I presented an overview of library discovery systems at the University Committee on the Library yesterday, and thought I'd share it here also.

For more information about learning to use the various tools provided by the library, see these links as well:

If you have a research writing/information finding component in your class, the MSU Libraries Peer Research Assistant program is equipped to help. These undergraduate students can help their peers:

Plan for a research project (such as developing a search strategy)
Find information for research papers (like scholarly articles or books)
Evaluate information (is this paper scholarly?)
Understand citation styles and create citations (MLA, APA, etc.)
Get connected to library services

Good morning, MSU! I'm Julie Taylor, Publishing Services Coordinator at the Libraries, and today I'm hosting an Ask Me Anything on Incorporating technologies at the MSU Libraries from book design to 3D printing to laser and vinyl cutting to poster plotting. Please share your questions and ideas by commenting on this post.

MSU's Office of Inclusion and Intercultural Initiatives hosts "Learn at Lunch"!

Held monthly during the academic year, the Learn at Lunch series presents informal seminars on a variety of topics related to inclusion, social justice and equity. Everyone is welcome to bring their lunch and join the conversation.

The Learn at Lunch series is sponsored in collaboration with the Academic Advancement Network, the Office of the Associate Provost for Undergraduate Education, the Graduate School and MSU Libraries. The sessions bring important topics related to inclusive teaching to the campus community, with a focus on presenting best practices and fostering dialogue in an effort to build inclusive communities.

Check-in here for the schedule as more opportunities to Learn at Lunch are scheduled:

Hello! I'm Susan Kendall, Copyright Librarian at the MSU Libraries.

ASK ME ANYTHING TODAY with Megan Kudzia - Digital Pedagogy/Research in Current Remote Moment

Megan Kudzia is a Digital Scholarship Librarian at Michigan State University. Based in the Library’s Digital Scholarship Lab, she works with faculty and library colleagues, particularly on designing digital assignments and embedding in classes, and also with students on their digital projects. She is professionally involved in DH@MSU, Code4Lib, ILiADS, and Mi-ALA.



This AMA is answering your questions about digital pedagogy and digital research. Rather than addressing the Core technologies we’re using in teaching online, today we’re grappling with the often-steep learning curve for tools and methods such as website building, coding generally, textual analysis, or digital mapping. If you are struggling with how to structure assignments geared toward this type of work due to our current inability to troubleshoot together in person, or if you are a learner struggling with feelings of frustration as you try to muddle through on your own, let’s talk! Ask me anything.

🧬 Think of AI Uses as Along a Continuum
Monash University describes four examples of AI use in their courses:
1. Explore AI with students to build AI Literacy and discuss academic integrity.
2. Design assessments that focus on process rather than product to build critical thinking.
3. Incorporate new AI-enabled activities, like simulated personas.
4. Use AI for basic assessment, freeing educators to focus on personalized feedback.

Hi folks! We're excited for our discussion of Ch. 5 and 6 of the Quaye, Harper, and Pendakur text. Stacia has graciously volunteered to serve as our facilitator for this discussion; you can scroll down in the Feed to see the notes and questions she's uploaded. Alternately, I should point out that you can always see the running list of meeting agendas in the "Logistics" section of the Playlists tab; you should be able to see Stacia's material there too.

I also want to send out a word of welcome to Joyce Meier, who joined the group sometime after our last discussion. Joyce, the MSU Library has digital copies of the QHP book we're working through together available. You can check out the proposed reading schedule (if you haven't already) in the aforementioned Logistics Playlist.

See everyone Friday!
