As course management systems have become a popular support to distance learning on campuses, integration of library presence into the courseware has had a challenging agenda to academic librarians. This challenge applies especially to those with related position titles, such as a Distance Learning Librarian. It has been recognized that academic librarians must seek to integrate their resources into online courses delivered via course management systems, in order to ensure that libraries continue to remain vital to higher education. Collaborations are crucial to ensure successful integration of the library into the course management system. The changing environment in higher education requires different approaches to be taken to the provision of professional support services. This may result in the development of outsourced shared services, the convergence of many different student-facing services or the development of more active collaborative networks. This book, Collaboration in Libraries and Learning Environments, reflects the changing context and broad principles affecting the ways in which we need to manage and provide services and offers case studies of changes that have already taken place. This book distinguishes and exposes the innovations that leaders and practitioners are implementing to transform and develop the provision of sustainable and creative support services. Such innovations are resulting in diverse models of service delivery and the development of more active collaborative networks and commercial partnerships.

The role of libraries has also been affected by merely being a resource center to service centers and more over a space designed to promote collaborative learning. When the latest technological and ICT developments challenge the very existence of Libraries and Librarians regarding MOOC''s, Online resources and Google respectively; turning these challenges into opportunities, doing a SWOT analysis of Librarianship and the skills we possess and redefining our roles have become inevitable. Thus the role of librarians has also changed from merely doing traditional routines of acquisition, classification, cataloging and so on to a blended librarian who now also supports in instruction design and works on Faculty-Librarian collaboration to facilitate the entire learning process. In the present era due to the advancement of ICT and growing virtual resources, the question is how to put these already existing resources to use, (thus the Open Learning Environment(OLE) Model) rather than just creating new resources and how to get your own crowd involved in the process (thus crowdsourcing). Through this research, the researcher would like to propose a model which would make learning effective in reduced time at the Library setup in context to the existing Institutional ethnography and learning barriers of the crowd at Atmiya.In this book an effort has been made by the researcher to give a detail about the case studies - in this case, the best practices the Atmiya Library in creating a crowd-based open learning environment at Library. The case studies list the details of the context; objective; practice details; impact and resources required. In many of these case studies, details of the impact study in the form of survey or narratives and testimonials are also provided. In a few case studies attempt has been made to give an account of lessons learned in the process for effective implementation of the practice. The case studies provide a broad view of the methods for delivering Learning opportunities and an environment for the same; developing a research culture and supporting innovation through collaborative efforts of Librarian- faculty collaboration; Case study on ILP provides details about planning the ILP for Teaching; for learning and for research purpose; and Learning commons case study gives the details of the Modern library facilities needed and its impact on usage.There are total seven case studies I have described for the practicing librarian who can implement the same for setting up Collaborative open learning environment in the library.I have also described the impact , practices , glimpses , resource required to implement the case studies based on the crowd we have.The aim was to make reading good books a natural, cultural practice in the State to make Gujarat a ''Well read'' society by creating the landscape and minds cape of the State thick with noble thoughts gleaned through reading."To create a win-win opportunity for the students and Library by helping students get hands-on work experience of applying their knowledge of the subject of Engineering in Library automation, development of new services like social media.

Libraries are exploring new roles and new partnerships on college campuses in order to improve students’ experiences and enable learning outside the classroom. But other than faculty members, who are librarians’ potential partners? The student affairs professionals are responsible for everything from residence halls to service learning to career exploration and make up one of the fastest growing groups in higher education - they are the experts in student development and the student experience. However, librarians and student affairs professionals are largely unfamiliar with each other's roles in student learning. By using multiple focus groups, Long describes the experiences and perceptions of librarians and student affairs professionals at several four-year, residential colleges and universities. He identifies ways librarians and student affairs professionals share common values and can approach partnerships successfully – but also the barriers that result when these two groups don’t fully understand each other’s roles in student learning. This book is the perfect road map for librarians and student affairs professionals alike who are seeking partners for campus collaborations.

Growing student numbers, increased student expectations, new approaches to learning, and fast-paced technological advances all contribute to the need for universities to take a more strategic approach to their buildings, including formal and informal learning spaces. Exploring Informal Learning Space in the University addresses the issue of informal learning space from the perspectives of a comprehensive range of stakeholders, including students, academics, facilities managers, university managers, IT managers, architects, interior designers, and librarians. With contributions from a range of experts, practitioners and academics around the world, this book uses a combination of case studies and theoretical discussion to explore the rationale and theory of informal learning space alongside the practicalities of its planning, development and utilization. The volume is at once ambitious and pragmatic, combining innovative thinking with a firm awareness of practicalities, including the varied constraints faced by universities and the need to work in tandem with broader strategies. Advocating broad collaboration at both planning and delivery stage, the result is essential reading for anyone involved in the delivery of learning space provision – from architects and designers, to university managers and strategists. It will also be of particular interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate students engaged in the study of library & information science or higher education policy and strategy.

The first in the IASL-Libraries Unlimited partnership series, this book features contributions written by authors from around the world about their effective collaboration experiences. Collaboration between teachers and school librarians is a topic that is often discussed in the quest for educational excellence, but the international perspective is something that is rarely explored. This text documents the collaboration endeavors in international school libraries and—drawing upon research and direct experience—demonstrates effective collaboration experiences in a range of countries. It also features selected brief case studies as well as several original essays on the topic of collaboration between teachers and teacher librarians in curriculum planning. The result of a joint effort between Libraries Unlimited and the International Association of School Librarianship (IASL), this book shows how collaboration with teachers looks in the international arena. It addresses topics such as collaborating for success with student searching, the roles of librarians and teachers in the research process, principal involvement, information literacy, inquiry-based learning, use of digital resources, models of collaboration for diversity, and evaluation of collaboration. Additionally, the current research findings presented will offer readers new insights into their profession.
