[book2.jpg]Stielow, Frederick J.  Reinventing the Library for Online Education.  Chicago: ALA, 2014. 020.2854678  ISBN978-0-8389-1208-9

Have changes such as cloud computing, search engines, the Semantic Web, and mobile applications rendered such long-standing academic library services and functions as special collections, interlibrary loans, physical processing, and even library buildings unnecessary? Can the academic library effectively reconceive itself as a virtual institution? Stielow, who led the library program of the online university American Public University System, argues most emphatically that it can. His comprehensive look at web-based academic libraries synthesizes the changes wrought by the Web revolution into a visionary new model, grounded in history as well as personal experience. He demonstrates how existing functions like cataloging, circulation, collection development, reference, and serials management can be transformed by entrepreneurship, human face/electronic communicator relations, web apps, and other innovations. Online education can ensure that libraries remain strong information and knowledge hubs, and his timely book:
*        Shows how the origins and history of the academic library have laid the foundation for our current period of flux
*        Identifies practices rooted in print-based storage to consider for elimination, and legacy services ready to be adapted to virtual operations
*        Discusses tools and concepts libraries will embrace in a networked world, including new opportunities for library relevance in bookstore/textbook operations, compliance, library/archival/museum functions, e-publishing, and tutorial services
*        Offers a thorough examination of the virtual library infrastructure crucial for an online learning program, with a special look at the particular needs and responsibilities of online librarians
*        Looks at the evolving relationship between higher education and copyright, and posits how educational technology will bring further changes
Bursting with stimulating ideas and wisdom gleaned from first-hand experience, Stielow's book presents a model for offering outstanding higher education library services in an increasingly online environment.

Devine, Jane and Francine Egger-Sider.  Going Beyond Google Again: Strategies for Using and Teaching the Invisible Web. Chicago: Neal-Schuman, 2014. 025.0425 Devin.  ISBN 978-1-55570-898-6

The Invisible Web, also known as the Deep Web, is a huge repository of underutilized resources that can be richly rewarding to searchers who make the effort to find them. Since Jane Devine and Francine Egger-Sider explored the educational potentials of this realm in Going Beyond Google: The Invisible Web in Learning and Teaching, the information world has grown even more complex, with more participants, more content, more formats, and more means of access. Demonstrating why teaching the Invisible Web should be a requirement for information literacy education in the 21st century, here the authors expand on the teaching foundation provided in the first book and persuasively argue that the Invisible Web is still relevant not only to student research but also to everyday life. Intended for anyone who conducts research on the web, including students, teachers, information professionals, and general users, their book:
*        Defines the characteristics of the Invisible Web, both technologically and cognitively
*        Provides a literature review of students information-seeking habits, concentrating on recent research
*        Surveys the theory and practice of teaching the Invisible Web
*        Shows ways to transform students into  better researchers
*        Highlights teaching resources such as graphics, videos, and tutorials
*        Offers an assortment of tools, both public and proprietary, for trawling the Invisible Web
*        Looks at the future of the Invisible Web, with thoughts on how changes in search technology will affect users, particularly students learning to conduct research
