Item The Impact of Electronic Resources on Serial Cancellations and Remote Storage Decisions in Academic Research Libraries(Graduate School of Library and Information Science. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2000) Jaguszewski, Janice M.; Probst, Laura K.In the past, serial cancellations and storage decisions focused primarily on print resources. With the addition of electronic resources, librarians in large research institutions must now manage an integrated collection consisting of both print and electronic formats. This article explores the impact that electronic resources have on such deaccession decisions. The authors identify criteria for these decisions and, within this framework, discuss the issues that arise because of the complex nature of electronic resources.Item Usage Statistics for Electronic Journals: An Analysis of Local and Vendor Counts(Routledge, 2003) Stemper, James A.; Jaguszewski, Janice M.Vendor-supplied e-resource statistics are often unavailable, unreliable, or not comparable across vendors. This study compared locally-generated usage statistics to those supplied by four major publishers, and analyzed the resulting patterns of use. The additional information provided by vendor statistics was assessed to see how it might be utilized selectively to provide a better understanding of the importance of individual titles. The local statistics for all titles provided by the four publishers were then compared. A strong similarity between the two datasets was found, supporting the position that local statistics are a viable alternative to vendor statistics. Another finding was that the 80/20 rule is closer to 80/30 in the online environment. Some of the issues for subject librarians and electronic resources librarians are discussed.Item IT Competence for all: Propel your staff to new heights(Haworth, 2008) Eels, Linda L.; Jaguszewski, Janice M.In 2005, the University of Minnesota Libraries charged a task force with the development of a list of core information technology (IT) skills that could be expected of all 300 staff, from technical services to reference services to stacks maintenance. Once this list was developed, the task force designed and administered an online self-assessment survey to identify gaps and patterns in staff computer skills. Both the development of the core competencies and the administration of the assessment are discussed. Also provided are recommendations for next steps, including using assessment reports and data gathered in the process to develop a training and professional development curriculum focused on the specific identified training needs of staff.Item IT competence for all: Propel your staff to new heights(Haworth Press, 2008-12) Eells, Linda L.; Jaguszewski, Janice M.In 2005, the University of Minnesota Libraries charged a task force with the development of a list of core information technology (IT) skills that could be expected of all 300 staff, from technical services to reference services to stacks maintenance.

The purpose of the assessment was to document the liaisons' current knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) and map them against the KSAs that are expected to be needed in the future. The gaps were then analyzed to identify professional development opportunities for current staff as well as traits to seek when considering future hires.Item Preparing Our Librarians for the Future OR Whatever Happened to Those KSA Survey Results?(2010-11) Crowe, Stephanie H.; Jaguszewski, Janice M.Item New Roles for New Times: Transforming Liaison Roles in Research Libraries(Association of Research Libraries, 2013-08) Jaguszewski, Janice; Williams, KarenThrough interviews with administrators at five ARL libraries (Duke University, University of Guelph, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, North Carolina State University, and Purdue University), and the authors’ own extensive experience in research libraries, this report identifies six trends in the development of new roles for library liaisons, noting that user engagement is a driving factor in identifying which services are, or should be, offered by research libraries. The overarching framework for all changes is an increasing focus on what users do (research, teaching, and learning) rather than on what librarians do (collections, reference, library instruction). The authors also began to question the liaison model as the overarching structure, noting the limitations to individual expertise. There appears to be a trend toward a hybrid model, where liaisons pair their expertise with that of functional specialists, both within and outside of libraries. In addition, an ALA-accredited master’s degree in library science is no longer strictly required. Increasingly, liaisons and functional specialists present a wide range of educational backgrounds and advanced degrees that offer 5 diverse perspectives and broader skill sets, further challenging the concept of who and what a librarian or liaison is.Item Space as a Service: Advancing the Library’s Mission through Campus Collaboration within Library Spaces(2015-10) Jaguszewski, Janice M; Aspinall, Erinn E; McGuire, Lisa A.; Theis-Mahon, Nicole; Hendrickson, Lois; Sayre, Franklin DItem Collaboration is Key: Advancing the Academic Health Sciences Library's Mission Through Campus Partnerships Within Library Spaces(Chandos Publishing, 2019) Jaguszewski, Janice M.; McGuire, Lisa A.Academic health sciences libraries are actively engaged with their health professions faculty and administrators to advance teaching, learning, and research. This chapter offers strategies for success when cultivating and working with partners, using the Health Sciences Libraries partnership model and resulting in a new suite of space-enabled services (e.g. Faculty Commons, Virtual & Augmented Reality Studio, 1:Button Studio, Visualization Lab, Wangensteen Historical Library, and Innovation Space). It also discusses impact and lessons learned.
