The Future Academic Library; Indigenous Issues and Infrastructure Development Policies

Seymour, Valerie
The Future Academic Library; Indigenous Issues and Infrastructure Development Policies
(2001)
Seymour, Valerie
Abstract:
Libraries must market their resources as academic departments do their research. Our websites can be our best public relations tool only if they are easy of access from their parent or institution's site. Opacs function well at item level but we need to showcase our collections (modern and heritage) with collection level description. Using the expertise and experience of projects and research at home and abroad it is feasible and desirable that COLICO, CONUL and other bodies explore a collaborative approach to a 'Mapping Ireland' project

The Irish in Asturias: the footprint of the Irish College, Salamanca, 1913–1950
(2012)
Richardson, Regina Whelan
Abstract:
Traces the history of the clerical students and rectors of the Irish College, Salamanca (Colegio Real de Nobles Irlandeses) on their summer vacations on the northern coast of Spain. The article draws chiefly on rectors’ reports to the Irish hierarchy in the Salamanca Archive, held in St. Patrick’s College, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland and on the papers of Alexander McCabe, rector of the College from 1935-49, held in the National Library of Ireland.. A summer house (Casona de Verines) was purchased in the early 1920s and thereafter the holidays were spent in Pendueles, Asturias. This article augments the small body of work that has been published to date on the 20th century history of the Irish College, Salamanca, it documents the Irish presence in Asturias, adding further details to our knowledge of the evacuation of the students on the outbreak of the Spanish civil war. It recounts some of the impressions and experiences of Alexander McCabe as an eye witness to the civil war...

The Irish Research electronic Library initiative – levelling the playing field?
(2008)
Dunne, Siobhán
Abstract:
Purpose - The Irish Research electronic Library (IReL) is a nationally funded electronic research library providing online access to full text articles from thousands of peer-reviewed publications in a range of disciplines. This paper examines the opportunities that have arisen for academic libraries at a local level in terms of how they expose resources and promote the initiative. It discusses the challenges that have arisen as libraries enhance, or indeed introduce, value added services to their research community. It examines the results of an in-depth national survey which yielded invaluable insights into how Irish researchers were using library services. Finally, it reflects on the challenges libraries face in facilitating and nurturing research behaviour. Design/methodology/approach – In the first quarter of 2007, seven university libraries asked their researchers for feedback on how they use IReL resources and their awareness of the initiative in the form of a national surve...

The Learning and Teaching Information Resources Toolkit: A guide to information sources to support you in your teaching.
(2009)
Fallon, Helen; Breen, Ellen
Abstract:
Lecturers and researchers will be familiar with the literature of their discipline. They may be less familiar with the literature of the scholarship of teaching and learning in their discipline or indeed generally. Rapid growth in information relating to effective and innovative teaching, learning and assessment strategies and other aspects of teaching and learning, alongside the increasing proliferation of electronic sources, may present challenges when searching for information. Additionally, lecturers, as researchers in their own discipline, will be interested in research-informed teaching. This poster will show you how to identify key information sources for sourcing information relating to the scholarship of teaching and learning in higher education, including books, journals, databases, and websites of professional organisations and associations. Tips on effectively using electronic resources, including contents alerts services will be provided.

The Salamanca Archive & the Irish Colleges in Spain: New Online Catalogue and Current Research
(2014)
Leyden, Susan; Richardson, Regina Whelan
Abstract:
Migration has always been a big factor in Irish history and from 1600 to 1800 continental Europe was the main destination for tens of thousands of Irish migrants. Significant groupings of Irish migrants and exiles were seeking religious refuge, due to a series of penal laws directed towards Catholics and in operation in Ireland from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century. These laws precluded the establishment of Catholic seminaries in Ireland as they forbade any type of Catholic teaching or education as well as encouraging the banishment of Catholic clergy in general. Various European cities and towns could provide places of support for the education and well-being of Catholic seminarists. Quickly, a network of Irish colleges began to emerge on the continent predominantly in Belgium, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal which educated both clergy and laity. The Irish colleges had the specific task of educating and training students for the priesthood and for the Irish Mission.

The Salamanca Archives
(1995)
Richardson, Regina Whelan
Abstract:
An overview of the Salamanca Archive held at St. Patrick’s College, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland, within the context of the history of the Irish Colleges in Spain. From the late 16th century, Irish colleges grew up on the continent in countries where trade links with Ireland were already well established and where there was support for Catholic reform. Young men, seeking an education for the professions or training for the priesthood, gravitated to university centres in France, Spain, Portugal, and the Low Countries where small colleges were established to provide their formation .The archives of the Irish College in Salamanca came to Maynooth on the closure of the college in 1951. They comprise some 50,000 administrative documents dating from the foundation of the college in 1592 to the mid- 20th century. The collection also includes some papers from other Irish colleges on the Iberian Peninsula: Lisbon (flourished 1590-1834), Valladolid (founded 1592), Santiago de Compostela (fl...

Time Out
(2000)
Fallon, Helen; Allen, Julie
Abstract:
Established as National Institute for Higher Education (NIHE) in 1980, Dublin City University (DCU) now has a user population of some 9,000 students. A feature of this new university has been a strong commitment to staff training and development. The library, which employes 60 staff, 28 full-time, the remainder part-time, has embraced this philosophy and commitment. A formal staff development policy has been produced. An induction programme and a mentoring system for new staff are in operation. In the summer of 1999 it was decided to further explore staff development opportunities by piloting an in-house programme specifically designed for all library assistants. This programme was initiated by the head of reader services, delivered by assistant librarians and co-ordinated by a senior library assistant. This article examines the framework in which this programme took place, the issues raised and the outcomes.

Using a Blended Group Learning Approach to Increase Librarians’ Motivation and Skills to Publish
(2012)
Fallon, Helen
Abstract:
While there is considerable research on interventions to support academic staff in writing for publication, there is limited literature on writing interventions for librarians. This article explores the potential of a blended learning approach to support librarians to develop the motivation and skills to write for publication. The program combines three elements: a formal writing seminar; a structured series of online exercises and mentoring support; and two peer-feedback days. The article suggests that the combination of online and face-to-face activities has the potential to be a sustainable model for helping to develop librarians as academic writers. It suggests that this type of model could provide a context, which is currently lacking, for librarians to develop their identity and skills as academic writers.
