The first professors of chemistry and physics, medicine, geology, philosophy, modern literature, education, economics, zoology, veterinary science and agriculture were Scots. Three Scots held the philosophy chair for 66 years between 1890 and 1963. Many Scots contributed, in differing ways, to the development of the University Library.

Xu, Jesse; Choi, Crystal; Arndell, Michael To prepare students for prosperous careers, students from all disciplines need to adapt to emerging trends in technologies, such as 3D-Printing, Digital Media, and Virtual Reality, and have the confidence to apply these technologies into unique and novel settings (Nguyen et al., 2020; Harvey, 2016; Hasenstein et al., 2019). A limitation in tertiary education is the ability for individual disciplines to provide the required support and opportunities to venture beyond course content and embrace multidisciplinary, creative, and innovative technologies (Tabarés and Boni, 2022). To resolve these barriers, the University of Sydney Library established a team of postgraduate students as Peer Learning Advisors to support their student peers (Collings et al., 2014). The development of the Library Technology Spaces, ThinkSpace and CreateSpace (The University of Sydney Library, 2022), allowed students to experiment in technologies using the expertise of Peer Learning Advisors to experiment in technologies. Since then, academics have approached the Library to collaborate on bespoke workshops embedded within the curriculum. Such examples include involving students to create podcasts to develop health communication skills using audio equipment and peer-led workshops in audio editing in a Population Health unit (Dunsmore and Di Paolo, 2021), and the incorporation of peer-to-peer workshops in 3D-printing and modelling to develop student understanding in fabrication in assistive technologies for disabilities. This model of a collaborative approach between student leaders and academics can be applied to all tertiary institutions in resolving current barriers to accessibility to innovative and creative technologies that fall beyond the scope of individual disciplines.

It is now evident that students graduating from university must develop capability in navigating generative AI to drive innovation, solve complex problems, and shape the future in an increasingly AI-driven world. This presentation will outline the incorporation of students as partners in the co-creation of an online educational resource about generative AI tools (https://bit.ly/students-ai); and in doing so, providing students with the capability to navigate this emerging technology.

Tertiary institutions are traditionally limited to provide support and opportunities for students to venture beyond course content and embrace multidisciplinary, creative, and innovative technologies. To resolve these barriers, we report on how Library Technology Spaces have allowed students from all disciplines to experiment on makerspaces technologies to develop digital capabilities in an extra-curricular environment. Consequently, academics have approached the Library to incorporate technology as a part of Information and Digital Literacy and collaborate on bespoke learning experiences embedded within the curriculum. These examples include involving students to use professional podcasting studios to create podcasts, and thereby developing information and digital literacy and health communication skills in a Population Health unit. Furthermore, the incorporation of peer-to-peer workshops in 3D-printing and modelling to develop student understanding in fabrication in assistive technologies for disabilities.

The intent is to engage with the library and its users, to bring the print workshop to life, to draw inspiration from the library's collection and to create a publication for the Artists’ Book Collection within Rare Books & Special Collections.In an era of instant layout, digital word processing and electronic publishing what does the slow and laborious process of letterpress printing bring to a twenty-first century academic library? This residency demonstrates that understanding the process of making a publication can be just as vital and alive as the content of that publication - one letter at a time.

In 2019, the Library undertook a cultural audit involving 24 Library staff, 19 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander University of Sydney academic and professional staff, and 25 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. The audit took stock of the areas of cultural competence strength within Library practice, and areas for improvement. The results, together with secondary research on sectoral best practice, informed the development of The University of Sydney Library Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultural Protocols. The Protocols aim to guide Library staff in promoting culturally safe practices across services, spaces and resources. Through the implementation of the Protocols, we will work to ensure that all staff, students and community members with whom we interact feel safe, respected and valued. As a site of knowledge production and custodian of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges, and the knowledges of other First Nations peoples, we are mindful of Indigenous Cultural Intellectual Property (ICIP) and encourage ethical use of the First Nations cultural knowledge and culturally appropriate research practices.

We collaborated with teaching staff to deliver standardised feedback and learning materials to students, combining several educational technologies in use at the University. We discuss our pilot through three lenses: technology, collaboration and evaluating impact. Key findings include that technology affords opportunities for student support however integration issues can complicate the streamlining of workflows. Moreover, it is not possible for non-embedded library staff to align technologies with pedagogy and learning outcomes. Collaborations between library and teaching staff include a shared understanding of the value of referencing as an ethical practice. Teaching staff, however, may be unable to deliver referencing feedback in a way that is consistent with an externally designed initiative. When evaluating the impact of our pilot we found that students often display a lack of understanding about the role of feedback in their learning. Recommendations include that teaching staff should drive the use of technologies within their units of study, and that instructionally designed feedback planning is key in delivering consistent feedback, developing student feedback literacy and in supporting referencing as ethical practice.

At the University of Sydney Library, demand for systematic review support had reached unsustainable levels, and a reimagining of our service model was necessary. This paper documents our journey in using ‘service design thinking’ to develop a user-centred systematic review service. Using design thinking methods, we conducted user research to build empathy and understand the systematic review process from the user’s perspective. Using the principles of service design, we examined systematic review support holistically and reconsidered library services as part of a wider service ecology. We developed a suite of resources, including a service charter and an online, self-service toolkit. We also launched a systematic review mentoring program to increase the number of librarians able to deliver the service. By bringing design thinking and service design together, we were able to examine an old problem from a new vantage point. Through this process we discovered the transformational power of service design thinking and developed new solutions for our local context. We encourage other libraries to also embrace service design thinking to reimagine their own services from a new perspective.

User-centred approaches require the development of disciplinary expertise and engagement with the research culture of a particular subject area. This paper details the author’s experiences in situating his practice within the discipline of pharmacy and discusses some of the challenges around the scale and sustainability of such specialised support. Regardless of the extent to which a librarian is ‘embedded’, they must see themselves as learners, too, as they develop their understanding of the disciplines they support through an ongoing process of experiencing, reflecting, conceptualising and testing in their practice.

In 2016, new training on spreadsheet curation was introduced at the University of Sydney to address a gap between practical software skills training and generalised research data management training. The approach to spreadsheet curation behind the training was defined and the training’s distinction from other spreadsheet curation training offering described. The uptake of and feedback on the training were evaluated. Training attendance was analysed by discipline and by role. Quantitative and qualitative feedback were analysed and discussed. Feedback revealed that many attendees had been expecting and desired practical spreadsheet software skills training. Issues relating to whether or not practical skills training should and can be integrated with curation training were discussed. While attendees were found to be predominantly from science disciplines, qualitative feedback suggests that humanities attendees have specific needs in relation to managing data with spreadsheets that are currently not being met. Feedback also suggested that some attendees would prefer the curation training to be delivered as a longer, more in depth, hands on workshop. The impact of the training was measured using data collected from the University’s Research Data Management Planning (RDMP) tool and the Sydney eScholarship Repository. RDMP descriptions of spreadsheet data and records of tabular datasets published in the repository were analysed and assessed for quality and for accompanying data documentation. No significant improvements in data documentation or quality were found, however it is likely too soon after the launch of the training program to have seen much in the way of impact. Identified next steps include clarifying the marketing material promoting the training to better communicate the curation focus, investigating the needs of humanities researchers working with qualitative data in spreadsheets, and incorporating new material into the training in order to address those needs. Integrating curation training with practical skills training and modifying the training to be more hands on are changes that may be considered in future, but will not be implemented at this stage.

Publication of data resulting from the research is increasingly a requirement of funding. Equally important is data transparency and the ability for researchers to access data in order to test the validity and reliability of the research outputs and methods; to reinterpret and reuse data, thereby adding value to publicly funded research; and, ultimately, to access the data in the longer term. By its very nature, research in the visual arts is highly complex and varied, often comprising a wide variety of outputs and formats that present researchers, information managers, and technology teams with many discipline-specific issues. Examples include sketch books, paintings, architectural plans and buildings, physical artifacts, and complex modelling algorithms. Additionally, the methods and processes that generate this type of research information are just as varied and complex. Research in the visual arts relies heavily on sketchbooks, logbooks, journals, and workbooks. Alongside this data, a wide range of related research documentation and protocols (such as “how-to guides” and methodology reports) are also created. The physical nature of research in the arts presents researchers and curators with significant problems with security and preservation issues while also greatly increasing the risk of data loss and deterioration. Issues arise, for example, in the field of architecture. When data is locked up in the physical building that has been created as the output, how can this information be preserved and managed?
