Meeting notes

  • Don't Hit Delete
    • SCSST will be featured in August. Bullet points will highlight our work with liaisons, IR, and our upcoming 2018-2019 events. Will also mention that Maria will be our fall intern.
  • Schol Comm Intern
    • Maria Aghazarian starts next Tuesday (8/7)! Annie will take her around the library and will introduce her to the rest of the schol comm team.
  • Training for Staff Related to Schol Comm Skill Areas
    • Workshop scheduled for Research Impact to be led by Kristina and Rachel on August 21st @ 11:00 am.
    • Do we need workshops for all skill areas? Should we do some discussion sessions instead (such "community of practice around open education")?
    • In terms of staff education related to schol comm and info lit for undergrads, should we wait until the Learning and Student Success is formed? Consensus is yes.
    • Open Education Discussion
      • Open education seems to be an area many liaisons are interested in focusing on.
      • Instead of workshop, we will plan a discussion that involves people with a range of experiences related to open education. These folks will discuss their experiences on the ground at Temple, as well as state, national, and international issues related to open education.
      • Potential folks to be involved: Steven, Urooj, Kristina, Rebecca, Annie, other liasions who have worked with faculty on TAP proposals?
      • Annie will ask Steven and Urooj about availability in November
    • Spring 2019
      • Work with Learning and Student Success team to develop an event for staff related to integrating scholarly communication with information literacy
    • External Resources for Staff Doc
  • Schol Comm Skills in Instruction team goal
    • We have not made much progress with this goal!
    • Stephanie Roth (Unlicensed) will create a Google doc: Quick things a librarian can take and drop into instruction without a lot of work (on topics such as fair use, predatory publishing). We will all add to it.
    • Once Learning and Student Success team is formed, we will work with them to develop the doc and finalize
  • Institutional Repository
    • Discussion about what are next best steps re: policies and procedures documents? Decision: gather more info from other libraries.

    • Annie Johnson (Unlicensed) will let Gretchen know and invite the rest of the RDSSST.
    • Goal is once we talk to a few other schools we can finalize the first three sections of our policy documents (purpose, content, user communities). Then we can share with LTD and others.
