I start the last day of the #LIBER2023 conference in session 9: "Facing Forward: new user services" https://liberconference.eu/programme/parallel-session/session-9/. first up: "The post-pandemic desk service at university libraries – towards a hybrid future?" by Liv Inger Lamøy & Astrid Kilvik, library of NTNU, Norway.
"what is a digital library on zoom?" was the question the colleagues asked themselves after setting up a first online information desk at the beginning of the corona pandemic. so they started using different methods to find out. #LIBER2023 #userservices
some findings: at the physical and digital desk users ask different types of questions, the choice of physical/digital desk seems to depends on personal preference and convenience. #LIBER2023 #userservices
now the question is: how can they built a hybrid environment, transfering the quality from one form to the other and vice versa, to enrich both? aspects are e.g. the digital "undisturbness" and the physical "approachability". #LIBER2023 #usersivces
from the organizational point of view there are questions as well, like resources and priorities, because it's not just a new service, but an organizational change with different interests involved. #LIBER2023 #userservices #informationdesks
now up: @mattistoehr on "#vBIB (https://www.vbib.net/ & @vbib) – An open virtual event format from the community for the community". [disclaimer: I know this German conference event, and it's brilliant! :)] #LIBER2023
"inventing" the #vBIB began when the 2020 German librarians conference was cancelled due to the corona pandemic. especially colleagues in the twitter community wished for an alternative. so BIB & TIB teamed up and organized a virtual conference within 6 weeks. #LIBER2023
over the last 3 years #vBIB developed a thorough mission statement - and some uniqueness and specifities. :) I was too slow to take a photo of the technical infrastructure slide, but feel free to ask @mattistoehr about the set-up! #LIBER2023
@v_i_o_l_a @mattistoehr irgendwas mit #wiki #wikidata @wdscholia steht da auf einer Folie oben - brilliant! @JensB

@librerli @v_i_o_l_a @wdscholia @JensB Jupp - ganz bewusst im #LIBER2023-Beitrag zur @vbib eingebaut. Denn ihr macht in Sachen #Wikiversifizierung der #vBIB von Anbeginn der #vBIB20 einfach eine tolle Arbeit! Faktisch sind es sogar zwei Slides mit Link zur Konferenz-Serie https://scholia.toolforge.org/event-series/Q108784175 und beispielhaft eine Autorengraph-Netzwerkvisualisierung. Spoiler vor Veröffentlichung des gesamten Foliensatzes:
@mattistoehr @librerli @v_i_o_l_a @wdscholia @vbib Vielleicht sollten wir mal eine Session ''#Wikiversifizierung der #vBIB' einreichen, #vBiB23!? Chris formal, ich als Sekundant https://diedatenlaube.github.io/Citizen_Science_in_den_Geschichtswissenschaften.html
