From kpatterson2 at fsu.edu Mon Aug 3 12:53:20 2020 From: kpatterson2 at fsu.edu (Keith Patterson) Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2020 16:53:20 +0000 Subject: [Art-instructors] Grades Message-ID: Hello all, This is another friendly reminder that Summer - Session C grades are due tomorrow, Tuesday, August 4th at 4:00PM. For those instructors who are new to this process or who may need a refresher, follow these steps to submit your grades: * Go to www.my.fsu.edu and log in using your FSUID and password. * From the left side of the portal page, choose Teaching -> Faculty Center to get to My Schedule. * Click the Grade Roster icon (which looks like a small person lecturing) next to the class whose grades you want to submit. The "Go" button should light up after a few moments. * Click the Go button to access the grade roster. * Click the Roster Grade drop-down next to the student's name and select their grade. * NOTE: a dialog box may continually appear as you enter grades reminding you that you have unsaved data. This is normal. Once you have entered all of the grades you intend to enter in one sitting, you can click Save to dismiss this. * The Grade Roster Action drop-down at the top of the roster will always be in the Not Reviewed status by default. You must change this status manually in order to submit your grades. Please remember to change the Approval Status to Approved. Your grades are not submitted if this is not done. A more complete guide (with screenshots) is available from the university's Student Central information site here. Please note: myFSU may default you to a different semester than Summer 2020 - Session C. Please be sure to double-check the semester you are working when you reach the My Schedule page! As usual, you will receive reminders periodically leading up to the due date for grades. We appreciate your hard work this semester and thank you in advance for taking a proactive approach to getting grades entered! **Thanks again for all your extra efforts this summer!

I am writing with ALL THE UPDATES from FSU Libraries on Fall 2020. I also wanted to highlight our FSU Libraries COVID-19 Updates and Resources as the best place to see current Library policies and services, as things do continue to change. Please don't hesitate to email me directly at LRSherman at fsu.edu if you have any questions or comments whatsoever! * FSU Libraries Reopening * Strozier Library will reopen to the public for limited hours starting on August 17th and Dirac will reopen for limited hours on August 24th. Hours here: https://lib.fsu.edu/hours * Library buildings will be open only for individual study and pick up library materials. Only members of the FSU community may enter and a valid FSU ID is required. * Anyone who enters any library buildings will be required to follow patron guidelines: https://www.lib.fsu.edu/news/reopening-guidelines. * Browsing the general collection stacks is not permitted until further notice. To request a physical item from our collection please use Curbside pick-up or LEDS. * Curbside pick-up will be available through the Fall 2020 semester. To place a request for curbside pick-up, please visit here: https://www.lib.fsu.edu/service/curbside-pick-up. * The Library Express Delivery Service (LEDS) will resume delivery to academic department main offices on August 24th. All registered LEDS users will be able to choose either curbside delivery or office delivery. LEDS will NOT be picking up materials this fall - all users should return their books to a library drop box. * ILL and UBorrow * InterLibrary Loan (ILL) is accepting requests for articles and book chapters, but requests for print materials are still suspended. * A limited version of Florida's UBorrow delivery system is up and running and we hope to expand soon. I feel comfortable advising that researchers can put in a request for books via UBorrow now, with the caveat that they might not be fulfilled (but also they might be!) * We have recently restarted reciprocal borrowing with the Ringling Museum Library - use the "REQUEST" link in the library catalogue to request these titles. * To find information about ILL, UBorrow, or LEDS, please visit this page: https://www.lib.fsu.edu/service/interlibrary-loan. * Course Reserves * Due to studies showing that COVID-19 can remain on print materials for up to 4 days, the Libraries will not have physical course reserves this fall. Please visit this page to find more information about course reserves scanning requests through our E-Reserves program: https://lib.fsu.edu/node/add/reserve-item-request * If you need to place a course reserves request for streaming media, please visit this page: https://lib.fsu.edu/node/add/streaming-media-course-reserve-r * Visual & Performing Arts Instruction * This semester I will only be offering asynchronous learning objects introducing Arts researchers to library resources and research best practices, rather than my typical synchronous classroom visits. I have created two complementary resources I hope you will use in your courses - they are appropriate for all levels of researchers and are best when used together: * I have created a Canvas modules for each major program within the College of Fine Arts - these research introduction modules cover the same content that I would offer in an in person class visit. They are all already in the Canvas Commons and ready for you to download today! * I have also updated and expanded all Fine Arts Research Guides to better facilitate online learning and research needs. * For full information about my asynchronous instruction program this fall please see this doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16TTz4216zxu3keraRytyIp7U1iL-EzynXLk3skwxOh0/edit?usp=sharing * Visual & Performing Arts Reference * Students and faculty alike are always welcome to email me directly at LRSherman at fsu.edu for anything library-related. There is no question too big or too small! Otherwise I will not be hosting open office hours this fall semester. * Budget/Fiscal Year Information for Collection Development * The FSU Libraries faces budget cuts for the 2020-2021 academic year and this means making difficult decisions about e-resources, databases, and physical collections. * As we move into the academic year, please keep this in mind when asking for materials for the library to purchase. Consider prioritizing your requests based on immediate teaching and research needs. * For requests placed this summer already: I am committed to approving these as soon as possible, and if you have not heard from me about a request you have placed as of the reading of this email you can assume everything is fine and it will be acquired. You will only hear back from me on materials requests when a request cannot be fulfilled or requires further conversation. * Some good news: The Robert B. Bradley Grant is again available for faculty and the deadline for this year's applications is October 9, 2020. If you would like to apply PLEASE email me sooner rather than later as I will need to see your completed application at least two weeks ahead of the deadline in order to write you a letter of support. * Continue to use the materials suggestion form on the library website for acquisitions requests. Be sure to fill it out as completely as possible to ensure accurate and timely review. Please note that RUSH is not a default option - it is very expensive and only for truly urgent needs such purchasing a book for course reserves. Email me if you have questions about this. * This is literally all I know right now. As soon as I know more I will absolutely be in touch. * I appreciate your understanding and patience during this time - all of this is far from ideal and I hate to start the new year on such a sour note!

Etschmaier, Ed.D., Dean of University Libraries: I hope you are all well and ready for the start of the semester. The message about the building hours for Strozier and Dirac Libraries was posted before I had a chance to sent this to you but I am sending this to you for your information. * Strozier Library will open the week of 8/17 and hours for that week are 8am - 5pm, Monday ?Friday. * Starting on Sunday, August 23rd the hours for fall are: * Strozier - Sunday through Friday * Dirac - Sunday through Thursday * Sunday: 10am-6pm (both buildings) * Monday-Thursday: 8am-8pm(both buildings) * Friday: 8am-6pm (Just Strozier) * Saturday - Both buildings closed based on past usage data (Virtual Reference Service available) The Libraries will not resume the Library Express Delivery Service until we can better establish which departmental offices will be open. We will also need to clarify pick-up locations for faculty. Until then, we will continue to offer curbside delivery. We believe this is safer and more dependable for everyone. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I will be out tomorrow (Friday) but will respond to email over the weekend. Jean Phillips will attend tomorrow?s meeting in my place.

Access to the FSU Libraries print collections will continue be made available through the Curbside Pickup Service. This decision was made with the intent to reduce traffic in academic buildings, and specifically, to reduce the need for library staff to interact with office managers. Returns can still be made to the outdoor library drop box. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to work towards providing the greatest amount of access to materials while keeping our staff safe.

To do this, students will need to follow Strozier building protocols (which are clearly posted on the web and in person), but nothing specific has changed regarding printing.

I hope everyone is well and that your semester is getting off to a smooth start. I have 2 Library updates for you this morning: * The budget is in! * And GOOD NEWS: the budget is flat from last year, meaning there are no cuts to the funds for departmental materials requests. * Please keep in mind that these requests should be for one-time purchases such as books/e-books or media - they cannot be used for recurring costs like new journal subscriptions or databases licenses. * I am currently reviewing requests already received and I should be caught up by early next week. I have already approved those items that were identified as being for fall courses or of urgent need. * If you have a new request to make please use the Materials Suggestion Form on the Library's mail website. * Although the budget is flat, I would still advise that requests for should prioritize items for immediate teaching and research needs, not wish list requests. As we continue in our online learning environment I am preferencing e-books and streaming media where possible and these cost considerably more than physical materials. * Library instruction * As a reminder I am only offering asynchronous instruction for Fine Arts classes this fall semester. I will not be available for live presentations this semester. * I have updated and expanded all of our Research Guides and created accompanying research intro Canvas modules for each CFA program. I welcome you to incorporate these into your course sites - the modules are already into the Canvas Commons! * I am also willing to create a pdf version of the Canvas module. * For more information on this program and for instructions about how to find the module or how to request a pdf handout please see this doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16TTz4216zxu3keraRytyIp7U1iL-EzynXLk3skwxOh0/edit?usp=sharing As always, if you or your students have any questions please don't hesitate to email me at LRSherman at fsu.edu.
