To do so, HSCL piloted the use of two “HappyOrNot” customer satisfaction machines to conduct a DEI needs assessment, with the purpose of exploring the DEI-related issues facing library patrons. keywords: assessment; dei; fall; florida; happyornot; health; library; patrons; positive; questions; responses; team; university; week cache: hypothesis-25262.pdf plain text: hypothesis-25262.txt item: #45 of 101 id: hypothesis-25277 author: Dean, Will title: Some Like it Quiet: Using a Heatmap to Study Space Use in a Health Sciences Library date: 2023 words: 1744 flesch: 59 summary: Gullikson, S, Meyer, K.

In order to encourage OER usage, library resources and staff work to overcome this barrier, as well as other commonly articulated barriers to adoption, such as difficulty in locating appropriate resources or concerns about quality.14,16,17Libraries also often administer grant programs and/or provide access to platforms to enable the creation of resources.11 Research shows that these initiatives result in a higher adoption of OER resources.18 OER in health sciences Many case studies provide an overview of OER initiatives or analyze the impact of OER in academic courses (e.g., see the Open Education Group bibliography).19 However, few articles study OER specifically in the health sciences context. keywords: education; faculty; health; health sciences; initiatives; internet; library; musc; oer; resources; sciences; students; support; textbook; vcu; wvu cache: hypothesis-27410.pdf plain text: hypothesis-27410.txt item: #70 of 101 id: hypothesis-27432 author: Samuel, Sara title: Preparing for the New NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy: Outreach & Engagement date: 2023 words: 651 flesch: 52 summary: The author spent approximately 30 hours in Data Team meetings, updating the LibGuide, presenting, and evaluating DMS Plans.
