Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents detailed data and commentary on the policies and plans of higher education institutions for their group study rooms and spaces. The report helps its readers to answer questions such as: How many group study rooms do colleges maintain and what are their plans for them in the future? How are they equipped? What percentage are soundproofed? Have desktop computers? Smartboards? Whiteboards? Ethernet Ports? How did librarians plan their size configuration? Or their placement in the library? What are their policies regarding reservations, limits on use, rental to outsiders, food and beverage consumption and other issues? What type of student uses the group study rooms the most and what do they tell librarians when they are surveyed about group study rooms? How different are the group study room policies and plans for library buildings built before 1962 vs those built after 1998? If librarians plan to add more group study rooms from what areas of the library is the space coming? How are projects being funded? Just a few of this 81-page report s many findings are that: In 2015 the mean number of group study rooms and spaces provided by the libraries sampled increased by 7.85%. 25% of the libraries sampled offered single person enclosed study rooms intended for individuals and not for group study. A mean of 67.77% of the group study rooms in the sample were equipped with whiteboards. For colleges charging more than $25,000 per year in annual tuition, 65.31% of group study rooms had Ethernet ports. 43 colleges participated in the study, largely from the USA but also from Canada, the UK, Singapore, and China. The sample comprises 17 private and 27 public colleges or universities; 11 research universities, 8 community colleges, 12 4-year colleges and 12 MA/PHD granting institutions that are not research universities. Participants include Duke University, the University of Stirling, the Medical College of Wisconsin, the Metropolitan University of London, USC and many others."

This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic libraries have traditionally had two key functions, to support teaching and to support research. In an evolving and competitive university environment, along with the emergence of various technologies and substantial changes in scientific communication, university management has reached a turning point. Academic libraries are facing a paradigm shift in the role they need to play to achieve the research objectives of universities. Research support services in academic libraries have evolved as a response to these changes. They are heterogeneous, adapt to their university culture, adopt different points of view, take different approaches in their organizational structures, and include a diverse catalog of activities. Having an overview of different experiences will allow libraries to adopt best practices, redefine services, and even establish new management and collaboration models. Cases on Research Support Services in Academic Libraries is a critical scholarly resource that uses case studies to systematize the experiences of research support services in academic libraries for the support of higher education faculty. The cases focus on such items as the role of technology and its impact as well as how these services help to improve the excellence of universities. Featuring a wide range of topics such as library services, data management, and open science, this book is ideal for librarians, academicians, professionals, researchers, and students.
Download or read book Unions for Academic Library Support Staff written by James Kusack and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986-10-21 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first book-length study of collective bargaining by library support staff employees, Professor Kusack addresses issues that will help to determine the future of the nation's academic libraries. He begins by discussing current trends and the history of collective bargaining in university libraries. The collective bargaining literature dealing with white collar and clerical employees is reviewed, and implications for libraries--especially possible changes in compensation levels and shifts in productivity--are considered. The results of a comparative study of more than 200 university libraries with and without staff unions are presented in detail. The analysis provides information on how unionization affects compensation patterns, selected employment policies and practices, and personnel and budget characteristics; and it examines the relationships between environment variables, including the type of institutional control and the level of unionization in the state and region. Finally, the author summarizes the results and possible implications of this and other research and suggests techniques and areas for study that might prove productive.
