ACRL/NY Graduate Services Discussion Group (GSDG)

Save the date! The next ACRL/NY Graduate Services Discussion Group (GSDG) meeting will take place at the Bard Graduate Center on May 14 at3pm

During this meeting we will discuss several reports that have been published on the research behavior of graduate students specifically and upper level researchers in general. As librarians who work with graduate students what can we learn from these recent reports and how can we structure our outreach, reference, and instruction services to reflect this new information.

Prior to the meeting be sure to read:

Researchers of Tomorrow: The research behavior of Generation Y doctoral students (a joint study commission by JISC and the British Library)

Supporting Humanities Doctoral Student Success: A Collaborative Project between Cornell University Library and Columbia University Libraries

Other recent studies include:

Supporting the Changing Research Practices of Chemists (Ithaka S&R)

Supporting the Changing Research Practices of Historians (Ithaka S&R)

Transitioning to a Digital World: Art History, Its Research Centers, and Digital Scholarship (Kress Foundation and Roy Rosenweig Center)

This meeting is open to ACRL/NY members. If you are not a member of ACRL/NY join now!
