    Assessing Digital Humanities Tools: Use of Scalar at a Research University

    No full text
    As librarians increasingly support digital publication platforms, they must also understand the user experience of these tools. This case study assesses use of Scalar, a digital humanities publishing platform for media-rich projects, at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign. Based on a survey, interviews, and content analysis, the study highlights the platform’s usability, its functionality, and its successes and failures in meeting user expectations. The media upload process, image annotation, and aesthetics factored into user issues. Writing pedagogy also emerged as an important consideration. Results suggest lessons for digital literacy instruction, as well as how and when Scalar might serve patrons’ publishing needs.Submitted by Daniel Tracy ([email protected]) on 2016-02-20T16:38:38Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Tracy_DHToolsScalar_portal.pdf: 454585 bytes, checksum: dab10521932f726598f33c7914c56ed3 (MD5)Made available in DSpace on 2016-02-20T16:38:38Z (GMT).

    LIS Graduate Students as Library Users: a Survey Study

    No full text
    Library and information science (LIS) students at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, were surveyed to ascertain their patterns of library use and their perceptions of the value of various library services. The data reveals similarities and differences to previously studied general graduate student populations, at both Illinois and other universities. The analysis highlights differences between distance and on-campus students, an important division in LIS professional education. Beyond the utility of the findings for understanding the information needs and behaviors of the target population, the study sheds light on pre-professional LIS students’ use of libraries and their attitudes towards services they are being trained to provide.Submitted by Daniel Tracy ([email protected]) on 2014-08-01T01:20:01Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Tracy Searing LIS Students Library Use.pdf: 3666774 bytes, checksum: ded73cebbc25747f5ce0061d6ecc7e14 (MD5)Made available in DSpace on 2014-08-01T01:20:01Z (GMT).
