C&RL News February 2020 58 N e w s f r o m t h e F i e l dDavid Free Pepperdine Libraries complete three- year NEH grant The Pepperdine University Libraries have concluded a groundbreaking sustainable preservation initiative that will extend the life of its collections for generations to come. The $700,000 project kicked off in 2016 when the libraries received a three-year grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities through its Division of Preser- vation and Ac- cess. T h e o v e r - a r c h i n g g o a l for the project was to develop a sustainable p r e s e r v a t i o n e n v i r o n m e n t f o r t h e h u - manities ma- terials in Pep- perdine’s Spe- cial Collections and University Archives, com- pleted in conjunction with the 2017 Payson Library renovation. This preservation environ- ment includes sustainable preservation sys- tems that will extend the usable life of Pepper- dine’s rare and valuable humanities materials while serving as a demonstration space for feasible, affordable preventive preservation at other medium-sized institutions.

C&RL News February 2020 60 European Medical Writers Association, and International Society for Medical Publication Professionals have released a Joint Position Statement on Predatory Publishing, which outlines the serious threat that predatory journals pose, both to researchers publish- ing the results of their work and to the peer-reviewed medical literature itself. The statement, published in Current Medical Research & Opinion, calls for all potential medical authors to carry out due diligence by examining the reputation of the publi- cations to which they submit, and to send their work only to those journals that pro- vide proper peer review and that genuinely seek to contribute to the scientific literature. McIntyre Library was designated as a federal depository library in 1951. Its fully cataloged federal documents collection, prominently displayed on its first floor, contains 126,000 items and 86,000 titles (with some titles con- sisting of multiple items or volumes). Its entire government information collection includes publications in print, microfiche, CD, and online formats. The library is a selective depository library, which means it can choose the govern- ment publications to be added to its collection based on the needs of the community it serves. AMWA-EMWA-ISMPP Joint Position Statement on Predatory Publishing The American Medical Writers Association, ACRL HSIG Information Literacy Framework Mapping Working Group update Due to the 2016 adoption of the Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education, the ACRL Board of Directors voted to rescind the Information Literacy Competency Stan- dards for Higher Education. As a result, the accompanying Information Literacy Compe- tency Standards for Nursing need to be revised to reflect the move to a framework structure. In January 2018, the ACRL Health Sciences Interest Group convened a working group to revise the Information Literacy Competency Standards for Nursing. This working group includes nursing liaison librarians from vari- ous academic institutions and an ACRL liaison representative. To understand how nursing faculty approach information literacy instruc- tion (IL), the group began with a preliminary review of related literature, which was used to inform the design and execution of a sur- vey to understand how nursing faculty inte- grate IL into nursing education curriculums. Findings from the literature and an analysis of survey results suggest that nursing faculty are intentional about using nursing educational association standards, such as the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) Essentials, to incorporate IL into their individual courses. However, though 69% of survey respondents are involved in their program’s curriculum development, only 52% indicated their institutions’ curricula have an IL goal. Meeting nursing faculty where they are by using the standards and language they are already familiar with to promote the forth- coming Framework for Information Literacy for Nursing could help librarians establish and leverage collaborations with nursing faculty. The draft of a revised AACN Essentials document is expected in March 2020, which the working group will use to further guide our work drafting framework-friendly nursing information literacy recommendations. The group plans to distribute draft versions of the Framework for Information Literacy for Nursing for comment in 2020 and is also in the process of publishing the results of both the literature review and a comprehensive analysis of survey results.

Brought to you by the ACRL ULS Technology in University Libraries Committee Magento is an e-commerce platform that delivers a great deal of flex- ibility, even with its free version, via the Bundle Product type. The bundle option allows for more than one item to be grouped together and sold as a package. Within a bundle, users can configure an item to be required or optional. What makes it even more exciting is that you can allow a user to choose the quantity for each desired product. Please note this option only applies to two input control types. A library can deploy Magento as an internal supply store for items that are frequently used together (e.g., papers and cartridges, and pens and notebooks), so as to make more convenient ordering experiences for everyone. —Minhao Jiang Watne State University . . .

Consumer Reports archives come to Duke The David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Duke University has acquired the archives of Consumer Reports (CR), the nonprofit consumer organization committed to creating a fair, safe, and trans- parent marketplace for all. The massive col- lection, which spans some 2,800 linear feet and required two tractor trailers to transport to Durham from CR’s headquarters in Yon- kers, New York, includes archival materials, books, photographs, and artifacts document- ing the history of the organization, from its founding during the Great Depression to its eventual prominence as a household name for safety, fairness, and informed decision- making. It will take approximately three-to- four years to catalog the archives, the major- ity of which will be open to researchers at Duke. In its new home in Duke’s Rubenstein Library, the archive complements existing collections, including the Hartman Center —home to the largest collection of materials on the history of advertising and marketing in the United States—and the Economists’ Papers Archive, which holds the papers of more than 60 significant economists.
