Agenda: October 11, 2017

  1. Agenda: October 11, 2017

    1. Housekeeping- Kelee taking notes

    2. Announcements- starting in January, Kelly will be on remote contract until the end of June.  Mark is also leaving to take a position at Vanderbilt University, in December.  Repurpose our December meeting for social.

    3. Goal setting:

      1. Develop an instructional philosophy aligned with information literacy components of Cornell’s Undergraduate Learning Outcomes and publicize on our website.

        1. Ex: OSU and Arizona 

        2. is this vision or mission?  - mission, it aims to define out current work and purpose of such work Purpose would be outward facing- for faculty and admin to find.  Show our commitment to the university goals. Follows best practices.  Talk about this with library directors meeting- outreach can look at this.  Good timing to get a sense of library instruction in our portfolio of services. Develop a timely service. Would create consistency in the message and consensus.  Could do a retreat to work on this with post-its?  Get feedback from library directors to get information to include. Need to find a time to retreat.

      2. Develop a strategy to market our workshops to students, faculty, and staff using library and non-library channels.     There is a subteam for outreach to address this.

      3. Continue to provide relevant professional development to instructors across CUL, specially exploring online design and instruction. Talked about e-learning being a potential focus for professional development- ranging from online learning, hybrid technologies and so on. Talked about CTI- online design workshop for librarians.

    4. Sub-team updates

      1. Assessment- Oct 20 Fall CLIQ refresher, preparing to share overview and recommendation on assessment.  Participation is declining. Trying to refresh and make sure work is useful and assessment serves a purpose.  We will have four semester to share.  Continue to assess your students.

      2. Program- small update. Dec 13 tentative date for end of semester event.

      3. Libguides- Springshare programs- what that looks look to have a shared meeting for libstaffer, libcal, libscheduler, and libguides.  PTAC is reviewing libstaff and the Mann program. Libguides needs to meet to talk about who will lead in the future.

    5. PowerNotes at Cornell

      1. Programming-  Webinar for us during November meeting.  Not marketing but how to use.  Need to verify it is not just html, and not pdf.  Need to get on R&O agenda (December maybe).   Citation source identification is still iffy. PDF functionality seems to not be working.  Who should we share this with? Tutoring center, Knight Writing.  Still have some details to work out.  Everyone please test out the system and make a list of questions to ask PN about when we do training.

      2. Outreach- follows outside of training with PN

    6. Preparing for Instruction Update at Library Directors Meeting-  Nov 13 meeting.  

      1. Assessment

  1. Agenda, September 13, 2017 
    1. House keeping -Kelee Notetaking
    2. Announcements-  Powernotes announcement- Need to check if it is device specific, or related to account.  Need to research Chrome, adding an extension to a library computer and see if can login.  Kelee needs to send the link to PSEC Instruction and let everyone know they can create an account to test it.  We need a roll out team- Kelee, and Communication and outreach team (as available), Nina maybe?  Aliqae- liaise with liaisons. 
    3. Orientation feedback from those who taught workshops- blanket statement- numbers were way down.. what might cause this?  we did not see parents as usual... what might be having an effect on this?.  Events that fall outside the calendar may not be promoted.  This is a 'wicked' problem.  Consider CUL vs library level orientation, example of ILR orientation events.   Faculty seem a bit busier as well.  Need to consider capacity  What makes the best use of our time and is effective for meeting the needs of the students.  How can we get on college level new student orientation events?? 
    4. How we work with Library Director's leadership team-  Mary- can the instruction group get on the LDLT meeting to run issue by them: assessment, orientation, others.  We are a case study in how groups work with LDLT.  How do we give feedback to and feedback from, and how do we get on agenda's.  We can shape the goal, what do we want to convey and what is important for the coming year.  what are sticking points.  what input do we need. Need to consider work with CTI and other departments on campus. How are director's using the assessment data. what information do they need from us to advocate for the library on the university level.  What's next for us?- next meeting in early october and retreat in early october... but perhaps we can be ready for a november meeting?  Want to make sure we include a component for international students, and students traveling internationally.   An the upside: fake news is drawing attention, new UP and UL are both interested in IL, this is our moment.  What do we do as CUL and align goals down and up. Keep this on the agenda for next meeting, we want everyone in PSEC instruction to have a say.  Want this finalized for Nov. meeting   (side note Look up #CUSciStory)
    5. Goal setting-  Kelee will find goals from last year.  Need to see what Kelly meant with i-iii

PSEC Instruction – June 15, 2017

  1. Missing notes for April.  Who took these notes?
  2. Welcome to new members – Tom Ottaviano, Camille Andrews, Mark Williams
  3. Sub-team updates:
    1. LibGuides – U Wisc wants to borrow our LibGuides page.  Kelly created this and is talking with them.  No problem sharing.
    2. Programming – End of year event feedback was almost entirely positive.  Some feedback that morning intro content was unnecessary.  Good feedback about the Fake News workshops.  A little rushed in lightning round.  Consider this feedback for programming for next year. 
    3. Assessment – Team held refresher for Mann Librarians on CLIQ.  Will do these on request.  Will also host open sessions for all librarians.  Team has received data from Spring semester.  Participation is going down.  Reviewed annual goals – rename survey, coordinate with assessment, host practitioner discussions.  Team has created annual timeline.  Will hand this off to next team.  Will close out work at last meeting.  Remaining goal – unit targets for distribution.  Will check in with administration to see if data is useful.  Is it useful for discussions with faculty?  Rely on admin advocacy for librarian buy in.  Xin has asked for priority topics for UL.  This could be one.  Tony noted that Olin librarians indicated that they did not get anything actionable from the Fall 2016 results.  Olin will be surveying faculty that they work with.  Instructors send email to faculty they have worked with.  Are they happy with “the product”?  Kelee and Kelly got very good feedback from their talk at LOEX about assessment.  Impressed that central unit helps with analyzing the results.  CLIQ survey is useful for accreditation report.  Malikah has left Cornell, so she has left this team.  Mary will bring assessment issue to Library Directors Leadership Team and Xin.
    4. Info Lit/Instruction Leadership – Kelly is recruiting instructors for the orientation sessions for August 2017 – Getting Started and Intro to Academic Library.  Intro to Academic Library is our contribution to Cornell internationalization efforts.  Mann Stone Lab was not reserved for the scheduled sessions.  Tom and Kelee will look for other options.  Kelly will follow up with Melanie.  We proposed asking Matt and Sean to record the sessions.  Would this be useful?  May be hard to video an interactive session. Kelly mentioned the online teaching workshop on June 14.  Would like to have same workshop for library instructors – possible end of semester event.  
    5. Master list of workshops – grad students have requested this.  Oya also had a need for this.  Online calendar may be able to show this, but should we do joint marketing?  For example, poster in Olin elevators only includes Olin workshops – should we do a group list for all CUL workshops? What is the goal?  Should we have a marketing/communication sub-team?  Yes.  Change default on libcal calendar?  List vs. monthly.  Is there expectation that workshops are added to CU Events calendar?  Mann and Olin are doing this.  Add widget saying – Not seeing a workshop you want?  Ask a librarian.  Brand the libcal with Cornell branding.  Will continue discussion at next meeting
    6. Travel fellowship – Camille and Sara E.  Presentation time and format tbd.
    7. Kelly – Immersion report - group discussion.  Kelly needs to create a SWOT report in preparation for immersion.  How many librarians involved in instruction?  Is anyone more than 50% devoted to instruction?  Tony and Kelee have over 50%.  What about law?  Mostly credit classes.  Gaby calculated ratio of librarians who teach to students.  Kornelia may have done something about aggregated teaching tally.   Decentralized environment makes it hard to scaffold instruction across the university.
    8. Digital literacy site: http://digitalliteracy.cornell.edu  - did not have time to look at this.  Will need to move to next agenda.
