Roof Being Replaced on Love North and Link

As some of you may have noticed there has been some construction on Love Library this past week.  The construction is replacing the roof over Love North and the Link.  Love Library will remain open during holiday and regular hours throughout this re-roofing project.  Completion date is scheduled for March 2014.

New Interim Engineering Librarian appointed

The UNL Libraries announced December 16, 2013 that Ted E. Naylor was appointed Interim Engineering Librarian and started on December 1, 2013.  In his role he will be liaison to the College of Engineering and all of its units from Architectural Engineering to Mechanical Engineering. Naylor has worked for the UNL Libraries since January 2006 in the position of Special Projects Librarian and was responsible for projects assigned to him by the Dean of Libraries, including reviewing, negotiating, and completing vendor license agreements, the assessment of the Engineering Library, and evaluating policies for digitization projects.

Before joining UNL, Naylor worked as the Interlibrary Loan Librarian at both the Wichita State University in Kansas from 1993-2005, and the Texas Woman’s University in Denton, Texas from 1989-1992. Naylor received his Master’s degree in Library Science from the University of Oklahoma and his Bachelor’s degree in English Literature from Oklahoma State University.

Naylor says his main focus will be working with Engineering faculty and students to help evaluate the Engineering Library’s print collection to prioritize high-use materials to stay on site and move low-use materials to the LDRF or satellite storage. 

“I will also be working with faculty to determine what they need from an Engineering Librarian in terms of reference, instruction, and assistance with research,” explains Naylor.

Naylor’s office will be in the Engineering Library, W204R Nebraska Hall, and he can be reached at 402-472-3412 or tnaylor2@unl.edu.

Starting in Spring Semester, Love Library Extends Hours

By popular request, Love Library will extend its regular hours during the Spring semester from Midnight to 1:00 am.  The extension will take effect starting on January 13, 2014, the first day of spring semester and will be extended on Sunday through Thursday in the regular schedule.

If there are other suggestions or comments you have for the UNL Libraries to consider please participate in polls or use studies here: http://unl.libguides.com/ImproveUX

Thank you!

What is http://transcribe.unl.edu?

The best part about the internet, is that it’s searchable.  Looking for a good cookie recipe?  Search “Delicious cookie recipes” in google and you come up with a million answers.  Looking for how to make some great Christmas Ornaments?  Search “How to make great Christmas ornaments.”  Life is so much easier when things are searchable. 

This is why the UNL Libraries have a very important project going on where many volunteers are needed to help.  The libraries are trying to make the UNL yearbooks searchable.  In order to do this people need to go through and write out what every page of every yearbook says word for word.  The project is halfway done, but in order to finish it more volunteers are needed!  So go to http://transcribe.unl.edu/ and starting transcribing so that this project can get done so alums, students, faculty and many more can search the yearbooks for what they’re looking for.

Deadlines and Procedures for Spring 2014 Course Reserves

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln libraries offers faculty and graduate assistants the opportunity to put library books, journal articles, and other materials, as well as personal copies of books, on reserve and make them available to students. The Reserves Service is available at Love Library, C.Y. Thompson Library and the other branch libraries.
We would like to remind you of the following deadline. Reserve lists turned in by December 13th shall have their items processed by the first day of the Spring semester. Reserve requests turned in after the deadline will be processed in the order they are received.

I. Library Books and Personal Books

Books can be physically put on reserve and made available in city and east campus libraries. You can request books from the UNL libraries to be placed on reserve by using the new electronic reserve form located at http://libraries.unl.edu/printform.
Personal copies of books will follow the same procedure as Library books. The libraries are not responsible for personal copies placed on reserve.
We encourage you to remind your students that a UNL I.D. card is required to check out items on reserve. We file reserve books by the book’s title. If you have assigned your students to read a chapter from a book, please make sure your syllabus lists the complete title of the book as it is listed in the library catalogue in addition to the chapter title.

II. Electronic Reserves

Materials can also be made available to students, 24 hours a day/7 days a week, via electronic reserve at http://0-cors0812.unl.edu.library.unl.edu/ereserves/. Items will be arranged by class name and instructor. The types of materials that can be made available electronically include:
• Exams
• lecture notes
• student papers (which must be approved by the student)
• government publications
• one article from a journal issue
• one chapter from a book.
Materials placed on Electronic Reserve are accessible only to those affiliated with UNL. Photocopied materials consisting of two or more articles from a journal issue or more than one chapter from a single book must have copyright compliance, or meet the criteria under the fair use guidelines for classroom copying in not-for-profit educational institutions.
If you’d rather hand in a USB of material to be placed on electronic reserve, it should contain the material along with the class name, instructor, and email address. Image files, such as TIFF or PDF may also be submitted on USB. These can be forwarded to one of the contact people listed at the end of the memo.

Meet the New Guy in Town


He raised Giant African Snails while living in Taiwan, collects plasma globes and lava lamps, plays minecraft on a daily basis and likes to hunt ghosts. 
Meet Will Dooling, UNL Libraries newest reference instruction associate (RIS) at the Love Library.  His favorite thing about working at the library is helping people and teaching people how to do things, because as a librarian he teaches new things every day.  His least favorite thing about working at the library is the perception that people have about librarians, that they’re quiet and nerdy.

“I’m too loud and too outgoing, but I am a nerd,” Dooling said.

Dooling recently started a twitter account @unlnewguy.  “I think people should follow me because I am funny, and because they can learn what’s happening in the library in a different way, where a student would care about it, where it’s coming from a younger perspective,” Dooling said. 
On twitter lately, Dooling has enjoyed playing along with memes and posting on the topic, “add a word, ruin a movie.”

Other things Dooling is interested in are Ancient History, philosophy and Science; he used to work as a Science teacher in Taiwan for two years.  When he was in Taiwan he raised Giant African Land Snails that are about the size of a mouse (no that wasn’t a joke).  As said earlier, Dooling also enjoys collecting plasma globes and lava lamps, online gaming (mainly minecraft), and super natural stuff like ghost hunting.  In fact, he just recently got into contact with a ghost hunting group in Lincoln.
“I would appreciate a student that knows any supernatural stuff, like psychics or UFO sightings, tweet anything like that @unlnewguy,” Dooling said.

 Now that you have a little bit of insight on one of Love Libraries newest members, please follow him @unlnewguy.

Bibliography on the Ogallala Aquifer wins award

The Geoscience Information Society Best Paper Award Committee has selected "The Ogallala Aquifer in Nebraska: Gray Literature (1891-2010)" by Adonna Fleming, Leslie M. Delserone and Elaine Nowick for this year's Best Paper Award. It was published in 2012 in volume 13 of the Journal of Agricultural and Food Information. The members of the committee found it to be a very timely discussion of the issues involved in compiling an Ogallala Aquifer bibliography and especially of the importance of gray literature to the topic and its lack of representation in the library and digital information worlds. This paper highlights a specific gap in environmental information, but it is a common problem for researchers in a variety of subjects and it deserves more attention by the information community.

Happenings in the Engineering Library


The Engineering library is full of many perks.  Today marked the highly anticipated return of free, freshly made popcorn on Wednesdays.  They also offer free BYOM (bring your own mug) coffee in the mornings Monday-Friday.  But that’s not all, the engineering library’s microwave is also back in business. 

Besides going there for just the free popcorn and coffee, you can sit down and study in their three new study rooms that are now open north of the library.  They are open on a first come, first serve basis.

Lastly, the clutter in the Engineering library is finally going to be put away.  Their new Library Services desk has been installed and will soon be put to use.  This means that everything will finally be put back in to its rightful place and that we will see the engineering library back in order soon.

Love Library Powers Up



Many students, during the day, find themselves with phones or laptops that have died during class, while studying or even while walking to class.  Love Library came up with a solution for what to do when this happens.  Instead of walking all of the way back to the dorms, greek houses or off campus houses, any student can walk over to the Love Library and use one of their Kwikboosts. 

Kwikboosts are charging stations set up around the library.  There are four Kwikboosts located in the library, one in the talk zone, two in the Link area and one on the first level of Love North.  Installing a Kwikboost in C.Y. Thompson library is under discussion as of now.

Each Kwikboost comes with two iPhone Lightning cables (charges the newest iPhones and iPads), iPhone 30-pin cable (charges older model iPhones and iPads), and the Micro USB cord (charges most other devices including newer Blackberry’s and Android devices like Samsung, Motorola, Nokia, etc).

If an iPhone or laptop runs out of battery life, just stop by one of the four conveniently located Kwikboosts in the Love Library.

Czech History Exhibit in Love Library North until Sept 27



Heydrich shows his presence in Love Library
The Czech Komensky Club and the UNL Czech Language Program from the University of Nebraska are sponsoring an exhibit on loan from the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Washington D.C. entitled: The Heydrich Exhibit The exhibit presents the political career of Reinhard Heydrich (7 March 1904 – 4 June 1942).
The exhibit is located on the second floor of Love Library North, from August 27th to September 27th.
Known as the “Butcher of Prague,” Heydrich was a high-ranking Nazi official and close collaborator with Adolph Hitler, Heinrich Himmler and Adolph Eichmann. He presided at the Nazi Wannsee Conference at which the final solution for all European Jews was finalized and put into motion. He was appointed Deputy Reich’s Protector of Bohemia and Moravia in September of 1941, the territories occupied by Nazi Germany in 1939.
On May 27, 1942, aided by the Czech resistance, a team of Czech paratroopers trained in Britain attacked and mortally wounded him. A week later Heydrich died from his wounds. In retaliation the Nazi’s annihilated the villages of Lidice and Ležáky.
The sponsoring organizations wish to express their gratitude to John Fiala of the Nebraska Czech Language Foundation for acquiring the exhibit and scheduling its displays throughout the Midwest.

Construction in the Engineering Library begins Wednesday, June 26, and will continue through the summer.
