The Next Generation Online Public Access Catalog in Academic Libraries
Get PDF"Make it more like Google" is a refrain that is often heard by students at academic libraries when asked how library catalogs can be improved. According to the annual Beloit College Mindset list for the class of 2010, the word Google has always been a verb. It is not surprising students today turn to the web when conducting research as it is what they are familiar with and what they know. How can academic libraries handle the challenge of changing user expectations? Can open source software be used to meet this challenge? Can library vendors be convinced that systems need to be changed now? This paper will look at the next generation’s expectations of the academic library online public access catalog and possible solutions
Beloit College Study Abroad students\u27 outcomes : a closer look at reenty programming and students\u27 perceptions of their learning
No full textStudy abroad is an opportunity for students looking to gain skills in an increasingly global world. As professionals we constantly talk about sending more students abroad because students are able to gain cross-cultural competencies. However, by increasing numbers of students going abroad, are we helping foster this cross-cultural competency that is so vaguely defined? As professionals we need to scrutinize what we are already doing with our students and make sure that upon their return they are able to understand and utilize their experience to the fullest. This research explores reentry program participation and how much students perceived they have learned 10 months after their return from abroad. It examines how Beloit College fosters continuous learning upon return from studying abroad, how much students take advantage of these opportunities, and the initiatives students take on as continuous learners. Fourteen students who studied abroad on Beloit-sponsored and non-Beloit-sponsored programs to various countries for one semester responded to two surveys. Nine members of Beloit College\u27s faculty were interviewed to determine their role in reentry programs, in encouraging students to share their experiences in class, and in their perceptions of how students change and grow abroad. The findings indicate that students\u27 perceptions changed during the 10 month period, though students were not using the Beloit College structure reentry programs. Nevertheless, students are participating in a range of self-structured reentry activities that help them to continue to learn, process, and reflect on their experiences. In addition, faculty has a potentially powerful role in students\u27 continued learning, encouraging them to utilize their new skills and knowledge gained from abroad
