Brian M. Watson and Michael Morrone of Kelly Business School discuss the Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning and Open Access and its implications.
Join us for a collaboration between IU Libraries GIMMS and the Craig Preservation Lab for an introduction to the maps of IU Libraries. Maps are a unique primary resource for teaching and research. Maps help us translate a three-dimensional experience into a simpler to use two-dimensional representation. Once created, maps do not serve only a single purpose, rather they can easily take on a life of their own. The context in which they were created does not limit their uses in the future. However, maps are also complex in their creation and use. Often, what a mapmaker chooses to leave off of a map can be as substantial as what they choose to include. This is particularly true of historical maps that were created under potentially different contexts than the contexts in which they are currently used. The Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps are an excellent example of this.
The Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps were made for the interests of fire insurance companies across the United States, but because they are detailed, building-by-building descriptions of urban areas, they are useful for many kinds of research. For the last several decades, these maps were carefully updated to demonstrate changes in space and building materials. They help researchers understand many aspects of urban development over time beyond the purpose for which they were created. During this online event, we will hear from GIMMS librarians, the Craig Preservation Lab paper conservator, and faculty who use the maps in the classroom.

Connecting more people to the data they need encourages greater action on results. Join NSSE staff, Jillian and Jim, in this interactive webinar to discuss strategies for connecting NSSE data and results to various units on campus. This webinar will introduce NSSE's new Campuswide Mapping resource and highlight practical approaches to engaging various campus audiences with existing and customized topical reports. We will share examples and exchange ideas for new ways to share NSSE results more widely on your campus. NSSE webinars are interactive, providing participants the opportunity to ask questions and offer suggestions via a text chat. We suggest a group viewing as a convenient way to participate with your colleagues and to facilitate cross-campus conversations about using NSSE results.
