Third Scholarly Communications
Symposium Preserving
your Intellectual Property Rights as a Scholar Scholarship is changing rapidly in ways that hit at the heart of the academy across all disciplines, particularly in the area of author retention rights. These trends affect how faculty and researchers undertake work and have an impact on authorship, editorial boards, promotion and tenure decisions, and access to resources. Please join us for what we hope will be a stimulating presentation and discussion on Author Retention Rights and what this means for your scholarly work. Our panel will include:

» Food For Fines Put your library fines to work for the community. For two weeks, April 5-April 19, the Main Campus Libraries will exchange Food For Fines.

Ground Rules: $1.00 in current fines will be removed from your recrod for every item. We can only remove fines, not costs associated with book replacement fees.

»2006 AJCU LibQual+™ Survey A Success!
This spring the Georgetown University Library joined the 28 members of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities in conducting the 2006 LibQual+™ Survey. As participants in this survey, we will be able to analyze and compare our service quality results with other AJCU members.
The 2006 LibQual+™ questionnaire was emailed to a randomly selected group of 3,000 faculty and students over the last three weeks, and we would like to thank the more than 400 participants who have responded.
You can find more information on the LibQual+™ survey, including an FAQ page, on the Library’s website. Survey results will be distributed to the AJCU libraries at the American Library Association annual meeting in New Orleans in late June. Information and results will be posted on the Library website.
»Make the Most of Research Time
One student told us “it was the best thing ever!” Make an appointment with a reference librarian to discuss the resources that would be most helpful for your project. It's a great opportunity to air your research concerns, find out what research materials are available, and learn how best to use them. Students, faculty, and staff may schedule these. The Reference Department offers Quick Consultations, a brief 15-20 minute session, and Research Conferences, a half-hour to one-hour session covering resources for a thesis, dissertation, or major project. Government Documents and the Blommer Science Library also offer appointments. For more information about how we can help, go to the Library's Research and Reference Help page. If you need more specific assistance on a research subject, particularly for higher level undergraduate or graduate research, please feel free to contact one of our bibliographers.
