The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse adopted the Sustaining Excellence Strategic Plan earlier this year. The plan has four pillars: Increasing Community Engagement; Achieving Excellence Through Equity and Diversity; Investing in Our People; and Advancing Transformational Education. Murphy Library has programs and activities that can be linked to one or more of these pillars. Here are just a few examples of what Murphy Library is doing to help the university meet these goals: • The Art in the Mug program, which organizes exhibits and displays from students and faculty/staff, often on social justice themes such as the recent Fashion Week posters or last year’s Search for Economic Justice. • Engagement, outreach, and instruction programs such as Gaining Ground, now in its third year, where high school seniors explore college-level information literacy, and academic research and writing; and the George Gilkey - Special Collections Research Scholarship, open to any student having done research using materials from Murphy Library Special Collections or Digital Collections. The library is also home to TEDxUWLaCrosse, which broadens minds with its salons and events on a multitude of topics. • Presentations and training for personnel development, including the 2016 group viewing and discussion of the student film “Inclusive Negligence” and this fall’s anti-hate and bias strategies workshop. • Employing in the library administrative offices three UWL First Scholars, a new university retention initiative for students who are low-income and first-generation in a 25-strong cohort. • Supporting the academic success of McNair Scholars. Of course, all students, faculty and staff are welcome to use our reference and research assistance services, where we assist them to identify, find, and evaluate materials. • Continuous efforts to build collections that represent various points of views and various experiences and knowledge, including monograph collections, children’s books collections in the Curriculum Center, and Special Collections. Our digital collections of local rare materials continue to grow, including recent additions like the Leaping La Crosse newsletter and a collection of Cuban refugees photographs, Freedom Flotilla. • Finally, our continuous, equitable, and free access to electronic and print resources, spaces, and technologies narrows the opportunity gap for all. Wishing you the best for the holiday season, -Catherine Lavallée-Welch, Library Director
Al Patton to Retire Al Patton, lead custodian at Murphy Library, will retire at the end of the year. Al has served the state and the university system for 33 years. His first year was at UW Milwaukee, after which he came to UWL and worked in a variety of locations including Cartwright Center, Whitney Center, Main Hall, Residence Life buildings, Recreational Eagle Center, Morris Hall, and finally Murphy Library, where he spent the last 11 years. Al says that his best memory of UWL is the friendliness of the people. In retirement, he plans to take it easy for a month or two and enjoy not getting up at 4:00 a.m. After that, he wants to give back to the community by volunteering, possibly serving Meals on Wheels and being a Salvation Army bell ringer. He looks forward to having more time to hunt and fish and getting fresh air by helping his daughter walk her dogs. Stop by to congratulate Al and wish him a happy retirement at a reception from 1 - 3 p.m. on December 4, in Murphy Library Room 121.
Al when he recieved the Murphy Library Staff Recognition Award in February, 2014.

Changes Throughout Murphy Library Equipment to Check Out The circulation desk now has a phone charger available to be checked out by students, faculty, and staff. The charger has adapters for Apple and Android phones. The desk also has added an external DVD R/W drive available for check out to people whose computers do not have a DVD drive. These are in addition to the equipment already available at the circulation desk such as laptops, Flip video cameras, headphones, digital audio recorders, a graphing calculator, and more.
Floors, Walls, and Ceilings The physical refresh that included new carpets, fresh paint, better lighting, and more visible signage throughout the library has been completed in the basement and second floor. A notable change is the new books area, which has been moved to prominent and easy-to-browse shelves in the main area of the first floor. As the year goes on, work on plumbing and electrical systems is ongoing in the basement, and there will be occasional construction noises related to that. Watch for work to begin during the semester break as Room 270 is converted to the new curriculum center.

Information Databases Academic Search Ultimate replaces Academic Search Complete, offering a much larger base of articles and other academic resources. New Oxford Shakespeare Online is a new subscription that includes the complete text of all Shakespeare’s works with both the Modern Critical and Critical Reference Editions. It also includes the Authorship Companion, containing essays on questions of authorship and chronology. Nexis Uni is an upgrade and replacement for LexisNexis Academic. The new platform offers enhanced searching, more filtering options, more ways to share and save documents, and many more features. Business Premium Collection replaces ABI/Inform. The new collection includes ABI/Inform and several other business information databases: J.P Morgan Research; Entrepreneurship Database; Accounting, Tax & Banking Collection; Asian & European Business Collection; and Business Market Research Collection. Search@UW, which includes the library catalog as well as other UW system libraries, has an updated look, more functionality, and several new or improved features. Search@UW is the main search box on the library home page.
New Reference Desk Location The reference desk is in its new location on the southeast corner of the first floor. Find it near the end of the tall shelves of reference books, directly below the “Research Assistance” sign. While librarians are happy to work with people in person at the desk, they also welcome questions via email, chat, text, or phone. Get more information at the Reference Services page.

From Archives to Stage A researcher’s curiosity, a librarian’s interest, and a theater professor’s creativity have brought to the stage a remarkable story of two 20th century, boundarybreaking, La Crosse-area women. It started when I was working with a researcher who was examining the family papers of the Katharine Martindale collection. The handwritten letters between sisters Katharine and Henrietta Martindale were fascinating, and I was struck by how they experienced many of the same issues that 21st century women face. An idea for a play was born, and UWL Theatre Arts Professor Beth Cherne and I began a unique collaboration to bring the story to the stage.
Image of a letter from the The Katharine Martindale Family Papers, Area Research Center - UWL with UWL students as well as campus and community actors, and we performed a script reading in June of 2017 in the Bentley Wheeler Bed and Breakfast third-floor ballroom. Performing to a full house, with live piano music and visuals from the letters and family photo collection, the audience, many of whom had known Katharine Martindale, learned much about her life that had previously been kept in the depths of the letters. A lively discussion followed the performance, and all agreed that a full-fledged stage performance should be done in the future.
Beth and I began months of letter reading and note taking. The Martindale sisters were very close, and their prolific written communication, which went from 1915 to the 1960’s, reveals themes such as women taking over family businesses, financial troubles, domestic violence, single motherhood, and mental health issues. We used the letters to develop a script. We received - Teri Holford, Engagement & Curriculum a faculty development grant and travelled to Boston Collection Librarian and the Indiana Dunes area to research. We worked

Impact of Library Services on Student Achievement Librarians love to count things: collection size, participants in library instruction sessions, turnstile counts, reference questions, physical item checkout, e-resource usage, and many other things. In today’s world, however, the question is no longer only about size and counts. Now we talk about assessment, value, student impact, achievement, and making a difference. Yet how do we begin to measure the impact library use has on student achievement? Government agencies, administrators, and even students are asking about the relevance of libraries in today’s world. What difference do libraries make in the academic life of today’s students? Most previous research related to these questions has either been based on self-reported student surveys or has simply compared student grades with library use. These studies typically find that students who used library services received higher grades. However, because of all the other variables, a true causal relationship has not been established. With the assistance of the UWL Statistical Consulting Center, we took 2015-2016 data regarding physical item checkout and then used propensity score matching to create pairs of students who were otherwise similar (based on a wide array of demographics) except for library physical item checkout. We then assessed the causal impact these library services had on student learning and achievement. After accounting for demographic factors, the data show that physical item checkout at UWL has a small but highly significant positive effect on semester GPA of .081 for two books checked out. At first glance this may seem too small to have an impact. However, since the effort of checking out two items is so minimal, and because the results were so highly significant, this increase in GPA is important. The impact can be magnified in the 30% of undergraduates who checked out more than four items. While this research shows a relationship between item checkout and GPA, the challenge is to factor for how (and if) students actually use the resources and how that relates to their academic outcomes. Of additional interest is how other library services relate to student success.

The Alternative Truth Project for Banned Books Week Kicking off Banned Books Week 2017, local librarians and actors collaborated to produce a concert reading related to freedom of access to information. The Alternative Truth Project is a theater-based movement in La Crosse that was created in 2016 by community theater professionals. The Alternative Truth Project conducts a monthly, community-generated series of script-readings of chosen plays written on themes of the absurd, resistance, protest, and anything that fits nicely under the recently coined phrase “alternative truth.” I was hoping to get librarians to participate, so I searched for and found a play where the librarian is the unsung hero of the day. Collaborating with Community Engagement Librarian Barry McKnight of The La Crosse Public Library, We organized and performed in the September 2017 Alternative Truth Project.
From Back Left to Right: Director Greg Parmeter, Colton Janz, Susan Fox, Jess Witkins, Sean McDevitt, Allante Walker, Teri Holford, Barry McKnight.
segregation, civil rights, racism, and banned books, it is part courtroom thriller (based on historic factual events) and part love story (created by the playwright). The play brings to light various subjects that are close to any librarian’s heart: censorship, equal access to information, public funding, freedom of speech, support of the profession by professional The chosen play, Alabama Story, is based on true organizations, and what it really means to be a events and was written in 2015 by New York playwright librarian. Kenneth Jones. Taking place in 1959 in Montgomery, Alabama, it is based on the story of State Librarian In addition to the play, librarians conducted other Emily Reed. Played out in a charged atmosphere of activities to support Banned Books Week. UWL’s

Murphy Library held its fifth public read-out, which was outside this year, near the Hoeschler Clock Tower. Participants from campus and the community stopped by to either read from banned books or to listen. Another event was the Banned Books Cabaret, co-hosted by Murphy Library and the La Crosse Public Library. During this event, which filled the theater space at the Pump House, campus and community members were accompanied by live piano music as they performed skits based on banned books.
