Uploadable Content: Collaboration in a Video Game Advisory Team
College & Research Libraries News, 2017Co-Authors: Lydia Harlan, Derek Cloo, Jimmy L. Murray, Kate Louise Smith, Annie Zeidman-karpinskiAbstract:A misunderstanding led to the creation of University of Oregon (UO) Libraries’ video game collection. We thought we were replicating the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign’s (UIUC) Library collection. One UO subject Specialist Librarian got permission from her supervisor, gift money from an administrator, and since she wasn’t a gamer, asked around about what video games and consoles to buy and how to do it. As we set up this collection, we found out that UIUC didn’t let patrons take the games and consoles with peripherals home with them, as we were planning to do. With no space for the consoles in the library and a firm belief that material should circulate, this initial misunderstanding forced us to invent processes and procedures to handle the collection. What follows is our description of how our Video Game Advisory Team was formed, and how our team adds value to the gaming collection and culture at our library. We will discuss the evolution of our video game acquisition process, our circulation practice and statistics, and issues with the trend towards downloadable content.

Evaluation of the mental health Specialist Librarian role
2014Co-Authors: Helen Wilding, Jeremy TaylorAbstract:The mental health Specialist role was introduced by St Vincent's Hospital Library Service in November 2012. It aimed to raise awareness and uptake of the library's Specialist research services and to improve interdisciplinary and interdepartmental collaboration. The incumbent was Helen Wilding, a research Librarian with Specialist knowledge in the mental health area. As part of the role Helen was invited to join the Research and Academic Group of St Vincent's Mental Health, supported and collaborated with mental health staff at all levels on a variety of research projects, and distributed a regular current awareness bulletin, Mental Health Update, to approximately 400 staff. In addition, Helen and other library staff continued to offer the library's usual research support services hospital wide.

Implementing the mental health Specialist Librarian role at St Vincent's Hospital Melbourne
Health inform, 2014Co-Authors: Helen WildingAbstract:The role of health libraries has changed dramatically with the move to electronic resources, and with that has come a fantastic opportunity to reinvent ourselves as skilled consultants in the research environment. When electronic journals first made their appearance (and Google appeared), Librarians started to look like an endangered species. Would we still be needed in a world where people can conjure up almost anything at the click of a button?

The role of regulation in the care of older people with depression living in long-term care: a systematic scoping review
BMC Geriatrics, 2020Co-Authors: Michelle Crick, Robin Devey-burry, Douglas E. Angus, Chantal BackmanAbstract:Background This aim of this study was to explore the role of regulation on the quality of care of older people living with depression in LTC, which in this paper is a domestic environment providing 24-h care for people with complex health needs and increased vulnerability. Methods We conducted a systematic scoping review. A peer reviewed search strategy was developed in consultation with a Specialist Librarian. Several databases were searched to identify relevant studies including: Embase (using the OVID platform); MEDLINE (using the OVID platform); Psych info (using the OVID platform); Ageline (using the EBSCO platform); and CINHAL (using the EBSCO platform). Articles were screened by three reviewers with conflicts resolved in consultation with authors. Data charting was completed by one reviewer, with a quality check performed by a second reviewer. Key themes were then derived from the included studies. Results The search yielded 778 unique articles, of which 20 were included. Articles were grouped by themes: regulatory requirements, funding issues, and organizational issues. Conclusion The highly regulated environment of LTC poses significant challenges which can influence the quality of care of residents with depression. Despite existing evidence around prevalence and improved treatment regimens, regulation appears to have failed to capture the best practice and contemporary knowledge available. This scoping review has identified a need for further empirical research to explore these issues.

The Enhanced and Changing Role of the Specialist Librarian
The Reference Librarian, 2003Co-Authors: Johnnieque B. LoveAbstract:Summary Much like the role of other academic Librarians, the education Librarian's responsibilities are in a constant state of transition. Major factors contributing to these changes are demands being placed on teacher training programs in colleges of education, demands placed on teachers and administrators in the nation's schools, demographic shifts, globalization, declining accessibility of resources along with the digital divide, and, most of all, greater demands for accountability of student achievement at all levels of education. The work of the education Librarian has become more integrated in the creation and access of knowledge both in the library profession, and education itself. Education Librarians not only have close ties to school curriculum being taught but also with the preparation of preservice teachers, students enrolled in advanced graduate studies, and the education researcher. This article will review the literature on the role of the education subject Specialist in Librarianship, and ...

The enhanced and changing role of the Specialist Librarian: Survey of education Librarians
The Reference Librarian, 2002Co-Authors: Johnnieque B. LoveAbstract:Much like the role of other academic Librarians, the education Librarian's responsibilities are in a constant state of transition. Major factors contributing to these changes are demands being placed on teacher training programs in colleges of education, demands placed on teachers and administrators in the nation's schools, demographic shifts, globalization, declining accessibility of resources along with the digital divide, and, most of all, greater demands for accountability of student achievement at all levels of education. The work of the education Librarian has become more integrated in the creation and access of knowledge both in the library profession, and education itself. Education Librarians not only have close ties to school curriculum being taught but also with the preparation of preservice teachers, students enrolled in advanced graduate studies, and the education researcher. This article will review the literature on the role of the education subject Specialist in Librarianship, and how that role has been changed due to a variety of reasons. Findings will be discussed from an informal survey on how education Librarians perceive their roles in their institutions.
