    Materials and Materiality: Swimming the tides of technology in an art and design library: from AMICO to Delicious to YouTube
    (Facet Publishing, 2010) Staum, Sonja
    Academic art and design libraries generally exist to serve the teaching mission of the art school or academic unit to which that library is tied. As faculty become more engaged with digital technologies, as more digital resources become available for license, and as student and faculty knowledge and comfort with e-resources and application grows, there will be greater demand for e-content. The library must be prepared to provide related access and content. This transformation of service across disciplines, combined with significant format changes to collections, is changing the culture of the art information professional’s work environment, presenting new challenges to our previously-held, clearly-defined roles, and blurring long-standing resource allocation models and resource development activities within our academic institutions.

    See how a small group of librarians gathered partners across campus to conduct an environmental scan of their instructional program. We took a long workbook (Analyzing Your Instruction Environment, published by ACRL) and transformed a large checklist of data into surveys, focus groups and reports while bringing in stakeholders and disseminating results.

    Trends for Academic Art Libraries: The Herron Art Library -- Driving Digital Content
    (H.W. Wilson Company, 2007) Staum, Sonja
    Traditionally, as librarians in academic art libraries our roles have been to collect, organize, and provide access to art-related information in print and non-print formats such as books, journals, picture files, 35 mm slides, and video. Our content development efforts were focused towards developing and managing collections of content that met the research and instruction needs of our library’s primary clientele, the faculty and students. Today’s rapid changes imposed upon our profession by technology and higher education are pushing art librarians and libraries into new and varied roles that expand our everyday jobs and embrace new responsibilities related to scholarly communication, preservation and stewardship of digital collections.
