Best Practices for Librarians Embedded in Online Courses
Date: 2010
Creator: Hoffman, Starr & Ramin, Lilly
Description: This article discusses embedded librarian services. Abstract: Academic librarians interested in collaborating with faculty in online courses often express questions about their role, level of involvement, and activities. This article provides a list of best practices to guide those developing embedded librarian services. The practices are drawn from a review of the literature, as case study of one embedded librarian's experiences, and a mixed methods study of embedded librarianship at six institutions. The resulting best practices will help embedded librarians collaborate effectively with faculty to create a positive learning experience for distance students.

Briefing the Case: Constitution Day Outreach to Campus and Community
Date: 2012
Creator: Leuzinger, Julie
Description: This article discusses Constitution Day outreach to campus and community. The celebration of Constitution Day (or Citizenship Day) on September 17th each year began in 2005 as a mandate for all publicly funded educational institutions to provide instructive activities that recognize the adoption of the United States Constitution in 1787 (U.S. Department of Education). There are many creative and engaging ways to commemorate the signing of our Constitution. The University of North Texas has its own traditions, which are shared in this document along with some other resources and ideas to get others started on Constitution Day celebrations at their own institutions.

Reducing Service Points in the Academic Library: How to Provide Quality Customer Service in the Face of Budget Cuts
Date: April 2013
Creator: Leuzinger, Julie
Description: This paper discusses how to provide quality customer service in the face of budget cuts. Abstract: Most academic libraries have been experiencing cutbacks in staff and resources and are expected to do more with less. In response to these cutbacks, the University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries came up with a plan to reduce the number of staffed service points. By the end of the Spring 2012 semester the UNT Libraries had successfully merged nine service points into three: two service desks at our main library and one at our science library. This paper will present an overview of the steps the UNT Libraries Public Services Division took to effectively manage these mergers. It will describe the methods used to cross train library support staff, and provide suggestions for other libraries who may also be considering streamlining their service points.
