She shares the aims behind its mission and expresses hopes for the museum's future. Through a survey of existing literature, interviews with museum founders, and reference to church writings, Mauti's presentation shows the value of collecting and preserving the past history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Africa. At Andrews University, Marianne Kordas wears many hats--music librarian, archivist, scholar. This presentation explores a multi-year project that allowed Kordas to engage all of her skills. Towards the end of her life, twentieth-century American composer, pianist, and pedagogue Dr. Blythe Owen gifted two sets of materials fo Andrews University.

As part of the project, five WSU faculty members received funds to revise their courses in summer 2017 to include low-cost resources for instruction in fall 2017. All five opted to adopt or create open educational resources (OER), or educational materials that are openly licensed and freely available to students. Following instruction in the fall, project leads documented cost savings for students and learning outcomes in the affected courses, including grades and rates of withdrawal. The poster will present these outcomes as a means of assessing the effectiveness of directing university funding toward creation and adaption of OER. Talea Anderson currently works as a Scholarly Communication Librarian at Washington State University (WSU). In this capacity, she pursues a variety of projects that endeavor to increase access to university research. These include managing the university's institutional repository, coordinating a small-grants project to increase use of open educational resources (OER), and encouraging faculty and students to use tools such as ORCID identifiers. --------------------------- Christy Scott is the Education Services librarian at Peterson Memorial Library where she coordinates information literacy in general studies and senior research classes.

Neal's current research interests include copyright in academic and medical settings, plagiarism, and information ethics. --------------------------- 2:00-2:45pm 2:45-3:00pm 3:00-3:30pm Numerous studies in large universities have repeatedly found that librarians are rarely students’ first choice of information assistance (Thomas, Tewell, & Wilson 2017; Van Kampen-Breit and Cooke, 2015; Miller & Murillo 2012). In such institutions, structures are not necessarily in place to facilitate librarian-student contact (Miller and Murillo, 2012). Consequently, students are largely unaware of librarians’ expertise to support their academic success and less likely to approach them. (Bickley and Corrall, 2011). Small universities provide greater opportunity for librarian- student contact. This changes the dynamic of interaction. Based on three years of survey data, Burman University librarian Sheila Clark and her co-authors propose the following sequence as a chain of events that shift perception of the librarian and eventually results in greater IL competence and academic success for students: librarian-student interaction influences the perception of librarians as competent, which in turn increases the students’ use of library resources and services. ASDAL President Lori Curtis leads the first business session of the 39th annual ASDAL conference. --------------------------- 8:15-8:45am 8:45-9:00am 9:00-9:45am 9:45-10:00am Guest speaker: Rowena Moore Shane MacDonald is Special Collections Archivist at the American Catholic History Research Center and University Archives (ACUA), in northwest Washington, D.C. In his keynote address to ASDAL, MacDonald will speak to the conference theme of "Librarians Outside Libraries." The Catholic University of America Archives faces many challenges in balancing its limited resources with its vast array of patrons - from campus administrators and students to visiting researchers and religious orders. With backgrounds in history, education, and marketing, the staff began to experiment both in and outside the reading room with how to proactively use their collections and skills as teaching tools. Bringing a pedagogical approach to reference, outreach, and administrative operations, MacDonald found new ways to engage and learn from stakeholders and patrons, while also incorporating his professional experiences from outside the archives. During the break, enjoy a slideshow looking back on a decade of D. Glenn Hilts scholarship recipients. --------------------------- 11:30-Noon Noon-1:00pm 1:00-1:30pm The Weimar Institute Library exists to support the mission of the Institute: to develop leaders in comprehensive health evangelism. Toward this end the Library provides resources for research, assistance with research, and a space for quiet study and reflection. Joel Lutes will report on his work in the Weimar Institute Library, touching on the role the library played in Weimar's recent accreditation through the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) Senior College and University Commission. Within the North American Division more than half of PreK-12 schools will have no more than three teachers on their staff. Teacher training includes how to teach Physical Education, Music, and Art, but despite evidence supporting the importance of libraries to student outcomes, no courses covering library or school media center skills are offered. Christy Scott's presentation presents supporting evidence for library training for Education students. She shares ways that building liaison relationships with Education Faculty at Walla Walla University has opened opportunities within existing coursework, and she suggests possibilities for future research. --------------------------- 1:00-4:00pm 4:00-8:00pm 7:30-92:00am 8:00-8:20am 8:20-8:45am 8:45-9:00am This is a practical, hands-on workshop that demonstrates methods and reasoning behind archival processing. The workshop is hosted by the Archives & Records Management Section. It is free to attend. ASDAL and GC folks will warmly greet you with light refreshments at the registration table in the hotel. This is where you pick up your conference name tag and bag or pay for any extra banquet or tour tickets. Guest speaker: GC Secretary G.T. Ng General Conference hosts and ASDAL executives welcome you to the 39th annual ASDAL Conference. ARS Chair Jim Ford introduces the morning program. --------------------------- Noon-1:00pm 1:00-3:30pm 1:00-1:15pm 1:15-2:00pm See orange tabbed pages for Records Management programming offered at this time. Scientific research builds on past work. Scientists should and do reference previous studies in their reports of present research. But do they quote the literature accurately? In general, do cited articles support the propositions for which they are cited? Multiple studies have considered this question of quotation accuracy in medical literature, but quotation accuracy has not been rarely discussed in other disciplines. AdventHealth University librarian Neal Smith will report his initial findings in a study of quotation accuracy for top journals in multidisciplinary sciences (Nature, Science, Nature Communications, Science Advances, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and National Science Review), focusing on amount and nature of any errors. He will also discuss the implications for librarians and begin a conversation about how we can improve our patrons’ use of scientific literature. --------------------------- 2:00-2:45pm 2:45-3:00pm 3:00-4:00pm 4:00-5:00pm 5:00-7:00pm 7:00-10:00pm (continued) This presentation examines the history of the collection and its processing, the significance of Owen's life and documentary legacy, and some of the unorthodox processing choices made to better facilitate research in the collection (as well as some of the archivist's initial mistakes). Far from being a static collection of musty papers, Collection 186 has proven a rich locus for learning about the dynamic interaction between being both the librarian/archivist processing a collection, and the scholar conducting musicological research in it. The Adventist Digital Library team has spent the last eighteen months working on critical platform enhancements. Eric Koester's presentation features a demonstration of new functionality and a discussion of potential future enhancements. Please bring your questions, comments, and ideas to share. The meeting will be chaired by Paulette Johnson. --------------------------- SDA Classification Advisory Committee Lori Curtis (2016-2019), Chair Adorée Hatton (2018-2021) Genevieve Singh (2018-2021) Felipe Tan [Editor, ex officio] Seventh-day Adventist Periodical Index Advisory Committee Lawrence Onsager [Library Director of Host Institution, ex officio], Chair Paulette McLean Johnson (2014-2019) Shelia Clark (2016-2021) Carolyn Gaskell (2017-2022) Jim Ford (2016-2021) [ADL Liasion], Secretary Shan Tamares [Loma Linda University Library Director, ex officio] Lori Curtis [ASDAL President, ex officio] Site Planning Committee Paulette McLean Johnson (2016-2019) Norah Mauti (2018-2021) Chapters African Chapter General Coordinator: Clara Okoro (2017-2018) Inter-American Chapter General Coordinator: Keisha Brown-Dixon Other chapters currently inactive.

Cruz describes the personal journey that led her to choose librarianship as a career, and she offers suggestions on how to find, engage, and support future prospective Library and Information professionals. Allison Fox reflects on what she has learned while managing students. She ponders why library school does little to prepare librarians to train workers or wrangle schedules. Talking points also include the art of diplomacy (i.e., when to comfort and when to kick it up a notch) and dealing with payroll. Neal Smith presents a case study of his experience becoming an embedded librarian in the Center for Population Health Research at AdventHealth University. Neal tells how he developed the relationship with the center, what roles he has played, and the lessons he has learned. He also shares his plans for the Center's future and with other groups on the AdventHealth University campus. --------------------------- THURSDAY Or), continued 1:45-2:45pm 2:45-3:15pm 3:15-3:30pm 3:30-4:15pm 4:15-5:15pm 6:00-9:00pm Break Out Sessions Meeting locations will be announced.
