Zachary Gilbert traveled with the Cathedral of St. Mike Anderson has continued to perform in concerts across Connecticut, including University of Connecticut operas, a concert with premieres of works by The Hartt School Community Division composition students, and a recent Hartford Independent Chamber Orchestra concert with a program of music by Hartt faculty and alumni. To see the guide, visit /GettingStartedwithOER. Also, the guide is openly licensed, so that other institutions starting their own OER initiatives could potentially use it as a starting point to create their own. The hope is that the guide will be another educational tool to use when helping faculty who want to learn more about OER and start some of the research on their own. It was a great lesson in practicing what the OER community preaches, and it opened up channels of communication nationally with other OER coordinators. Additionally, the practice of putting the guide together was a true example of the spirit of being “Open.” Maynard created parts of the guide, but there were pieces adopted and adapted from other openly licensed guides. The process of creating the guide involved surveying numerous OER coordinators across the country for feedback on the dos and don’ts of designing an online resource, and synthesizing and sharing the information with the OER community. It also has a section highlighting the grant projects from the 2017-18 OER Adopt, Adapt, and Create Grants. The new LibGuide, to debut in fall 2019, includes three main sections:Įach section contains captioned video tutorials to help faculty learn more about OER, navigate the repositories, and find out how they can start their own OER journey. Soon, you’ll be a power user, too!Īs a fellow in the SPARC (Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition) Open Education Leadership Program, Harrison Libraries Reference Librarian Jillian Maynard completed a capstone project in which she revitalized the existing OER LibGuide for the University. You can also use Library Thing to catalog your own collection of books! These options work best from a computer browser, so if you are on a mobile device, just select “view in desktop mode” to see these features. There you can read book reviews and get recommendations for other books you might like.

This is a free utility, supported by readers around the globe. Lastly, you can try a resource called Library Thing. The “Google Preview” button, located under the book jacket images, can take you to a Google Books page with even more information and options. You can also do a search on the title in Google Scholar to see what other researchers have written. This is really useful if you are off campus and you want to see if a library within driving distance has a copy you can borrow. There you’ll find a button called “Search for this title in…" It will give you the option to search for your item in a few more places like WorldCat, the largest catalog of resources the world has ever seen. But did you know that you can use the catalog to search in other collections? Try it out! The next time you are looking in the catalog at a book (you can use this for other resources, but it doesn’t work as well for non-print resources) take a look at the “Title Actions” box on the right-hand side. For example, you can search for authors or items in the reserves collection or search for DVDs found in just the Allen Library, or for items written in German. You might already know that you can use the dropdown options in our online catalog toolbar, to perform more advanced searches. Thank you, Randi Ashton-Pritting Director, Harrison Libraries and the new sheriff in town. I look forward to all your help and suggestions as I build the spring 2020 program. So, in the meantime as we wait for an official acceptance on our offer for the next director, I will be the interim the next few semesters. We want to thank Steve for helping push the envelope on our lectures and courses and we wish him well in all his future endeavors. But, to everything there is a reason and grandchildren had a greater hold on Steve than me locking him in his office. Some speakers had us questioning what we took for granted.
He brought in speakers to test our knowledge and broaden our thoughts and minds.

Steve leaves our program after administrating the PC for the past three years. Over the years, I have gotten to work with the best of the best when it comes to the Presidents’ College (PC) and Steve Metcalf is no exception. We learn from these people and we get to stand on their broad shoulders. Some, make major impacts on how we think, react, explore, and act.
