We are excited to announce Meet the Editors with ASIS&T on April 17 at 6 PM PT. Come chat with us and ARCHEOTA!

Getting published for the first time can seem overwhelming, particularly for new student researchers. This panel aims to help students understand the process from submission to final acceptance that papers undergo. Editors will share information about their publications and provide insight into how best to succeed in publishing with them. We encourage you to bring your questions or submit them to us before the event. This event will be recorded.

Image with Norman Mooradian's photo and a summary of his article, Knowledge Ethics: Conceptual Preliminaries Scope and Justification. This paper lays out the conceptual groundwork for a long-term project examining ethical issues raised when addressing the value of knowledge to a knowledge economy. The project includes a series of papers on specific topics that interrelate to the subjects of knowledge, ethics and organizations. While some of the planned articles for the project will have a practical focus, others, such as this one, will be conceptual in nature. The following outlines selected key concepts for an ethics of knowledge and their relationship with cognate areas of inquiry and practice.

🚀 "Escape velocity represents the intellectual ‘breaking free’ of the gravitational pull of current scholarship in library and information science and the charting of new vistas, identification of new questions, and the proposal of new answers as we advance our knowledge and insights about what comes next."

Infographic outlining the 4 steps in a successful literature review: search & discovery, analysis, synthesis, and the turn.

Search & Discovery: Identify the best search terms, vocabulary, and descriptors for a particular topic; searches of title words from relevant works; searching by author; mining footnotes and endnotes of pertinent works; book reviews; and other published literature reviews.

Analysis: Researchers must identify the core question and the author’s thesis as the single, overarching answer to this core question.

Synthesis: The process of comparing, contrasting, distilling, and compressing essential components of relevant scholarship into analytical categories. This step in reaching escape velocity marks a significant difference between a literature review and an annotated bibliography.

The Turn: That moment in a literature review in which the author swiftly characterizes all of the current and relevant scholarship in a brief and sweeping statement, before separating from it and launching off into articulating a new and original core question.

We're starting a new blog series called TBR - To Be Reviewed where we highlight new LIS literature that we think would make good book review submissions for the SRJ! Today's pick is Academic Librarian Burnout: Causes and Responses.

You can read the summary on the blog: https://ischoolblogs.sjsu.edu/info/srjstudentresource/2023/10/18/tbr-academic-librarian-burnout-causes-and-responses/

How have you coped with burnout as an MLIS student or library professional? Please share your tips!
