After considering several commercial and open source alternatives,
the task force recommends two applications –Symplectic Elements
and VIVO.
Together, the products will enable a streamlined approach for
faculty management of professional information; fast and flexible
response to external inquiries; easy identification of people with
specific expertise for proposal preparation or media interviews;
maintenance of accurate, current faculty CVs and web pages; and
high level management analysis of GT research trends, strengths,
and weaknesses.
A task force led by Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI)
Director of Enterprise Systems Raj Vuchatu drafted the Campuswide Faculty Profile System proposal. Members of the team represent
the Library, GTRI, Office of Information Technology, Ivan Allen The profile system will serve as a central repository, capturing
College, and Office of Sponsored Programs. For nearly one year, they faculty research and scholarly activities information from external
researched software solutions that would make GT’s research and data sources. This information includes scholarly publications (e.g.,
scholarly enterprise visible and accessible online to the entire Institute. articles, conference papers, and books), as well as patents, grants,
professional accomplishments, and teaching. It will simplify
the import of faculty publications into Georgia Tech’s full-text
institutional repository, SMARTech.
Graduate Communications
Certificate
The presentation and analysis of this data will create a
comprehensive view of GT’s research portfolio at all levels:
individual, school, college, center, topic area or custom
aggregations of these feeds. In addition, the system will provide
expertise searching and professional networking capabilities.
The system should also reduce repetitive data entry burdens
on faculty by providing a reporting feature for activity reports,
sponsor-required resumes, promotion and tenure packages, etc.
According to the committee’s proposal, such a system has the
potential to improve the management and execution of research
at GT while reducing the administrative burden placed on
researchers. For more information about the Campus-wide Faculty Profile
System proposal, contact Raj Vuchatu, Director of IT, Research
Administration in the Executive Vice President for Research
office. View from the Library

A NOTE FROM THE DEAN
As I write this, there are two architects standing below my window making
sketches of the space and buildings on the north side of Price Gilbert Library.
The Institute’s plan is to create Gilbert Grove, an inviting open space for the
Georgia Tech community to use at the heart of campus.
Inside the Library, we recently completed a 2020 plan for the renovation of the
two library buildings, Price Gilbert and Crosland Tower. The plan features new
collaborative spaces for students and faculty, specifically a faculty and graduate
student commons on the third and fourth floor. Our goal is to creatively
transform the Library as the needs of the campus change.
I hope you enjoy this issue of “View from the Library” that highlights new
services, including the Institute wide faculty profile system and a variety of new
developments in Clough and the Library. The tremendous success of the recent
Clough Art Crawl encourages us to do more cultural programming in 2012.
As always, we welcome your feedback and suggestions for ways we can serve
you better in your academic pursuits. Clough Art Crawl

to capitalize on the synergies of each unit.
“The strategic plan is clear in its emphasis on students
and excellence in our educational programs. Each of
our decisions was guided by input received during the
review process and by the educational mission and goals
articulated in the strategic plan, including the pursuit
of institutional effectiveness,” said Bras. “Above all, we
seek to serve the best interests of students, faculty and
the staff who support them.”
The reorganization places a stronger emphasis
on student needs through excellence in teaching,
learning, and educational technology while providing
a more seamless educational experience. These changes
were prompted by feedback from an internal review by key
stakeholders, which called for a flatter organization focused on
the needs of students and faculty, as well as greater operational
coordination and consistency across the units.
To this end, Dean Catherine Murray-Rust was named as
Vice Provost for Learning Excellence (VPLE) and Dean
of Libraries. She now oversees accreditation reporting and
academic program review.
Donna Llewellyn, Director of CETL, became Associate
Vice Provost of Learning Excellence (AVPLE). Llewellyn is
charged with defining the standard of excellence for teaching
and learning by promoting pedagogical best practices and
supporting faculty, instructors, and teaching assistants as
educators.

ESTABLISHES GEORGIA TECH LIBRARY
ASERL PROGRAM
AS CENTER OF EXCELLENCE
The Georgia Tech Library has joined the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries
Collaborative Federal Depository Program (CFDP), as a Center of Excellence in the areas of
NASA, EPA, and Patent and Trademarks.
The U.S. Federal Depository Library Program provides more than 1,250 libraries nationwide
with federal information from all three branches of government. In many cases, this
information is currently inaccessible to citizens because it is only available in print form and/
or is not entered in the library catalog. The CFDP seeks to make government documents that
are five or more years old more accessible to U.S. citizens.
The CFDP plans to create comprehensive collections of U.S. government information from
each Federal government agency. Each collection will be based on the foundation of the
Library’s existing holdings.
While the Library holds a wide range of government documents, the collection is especially
robust in the areas of NASA, EPA, and Patent and Trademarks. In order to have a
comprehensive collection in these three areas, the Library will actively replace damaged or
lost pieces, fill holes in the collections, provide active collection preservation and digitization,
catalog and archive current material, and participate in the Association of Southeastern
Research Libraries union catalog (Kudzu) and ILL/Document Delivery agreements.
“There is going to be a long process of cataloging and digitizing print material, but the end
result will mean more material for faculty and students to use for research,” said Bruce Henson,
Interim Associate Dean of the Library.
NEW FOR 2012
GRADUATE COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATE PROGRAM AT GT
The new Graduate Communication Certificate Program is sponsored by the Graduate
Student Government Association and the Library’s Faculty Engagement Department, in
collaboration with the Communication Center, the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching
and Learning Career Services, and Communications & Marketing.
The goal of the program is to provide an avenue for Georgia Tech graduate students to enhance
their communication skills as they prepare for careers in industry, government and academia.
The program is consists of two components: a series of core and elective workshops, and
a capstone experience. The five core (required) workshops cover public speaking, the
communication process, CVs and resumes, communication ethics, and visual rhetoric.
The elective workshops include sessions on interviewing, the job talk, networking, writing
grants, writing literature reviews, research skills, software for communication, bibliographic
management, lesson planning, media management and promotion, and more. In total,
students choose eight elective workshops from two categories: Research and Professional
Communication Skills and Technical Tools for Communication.
The workshops help build written, oral, and visual communication competencies. The capstone
experience then provides an opportunity to effectively apply these competencies and receive
feedback from Georgia Tech communication specialists.
Details and online registration for both the program and the individual workshops are available
at http://gradcommcert.gatech.edu/about.php. For additional information, please contact the
Program Coordinator, Lori Critz, at lori.critz@library.gatech.edu or gradcommcert@lists.

GRADUATE LIBRARY ADVISORY BOARD
CAROL SENF
In response to the positive feedback gathered from the Library Faculty and Undergraduate Advisory Boards,
the Library Graduate Advisory Board (LGAB) launched this fall. The Board consists of 21 graduate students
from almost every graduate school across campus. During their inaugural semester, they met three times,
brainstorming on what they valued about the Library and what they hoped to see in the future. The Board met
with Collection Development Librarian Nancy Simons to discuss collection topics. In November, board members created mock-ups of their ideal graduate library space. They learned about valuable tools like Proxy Bookmark and LibX, the Library’s web localizer, which they then took back to show their departments.
LCC Professor and Associate Chair Dr. Carol Senf regularly incorporates materials from
the Georgia Tech Archives in her classes: LCC 3112 Evolution and the Industrial Age;
LCC 2100 Introduction to STAC; and GT1000.
FALL 2011 ACTIVITY REPORT
Based on input from LGAB, the Library Faculty Advisory Board and others, the Library will be changing
on-campus access to library resources. Once this new process is in place, on-campus access to e-journals and
databases will no longer require authentication. On-campus IP addresses will be automatically recognized and
accepted. Off-campus or remote access will still require users to log in. Look for this exciting change this summer.
The LGAB will meet three more times this spring. Near the end of the semester, the Library will send out a
call for 2012-2013 school year participants.
NEW ACQUISITIONS
ADDITIONS TO THE LIBRARY DATABASES AND E-JOURNALS
Thanks to Provost Rafael Bras, additional funds were allocated to the Library in order to address annual serial
and database price increases and faculty requests for new resources.
In addition to the previously announced accession of supplemental Nature titles and JSTOR collections, the
Library added a number of other resources. The following are a sample of the resources acquired using the
Provost’s funding:
Databases: ISI Web of Science Proceedings, Computing Reviews, Philosopher’s Index, and a Bloomberg
terminal in the Library
Journals: 66 new journal titles, including The Chronicle of Higher Education Online, Foundations and Trends
in Human-Computer Interaction, Journal of Cognitive Engineering and Decision Making, Science Express, and
Science Signaling
E-books: ASM Handbook Online, Chicago Manual of Style Online, SIAM E-book Package, Springer
Engineering E-book Collection
Back Files: AIAA Meeting Papers Archive (1963-1995), INFORMS Journal Archive (1952-1997),
LOCUS: SIAM’s Online Journal Archive (1952-1996)
The Library’s Collection Development Department maintains a database of requests for new resources. Please
continue to send requests for new resources to your subject librarian to be considered for purchase when
additional funding becomes available.
ARCHIVES IN THE CLASSROOM
Nine years ago, the former head of the Georgia Tech Archives mentioned some of
their archival materials to Senf. This prompted Senf to incorporate the GT Archives
into some of her classes. According to Senf, working in the Archives provides valuable
opportunities for students by requiring them to draw their own conclusions from primary
source materials instead of simply relying on professionally prepared research. This
hands-on approach is a key element in learning for millennial students. Senf notes that
while the best students enjoy the work and conducting their own research, everyone
benefits from using original materials and creating their own research. The entire class
enjoys the findings presented during final presentations.
Senf wrote an article about using the Archives titled “Using the University Archives to
Demonstrate Real Research,”Changing English: Studies in Culture and Education.” In
it, she states that because of the students’ work in the archives, “the past comes alive for
students and they come to appreciate the value of examining primary documents and
discussing their findings with classmates.”
Senf uses the Archives to help
students relate their coursework to
local examples, particularly Atlanta
and Georgia Tech, thereby creating
a connection between the readings
and the students and making history
relatable.
“Using the Archives requires
careful planning and a
willingness to accept all kinds of
different projects,” Senf noted.
Class assignments range from written
reports and oral presentations to blogs. Senf provides possible topics but permits other
ideas, allowing students to choose a topic of interest to them. This has resulted in diverse
research and projects covering the gamut from campus architecture to the lack of safety
measures and equipment in early sports teams.
“Using the Archives requires careful planning and a willingness to accept all kinds of
different projects,” Senf noted.
In the Tech Archives, holdings include unique materials related to the history of the
institution, architectural drawings, and textiles mills in the Southeast. The Archives also
houses special collections, including rare books related to science and technology, and a
large science fiction collection used by many students both for classes and for personal
use.
Those interested in including an in-class archival component should plan to meet with
the Head of Archives, Jody Thompson, to verify that the types of materials necessary for
project topics are available.
