14. PARTICIPATORY DESIGN

15. 1. Where did you get the idea for your research project? 2. How did you get started? 3. The last two or three times you have been able to work on it, what have you done? 4. What has been easiest about doing the project? 5. What has been hardest? 6. Have you been able to work on this project in a sustained way? 7. What library resources have you used on this project? Did you use those resources online or in a library facility?

17. Similarities and differences

18. Importance of the libraries  Same  High demand for books and online resources  Reliance on getting info from other libraries (ILL, formal and informal contacts, physical visits)  Different  Local needs for added services beyond content

19. Using their own library in person  Same  Faculty are not there very much  But they still have strong opinions about the library space  Different  Different reasons for not being in the library (noisy, get away from students, cannot spread out, cannot leave their books and papers)

20. Using their own library’s online resources  Same  Can access from anywhere (though always possibility of trouble with remote access)  Resources available online through any of the four will not be sufficient, they will always need something more  Different  Not as easy at each institution to get remote access  Number of databases  Varied understanding of what kind of support it takes to get these resources

21. Getting access to additional resources  Same  Getting help from colleagues and friends to get things from another library  Getting access from a previous job or fellowship or second job  Some get access to local resources (such as public libraries or academic libraries but another institution)  Different  Local resources are very different  Dependence on their institutional libraries varies

22. If money were no object… (What they would wish for)  Same  More content, more resources, more online, more books  More time  More money  Research assistance  Different  Provide service to the public  Management of personal citations and resources

23. Was it worth the time and effort?  Gained new information about how faculty do their research and use resources  Gained insight on AMICAL’s current and potential role Developed implementation ideas (faculty “training,” additional tools, greater access to targeted resources) Built better relationships between librarians and faculty Learned how to do interviews Enriched vision of the future library
