  • Building student employability through interdisciplinary collaboration: an Australian Case Study

    • Authors: Serene Lin-Stephens; Josette M. Kubicki; Fiona Jones; Martin J. Whiting; John Uesi; Matthew W. Bulbert (2019)

  • Given that graduate employment is a clear outcome of education success, there is an urgent need to conceptualize course design strategically to maximize students’ chances of employment. In this paper, we present an Australian case study in which we used a structured career information literacy learning approach to build employability in a biological sciences capstone course, through collaboration between the university library, academics, and career service. We report the context, method, measurement, outcomes of collaboration, and roles of contributors in this partnership. This case study lends itself to potential ways of incorporating career information literacy into an academic context.

  • The role of the academic library in supporting LGBTQ students: A survey of librarians and library administrators at LGBTQ-friendly colleges and universities

    • Authors: Lily Todorinova; Maria Ortiz-Myers (2019)

  • This study engages public services librarians and librarians in administrative or managerial positions in a conversation about LGBTQ student needs. Using a sample from the Campus Pride Index’s Best 25 LGBTQ-friendly colleges and universities, the researchers gathered information regarding outreach, collections, facilities, services, and policies for LGBTQ students. The results of this survey suggest that, while there is a great deal of support for LGBTQ students among librarians, the Campus Pride criteria is not entirely being met. There is an unclear delineation between the role of the library in promoting LGBTQ friendliness, and the role of the larger university, which may be related to the uncertain position of the library in the campus environment. However, the empat...

  • Designs of duty: Using exhibits to build partnerships

    • Authors: Beth Heldebrandt; Stacey Knight Davis; J.J. Pionke; Andrew Cougill (2019)

  • Exhibits in academic libraries are drivers for outreach. Many exhibit programs center on national traveling exhibits often because they are well done and already completed. The only input necessary from a host institution is space and a small amount of time to put up the exhibit. Locally made exhibits create a stronger connection to the community, but they are more expensive in terms of time for research and creating the exhibit, and money for printing. The adage “many hands make light work” accurately describes the local exhibit creation process when multiple groups come together. Partnerships between libraries to share exhibit content broaden the Pool of exhibit possibilities and raise awareness of exhibit programs for all partners. In this case, an exhibit at the Univ...

  • Success of reiterative instruction: Looking at faculty-librarian collaboration to improve information literacy in political science education

    • Authors: Marisha Lecea; Maria A. Perez-Stable (2019)

  • The purpose of this case study was to ascertain if college students’ information literacy improves through a faculty-librarian collaboration involving a session of library instruction as part of a regular political science course. The authors conducted two surveys to determine if in-person library instruction increases students’ research abilities. The authors surveyed political science faculty to discover their attitudes toward library research instruction. They also surveyed political science students to gauge their opinions on the value of library instruction and to see if there is a connection between their research proficiencies and instruction by a librarian. Through this case study, the authors found that such instruction does improve information literacy. The res...

  • Where the private meets the public: Results of a survey of library professionals’ observed student use of academic library spaces for prayer

    • Authors: Christina Riehman-Murphy; Emily Mross (2019)

  • Reports of college students using the library for spiritual practices, including prayer and meditation, consist mainly of anecdotal observations, news stories, or press releases about the creation of such spaces within academic libraries. Driven by their own experiences with students using library spaces for prayer, the authors examined how prevalent this was across US academic institutions. Using a large-scale national survey, this study found library professionals observe a wide range of student prayer behavior in a variety of library spaces, regardless of institutional or campus demographics. The results provide academic libraries with evidence to support accommodating students’ spiritual needs in library spaces.

  • Cutting the umbilical cord: patriarchy and the family metaphor in Turgenev's virgin soil

    • Authors: Katya Jordan (2019)

  • In his final novel, Virgin Soil (1877), Turgenev takes up the theme of the particular kind of populism (Narodnichestvo) that swept across the European part of Russia in the 1860s and 70s. Critics on both ends of the political spectrum believed that Virgin Soil failed to truthfully depict the populist movement; however, the novel provides an important cultural commentary that heretofore has been overlooked. Turgenev explores the theme of fractured father-son relationships and masterfully exposes the nature of political dissent in Russia. He conceptualises Russian radical intelligentsia as a natural son of an enlightened patriarch, thus questioning the long-standing tradition of viewing the Russian tsar as a father to his people.

  • Re-framing vulnerability and wound ethics: Colm Tóibín’s the testament of Mary

    • Authors: José M. Yebra (2018)

  • In keeping with the current ethical turn in humanities, this paper analyses Colm Tóibín’s The Testament of Mary as a literary testimony of post-Levinasian relationality. Such relationality – whereby the One and the Other both meet, ‘emasculate’ and give meaning to each other – draws on vulnerability. That is, the novella shows that to be human is to be exposed and vulnerable to the Other. This is not necessarily negative because such exposure relies on the ethics of care that Mary performs particularly with her neighbour Farina, her cousin Mary, Jesus and Lazarus. Indeed, the wounds both men suffer are not only traumatic symptoms, but also relational meeting points. Hence, the article proves that wound ethics (vulnerability being the etymological root of the wound) is recast into in...

  • Problem with no name: ageing and age identity in Wendy Wasserstein’s plays

    • Authors: Yi-chin Shih (2018)

  • This paper relies on a feminist perspective on ageing to analyse Wendy Wasserstein’s plays. The Pulitzer-Prize winner Wendy Wasserstein (1950–2006) is good at dramatising the experience of women, especially their experience of ageing anxiety and ageing crises in their middle age. Their quest for identity is problematised in the paper in order to show the fluidity of identity through the passage of time and to represent human life as a continuity. The paper first studies feminist writings about ageing. It asserts that ageing is socially and culturally constructed, instead of biological in nature, and it also argues that women suffer more from the conspiracy of ageism and sexism.

  • The word and all things in it

    • Authors: Anne Freadman (2018)

  • The paper argues that the study of language in literature springs from the ancient discipline of philology which, far from having disappeared with the advent of modern theory, persists both in its repressions and in its techniques. It makes this argument in three parts, a polemic bearing on the temporality of philology, and two exercises each of which seeks to illustrate two of these techniques.
