Equity in Research Visibility: Improving Citation Justice and Discovery with Lean Library June 27, 2024
In today’s interconnected world, the Global South contributes a wealth of valuable resources. Unfortunately, many libraries’ methodologies and processes may unintentionally overlook these resources.Watch this insightful webinar, where we were delighted to be joined by John Barbrook from Lancaster University where we explored the concept of citation justice. This concept seeks to increase the citations of authors from the Global South by increasing the visibility and accessibility to open access resources and grey literature.

 

The wealth of literature that Google Scholar indexes means it is an excellent source to support diverse searching, however some find the interface has less functionality than other databases. See how Lean Library can facilitate access to openly available material and grey literature, enhancing access and facilitating routes to widening out scholarly output in under-represented areas.

Delivering LibGuides, Training & Guidance at Point of Need with Lean Library June 27, 2024
Libraries invest substantial time in creating and providing patrons with valuable training materials, that they want to see being used. However, driving patron awareness and usage can pose a challenge for many, as patrons are often forced to leave their workflows to access these materials.With Lean Library Workflow for LibGuides, libraries can seamlessly integrate Springshare LibGuides and other library training materials into their patrons’ workflows, increasing awareness and usage by delivering materials directly when and where needed, on any academic resource or website.

 

Watch our webinar where we delve into how Lean Library empowers libraries to increase the visibility of LibGuides and training materials. Gain insights from real-life success stories, such as Utah State University’s remarkable 450% increase in LibGuide usage was achieved through Lean Library’s integration of their LibGuides into their patrons’ workflows.

 

Librarians decide where and which LibGuides should be made available, providing vital support and guidance to students throughout their workflow without the need for a physical presence. Join us to uncover how Lean Library can revolutionize your library’s approach, making LibGuides more accessible and impactful for patrons.
