Creighton University is not just its buildings or its long and rich traditions. It is rather the faculty, staff, and students that work and study and walk the hallowed halls. In the same way the Health Sciences Library is not just a building but it is the 21 permanent, full-time professionals that create a pathway to the rich and increasingly overwhelming amount of information. It is the staff who find, interpret, and disseminate that information, that add quality to the scholarly output of the faculty, staff and students. It is the staff that unlock the doors to the information that drives good research, patient care, and education. As we move into a new academic year we face many uncertainties and challenges, but mostly the staff and I see many opportunities. New academic leadership has taken control of the helm at CU and expectations for showing results, measuring outcomes and eliminating duplication are high. From this office I see several major challenges in the coming year, which in turn will open opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and achievement. My remarks are inspired by a Blog post dated July 5, 2013 and accessed July 10, 2013. Three Challenges: Engaging, rightscaling,and innovating” was posted by Lorcan Dempsey, Vice President, OCLC Research and Chief Strategist. It can be found at http://orweblog.oclc.org/archives/002213.html.

Those challenges for Creighton University Health Sciences Library are: 1. We must engage our users. Long gone are the days where we waited in the library

building to serve our clients. Our clients, the faculty, staff, and students of Creighton University come to the library for reasons other than to access a print bound collection. We have created and licensed access to an incredibly rich collection of “virtual” information (information available anytime/anywhere). So, our challenge is to create and build our services around our clients’ work habits. We must provide more space for collaboration. Our space for the collection is shrinking. We must create and manage the scholarly output of our researchers. We must assure easy access to information for our clinicians.

2. Secondly, for many years the quality of a library was measured by the size of its collection and its physical facility. Essentially libraries were built for an institution. They often times were edifices reflecting the prestige of the institution. Librarians have always provided services for the faculty, staff, and students. In addition, we must now increasingly look to collaborate. The need for local infrastructure becomes more important but its use changes dramatically. The opportunity to re-purpose library space increases in this environment. Done in a careful, thoughtful, strategic way, this use of library space could be a huge cost savings and a more efficient way of managing space for Creighton University. For example, we offered the space, which housed the Learning Resources Center to the four health sciences schools for four small group classrooms. Those classrooms are scheduled to be completed next academic year. The need for each library at Creighton to engage with researchers, to foster author relations, and to maintain individual identity is critical and unique to each library. The issue becomes one

of building services and physical structure in a collaborative way. Newer services such analytics, bibliometrics, and data curation are emerging and must be addressed.

3. Thirdly, the library is not a fixed set of services. Rather, it is an organization which easily reconfigures its environment and expectations, which is nimble and able to change direction when that is warranted. A shift to innovation has been ongoing and will continue unabated. So, while overall mission and values stay the same, greater integration of learning and research through greater curriculum support, data curation, scholarly publishing and/or support for grant applications becomes the norm. Reorganization and developing new staff skills become necessary. Coping with change requires an enterprising orientation. In order to accomplish our goals we must find new ways of collaborating and we must resurrect old, tried and true ways of collaboration within the organization. Examples of this include the leadership HSL has taken in managing an interdisciplinary simulation lab and with the creation of a campus-wide institutional repository. But, make no mistake, information is costly and continues to increase in price. The institution must decide how much it wants to invest in the information infrastructure.

4. And, finally, remember when you’ve seen one library you’ve seen one library. Each library is different and unique. Yes, there are commonalities among all libraries, primarily those focused on customer services. But, ultimately, each library is a unique entity. We accomplished many things in Academic Year 12-13. Following are just some of the

highlights. We

underwent a major reorganization, primarily motivated by putting like functions together in order to better serve our customers (See Organizational Chart for details);

made an offer of space to the four health sciences schools in order to build four small group classrooms;

made a proposal to extend Library services and resources to the Alegent Creighton Health facilities (proposal is pending);

worked closely with course/component directors to integrate information management skills into the curriculum;

expanded the Creighton Digital Repository to include research data from university researchers;

Information Services Richard Jizba

Journals, Books, and Bundled/Composite Packages

We have become a digital library. Nearly 100% of our journals, reference works, and point-of-care resources are now web-based; we have access to over 17,500 health sciences and biomedical e-books; and our digital film/video collection includes at least 3,000 items.

As we monitor the use of our e-journal collection, we find that the average use per title is very good and that almost every title receives some use. While some of this use may be opportunistic rather than intentional, it never-the-less supports the serendipitous nature of scholarly exploration for both our students and our faculty. We are beginning to see a similar phenomenon with e-book collections.

Perhaps the most amazing aspect of all is that we manage all of these resources with a core staff of four. Although we handle very few physical items, much of the print workflow remains and is in some instances more complicated. Even digital, web-based materials must be ordered, cataloged and maintained. Maintenance and monitoring take up the bulk of our work load. We must ensure that we can access what we purchase, and trouble-shoot access problems when they occur. We must monitor the usage of our resources, adding and dropping titles as use evolves.

Negotiating licenses, determining access rights, and establishing long-term cost models are tasks which have come to the fore in the world of digital resources. This year, with the merger of Alegent-Creighton Health, these negotiations with publishers has become especially complicated. Interlibrary Loan

We continue to be net lender to other libraries, sending to others more than ten times what we receive. We fill almost 25 requests daily from other libraries; in contrast, we request less than 2 items for our own users. Our status as a prominent net lender is another indication of the strength of our e-journal collection and support it provides for the University’s educational and research endeavors.

It should be noted that we receive just over 40 requests each day, which means that we are able to fill just over half of them. Of the requests that we turn away, roughly half are due to increasing embargo periods that have been placed on the titles in some of our large ejounal subscription packages. These may represent articles that are simply unavailable to many students and researchers at other institutions unless they are willing to pay premium prices for the articles. If it weren’t for our comprehensive e-journal packages, our faculty and students would face similar challenges trying to obtain current research and scholarly information. CDR The Creighton Digital Repository

The scholarly output of modern universities is now largely digital and Creighton is no exception. The University produces a rich stream of scholarly information which must be

09/20/13 7

Page 9: HEALTH SCIENCES LIBRARY - Creighton University · Those challenges for Creighton University Health Sciences Library are: 1. We must engage our users. Long gone are the days where

captured, archived and shared. To meet this need, in 2009 the Health Sciences Library took the lead in developing the Creighton Digital Repository (CDR). Now the CDR is well established and supported by all three libraries. It continues to grow in both size and complexity with over 32,000 items in more than 175 collections.

The Theses and Dissertations collection is but one example of how the CDR has succeeded by presenting Creighton’s graduate students’ research to the world-wide scholarly community. This collection contains over 150 works in digital format (pdf). It has accounted for 26,000 file downloads (pdf views), which is an average of over 200 views per title for those works not under an embargo. The top five works alone have received over 10,000 downloads. Not only does the CDR provide valuable recognition for our graduate students, but it also highlights and promotes our graduate programs.

The CDR is, however, much more than a repository of scholarly work. It serves equally well as a repository for administrative and curricular documents and for external or ‘non-University’ collections as well. The Law Librarians have worked with us to produce a very large database of over 13,000 Nebraska Supreme Court and District Court briefs. The Office of Medical Education continues to maintain a restricted collection of lecture presentations and related documents. In the HSL we use the CDR to eliminate paper files of invoices, newsletters, search request forms, and for digitizing selected journal back files. Goals for the coming year Collection management:

Implement the new EBSCO statistics module for monitoring and managing our e-journal subscriptions.

Evaluate the link checking workflow for e-journals to determine how we can make it more efficient.

Develop procedures for monitoring e-book use.

Continue to assess the implications of the Alegent-Creighton Health partnership on our e-resources and work with the publishers to establish proper pricing and access privileges.

Interlibrary Loan / Document Delivery

Continue to evaluate options for reducing the number of requests we reject because of embargo / license restrictions

Promptly implement the new OCLC ILL system (WorldShare) when it is made available in the fall

Creighton Digital Repository

Upgrade to DSpace 3.x

Implement the DuraCloud service for backing up the CDR.

Develop a “Research Data Management & Curation Service” for archiving clinical trials and other research data produced by Creighton Researchers

Learning Resources Center Diana Boone

The 2012-13 academic year was spent continuing our efforts to increase the use of

technology, make library resources and materials available “anytime anywhere”, promote experiential learning, and to make the library a place for students to practice the learning modality of learner self-discovery.

The Learning Resources Center actively supports experiential learning and has over 150 models, simulators, and task trainers available to students, faculty, and staff. The use of simulators, task trainers, and models all continued to increase with use of simulators and task trainers up 11% and use of models up 29% from last year.

Our project for this year was to create instructional videos for the set-up and takedown of the more involved simulators that are owned by the library. Library staff delivered and helped to set up almost half of the simulators and task trainers that were used this past year so we created 18 video tutorials on select simulators in an effort to encourage the use of simulators in the classroom by making them easy to schedule and use—anytime and anywhere. That philosophy was also behind the virtual model project which was completed last year. This was our first full year of having the virtual model files available online and use was modest but encouraging. LRC Goals 2013/14 1. Coordinate with Clinical Education and Simulation Center staff to integrate library personnel

into basic simulation technician roles as well as operations management duties. 2. Explore new ways to present anatomical models for self-directed study: modify and/or

migrate current interface; determine if rotatable image collection should be turned into stereo images to be compatible with virtual reality programs.

3. Digitize important pieces from the History of Medicine artifacts collection.

User Services

John Mitchell

Following the retirement of Pat Meeves, long-time head of the Circulation/Interlibrary

Loan Department, the Library’s Administrative Group implemented a plan which re-organized the library staff and created three departments from the previously existing four. This re-organization produced the User Services Department, largely a merging of the library’s reference and circulation services. This new department houses the following library functions: circulation/reserves, education/distance education, library outreach, reference services, service desk staffing, and the coordination of student workers.

As would be expected, the inaugural year of the User Services Department was very much a year of transition. John Mitchell, a Reference Librarian at the Health Sciences Library for the previous eight years, became the first User Services Department head. Rose Wilson was hired as a Reference Librarian, thus keeping the reference staffing at the same level as prior to the re-organization.

RefWorks, a web-based bibliographic management tool, continues to be one of the more heavily-used resources offered by the library. Its citing utility, Write-N-Cite, underwent a significant revision, with Write-N-Cite 4 being vastly different than its predecessor, Write-N-Cite III. The implementation of Write-N-Cite 4 by the library became urgent due to the university’s adoption of the Kaspersky anti-virus program. Write-N-Cite III and the Kaspersky program are not compatible. Our educational and training efforts eased the transition to Write-N-Cite 4 for our patrons.

The library’s teaching and educational activities remain strong. We continue to offer two elective courses: PHA375 Introduction to Online Information Retrieval (taught by John Mitchell) and IDC 462 Medical Informatics (taught by Jeanne Burke, Education Coordinator). Judi Bergjord (Outreach Librarian) remains as the Instructor of Record and manages a Medical Terminology course offered in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. The successful modification and integration of former PTD375 material into the Critical Inquiry series of courses in the Physical Therapy program continues. Furthermore, User Services staff members are often invited to present on library resources and services in various health sciences classes in addition to participating in a wide variety of orientations.

The Literature Search Service remains an integral part of reference services provided by the library. This service continues to be provided on demand for students, faculty, and staff whose information needs require the expertise of staff to conduct complex literature searches. Patrons may request this service via an online form, emailing the Service Desk, or on a walk-in basis.

With the university’s transition to BlueLine2, the Health Sciences Library has moved to create a presence in this learning management system. The previously noted PHA375 and Medical Terminology courses are offered in BlueLine2; IDC462 will be moved to BlueLine2 by Spring 2014. Through the efforts of Madonna Knudson (Library Specialist), the eReserves are also present in BlueLine2. Additionally, the library is developing a library instructional materials course in BlueLine2. Originated by Richard Jizba (currently Head of Information Services), and

now under the management of Judi Bergjord and Rose Wilson, the course (to be published in 2013-2014) primarily houses library instructional tutorials. Other content is being explored.

Student workers (9 in 2012-2013) and Federal Work Study students (11 in Fall 2012, 10 in Spring 2013) continue to be instrumental in completing key projects at the library. Under the management and guidance of Tim Glick (Evening/Weekend Supervisor), the bound journal shift and monograph inventory were completed; work began on the bound journal inventory and the monograph shift. Student workers also provided valuable assistance at the Service Desk, particularly during evening and weekend hours.

Lastly, in keeping with the university’s mission of Service to Others, our Food for Fines program gathered nearly 300 non-perishable food items. These items were donated to various local area food banks.

The coming year promises to be an exciting and challenging one for the User Services Department. The areas of focus for 2013-2014 will be on utilizing WebEx (the university’s web-conferencing tool) to conduct remote reference sessions and various library instructional sessions, strengthening the Library Liaison program, more fully leveraging the LibGuides resource, continuing to develop a strong presence in BlueLine2, and to promote library resources to Alegent Creighton Health facilities.

Departmental Goals, 2013-14

1. Continue to develop an HSL presence in BlueLine2 (BL2) a. Develop and promote the BL2 Group Course for Library Instructional Materials.

(Currently, this is primarily our tutorial collection.) b. Work with courses utilizing BL2 to include links to HSL website, HSL resources,

and / or the HSL BL2 Group Course for Library Instructional Materials (either in its entirety or to specific modules).

c. Continue to offer PHA375 online. d. Update and move content of Medical Informatics course into BL2 by Spring 2014.

2. Reinvigorate the use of the LibGuides resource –

a. Evaluate and update existing LibGuides. b. Create new LibGuides, as needed.

3. Utilize WebEx for remote reference sessions and various library instructional sessions,

including some of the Lunch & Learn sessions. 4. Jumpstart the HSL’s liaison program, to include –

a. Assessing current liaison assignments and re-organizing assignments, as needed. b. Discussing and developing liaison support strategies with each liaison.

5. With Alegent librarians, promote HSL resources to ACH facilities. 6. Continue to promote and support RefWorks; evaluate RefWorks Flow for possible

licensing. 7. Change EZProxy from current authentication system to Shibboleth. 8. Further develop SharePoint resources used by HSL staff.

National Network of Libraries of Medicine

Monica Rogers

Monica Rogers is the Health Information Literacy Coordinator for the NN/LM MidContinental Region. As such she oversees specific activities of the NNLM/MCR related to health literacy.

Ms. Rogers participated in numerous outreach activities. Outreach included visits, presentations, and exhibits at meetings, formal training sessions for health care providers, as well as training for CE credits for librarians both in-person and online. This outreach resulted in contact through classes and hands on training to 29 health care providers, 7 translators and interpreters, 5 high school students, 4 Creighton faculty, 72 Creighton students, (with an additional 110 viewing an online recording of a presentation,) and 47 librarians.

Ms. Rogers also conducted two online training sessions with 42 attendees, as well as participated in other online presentations through the Regional Medical Library’s office. In addition to training, Ms. Rogers exhibited at local events including the Nebraska Library Association, various Creighton University Continuing Education conferences, Nebraska SciFest, several local church health fairs, and presented to the Aksarben Elmwood Park Neighborhood Association and to staff and patrons of the Mexican Consulate. Ms. Rogers also conducts outreach to the other states in the NN/LM MidContinental Region and did so by exhibiting and presenting a poster at the Joint Conference of Librarians of Color, as well as exhibiting and teaching a class to health professionals at the Church Health Conference and presented two posters at the Medical Library Association’s annual meeting.

Ms. Rogers also consulted, promoted collaborations, and worked with local community based organizations such as the Heart Ministry Center, The Fred Leroy Health and Wellness Center, Nebraska Association of Translators and Interpreters, Health Literacy Nebraska, University of Nebraska College of Public Health, Plaza Partnership, Nebraska AIDS Project, Cooking Matters, and the South Omaha Community Care Council. The Health Sciences Library provides support to offices and departments at Creighton University

through this position, including the Health Sciences Multicultural and Community Affairs Office (HS-

MACA), the School of Pharmacy and Health Profession’s Office of Interprofessional Scholarship, Service

and Education (OISSE) and Ms. Rogers serves as an Academic Partner on the Center for Promoting

Health and Health Equality (CPHHE) Board.

The “Bringing Health Information to the Community” (BHIC) blog is an important outreach

communication tool for the National Network of Libraries of Medicine. Ms. Rogers oversees the blog,

posting content, sending out the Digest to subscribers, coordinating contributors and other web admin

functions. BHIC now has over 800 subscribers. Ms. Rogers instituted a link tracker and the blog is now

steadily averaging over 3500 link clicks a month. Contributors from five other NN/LM Regions provide

national representation and focus on national initiatives.

Below are listed major goals for the Health Information Literacy Project for 2013/14:

Increase public awareness of and access to high quality electronic health information.

Network members and other organizations are better able to support access to health information resources

Promote Health Information Literacy Collaborations: Encourage and support health information literacy collaborations that reach other networks and relevant organizations

Manage and contribute content to Bringing Health Information to the Community blog
