Welcome from Our Host Greetings from the Evangel University Library Director We’re so pleased to host this year’s Annual Conference and welcome each and every one of you to our campus. This year’s theme, “Connecting…,” holds special significance for us at Evangel – it speaks to our highest calling to connect with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, but also within our Library Services as we strive to help our students and faculty make the connections they need in their academic studies. It also speaks to the heritage of transportation in Springfield, from the old wagon factory, the Frisco Railroad, Ozark Airlines, and Old Route 66 – the Mother Road – and how it was one of the first interstate roads to help Americans make their connections. In Christ, Woodvall Moore

Tentative Presentations


Tim Fleck Coming Out of the Shadows: Lighting in Libraries (Woollen, Molzan and

Partners Inc.) Few aspects of library design impact patrons more directly than lighting. This workshop will look at the many options for improving the quality of lighting in new and existing spaces, including recent technological advances.

Ruth Elder Connecting with Library Science Students through an Internship

One way to encourage MLS students is to work with them on a one-on-one basis. This workshop will share the experience of Taylor University - Fort Wayne in having a SLIS student as an intern for two semesters. The process of obtaining an intern, as well as the joys, rewards, and sometimes frustrations, will be presented.

Beryl Pagan Got Mold?

Introductory This presentation will describe a major mold outbreak at Point Loma Nazarene University’s Ryan Library in the summer and fall of 2003, including: identifying mold; risk to materials; effects on collections, personnel, and service; how to handle an outbreak; working with outside help (from campus environmental personnel and mold remediation consultants); and maintaining effective library service while dealing with an outbreak.

Susan Watkins Connecting with your Local Library Community

In the current climate of doing more with less, have you explored cooperative ventures outside your library and campus? In your local area, there may be opportunities to share resources, make consortial arrangements, or cooperate to streamline catalog or technical services. Come to hear about one library’s experiences using state and regional cooperative arrangements to access resources, expand programming, and save money.

Jule Kind Connecting to the Students You Never See Introductory

If your library anticipates providing services to distance students but you are unsure of how to go about it or what the issues really are, this workshop is for you. We will talk about the structure of the department, working with administrators, which statistics to keep, and other topics.

Barbara Nelson Tools for Connecting Users to Resources: Beginning CPI Indexing

This workshop is designed for those who might be interested in volunteering to index for The Christian Periodical Index, as well as for those who have been indexing a year or so and need a refresher. It will include basic instruction in beginning indexing, assigning subject headings, and completing the appropriate templates.

Lori Thornton Connecting with Humans in an Information Age

In an age of electronic library services, librarians are often frustrated by their failure to reach out to the patron and provide a more personal touch. Come explore and discuss ways that libraries and librarians are seeking to achieve more personalized services with technology.

Steve Baker Connecting in the Fast Lane: Collaborating with the Campus Web Developer This workshop will explore the benefits and challenges of collaborating with your campus webmaster. Projects in

qualitative assessment and fundraising will be demonstrated.

Gregory A. Smith Connecting People and Purpose: A Christian Theory of Library Leadership

This workshop will present a theory of library leadership that integrates biblical principles with professional wisdom. Since Christian leadership is based on a motivation to serve others rather than occupying a position of authority, this session will apply to any librarian who wishes to become a better leader – not merely to those who hold (or aspire to hold) administrative positions.

Don Smeeton Librarians Connecting to the Academic Enterprise

Intermediate We know librarians are essential to the educational process, but when faculty of Lee University were asked about their perception of the library and librarians, the results were ambiguous but troubling. The results suggest that we must do a better job of connecting to the academic process and promoting that connection, and that the discussion must move beyond the issue of "faculty status."

Steve Baker Connecting with our Users: Measuring Service Quality on a Dime

This workshop will examine trends in the assessment of service quality in the academic world, and will outline the main currents behind the development of customer satisfaction surveys within higher education, with an in-depth demonstration of one library’s service quality assessment instrument and a discussion of its effectiveness.

Tony Garrett Connecting Instruction to Your Students: Can Active Instruction Really Work? Introductory This workshop will define active learning and how it can be used in library instruction. The workshop will also

present survey results of one year of active learning in library instruction at Baptist Bible College.

Ron Jordahl Reviews: Where Readers and Writers Meet Beginning and seasoned writers will benefit from tips on how to write reviews. This workshop will provide a how-

to approach in acquiring review copies, evaluating books, and crafting reviews.

Tentative Presentations

Sarah George Connecting Journals to the Rest of the Library

Libraries continue to search for the best practices for journal access – A-Z lists on web pages, inclusion in the online catalog, or new services such as an OpenURL server. This workshop will help public and technical services librarians understand the issues and move forward with managing their own print and electronic serials collections.

Linda Jones A Blogging Odyssey: Connecting through Online Journaling Come and map a voyage through the highways and byways of blogging. Listen as those who took the blogging

challenge share their experiences and learn how to set up or improve your blog or blogs at little or no extra cost.

Rory Patterson Connecting Ethics to Action: An Introduction to Ethical Decision Making Introductory This session will define Ethical Decision Making (EDM) and explain how EDM can be used to transmit an

institution's ethics into action. A time of discussion towards application will be encouraged.

Jon Sparks Connecting to Today’s “Millennial” Students

The attitudes and behaviors of Millennial students (born 1982-2004) represent a sharp break from Generation X, and are running exactly counter to trends launched by the Boomers. Millennials’ personality characteristics will provide tremendous challenges for higher education and implications for the classroom and library services.

Roger Phillips Connecting Detective Stories with Christianity

This workshop will look at a brief history of detective stories since the apocryphal story “Susanna and the Elders,” which has often received the credit for being the oldest detective story; identify modern Christian writers of detective stories; and discuss topics such as whether there is such a thing as a Christian detective story, and whether a story written by a Christian about a non-Christian detective is a Christian detective story.

Peggy Martin Connecting Patrons to Free Internet Databases Introductory or Intermediate This workshop explores the abundance of free databases and other resources available on the web. The session

will show how these sixty or seventy helpful tools can assist in reference work with patrons.

Panel: Jasmine Vaughan, Facilitator

Preparing to Launch or Change your Library Career & Keeping a Professional Portfolio

Hear what people who make hiring decisions are looking for, and learn from the experiences of those who have recently changed positions within librarianship. Review methods for maintaining a professional portfolio and vita.

Panel: Steve Baker, Dr. Bill Nelson, Stan Terhune

Connecting Quality with Standards: Assessment Measures for the Academic Library

The panelists will outline the essential benefits/challenges of specific assessment tools (i.e., service quality, peer comparison ratios, and standards) followed by moderated discussion of questions from the audience.

Panel: Lindsay Van Sicklen, Tami Robinson, Demystifying the Tenure Process

Barbara Nelson

The tenure process holds a lot at stake for the candidate. In an effort to demystify it, the panel will discuss questions about tenure review, the process of tenure review and how to prepare for it, a supervisor's perspective of a candidate up for tenure review, and examples of tenure portfolios.

Panel: Tami Robinson, Greg Smith, The Integration of Faith and Learning: Perspectives on the Librarian’s Role

John Thompson

In addition to considering faith-discipline integration as a core element and the vocational aspect of Christian librarianship, panelists will suggest ways to carry out typical library functions (e.g., collection management, bibliographic control, reference, and instruction) to support patrons' integration efforts.

Roundtable: Connecting the Gospel and Reality via Fiction LeAnne Hardy,

Facilitator How can Christians effectively convey faith without limiting their fiction to church audiences? This repeat of last year’s roundtable will look at principles of effective fiction writing as well as recent developments among Christian writers.

Paper: Joseph Schneider Christian Virtues and Librarianship: Promote the Good of Our Patrons

This paper will discuss how love of neighbor and our duty to serve others for the sake of their own good provide a foundation for seeing librarianship as a special vocation. Biblical passages will be examined as well as reflections on the rights and goods necessary for human flourishing.

Amount Due: Statement of Faith We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe the Bible in its original writings to be the only infallible authoritative Word of God. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in his personal and visible return in power and glory.

We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he was tempted by Satan and fell, and that, because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for salvation. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life, and by Whom the Church is empowered to carry out Christ’s great commission. We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost, those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
