T The deadline for submitting is September 1st and the conference submission details are below in the forwarded e-mail. Does anyone have any suggestions for a proposal for this year?s conference that fits with the theme? Please send any ideas and remember, sending me a great idea does not commit you to help us write our present the break-out panel in any way! ;) Last year at the FLA Annual Conference, FACRL sponsored a coffee break at 8:30 ? 9:30 AM on the first day of the conference, as well as submitting and presenting the following panel presentation: Redefining College Readiness: Library partnerships that Support Student Transition ? Heather Snapp, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Chloe Kolman, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Alison Larson, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Kimberly Copenhaver, Eckerd College text of the proposal below for your reference. Heather is willing to modify the direction of the proposal as needed, but time is tight as submissions are due Tuesday, September 6, at 11 pm. Redefining College Readiness: Library Partnerships that Support Student Transition It is clear that learning information literacy skills is essential to college students? education. What is not always clear is how best to reach them. At a time when new students are learning to navigate several new spaces, processes, and relationships at the same time, where does the library fit in? How can academic libraries help support this transition and demonstrate our worth to students?and other campus entities? Academic libraries are in a unique position to contribute to both the academic and social aspects of students? lives. Vincent Tinto?s (1993) social interaction model shows that student success and retention are significantly affected by how connected a student feels to the institution, a theory supported by Johnson (1997) and Rusing and Poole (2002), among others. Outreach efforts engage students and make them feel integrated with the university and comfortable with the library so they keep coming back?which will benefit them academically. To engage the most students possible, academic libraries need to cast their nets wide, partnering with other campus departments in both Academic and Student Affairs that interact with students in different ways. Examples of successful partnerships, such as Housing, New Student Programs, and Student Support Services, will be shared and help attendees to envision collaborations at their own institutions. Additionally, some of the richest partnerships can come from students serving as peer educators who can help reach and engage fellow students in new areas and in fresh ways. FGCU Library Student Ambassadors will share their experiences of interacting with their peers in reference, instruction, and outreach efforts. Characteristics of first-year students in transition will be discussed along with best practices for engaging with them. Attendees will identify campus departments with which they could collaborate and develop a plan to forge partnerships with them. Practical considerations and tips will be shared to get the most from these collaborative efforts. While academic librarians are the primary audience, public librarians would benefit from learning ways to form partnerships, which they could extrapolate to the collaborations they create with the larger community. Learning Outcomes: * Participants will understand characteristics of students in transition. * Participants will gain examples of successful partnerships and programs to engage students. * Participants will identify potential partnerships and develop a plan to work with them to reach and engage students.

I really like the topic of Bolstering Communication with Staff and/or Supervisors, though tips on leadership and becoming excellent managers might work really well for the Annual Conference theme of unleashing your superpower? What does everyone else think? Any other topic suggestions? Thanks, Craig From: Michelle Demeter [mailto:mdemeter at fsu.edu] Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2017 4:08 PM To: Craig Amos Subject: RE: [Fla-facrlboard] Proposal suggestions: [Fla-facrl] FLA 2018 Conference: Call for Program Proposals Craig, No problem. A few suggestions: ? Bolstering Communication with Staff and/or Supervisors (talking about ways to improve communication at all levels) ? Telling our story- discussing ways to tell our story as academic libraries that don?t have ROI figures that work for public libraries and have maybe more nebulous connections to retention/graduation rates ? Using Assessment or Micro-assessment to show how much libraries impact their campuses and in what ways- or how to gather evidence of impact or feedback using brief, micro-assessments? ? Tips on how to become excellent managers and to grow excellent managers among the staff I?m not sure these are fleshed out enough or what we?re looking for but maybe they?ll help a bit.

A few suggestions: ? Bolstering Communication with Staff and/or Supervisors (talking about ways to improve communication at all levels) ? Telling our story- discussing ways to tell our story as academic libraries that don?t have ROI figures that work for public libraries and have maybe more nebulous connections to retention/graduation rates ? Using Assessment or Micro-assessment to show how much libraries impact their campuses and in what ways- or how to gather evidence of impact or feedback using brief, micro-assessments? ?

T The deadline for submitting is September 1st and the conference submission details are below in the forwarded e-mail. Does anyone have any suggestions for a proposal for this year?s conference that fits with the theme? Please send any ideas and remember, sending me a great idea does not commit you to help us write our present the break-out panel in any way! ;) Last year at the FLA Annual Conference, FACRL sponsored a coffee break at 8:30 ? 9:30 AM on the first day of the conference, as well as submitting and presenting the following panel presentation: Redefining College Readiness: Library partnerships that Support Student Transition ? Heather Snapp, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Chloe Kolman, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Alison Larson, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Kimberly Copenhaver, Eckerd College text of the proposal below for your reference. Heather is willing to modify the direction of the proposal as needed, but time is tight as submissions are due Tuesday, September 6, at 11 pm. Redefining College Readiness: Library Partnerships that Support Student Transition It is clear that learning information literacy skills is essential to college students? education. What is not always clear is how best to reach them. At a time when new students are learning to navigate several new spaces, processes, and relationships at the same time, where does the library fit in? How can academic libraries help support this transition and demonstrate our worth to students?and other campus entities? Academic libraries are in a unique position to contribute to both the academic and social aspects of students? lives. Vincent Tinto?s (1993) social interaction model shows that student success and retention are significantly affected by how connected a student feels to the institution, a theory supported by Johnson (1997) and Rusing and Poole (2002), among others. Outreach efforts engage students and make them feel integrated with the university and comfortable with the library so they keep coming back?which will benefit them academically. To engage the most students possible, academic libraries need to cast their nets wide, partnering with other campus departments in both Academic and Student Affairs that interact with students in different ways. Examples of successful partnerships, such as Housing, New Student Programs, and Student Support Services, will be shared and help attendees to envision collaborations at their own institutions. Additionally, some of the richest partnerships can come from students serving as peer educators who can help reach and engage fellow students in new areas and in fresh ways. FGCU Library Student Ambassadors will share their experiences of interacting with their peers in reference, instruction, and outreach efforts. Characteristics of first-year students in transition will be discussed along with best practices for engaging with them. Attendees will identify campus departments with which they could collaborate and develop a plan to forge partnerships with them. Practical considerations and tips will be shared to get the most from these collaborative efforts. While academic librarians are the primary audience, public librarians would benefit from learning ways to form partnerships, which they could extrapolate to the collaborations they create with the larger community. Learning Outcomes: * Participants will understand characteristics of students in transition. * Participants will gain examples of successful partnerships and programs to engage students. * Participants will identify potential partnerships and develop a plan to work with them to reach and engage students.

We voted to present the awards to the following MLIS students: Jessica Black-Florida State University Alexandra Flores-University of South Florida Adam Berkowitz-University of South Florida The committee all agreed that each of these students have a lot to provide to the profession and will benefit from attending the FACRL Annual Meeting. I will be notifying them by the end of the day tomorrow of our decision. I do need volunteers from the Board to serve as conference mentors. The time commitment is up to you and your mentee. Last year some of the mentors spent the entire day with their mentees and they chatted before the conference. Other mentees were not as enthusiastic about having a conference mentor. I will be notifying the winners tomorrow about our decision and would like to send a follow up email with their mentor's contact info by the end of the day tomorrow or over the weekend.

But with pre-eminence and funding on the line, it is imperative that libraries show their usefulness in these areas, among others. This session will feature speakers from various academic libraries who will discuss ways of collecting, analyzing, and presenting data in a way that reveals positive impact on administrative academic performance goals. 1: Learn how to show evidence of impact on retention and/or graduation rates. 2: Learn new methods of assessment. I?d also recommend inviting Bob Dugan from UWF. He has done some great work on academic library ROI and assessment also.

Kim has provided a great template that we can use to write up a draft prior to submitting through the form (attached in Word). Does anyone have any good content or a possible speaker at their institution that might be a good fit for this presentation? The conference is not until May, so we will have plenty of time to prepare after submitting our initial proposal, if it is accepted. All ideas welcome!

I really like the topic of Bolstering Communication with Staff and/or Supervisors, though tips on leadership and becoming excellent managers might work really well for the Annual Conference theme of unleashing your superpower? What does everyone else think? Any other topic suggestions?

A few suggestions: ? Bolstering Communication with Staff and/or Supervisors (talking about ways to improve communication at all levels) ? Telling our story- discussing ways to tell our story as academic libraries that don?t have ROI figures that work for public libraries and have maybe more nebulous connections to retention/graduation rates ? Using Assessment or Micro-assessment to show how much libraries impact their campuses and in what ways- or how to gather evidence of impact or feedback using brief, micro-assessments? ? Tips on how to become excellent managers and to grow excellent managers among the staff I?m not sure these are fleshed out enough or what we?re looking for but maybe they?ll help a bit.

Michelle --- Michelle Demeter Assistant Director of Undergraduate Services Florida State University Libraries 850-645-2707 From: Fla-facrlboard [mailto:fla-facrlboard-bounces at lists.fsu.edu] On Behalf Of Craig Amos Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2017 3:46 PM To: fla-facrlboard at lists.fsu.edu Subject: [Fla-facrlboard] Proposal suggestions: [Fla-facrl] FLA 2018 Conference: Call for Program Proposals Importance: High Good afternoon, We had discussed at the recent FACRL Board Meeting having another FACRL panel presentation at this year?s upcoming FLA Annual Conference! T The deadline for submitting is September 1st and the conference submission details are below in the forwarded e-mail. Does anyone have any suggestions for a proposal for this year?s conference that fits with the theme? Please send any ideas and remember, sending me a great idea does not commit you to help us write our present the break-out panel in any way! ;) Last year at the FLA Annual Conference, FACRL sponsored a coffee break at 8:30 ? 9:30 AM on the first day of the conference, as well as submitting and presenting the following panel presentation: Redefining College Readiness: Library partnerships that Support Student Transition ? Heather Snapp, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Chloe Kolman, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Alison Larson, Florida Gulf Coast University Library ? Kimberly Copenhaver, Eckerd College text of the proposal below for your reference. Heather is willing to modify the direction of the proposal as needed, but time is tight as submissions are due Tuesday, September 6, at 11 pm. Redefining College Readiness: Library Partnerships that Support Student Transition It is clear that learning information literacy skills is essential to college students? education. What is not always clear is how best to reach them. At a time when new students are learning to navigate several new spaces, processes, and relationships at the same time, where does the library fit in? How can academic libraries help support this transition and demonstrate our worth to students?and other campus entities? Academic libraries are in a unique position to contribute to both the academic and social aspects of students? lives. Vincent Tinto?s (1993) social interaction model shows that student success and retention are significantly affected by how connected a student feels to the institution, a theory supported by Johnson (1997) and Rusing and Poole (2002), among others. Outreach efforts engage students and make them feel integrated with the university and comfortable with the library so they keep coming back?which will benefit them academically. To engage the most students possible, academic libraries need to cast their nets wide, partnering with other campus departments in both Academic and Student Affairs that interact with students in different ways. Examples of successful partnerships, such as Housing, New Student Programs, and Student Support Services, will be shared and help attendees to envision collaborations at their own institutions. Additionally, some of the richest partnerships can come from students serving as peer educators who can help reach and engage fellow students in new areas and in fresh ways. FGCU Library Student Ambassadors will share their experiences of interacting with their peers in reference, instruction, and outreach efforts. Characteristics of first-year students in transition will be discussed along with best practices for engaging with them. Attendees will identify campus departments with which they could collaborate and develop a plan to forge partnerships with them. Practical considerations and tips will be shared to get the most from these collaborative efforts. While academic librarians are the primary audience, public librarians would benefit from learning ways to form partnerships, which they could extrapolate to the collaborations they create with the larger community. Learning Outcomes: * Participants will understand characteristics of students in transition. * Participants will gain examples of successful partnerships and programs to engage students. * Participants will identify potential partnerships and develop a plan to work with them to reach and engage students.
