5. Parallel Work Assignments are given in the classroom… … with the understanding that the library’s collections and staff will support the students’ work.
9. Collaborative Work Sometimes a cooperative plan evolves into a collaboration. . Engagement level is high for all players . Elements include: a shared purpose intentionality
10. parallel cooperative collaborative sometimes fuzzy boundaries

Interactive but not collaborative in an ongoing sense.
Here we give examples of parallel work: assumed role of librarian limited. GIVE EXAMPLE: librarian gives a ‘general orientation’ session while the professor is away at a conference (or present and relatively silent, introducing then thanking the librarian).
Each of the players does have a list of goals for students, which they share, then set up a session or set of sessions to address the overlapping goals. Faculty member uses the librarian’s expertise to assist accomplishment of his course goals. Librarian uses the opportunity to achieve some of the library’s desired outcomes for all students vis a vis ‘information literacy’. Mutually beneficial (and beneficial for the students). Can involve building a couple of assignments together, which bridges over into the collaborative category as we are presenting that. Example: Education adjunct professor sends students over for a scavenger hunt, using the same assignment for 5 years. Everything has changed in the library so the students aren’t successful. Librarian contacts professor to update the assignment, but the professor won’t agree to change the nature of the assignment. The librarian would like to collaborate on a more meaningful assignment … over time this happens, but not in the first year.

More extensive conversations in which the respective goals of both players for the students merge more tightly. Each player may shift his/her outcomes to some extent in order to accomplish a revised goal which emerged from the conversation. May result in an integrated series of sessions, with mutually designed assignments over the course of a term, team-teaching, working together to evaluate the assignments. May result in a new course, team taught. Mutual risks – mutual rewards – interdependence. EXAMPLES: Caspers/Cornwell’s idea for Poster Sessions for Students in the INQS Free Speech class emerged from an otherwise ‘cooperative’ set of library sessions for NC’s class. RELATIONSHIP BUILDING. Whyte/Marshall have developed a series of integrated assignments over years of working together collaboratively.

Susan: DEEP RELATIONSHIP BUILDING: her background. Examples, personalizing. Earlham. Questions?
Assignment: Annotated Bibliography (see handout). Librarian & instructor collaborated on the design of the assignment, but the instructor collected and graded the assignment results. Session focus is on specialized encyclopedias & periodical databases relevant for the discipline and their topics. Brief reviews of finding books & evaluation strategies. Mention of avoiding plagiarism & citation tools Class “handout” takes the form of this Web page:

In-class exercise and discussion Library Web Page: http://catfiles.linfield.edu/People/Faculty/jcaspers/public/ArtHistory/ Collaborative/assessment enhancement: the assignment was given in class using a bibliography from one of the professor’s required readings and the evaluation was done by students of their own work during a discussion, then handed in with their notes.
