Описание:

Staying on top of professional trends in academic library research can help turn any librarian into an expert researcher. This practitioner's guide arms librarians with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively conduct research to enhance professional practice and perform successful inquiries. It discusses current practices of academic librarians; details the process of successfully planning, implementing, and publishing a study; and provides professional and personal development to improve research competency.

Written by professionals at the upper echelon of their field, Enhancing Library and Information Research Skills comprises seven chapters that break down the research process and focus on individual steps in performing effective research. The book teaches academic librarians how to develop a research question based on a practical problem, determine the scope and objectives of a study, and select proper research design and methods. Readers will also understand how to identify resources to support the study, set a timeline for data collection and data analysis, write a dissertation, and identify the proper venue for publication/presentation.

Описание: Qualitative research has its origins in logical, rational and philosophical analysis. The practice of qualitative research is as old as philosophy itself. LIS is an evolving discipline, and therefore still is in the process of building a strong research foundation for itself. Library and information science is becoming progressively important, simply because of the ever increasing information organisation of society. The initiation of information technology (IT) has changed the global prospects forever and created a massive change in the way in which people attain information and knowledge. Though libraries are changing with these times, there will be tremendous pressure on librarians and information scientists to cater to the needs of people and organisations in a most effective and efficient way. To do that takes a better understanding of many information phenomena not currently well understood, and qualitative research can play an important role in furthering that understanding. This book emphasises on qualitative research methodologies in the field of library and information management. The objective of this book is to provide insight about the use of qualitative research in library and information science (LIS) literature. The book also provides an account of the extent to which different qualitative methods have been used or are in use within LIS research. The book landscapes many case studies and examples, and compromises a widespread guidebook of practice designed for practitioners an LIS professionals. Over the past two decades, theorists have noted an increase in the use of qualitative research methods within library and information science. The qualitative analysis will point to possible trends within LIS studies that use qualitative methods, such as dominant data collection or data analysis methods. Together, these results will help to provide a better understanding of the current face of LIS research.

Описание: Faced with increased budget cuts, libraries must continue to advance their services through new technologies and practices in order to keep pace with the rapid changes society is currently facing. The once traditional in-person services offered can no longer be the only option, and to keep themselves afloat, libraries must offer more in terms of digital services. The convenience of offering mobile and digital services brings a new wave of accessibility to libraries and a new question on just how much libraries will need to change to meet the newfound needs of its patrons. Beyond offering these digital services, libraries are incorporating other types of technology in multifaceted ways such as utilizing artificial intelligence practices, social media, and big data management. Moreover, libraries are increasingly looking for ways to partner and collaborate with the community, faculty, students, and other libraries in order to keep abreast of the best practices and needs of their users.

The Research Anthology on Collaboration, Digital Services, and Resource Management for the Sustainability of Libraries explores emerging strategies and technologies that are redefining the role of the library within communities and academia. This reference book covers extensive ground on all the ways libraries have shifted to manage their resources, digitalize their services, and market themselves within the new technological revolution. These continued shifts for libraries come with benefits, challenges, and future projections that are critical for discussion as libraries continue to strive to remain updated and relevant in times of change. This book is ideal for librarians, archivists, collection managers, IT specialists, electronic resource librarians, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students who are interested in the current state of libraries and how they are transforming to fit modern needs.
