----
*Random meeting topics for the future:*
* Instruction assessment pilot discussion \-\- how to play that out for long-term sustainability (Jan/Feb \-\- Angie, Mark, Lisa)
* Assess whether people are watching videos and find them useful? Improve the live capture in DIRC: ok to have short shelf life; things we can do to improve quality? Low cost? Link to them in more locations? Statistics?
* Lisa shows us how to use Zoomerang.
* discuss organizing a library wide system of sharing information learned at meetings / conferences
* updating the instruction toolkit ([http://libstaff.mit.edu/instruction/toolkit/bibliography.html])
* RISG web based repository of instruction material
* Ask Us Page - currently, the information is presented in terms of how the user wants to get in touch with us. Should we revise this so that emphasis is on subject selector page?
* Instruction Plan - contains several projects. Among the most pressing are a repository of instructional materials and an assessment survey that needs to be completed by IAP for people to give users. Peter will review the plan and pull out other action items and put them on wiki. \[I believe we completed this already, didn't we? \-Lisa\]
* Spring Seminar Planning \-\- Consider having a philosophical discussion related to instruction; base on work instruction assessment team began? (Lisa, Mark, Angie)
* Reference Statistics Tool - reconsider stats in terms of sampling, in terms of tool that Sands might create. Lisa needs to follow up with Mackenzie/Steve.
* Checklist of things we always have to do (IAP coordinator, etc)
* Next Assessment Plan
* Establish list that lays out ownership of certain projects (virtual reference pages, instruction pages, wiki, etc)
* Bibliographic software support - we need to articulate what our role is. A statement about what support is available from the Libraries, and distribute it across system.
* IAP Survey and Reference Manual - both should be discussed at next meeting. We agreed that we will need task forces for both. Georgiana volunteered to work on the reference manual. Angie volunteered for the IAP Survey. Reference manual (revisit after system-wide documentation org project is done)
* Changes to submission Form for IAP Events - Angie will check with Alex Caracuzzo about this.
* Think about getting rid of Barton Basics & Information Navigator, if information is duplicated in video tutorials. |
