Scoping Review Data and Documentation
No full textThis dataset includes data and documentation developed for a scoping review. The principal objective was to review available research on the scope and efficacy of technology-delivered interventions (TDI) for treating substance use (SU) in military-affiliated (MA) populations. This scoping review found that TDI has efficacy in reducing substance use in military-affiliated populations. There is a significant variety in the characteristics and components of TDI currently in use. The body of research is small, so further research is needed to solidify the validity of findings

Queering the South: Highlighting the unique history of LGBTQIA+ rights locally and across the south
No full textIn honor of Austin’s annual celebration of Pride in August, this post and the accompanying display on the 3rd floor of PCL highlights LGBTQIA+ history in Austin and across the southern United States. These display materials serve to provide context for this event and share historical experiences and information about the LGBTQIA+ community focusing as much as possible on intersectional marginalized identities.
This display was developed by iSchool Pride, a student group out of UT’s School of Information, in collaboration with UT Libraries staff.UT Librarie
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Lifestyle Factors that Affect Cardiovascular Health
No full textOne of the keys to having optimal health is adopting a lifestyle of beneficial habits that are formed over time. Four significant lifestyle factors that directly affect the wellbeing of a person are diet, exercise, stress, and sleep. Although each of these are separated into their own category, they work together to help stabilize every person’s life. If they are out of balance, however, they have the potential to cause harmful effects that may lead to health issues. Therefore, it is important to provide education about how these factors influence each individual and how to optimize them for better health

Developing with data: Mapping engagement for greater understanding of library audiences
Get PDFPoster was presented at ACRL 2019: Recasting the Narrative on Thursday, April 11, 2019 in Cleveland, OH.Who hears the stories we tell and how do they respond? In order to build a strong supporter base, a library must know who their supporters are and what motivates them to engage. A data mapping project was conducted to determine patterns in rates of engagement with the library’s email communication. Email engagement data was combined with donor profiles to develop a greater sense of audience and their values in order to develop a targeted and effective communication strategy and identify and address engagement gaps.
Email engagement data was collected for over 23,000 email subscribers between January 2017 and January 2018. This data was then compared against the university’s donor database to gain insights on audience demographics and engagement both with the library and with the larger campus community.
The demographic information collected gave us a better idea of who had expressed interest in hearing from the library. We were able to determine numbers of alumni, faculty, students, and parents as well as which departments they may be associated with. Through email engagement statistics, we could tell what types of stories our supporters were most interested in and how language, layout, and timing impacted their levels of engagement with that content.
The donor data further enhanced our understanding of our audience’s values by giving us information on which university departments our supporters donated to aside from the library. This data told us a powerful story about what our audience cares about and how the library can tailor our messages to their values and interests. A set of guidelines and recommendations was developed from the analyzed data, which will continue to inform and guide the development of email content and sending strategies in the future.
This project models a way in which libraries can better understand their unique supporter base and develop more effective communication strategies designed to increase supporter involvement and engage potential donors.UT Librarie
