Books in the series combine provocative arguments with practical insights, examining professional values and current innovations in archival and library practice. The archives profession has long been seen as primarily concerned with the past. Archival Futures points to the respon sibility that archivists and allied information professionals have to shape the present and future. This series seeks to engage with the urgent questions embedded within archival work and processes, inviting discussion about the social responsibility of citizens to shape a historical record that better documents all aspects of the human experience.

In this book they share their experiences alongside contributors from other institutions, spotlighting the ways in which people and books are central to fulfilling the library’s mission, including À the “Open Stacks” concept and methodologies being developing at ASU; À haptic learning and information literacy; À Latin American collections in American research libraries; À the St. Louis Model for Shared Regional collection as an approach for arranging cooperative FDLP collections outside consortial settings; À efforts toward increasing inclusion in library collections at the University of Denver; and À an open digital future for the Library of Congress.

Open Praxis, Open Access: Digital Scholarship in Action

Edited by Darren Chase and Dana Haugh | PRINT: 978-0-8389-1867-8

Many in the world of scholarship share the conviction that open access will be the engine of transforma tion leading to more culture, more research, more discovery, and more solutions to small and big problems. This collection brings together librarians, scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and thinkers to take mea sure of the open access movement. The editors meld critical essays, research, and case studies to offer an authoritative exploration of À the concept of openness in scholarship, with an overview of how it is evolving in the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia; À open access publishing, including funding models and the future of library science journals; À the state of institutional repositories; À Open Educational Resources (OER) at universities and a consortium, in subject areas ranging from literary studies to textbooks; and À open science, open data, and a pilot data catalog for raising the visibility of protected data.

This text provides models and tools that will enable library staff who serve youth to create and maintain collections that provide equitable access to all youth. And as Hughes-Hassell demonstrates, the only way to do this is for collection managers to be learner-centered, confidently acting as information guides, change agents, and leaders. Many customizable tools and templates are included.

—Technicalities

“By focusing on the most important elements of troubleshooting as they arise in a library-specific context, the authors fulfill their promise . . . [This guide] is not only quite readable from cover to cover, but also perhaps serviceable in the longer term as a ready reference for the troubleshooting e-resource librarian. It is written in clear and unadorned prose, with helpful visualizations and abundant bibliographic references. I enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to colleagues in libraries and other resource-based institutions, whose work depends on reliable access to electronic resources—which these days is more or less everyone.”

”Certainly a timely publication as our profession strives to address the troubling issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the environments in which we work . . . Hughes-Hassell writes clearly and persuasively. I recommend this book not only to those who work with children and teens, but to all who work in libraries. Far too many library practitioners remain unaware of the biases that are present in our library collections and services. [It] would also be an excellent textbook.”

RDA: Resource Description and Access is an interna tional standard for the creation of library and cultural heritage metadata for use in the ever-expanding digital environment. In December 2020 the RDA Toolkit Restructure and Redesign (3R) Project, which improved the Toolkit user experience by adding greater flexibility and utility, was completed and a revised RDA Toolkit became the official version of the standard. The original RDA Toolkit remains available to all subscribers. The advantages of an RDA Toolkit subscription include the ability to À use both versions during this period of transition; À read policy statements from international libraries, including the Library of Congress, British Library, and Deutsche Nationalbibliothek; À create bookmarks, notes, and documents that can be private or shared; À access MARC-RDA mappings; À set toolkit preferences for individuals or institutions; À search and browse instructions in numerous languages, including Catalan, English, French, Finnish, German, Italian, Norwegian, and Spanish, with Arabic and Hungarian lan guages to come; and À view procedurals and other documentation produced by other subscribers. For pricing and subscription information, visit www.rdatoolkit.org.

The only workbook created for the new RDA, this resource is an important tool that will help readers at any level of experience develop and strengthen their understanding of RDA content and structure.

With the extensive changes to RDA and the RDA Toolkit brought about by the 3R Project, the need for a truly practical tool for learning RDA has never been more acute. Designed to be used by practitioners, training staff, and in the classroom or by students individually, this workbook offers a self-paced way to become familiar with the new RDA Toolkit. Current with RDA instructions through the September 2020 update to RDA and MARC 21 updates through May 2020, it serves as a bridge between theoretical concepts and hands-on cataloging. James, whose experience includes former cataloging policy specialist at the Library of Congress, former member of the RDA Steering Committee, former RDA Examples Editor, and former member of the RDA 3R Core Team, covers all 13 entities as well as the Toolkit’s organization and interface. Included are a variety of MARC and non-MARC exercises designed to give practical experience using the new RDA Toolkit, with application profile assumptions that mimic a real cataloging environment. 2021 | softcover 248 pp | 8.5" x 11" $59.99 | Members: $53.99

This hands-on guide for managers and leaders, written by a practitioner with many years’ experience in the field, covers all key aspects of KM strategy, from basic concepts on knowledge, strategies, and KM to designing knowledge strategies and implementing them through organizational change. The book begins by introducing the theoretical underpinnings of knowledge management and the back ground of the discipline.

Power Lines: Connecting with Teens in Urban Communities Through Media Literacy

Children’s

Many people want to engage with racial issues, but they often don’t know how or are hesitant to take the first steps. This includes children’s librarians, who are taking seriously our profession’s calls for diversity, equity, and inclusion. This book shows public and school librarians how to normalize conversations about racial issues with children, their caregivers, and storytime attendees, as well as their colleagues.

Information and digital literacies are essential skills in today’s media-saturated world. But minoritized and economically disadvantaged youth in urban communities often lack these critical competencies. Offering a multi-faceted perspective, this book guides those who serve teens in libraries towards implementing innovative and transformative learning experiences. Librarians and YA specialists who serve urban youth in public, school, and academic libraries will

According to the Pew Research Group, Asian Americans are the fastest-growing racial group in the U.S.; simultaneously, hate incidents directed at Asian American individuals and groups are on the rise. Asian American children’s and young adult literature, one of the most vibrant yet underexamined bodies of works in the larger canon, constitutes an important means of both encouraging inclusivity and celebrat ing Asian American children’s heritage. In this pathbreaking guide, the authors delve into the context and content of Asian American stories for youth by À tracing the ways in which these titles continue to diversify; À exploring key themes in Asian American lit, including folklore, immigration, intergenerational conflict, cultural conflict, and multiracial characters; À surveying notable titles and authors, valuable for collection development, programming, and courses in Asian American Studies; and À incorporating interviews with authors, illustrators, librarians, and other key figures.Members: $44.99
