Integrating Libraries and Electronic Publishing The DART Project at Columbia University David Millman and Kate Wittenberg

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#2 Educational Mission To help undergraduate students gain insight into the way in which anthropologists conduct research and draw conclusions Improve information literacy of undergraduate anthropology students through use of structured yet unfiltered digital resources

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#3 E-Publishing Mission To develop a digital library infrastructure that will store digital resources so that they can be used in flexible ways To catalogue digital assets embedded within complex learning tools so that they can be used for broader research and/or teaching goals

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#4 Case 1:The Ethnographic Imagination The teaching module contains a digitized selection of author’s field notes and published book Students read both sets of materials and write about the process of transforming the notes into an ethnography Increasing understanding of how knowledge is created from data

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#5 Case 2: Intro to South Asian Culture Online syllabus that links to catalogued digital assets (primary texts, maps, photos, video) Teacher builds class assignments around these assets (response to questions, essays on readings, and full research paper) Increasing levels of interaction with library materials throughout the semester

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#6 Digital Teaching Tools and Research Library Resources Focus on the relationship between the “closed” world of the classroom and teaching tools, and the “open” world of the Web Can students explore freely the vast array of research tools available through the Web, while still having an appropriate level of guidance concerning how to select and evaluate the sources that they find?

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#7 Unlimited Information as Benefit or Obstacle to Learning How do we make information meaningful to users with diverse skills and needs? Future work will explore how to find the right balance between directed and unfiltered presentation of digital teaching and research materials in electronic publications

Wittenberg/Millman—2005 April—#8 Technology Accommodate different styles for teaching –fall ’04 (South Asian History & Culture): web browser focus (syllabus navigation) –spring ’05 (Ethnographic Imagination): digital resource focus (primary source navigation) –fall ’05 (planning): considering mobile device in DL discovery & retrieval Web services import/export Access management Metadata: “versions” revisited
