of databases, much less so with books and media.

• In general, everyoneloves the staff (what good taste you have).

• If the library could extend weekend hours, most (60%) chose opening an hour earlier on Sundays (11 a.m. instead of noon).

The library willcontinue to discuss theimplications of yourresponses and

particularly your comments. You asked for“popular books like bestsellers,” saidsometimes you were “unsure about whereeverything is located in the library” andover the years have asked staff at theCirculation Desk for a fax machine.Some things can be fixed immediately. Beginning this fall:

• The library now opens at 11 a.m. on Sunday mornings.

• A printing kiosk has been installed at the library entrance.

• The library will begin subscribing to a popular book subscription service, so there should be a steady supply of “fun” material to read.

• A fax machine is now available.• Also, the library is investigating a

piece of software that will identify exactly where specific books can be located.

You talk, we listen.

To gauge its performance,the library gathers bothinternal and external data.It compares hours,services and resources topeer libraries; checksholdings against core booklists; and analyzes datafrom information literacytutorials, buildingutilization and many morelibrary services.

What matters most,however, is what you say.The response toBlackwell’s firstcomprehensive usersatisfaction and marketingsurvey in spring 2010 was astounding.More than 1,770 persons replied: 1,425undergraduates, 80 graduate students, 88staff and almost half the faculty (151).Clearly, the SU academic community caresabout library resources and services.

We learned some astounding things:• Eighty percent of 1,663

respondents visit the physical library either daily or between one-to-five times a month.

• Most often, students come to use public printers (70%), use library resources (68%), study individually (64%) and study in groups (59%).

• Sixty-five percent of 1,663 respondents (1,081 people) use the library’s Web site either once a day or at least one-to-five times a month; it’s the tool of choice for locating information about the library (92%).

• If the library were to offer workshops, the faculty’s top choices would be advanced Internet searching and advanced database searching. Undergraduates weren’t asinterested in these. Their top choice: citation styles (MLA, APA, etc.).

• When users need help, most (75%) come to a service desk (Circulation, Research Services).

• Eighty-eight percent of users are reasonably happy with the adequacy

UPCOMING EVENTSContinued from page 1

A new high-tech area for group work,studying and teaching is now available to thecampus community on the first floor ofBlackwell Library. Designed for using thelibrary’s wireless Netbook and laptopcomputers, the Mini Lab (BL 142) isequipped with moveable furniture, a dry-erase projection wall, a teaching podium, and smart classroom hardware and software,which allow state-of-the-art presentations.The room can comfortably seat up to 20 people.

The room is designed for three uses:student groups may book the room toprepare and practice their classroompresentations, faculty librarians will schedulelibrary instruction sessions for small groups ofstudents and, when not being used for these

New Mini Lab for Multi-Purpose UseStephen Ford, Information Literacy Librarian

two purposes, the room will provideadditional study space.

Previously, student groups looking for aplace to prepare and practice classroompresentations could only seek a quiet cornerof the library and use a single computer. Thenew presentation room provides a moreprivate, comfortable and spacious location topractice and prepare. With faculty librariansconducting library instruction sessions forsmaller classes in the new room, there arealso fewer disruptions for students who preferto work in the second floor classroom, whichdoubles as a campus computer lab.

To reserve the Mini Lab for your group topractice a presentation, contact a librarian orstop by the Research Help Desk.

Recently, I had a conversation with afriend who believes that libraries areslowly dying out. Her argument is thatlibraries will become obsolete astechnology progresses, citing theInternet and the e-book as the forcesthat will make libraries extinct. Itoccurred to me, though, that her beliefis perhaps the opposite of the truth:libraries may actually become moreuseful as technology progresses.Libraries are currently not only a placeto find books and periodicals, but alsoa centralized source of newinformation technologies. Over the summer, we have been

updating our resources to provide youwith better access to information. Forstarters, we have swapped 23 laptopswith brand new replacements. Need toget that paper done in a quiet area orwork on a group project in a studyroom? These laptops will run moresmoothly and quickly than ever before.Do you need to surf the Web for someresearch or e-mail? Try one of ourNetbooks. They are portable, compactand easy to use. We have alsoreplaced most of our desktopcomputers, so if you need a bit more

computing power, you can count onthem to deliver. Additionally, we are improving our

printing capabilities. We have movedour photocopy center closer theCirculation Desk to provide fasterservice and to make way for a newmultimedia classroom, the Mini Lab.Each of our copiers is a brand newXerox machine with more possibilitiesthan ever for processing yourdocuments. Near the photocopiers areour scanners, offering anenvironmentally friendly option for yourcopying needs. Recently, we have alsoinstalled a dedicated print kiosk nearthe entrance of the library, so when youare running late and a paper is due,you can zip in and out quickly.While we are planning on keeping

our book stacks for the foreseeablefuture, we are constantly searching forways to make information moreaccessible. Our commitment toproviding you with a rewarding libraryexperience means that we will allowtechnology to transform our resources,not make them obsolete.

Scan Pro 2000 Is HereGaylord Robb, Research/Instructional Services Librarian

One of the latest additions to BlackwellLibrary is a new microform machine, theScan Pro 2000. This new state-of-the-artmachine enables the user to view, scan andprint not only standard microfiche and filmbut also ultrafiche (very high reduction ratio)and opaque micro cards as well.

Scan Pro makes it easier than ever to usemore than 750,000 library resources,including books, periodicals and researchcollections that are in microform. Themachine’s ultrafiche and micro cardcapability makes available previouslyinaccessible segments of our collectionincluding the Library of AmericanCivilization (LAC) collection on ultraficheand our historical micro card collection.

Another plus is that the icon-driven menuon the Scan Pro 2000 makes it more intuitiveto use than earlier machines. The softwareprovides many functions for manipulatingimages. In some instances, users can producea digital document that is actually sharperand clearer than the original.

If you would like to use this new machine,please stop by the Research Help Desk andask for assistance.

Together We CanMou Chakraborty, Director of Public Service

In 2005, the American Library Association(ALA) Council established the ALA Policy onInclusion and Mutual Respect “to promotethe mutual professional interests of librariansand other library workers.” This principlewas upheld at Blackwell Library inNovember 2009 when I invited SharonPayne, Head of Circulation, to join me attwo conferences. At the Statewide Circulation

Conference in Baltimore, MD, Sharonassisted me in the presentation “Wiki-ingalong in the Access Services.” Then at theAccess Services Conference in Atlanta,Sharon and I co-presented “Human Touch �The Only Stability in the Ever-Changing‘iWorld’: Cherishing Customer Service.”Sharon, very enthusiastic about the sessions,brought back several ideas that were

implemented in the Access ServicesDepartment. Later we collaborated to offeran in-house training session on customerservice. The workshop, based on the film Give ’Em The Pickle, focused on “going theextra mile” to provide excellent customerservice. The workshop, held in January,included all staff and student assistants whowork in public services.

Tim Lynch was chosen as thewinner. Tim has worked in AccessServices, both as a shelver and anassistant at the Circulation Desk, for

Leisure Reading Takes a Leap Leigh Ann DePope, Serials/Electronic Services Librarian

While the Leisure Reading Collectionhas always featured contemporary,student-centered titles, we havediscovered that bestsellers areactually what students and staff arereading and suggesting for thecollection. This discovery wasreinforced by the feedback wereceived from the 2010 Library UserSatisfaction Survey. Armed with the survey information,

the Leisure Reading Committeeinvestigated ways to update thecollection and enhance its appeal.Their investigation led them to alease plan from Brodart, a well-established library vendor. This plan,popular with public libraries, is usedby many academic libraries to provideleisure reading materials. It allows SUto select the latest popular titles andkeep them only as long as they are ofinterest to patrons. Titles can berotated on a monthly basis at a fixed cost.

This fall the library is also changingthe borrowing rules for the LeisureReading Collection. Check out willbe limited to four weeks and to SUborrowers only. The committee willcontinue to add titles to the Leisure Reading Collection based onsuggestions or through donations,using the lease plan as anenhancement. Leisure Reading Collection books

are shelved in the same area as thenewspapers and popular magazines.You are invited to stop by andchoose entertaining books for yourenjoyment.
