Reframing Liaisonship: Moving Towards Quality User Engagement Resnis, Eric; Natale, Jennifer As librarianship continues to evolve, the roles of the liaison librarian have also changed considerably. So, what are the priorities for an effective liaison? This program will detail our institution's reframing of liaison work, focusing on user engagement and how we better foster quality liaisonship as a result.

Capitalizing on University Resources for Easy and Economical Information Literacy Assessment Resnis, Eric ePortfolios continue to gain strength in higher education as a viable and relatively quick method for assessment of student work. Miami University (Oxford, OH) recently implemented Chalk & Wire as its ePortfolio system for the entire campus. The libraries have partnered with several departments to utilize ePortfolios for the assessment of information literacy skills. Student work from departments are automatically forwarded to a team of librarians that assess the work using a revised version of the information literacy rubric developed by the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U). What is unique about this process is that the artifacts are not tailored to the library or to the information literacy rubric. Now in its third year, this project has provided extremely valuable and robust data regarding the information literacy skills at Miami. It assists in developing a baseline for students, and helps us to see progression in information literacy as students move through the curriculum. The assessments have provided data on which classes need further assistance with research assignments, classes that need syllabi revised to better assist students in the research process, and has helped us to easily identify classes and assignments that can serve as a model to others.

Engagement, Effectiveness & Efficiency: Energize Your Personal Librarian Program Natale, Jennifer; Resnis, Eric Miami University Libraries created a Personal Librarian program to supplement our liaison system in support of student success and information literacy advancement. Our program was designed to integrate into university curriculum and build toward connections with subject librarians. The program was designed to be efficient by use of a project management tool and to be assessed by mostly existing data. Participants can expect to learn how a Personal Librarian program can be integrated into a first-year university course, how to utilize a project management tool to administer a program, and methods for assessment. Our target audience includes those who want to start a program or improve their program with new ideas and methods of assessment.
