A sneak peek of the fun ⁦Steely Library NKU⁩ goodies we’ll be handing out during our Finals Week Stress Relief activities in two weeks, made with pride in our makerspace!

After living in the Cincinnati area for almost 2 years, yesterday was my first visit to UC Libraries ✨ Thank you to everyone who welcomed and showed me around the amazing spaces and collections - Ted Baldwin nimisha bhat is still here and especially ☮️ Amy Koshoffer wants the girls to learn for organizing my visit!

This is a fantastic role for someone to take on a management role in digital scholarship! You'll be growing established OER, makerspace, & repository programs with an opportunity to establish new services. Reach out to Hailley Fargo (search chair) or myself to learn more!

Renewers, I have created a new data collection project focusing on formal leaders' decisions to leave their positions due to low morale. The project includes an opportunity for formal leders to reflect on & share signs/signals to leave. forms.gle/vP2Fn9zx2U3zZE…

'Everywhere that universities need to go, the library is at the heart of,' says @gkraschk from NC State University Libraries. Yes! #DesigningLibraries9

At the Alkek Library makerspace, focusing too much on tech-heavy spaces as the change agents alienated some library workers; rather, frame technology as a tool that helps us meet user needs and campus goals. #DesigningLibraries9

I am greatly enjoying scrolling through Studio X at RCL's dynamic 2022 Annual Report: dslab.digitalscholar.rochester.edu/studioxreport2…. Great job @emilygwynne @moody_meaghan & team! #DesigningLibraries9

Faculty were clamoring for an integrated, interdisciplinary center that supported XR (extended reality). Studio X at RCL was the result, bringing together space, tech, expertise, and community, says @emilygwynne. #DesigningLibraries9

Last panel of the day: Emerging Technologies and Their Impact on the Future of Library Design and Programming. Moderated by @gkraschk NC State University Libraries, featuring @emilygwynne Studio X at RCL, & @rechnita Texas State University. #DesigningLibraries9

Academic libraries have a recruitment & retention problem. Creating appealing policies & workspaces (even w/o budgets for full renos!) should be a top priority for libraries. We're already losing so many people to industry due to salary, toxic culture… #DesigningLibraries9

One panelist reflects on how her teenage boys want to work, comparing them to future employees. They want to be remote when they want to be & co-located when they want to be! They need to be convinced of - and internalize - the value. This is so spot-on. #DesigningLibraries9

Panelist predictions for next ten years of work: more liberal WFH policies, spaces tailored to meet functions of library work, flexibility and fluidity of spaces, bringing “residential quality” w/ warmth & connection to workplace. #DesigningLibraries9
