Academic libraries are cultural institutions with massive resource and operational footprints. By orienting our missions purposefully toward information and economic justice, we have the capacity to reshape the scholarly information landscape while positively impacting the ability of individual learners and researchers to traverse it. This briefing explores the capacity of libraries and allied institutions to leverage individual and collective action to reduce the inextricably linked information and economic inequalities our users face. The session will examine academic library practice through the lenses of information equity and economic justice, highlighting actions libraries and allied organizations can take in pursuit of increased resource parity and greater freedom from the entrenched information-for-profit systems that threaten our own budgets.

In November of 2016, President Haynes issued a call for participation in a Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Task Force (TGNCTF) “in an effort to ensure ongoing support for members of our Trans and Gender Non-Conforming community at Cal State San Marcos.” The TGNCTF was convened in December 2016 as advisory to the President, and by March 17th, 2017 was charged to “Review and make recommendations regarding protocols, programs and services for CSUSM Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Communities to include: Preferred Name Policy Implementation;; Restrooms;; Training;; Housing. Your participation and knowledge will greatly benefit the University and the goals we are working to achieve, which include providing an open, welcoming and safe environment all members of our community.” In response to this charge, the TGNCTF is pleased to provide an overview of the current status of policies, procedures, and actions relevant to trans and gender non-conforming communities at CSUSM, and to provide recommendations to further improve the environment and experience of our trans students, staff, and faculty. We do so from a variety of perspectives, including those of trans- identified and trans-allied task force (TF) members, trans and allied communities at CSUSM, and stakeholders critical to the implementation of these recommendations. Careful consideration was given to federal and state law, as well as best practice guidance from organizations dedicated to trans advocacy.

Advocacy and outreach are essential tools for creating and sustaining successful libraries, and in increasingly resource-strapped environments it is vital for libraries and librarians to effectively communicate our value. Advocacy is a process of identifying and shaping narratives that matter (and make sense) to our user communities, while outreach helps these ideas connect with stakeholders. When we “reframe” our outreach and advocacy narratives we acknowledge that libraries are dynamic, but that our core values of justice, access, and an informed and supported user population remain constant. Making this case can provide the foundation for creative advocacy strategies that help us build strong and lasting institutions.

Presentation at ACRL 2015 in Portland, OR. Abstract: Curriculum mapping builds insight into the sequence of requirements and competencies a learner negotiates while on an academic path. When combined with data visualization, visual curriculum mapping (VCM) provides a holistic view of an entire educational community, highlighting pivotal points at which to introduce information literacy instruction, resources, and research support. This paper presents findings of a large-scale consortial VCM project in 2013-14, exploring anticipated and unanticipated outcomes and offering strategies applicable to other institutions.

In meditation and psychology, “mindfulness” promotes reflective self-awareness, whereas in educational theory metacognition encourages “thinking about thinking” to enhance critical reflection, engagement, and information retention. This interactive presentation investigates mindful and metacognitive approaches to teaching and learning. Learn ideas for incorporating related strategies into the physical/digital classroom.
