The "pop-up library" is a means of bringing the library closer to the people. The concept involves setting up a booth on a designated day and location, promoting engaging conversations with users. Embraced by public libraries and increasingly adopted by university libraries, the pop-up library is recognized as an effective communication channel and outreach method. Numerous libraries employing the pop-up concept attest to its efficacy in raising awareness of library services and initiating meaningful dialogues.
In the Netherlands, several university libraries have undergone centralization, leading to the disappearance of faculty libraries. This shift poses a significant challenge for libraries to remain in contact with their clients. In the meantime, the need for physical visits to the library diminishes, thanks to the ongoing digitization of services and collections. The University of Groningen Library recognized the potential of a pop-up library to (re)connect with academic staff and to increase the visibility of our services.
In this presentation, we will delve into how the University of Groningen Library implemented a pop-up library. The focus will be on sharing practical insights gained from our experiences in setting up and organizing a pop-up library. We will provide an overview of our setup, offer tips and tricks, and reflect on our journey after a year of touring with our pop-up library. Join us as we explore our pop-up library venture.

Wir benötigen in der Forschung, und für ein qualitätsgerechtes Forschungsdatenmanagement, neue infrastrukturellen Dienste, die langfristig im Sinne von FAIR, sehr wichtig sind und die sich zum Teil erst weiter mit den wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken zusammen, etablieren. Universitätsbibliotheken sind oft PartnerInnen der forschungsnahen Dienste, sowohl lokal als auch global, wenn sie sich den neuen Themen öffnen.
In einer CoRDI 2023 Keynote in Karlsruhe im vergangenen September präsentierte Christine Borgman von der University of California, Los Angeles es so:
“Knowledge Infrastructures: The Invisible Foundation of Research Data Or, How Infrastructure Connects and Disconnects Research Communities”.
In diesem Einzelvortrag soll der Verbund Base4NFDI, insbesondere die Task Area 3, näher vorgestellt werden. Der Verbund der Basisdienste hatte im März 2023 seine Arbeit aufgenommen. Bei Base4NFDI geht es um NFDI-weite Basisdienste, die Effizienz sowie Nutzung der Services zum Forschungsdatenmanagement verbessern. Die Initiative ist eine gemeinsame aller NFDI-Konsortien. Institutionen aus der wissenschaftlichen Infrastrukturversorgung sowie aus allen großen Forschungsorganisationen in Deutschland sind aktiv bei Base4NFDI beteiligt. Die gesamte NFDI-Gemeinschaft ist Zielgruppe und arbeitet vernetzt zusammen:
“Base4NFDI is a joint initiative of all consortia within the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) to foster and establish reliable NFDI-wide basic services. Therefore, various groups and individuals within the initiative are working together to build a network for the ongoing identification, support, development, operation and evaluation of NFDI-wide basic services.”
Task Area 3 etabliert den Prozessrahmen für die Auswahl und Entwicklung von Basisdiensten (transparente und nachvollziehbare Entscheidungsfindung zur Fortführung oder Einstellung von Dienstentwicklungen). Die Rolle der Bibliotheken bei Base4NFDI wird auch erörtert und abschließend diskutiert.
Conferences are filled with discussion, presentations, and analysis of what catalogues and cataloguing will be in the future. Reports on the topic abound. Yet despite the arrival and implementation of RDA, and the strong attention being paid toward BIBFRAME, library cataloguing still looks essentially like it did when the earliest computer-based MARC cataloguing systems were implemented. So how do libraries truly embrace the lessons and technology from the information community outside of libraries, and evolve (perhaps revolutionize) our systems and processes to take advantage of what other communities are doing? A key place to start is people. This presentation will discuss what skills and competencies cataloguers of the future should have to lead progress, and postulate what future catalogues and cataloguing systems will look like. Be prepared: it´s likely to be pretty different. (Session: Treffpunkt Standardisierung: Fit für RDA; Raum: Sydney; 29. Mai 2015: 09:00 Uhr - 12:00 Uhr)
Robots among Bookshelves: The Education of Robotics at the National Library of Technology in Prague
(2024)
The main goal of this paper is to present the ongoing project of robotics at the National Library of Technology (#robotikaNTK) from the insider position of its main coordinator. The presentation is focused on the introduction of the Info Corner of Robotics and its associated activities mainly consisting of several workshops.
This project was established at the end of the year 2021 as a part of the “Technological Library for the Development of Digital Literacy” funding. Since that time (and because of its popularity), it has always been in the stage of further development. The Info Corner of Robotics consists of the selection of specialized books that are connected with robotics (e. g. programming, mechatronics, ethics of A.I., kit manuals) and its main goal is to concentrate the literature across multiple fields in one space. During the time of regular consultations at the Corner, it is also possible for the visitors to be introduced to the selected robot kits.
The inseparable part of this project is the education of robotics in the form of workshops that are being conducted at the Library by specialized lecturers. The target audience for the workshops are students from elementary schools, high schools and universities. The lecturers are using educational kits mainly from Robotis Systems and also from Universal Robots as a part of the workshop with collaborative robotic arm UR3e. Based on the regular feedback up to now, the workshops provide very important experience for both: the beginners, and the specialists. Overall, they help to increase the level of technological literacy among students and often inspire them to study robotics in the future.
The project of robotics reflects the initial idea that a library of technology shouldn't be just a building full of books, but also an attractive space where the visitors are allowed to learn about technologies in combination of both: theoretical studying of books, and practical use of gadgets (e.g. robots) as well.
