Connect to session.
Where is academia headed? How did the extraordinary events of 2020 reshape higher education’s futures? What does it all mean for academic libraries? In this session we look forward to the future with a close eye on the present, starting by examining the major forces reshaping higher education before COVID-19 struck. These include demographics, macroeconomics, geopolitics, and enrollment. Next we summarize the pandemic’s impact on colleges and universities, forecasting long-term changes. Then we advance farther ahead to anticipate the ways climate change might transform academia.
Host: Pamela Benjamin
Learning management systems (LMS) are designed to create, distribute, and manage the delivery of educational content. Integrating library resources and research assistance directly within the LMS allows students to access library materials directly through their course and reimagines the use of e-reserves. Allowing students access via the LMS reduces access barriers and places the library within the academic context of the course. This presentation will discuss a project, led by four librarians at the Montana State University (MSU) Library, to systematically evaluate the usefulness of Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) integrations in the MSU campus LMS, Brightspace by D2L. They will share what they learned about faculty and student needs for content in the LMS and what role library specific LTIs play in this process. They will also share findings from a national survey focused on how libraries choose what resources to integrate into their LMS and whether those libraries have any policies to guide these decisions.
Host: Star Bradley
How well does your faculty know what library resources best support them and their students? Do you know what journals, ebooks, and streaming videos, might be valuable resources for classes?
Susan Matter will go over a few ideas for connecting faculty with online resources, but this is a roundtable event, so please share your ideas as well.
Host: Della Dubbe
Demonstrate easy, low-impact stretches that release tight shoulder, neck, and hip muscles.
Host: Della Dubbe
A quick guide to understanding the Creative Commons licenses, how they interact with Fair Use Doctrine, and their role in furthering education and librarianship.
Host: Della Dubbe
Our patrons need research and reference assistance at all hours of the day, not only when the physical library building is open. Providing high-quality, accessible online performance support (or point-of-need) tools for students, faculty, and staff can help them successfully complete their work even when the library is closed. We will present on MSU Library’s work in the area of performance support including the updating of LibGuides, providing quick and easy tutorials through the library’s website, and integrating into the campus LMS (Brightspace).
*This could also be a time to brainstorm ideas on how to reach distance, online, and off-campus students.
Host: Darlene Hert
Building diverse library collections, outreach activities, improving information literacy, and classroom assessments, Zines have a very versatile ability to do all of this and be a platform for raising marginalized voices and student voices within library collections. Jones will provide expertise along with practical and fun applications for integrating zines into today’s academic library.

Over the fifteen years I’ve been working as a journalist, I’ve become increasingly aware of (and troubled by) the ways in which a reporter’s inner compass can be their own worst enemy. Biases, beliefs, and shortsightedness can lead a reporter astray on the search for truth, understanding, and sources. But how are you supposed to ignore your intuition when all you have is your intuition to guide you!?? Enter: The librarian! In this talk, I’ll explore concrete ways that that information professionals are crucial in hacking the compass of reporters (and researchers and seekers of any kind), and in so doing widening the search for understanding.
* Sorry, Lulu had to cancel due to the birth of her son. We wish Lulu and her family's newest addition the best! (And hope we may find another opportunity to work with her in the future.)

Leslie Reiger & the Cataloging Committee
The TRAILS Cataloging Committee will answer cataloging questions live at a virtual table talk. Questions can be related to cataloging in Alma, or general cataloging. Help us help you – submit your questions ahead of time to leslie.rieger@umontana.edu. We will also answer questions that are not pre-submitted as time allows, but submitting them ahead of time will allow us to identify themes and gather additional resources as appropriate to provide fuller answers.

RMC Library has developed an open-source alternative to LibGuides and other pathfinders that focuses on simplicity for both librarians and end-users. This talk will introduce participants to our Cheatsheets and to the issues that commonly arise with LibGuides usage that this system is intended to solve. I will also provide a technical overview of how the system is built and used. Hopefully, the talk will spur participants to reflect on their own pathfinder usage. In addition, we hope, in time, to help other libraries implement the system if they desire.

For the symposium, the Resource Sharing and Fulfillment committee proposes a roundtable presentation on beginner/intermediate level customizing and configuring (email) letters in Alma. I will be the lead presenter, but other members of our RSF steering committee will also contribute to the panel. It is our hope that we can make this customization process easier, especially for the smaller libraries, some of which are still using many default fields and settings in their patron letters. This would lead to better service for and communication with our patrons.
Host: Susan Matter
The International Coalition of Library Consortia (ICOLC) includes approximately 200 library consortia from around the world. The ICOLC OCLC Task Force was charged to work with OCLC to communicate ICOLC members’ experiences with OCLC services and programs with the goal of improving overall service to libraries. ICOLC produced a report (March 29, 2021) to detail its concerns and to request specific actions and has proposed working with OCLC to reimagine services in the 21st century. The chair and members of the ICOLC Task Force will provide an overview of this report as well as their experience in its creation.
* Sorry, this session has been canceled. OCLC has requested that ICOLC not publicize the report further.
Through this session, attendees will learn how to talk critically about social media, including the design of these platforms, how information is collected and used, and how to navigate the communities and information in these environments as an educated, responsible user. Additionally, they will be introduced to a variety of tools that can help them understand and interpret social media information and environments. Finally, they will gain knowledge of how social movements are advanced through social media and how they can learn more about the experiences of others and become an ally and advocate through these networks.
Host: Susan Lee
The presentation will focus on the impact of stress on our daily lives and simple ways to build mindfulness and wellness through presence, breathing, and body techniques. Participants will have an opportunity to practice a few techniques that can be cultivated in daily activities.
Host: Pamela Benjamin
