Emerging Strategies for Supporting Student Learning A practical guide for librarians and educators
Principles and practice
More than ever, librarians are required to possess pedagogical expertise and are called upon to design, implement, and assess robust evidence-based reference and instructional practices that contribute to student success. In order to achieve these goals, librarians must know how to teach information literacy skills that go far beyond one particular library context, in order to facilitate lifelong learning. In addition to the traditional information expertise of the library professional, today’s librarian must also master evidence-based pedagogical practices that can help make learning stick.
Barbara Allan, author and trainer 2016 | 192pp Pb | £49.95 9781783300709 Hb | £99.95 9781783301072 eBook 9781783301461
NEW
Offering plentiful examples of pedagogy in action, this book covers:
• 6 cognitive principles for organizing information literacy instruction, with sample worksheets and organization tools for instruction planning • how to establish rapport and build learners’ motivation • tactics for creating research assignments • educational evidence debunking the mythical perception that because students are skilled at computers and mobile technology, they already know how to do research • questions to keep in mind for inspiring autonomous learning • the power of story, as described by Joan Didion, Brené Brown’s Ted Talk, and educational psychology research • the science behind information overload • a balanced framework for evaluating specific educational technology tools.
Readership: Fusing theory with practice, this handbook is a valuable resource to help every librarian connect with learners more effectively.
This new edition covers new skills, such as:
Readership: Anyone who has to answer enquiries from users in any environment, those working in contact centres and information professionals working on enquiry desks.
Kevin Michael Klipfel and Dani Brecher Cook, University of California, Riverside
Jul 2017 | 224pp Pb | £59.95 9781783302543
This book guides the reader step-by-step through all stages of the research process, from finding out what the enquirer really wants, to providing a polished, actionable, value-added answer.
• employing critical analysis to manipulate, categorise and prioritise raw search results • using strategic reading and abstracting techniques to identify and summarise the essential information the enquirer needs from the retrieved documents • drawing on established story-telling techniques to present research results effectively – whether orally or in writing • working to the POWER model: plan, organise, write, edit, review.
Learner-centred Pedagogy
Today’s emphasis on metrics and personalization make evidence-based instruction an imperative. This book offers librarians concrete, empirically-based strategies to connect with learners at all levels.

This book introduces the range of management skills employed by records managers and archivists, and shows how they may be applied, adding value both in terms of personal professional development and in the organizational benefits of service delivery, excellence, accountability and transparency.

The Silence of the Archive
David Thomas, University of Northumbria, Simon Fowler, University of Dundee, and Valerie Johnson, The National Archives
In recent years big data initiatives, not to mention Hollywood, the video game industry and countless other popular media, have reinforced and even glamorized the public image of the archive as the ultimate repository of May 2017 | 224pp facts and the hope of future generations for uncovering Pb | £59.95 ‘what actually happened’. The reality is, however, that for 9781783301553 Hb | £119.95 all sorts of reasons the record may not have been 9781783301560 preserved or survived in the archive. In fact, the record eBook may never have even existed – its creation being as 9781783301577 imagined as is its contents. And even if it does exist, it may be silent on the salient facts, or it may obfuscate, mislead or flat out lie. The Silence of the Archive is written by three expert archivists and draws attention to the many limitations of archives and the inevitability of their having parameters.
Silences or gaps in archives range from details of individuals’ lives to records of state oppression or of intelligence operations. The book brings together ideas from a wide range of fields, including contemporary history, family history research and Shakespearian studies. It describes why these silences exist, what the impact of them is, how researchers have responded to them, and what the silence of the archive means for researchers in the digital age. It will help provide a framework and context to their activities and enable them to better evaluate archives in a posttruth society.
Readership: This book will make compelling reading for professional archivists, records managers, postgraduate and undergraduate students of history, archives, librarianship and information studies, as well as academics and other users of archives. BESTSELLER

Geoffrey Yeo, a distinguished expert in the global field, explores concepts of ‘records’ and ‘archives’ and sets today’s record-keeping and archival practices in their historical context. He examines changing perceptions of the nature and purpose of records management and archival work, notions of convergence among information-related disciplines, and archivists’ and records managers’ attitudes to information and its governance.
Starting with Peter Morville’s dictum that ‘when we try to define information, we become lost in a hall of mirrors’, Yeo considers different understandings of the concept of ‘information’ and their applicability to the field of archives and records management. He also looks at the world of data science and data administration, and asks whether and how far recent work in this area can enhance our knowledge of how records function and how they relate to the information universe.

This book draws on the contributions of a range of international experts to discuss the archival landscape over the 20-30 years. Firmly rooted in past and current scholarship, Future Archives offers thought provoking and accessible chapters that aim to challenge and inspire archivists globally.
It is widely acknowledged that the archive profession/discipline is facing a time of change. The digital world has presented changes in how records are created, used, stored and communicated. At the same time, there is increased public debate over issues such as ownership of and access to information, surveillance and privacy. On a practical level archivists are being asked to do more, to have a greater range of skills, often with increasingly restricted resources. Exploring the potential impact of these changes is timely. Such reflections will provide the opportunity to consider the archivists purpose and role, discuss the practical impact of change on skills and functions and to articulate what can be contributed to a mid 21 century world. Content covered includes:
• The role of archives in relation to individuals, organisations, communities and society • how appraisal, arrangement, description and access might be affected in the future • The impact of changing societal expectations in terms of access to information, how information is exchanged, and how things are recorded and remembered • The place of traditional archives • Competition or opportunity offered by other information, cultural or IT related professions • New ethical challenges.
Readership: this book will appeal to will appeal to an international audience of students, academics and practitioners in archival science, records management, and library & information science.

This book offers a comprehensive, entry-level guide that focuses explicitly on how to collect and manage born-digital content for ‘boots on the ground’ practitioners.
Libraries and archives of all sizes are collecting and managing an increasing proportion of digital content. Within this body of digital content is a growing pool of ‘born-digital’ content: content that has been created and has often existed solely in digital form. Providing continued, sustainable access to a wide array of born-digital content is a challenge for libraries and archives, particularly because of the broad and highly technical skills needed to build and sustain born-digital content management workflows. The No Nonsense Guide to Born Digital Content provides an entry-level how-to guide that aims to help ease inexperienced students and practitioners into this area. It explains step by step processes for developing and implementing born-digital content workflows in library and archive settings of all sizes and includes a range of case studies collected from small, medium and large institutions internationally. Including:
• the wide range of digital storage media and why this is different to, and similar to, existing content • the various sources of born-digital content and how they are appraised and considered for collection • retrieving and preparing content to allow it to be brought into the library or archive • storage systems and applying archival arrangement philosophies • description, preservation and access • methods for designing workflows for born-digital collection processing • strategies and philosophies to move forward as technologies change.
Readership: This book will be useful reading for LIS and archival students and professionals who are working with, or plan to work with, born digital content. It will also be of interest to museum professionals, data managers, data scientists, and records managers.

“For information managers in organizations this book will be very useful. It is also of the kind that most students appreciate very much: it provides unambiguous answers to potential questions and solutions to the problems that are commonly met at everyday work.” - Information Research
The importance of information needs analysis is widely recognized by information professionals, but currently there is little substantive, detailed work in the professional literature devoted to this important topic. This book is designed to fill that gap, by supporting practitioners in developing an information needs analysis strategy, and offering the necessary professional skills and techniques to do so. It will offer guidance to team leaders and senior managers in all areas of library work, especially those involved in collection management, service provision and web development, and is equally applicable to the needs of academic, public, government, commercial and other more specialized library and information services.

“...this collection fulfils its stated goal of presenting ‘a snapshot of current research and development as well as outlining the various challenges and trends of research in relation to the creation, access and management of digital cultural heritage information systems and services’...Since this is the first title in the new iResearch series from Facet Publishing...it is to be hoped that future volumes in this series are as relevant, comprehensive, and wellstructured.” - Digital Scholarship in the Humanities
This book provides an overview of various challenges and contemporary research activities in cultural heritage information focusing particularly on the cultural heritage content types, their characteristic and digitization challenges; cultural heritage content organization and access issues; users and usability as well as various policy and sustainability issues associated with digital cultural heritage information systems and services.
Cultural Heritage Information, the first book in the peer-reviewed iResearch series, contains eleven chapters that have been contributed by seventeen leading academics from six countries. The book begins with an introductory chapter that provides a brief overview of the topic of digital cultural heritage information with the subsequent chapters addressing specific issues and research activities in this topic. The ordering of the chapters moves from scene setting on policies and infrastructures, through considerations of interaction, access and objects, through to concrete system implementations. The book concludes by looking forward to issues around sustainability, in the widest sense, that are necessary to think about in order to maximize the availability and longevity of our digital cultural heritage.

Process and Information Practice for Information Systems Edited by Christine Urquhart, Faten Hamad, Dina Tbaishat and Alison Yeoman
Dec 2017 | 288pp Pb | £64.95 9781783302413 Hb | £129.95 9781783302420 eBook 9781783302437
This book adopts a holistic interpretation of information architecture, to offer libraries and information professionals a variety of methods, tools, and techniques that may be used when designing websites and information systems that support workflows and what people require when “managing information”.
There is a gap in the middle for information services, with little on the ways of looking at the process architecture of a library and information service and on methods for business process analysis. Process and Information Practice for Information Systems aims to fill that gap with a combination of theory and supporting case studies written by an international line-up of contributors, including Sally Burford, Fernando Loizides, Catherine Burns and Adam Euerby.
The editors argue that information architecture for libraries has largely been the study of content architecture and that, on the other hand, library assessment literature has dealt with performance measurement and change management strategies. Case studies cover a wide variety of settings, from discrete resource discovery projects for academic and cultural institutions, through design for large organizational websites, the research evidence about user experience for semi-structured document design on websites, to the health sector with examples including patient support websites and clinical document management.

This book provides a ‘no-nonsense’ guide to project management which will enable library and information professionals to lead or take part in a wide range of projects from large-scale multi-organization complex projects through to relatively simple local ones.
Barbara Allan has fully revised and updated her classic 2004 title, Project Management, to incorporate considerable developments during the past decade, including: the development and wide-scale acceptance of formal project management methodologies; the use of social media to communicate and disseminate information about projects and the large shift in the types of project library and information workers may be involved in. The text is supported by practical case studies drawn from a wide range of LIS organizations at local, regional, national and international levels. These examples provide an insight into good practice for the practitioner, from an individual working in a voluntary organization on an extremely limited budget, to someone involved in an international project. Content covered includes:
• an introduction to project management, project workers and the library and information profession • different approaches to project management, the project cycle, the people side of projects and management of change • discussion of project methodologies, project management software, open source software, collaborative working software and use of social media • project initiation, communication, analysis and project briefs • developing project infra-structure, scheduling, working out the finances and carrying out a detailed risk analysis • implementation, monitoring and reporting and identifying potential problems • current approaches to funding, bidding and tendering, and taking part in audits • working in partnerships, in diverse and virtual teams, and managing change.

It covers the three major research paradigms in information science, then reviewing the literature, defining the research, the proposal, sampling, ethics, research methods, the type of question the methods can be used for, and how to design it, including case studies, surveys, experimental research, Delphi studies, action research, historical research, and grounded theory. It also details data collection techniques (interviews, questionnaires, observation, diaries, and focus groups), and qualitative and quantitative data analysis and research presentation. The philosophy and theory behind the research is included only for context; emphasis is on the research process itself. This edition adds two chapters by guest authors on data research management and the analysis of existing documents. The chapters on usability testing and ethnography have been expanded to include ethnography and other material.” - Reference and Research Book News

“The format of this second edition is apparently similar to that of the first (2009), with the regular use of short scenarios or ‘vignettes’ used frequently within each chapter to illustrate new subjects. This approach is designed to increase the readability of the text (in which it succeeds) while aiming to offer examples of ‘real-life’ everyday situations for those managing libraries in secondary schools. The contributors note that the vignettes are drawn from comments and queries on the popular School Librarian Network, and this gives them a ring of authenticity.” - Ariadne

Reading by Right
Successful strategies to ensure every child can read to succeed
Edited by Joy Court, CILIP CKG Working Party Chair With a foreword by Chris Riddell, former Children’s Laureate
Literacy has now been recognized as a human right for over 50 years in several international declarations and initiatives. Every child has a right to read and we have a social responsibility, as parents, teachers, librarians, publishers, booksellers, campaigners and policy makers to ensure that they are able to exercise that right.
Reading by Right: Successful strategies to ensure every child can read to succeed provides a collection of chapters from international experts covering aspects of overcoming reading difficulties or reading reluctance in children and young people. The book reveals strategies that are proving effective in overcoming barriers to reading from birth to teens, looking at practices and projects from around the globe and revealing some common principles and drivers that have generated success. Content covered includes:
• an examination of the current state of reading in the UK and internationally and what the latest research tells us about children who are failing to read • how youngsters become ‘reluctant readers’ and how to improve the situation for everyone • examples of successful projects from the Republic of Korea and Finland – countries that consistently perform well in reading tests and international league tables • analysis of diversity in publishing and children’s books, drawing on expertise from authors and publishers.
Readership: This book will be valuable for readers from all those professions that engage with young people and families and with the development of literacy, including librarians; teachers; service managers; consultants and other professional practitioners; and also to concerned parents. 3RD EDITION

This book will address the issues around valuing objects in cultural collections, ranging from high-value to low or no-value, including practical advice on how to assign values and examples from museums, libraries and archives.
The subject of valuation has always been challenging for museums and public collections and is becoming more urgent as monetary values of many items continue to break records. There is an increase in lending and borrowing, meaning more loans which require a value for insurance, whilst recent government initiatives such as Lifetime Giving mean that donations to the nation need to have a monetary value for tax purposes. At a time when loans and exhibitions are expanding to all corners of the world, while lenders are becoming more risk-averse, Valuing your Collection will address the issues and offer some solutions. Content covered includes: • • • • •
definitions of value and consideration of legal aspects guides to assigning value to individual objects and entire collections valuation, auctions and dealers analysis of real life case studies an explanation of the UK government valuation panel and the findings of the recent EU valuation report.
Readership: Museum staff, cultural heritage students, librarians, archivists, private collectors and anyone who needs practical guidance on valuation. 3RD EDITION
