Instant Motivation: The Surprising Truth Behind What Really Drives Top Performance     

Katherine A. Tear 《Performance Improvement》2015,54(8):44-47

According to author Chantal Burns, Instant Motivation: The Surprising Truth Behind What Really Drives Top Performance is not a self‐help book or a how‐to book, but a book that examines the internal factors that affect our ability to perform at our highest level. It is about finding our personal motivation from within, regardless of outside factors, and maintaining clear and creative thinking throughout. Instant Motivation (2014; 224 pages; ISBN‐13:978‐1292065731; paperback $17.88, Amazon.com e‐book $9.99) is published by FT Press.  相似文献

Library Space: Assessment and Planning through a Space Utilization Study     

Katherine A. Prentice  Erica K. Argyropoulos 《Medical reference services quarterly》2018,37(2):132-141

The objective of this article is to describe the recent space and furniture utilization study conducted through direct observation at the small, academic-centered Schusterman Library. Student workers from the library’s reference desk monitored two semesters of use and went on to observe a third semester after electrical power upgrades were installed. Extensive use details were collected about where library patrons sat during which parts of the day, and certain areas of the library were ultimately identified as much more active than others. Overall, the information gathered proved useful to library planning and will be valuable to future space initiatives. This article further demonstrates feasible means for any library to implement a similar study with minimal resources.  相似文献

Body Politics: Coverage of Health Topics and Policy in U.S. Feminist Magazines     

Joy Michelle Jenkins  Erika Katherine Johnson 《Mass Communication and Society》2017,20(2):260-280

This study considered health coverage in 3 highly circulated U.S. feminist magazines: Ms., Bitch, and Bust. The authors used critical discourse analysis to examine 80 print and online articles for representations of liberal, social, radical, and postfeminist feminist ideologies in health coverage; the rhetorical strategies publications used for health content and how they compare with mainstream women’s magazines; and their emphasis on health policy and public health initiatives. The findings suggested that the magazines relied on discursive approaches resembling those of mainstream magazines when covering health, such as prioritizing personal health issues and individualized responses. However, through distinctive feminist lenses, they also performed better than mainstream women’s magazines in presenting health issues, representing a broader range of concerns affecting women, addressing people from diverse communities, and suggesting opportunities for collective response.  相似文献   

Kicking ASSessment: Using Information Fluency Assessment to Expand Librarian Roles,Engage in High-Impact Practices,and Create Sustained Contact with Online Learners     

Katherine Adams  Paula Wiley 《Journal of Library & Information Services in Distance Learning》2017,11(1-2):226-236

ABSTRACT

Iowa Wesleyan University (IW) has historically struggled with both assessment and supporting online students. Newly-appointed librarians and an impending re-accreditation visit prompted an increase in involvement and presence with assessment. In an attempt to expand the library's influence on campus, librarians took on a nontraditional role in the institutional implementation of LiveText, an assessment software. Librarians at IW have played an active and integral role in not only the initial roll-out of this software, but also in training and continuing support for students and faculty. Because of its importance to institutional learning outcomes, information fluency (IF) is being recognized as a high-impact practice across disciplines, and based on the results of this case study, librarians will pursue the creation of a required online IF course for online learners.  相似文献

Dialogic Approaches to Strategic Planning in Academic Libraries: An Appreciative Inquiry Case Study at Oviatt Library     

Wanda V. Dole  Katherine Dabbour 《图书馆管理杂志》2017,57(4):468-480

This article provides an overview of the status of strategic planning in academic libraries. It discusses the trend towards “dialogic” (e.g. Appreciative Inquiry) rather than “diagnostic” (e.g. SWOT) approaches to strategic planning—a trend aligned with a dialogic movement in organization development. The authors explain the difference between dialogic and diagnostic methods and what made Appreciative Inquiry (AI) a good choice for strategic planning at Oviatt Library, California State University, Northridge (CSUN). In the final section, the authors present a case study of the Oviatt Library project with information about the planning process including staffing for the project. Although focused on academic libraries, the information about strategic planning frameworks and processes is applicable to any type of library.  相似文献
