Notas del editor
- WELCOME! Wait for latecomers INTRODUCTION & INSTRUCTIONS – Will be on MuteJen Albers will be moderating the chat room. We have much to cover in the next hour. Any questions be directed to Jen in chat.
- REVIEW AGENDA –
- Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math/Medicine continues to grow in both interest and interdisciplinary appeal. There is an increased call for women in STEM fields and this topic has been a major focus of the White House and particularly Michelle Obama.
- In addition, the STEM business community is now committed toward efforts of supporting STEM education to insure that college graduates are not just prepared for careers in these fields, but also have the skills to become future leaders within their communities and globally.
- As STEM occupation projections approach growth rates of 17% by 2018 according to the US Department of Commerce, the demand for libraries and STEM related departments to provide access to content in these fields will also grow. In support of this effort, Gale is now pleased to offer more than 3000 STEM related titles on our award winning eBook platform from Springer and Elsevier. This includes almost 30 new eBook collections, primarily monographs, which expands on our large humanities base of content.
- This collection provides coverage of both astronautical and aeronautical engineering. A number of titles cover aerodynamics, as well space strategy, satellite systems, and power management.
- As you may know aeronautical engineering crosses a number of disciplines within engineering, as well as humanities disciplines such as history when you begin to explore the success and failure of space and aviation flight and what we can learn from these experiences. Who would like to take a ride on Malaysian Airlines? Anyone?
- Perhaps the engineering field experiencing the most change and growth is Biomedical engineering. The Gale collection offers almost 50 titles from 3 of the leading science publishers. Essential topics are covered such as Neuro Science, but you will also find information around new diseases, dentistry, and translational medicine.
- Yale MOOC – Open Online Courses, Do you want to create replacement cells, tissues, and organs?” “Do you want to focus on the use of mathematical theory or computers to solve complex biological and medical problems?” “Do you want to develop new imaging technology to reveal how biological systems work or to diagnose disease?” Sequence Richard III’s DNA. Adding these 2013-2014 titles to your library collection insures that the latest trends in this constantly changing field are available for your users.
- College campus sustainability is an integral part of every college strategic plan, and most likely every library collection strategy. Gale’s Civil and Environmental Engineering collection supports the very interdisciplinary nature of this field.
- Whether a department is teaching a course on urban cities and infrastructure, or students need to utilize the library while studying abroad to support their research around international structures, this collection provides coverage of topics such as plasticity, stone, and cement-based materials to coverage of earthquake resistant materials, railroads, and water purification.
- The growth of communications and technology has fueled interest in electrical engineering. One of our largest engineering eBook collections offered, these 2013-14 titles provide essential information on power, control, signal processing, and electronics among other topics.
- Students may be required to take courses across disciplines, depending on their focus, and the Gale Electrical Engineering eBook collection complements many of these disciplines. I should note that we will soon be adding a collection on mathematics and cyber security that will be of definite interest to those studying electrical engineering.
- While this collection does offer coverage of traditional manufacturing topics associated with industrial engineering, it is much more. The Gale industrial engineering collection includes critical coverage of the oil and gas industry, reliability engineering, as well as international conference proceedings around industrial engineering and management innovation.
- Industrial engineering by its nature delves into a bit of human resources and some of the social sciences. A very interdisciplinary collection.
- Our largest and broadest eBook collection we will cover today. DNA nanotechnology, magnetophotonics, tribology, and inhaler technologies are just a few of the topics covered within almost 200 titles.
- The Gale materials science collection appeals to those researching forensics as a criminal justice major, new medical device materials as a pre-med student, or perhaps a fashion design department researching footwear design. By its nature materials science is cross-disciplinary, and this collection will support research within the humanities, social sciences, and sciences.
- Finally, another large eBook collection from Gale and one near and dear to our hearts as a headquarter based Detroit company is mechanical engineering. One of the oldest and broadest engineering disciplines, you will find complimentary overlap with our Aeronautical Engineering collection, materials science, as well as civil engineering. There is a good deal of information on using AUTOCAD programming, as well as conference proceedings in the area of marine engineering and vehicle thermal systems management.
- The library collection applications are quite broad, and those institutions that regularly graduate students that go on to work within the automotive or transportation industry will benefit from this collection.
- GVRL is the only library product in the history of the Charleston Advisor to get five stars — the highest rating. The only other two services to get five stars ever were Jing and the Mayo Clinic.
- GVRL was one of the first eBook platforms on the market, and we continue to enhance our platform…You have the ability to customize your eBook collections, acquiring on a title by title basis, or as an ecollection.
- Gale’s eBook partners list is one of the largest if not the largest in the world…jump into product
