Rhonda K. Whithaus (University of Missouri at Columbia) describe how students, as new initiates and trainees in the scholarly communication field, need to be trained not to plagiarize through education. The training students receive should show them the correct practices of scholarly communication and the reasons for it as well as the consequences of committing plagiarism.This collection is concluded with the work of Emmett Lombard (Gannon University) who discusses librarians' accommodations of international students, and how and why international students use the library. This chapter helps to frame how academic librarians can help international students avoid plagiarism.We believe this collection of chapters provides a unique overview of academic libraries and librarians partnerships with other departments at colleges and universities to help combat the continued concerns related to student plagiarism - both intended and accidental - due to the variety of definitions of plagiarism.
