The Bb Librarian service is not only a practical
alternative to many of the embedded librarian
strategies, including co-teaching, learning
communities, and collaboration (Frazier Young
Ferrier-Vincent Wijaysundara and others). The
service philosophically and pedagogically
strengthens the connections between IL
instruction and reference/ research services.

Arts of Japan Library Questionnaire
  • Although no student contacted the librarian for
    help with the Art Research Tutorial Exercise,
    33 students indicated that they did learn
    something new.

Art Abstracts Video
  • 27 students watched the Art Abstracts video
  • 19 students thought the video was helpful
  • The video is useful for newer students. I
    already know how to use these system. The video
    would be great for newer non- experience user.

Comments
Was a nice balance between finding things easily
and having to look around quite a bit.
Useful. this is really helpful that i can
search more information about this class. i
can't learn when someone dictates to me i need to
been shown privately in a one on one session or i
get lost. By this point I'm comfortable doing
research on my own and would probably not need
another in-person library session, but the
library sessions that I took when I first started
doing research at NP were very helpful.

Comments
I thought it was great! If in person or online
at your own pace and time I truly thought the
tutorial was effective. its always fun to
learn new things, helps me better understand how
to go about looking for certain things Not
sure what to say... Its a great sources for all
student. I have used this service several times.
This isn't my first time to use this blackboard
under Library. the school databases are really
bad. I dont get why we have to use them, i can
never get good information from them, sometimes i
have to stretch out info so it looks better. Why
cant anyhting have a layout like wikipedia. even
though it is not a scholoraly website, the layout
of information is way more productive. Get your
information and get out.

Critical Issues
  • Face-to-Face Online similar issues
  • Course-related vs. Integrated dependent upon
    partnership between course instructor
    librarian
  • Librarian Access to Control Panel
  • Assessment
  • Online asynchronous communication

29
The Future
  • Continue to develop partnerships
  • Revisit Composition IL program?
  • Other Issues?
  • Questions?
