Beyond the Threshold: Conformity, Resistance, and the ACRL Information Literacy Framework for Higher Education
Creators: name: Beilin, Ian G.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: Information science

description: The recently adopted ACRL Framework for Information Literacy for Higher Education has generated much critique and discussion, including many important reflections on the nature of information literacy and librarianship itself. This article provides a brief consideration of some of these responses and as well a critique of the Framework from the perspective of critical information literacy. It argues that although the Framework demonstrably opens up possibilities for an information literacy instruction that encourages students to question the power structures and relations that shape information production and consumption, it nonetheless rests on a theoretical foundation at odds with that goal. It urges librarians to embrace the Framework yet also resist it, in the tradition of critical librarians who have practiced resistance to the instrumentalization of the library for neoliberal ends.

description: Using infinite projected entangled-pair states (iPEPS), we show that the Shastry-Sutherland model in an external magnetic field has low-magnetization plateaus which, in contrast to previous predictions, correspond to crystals of bound states of triplets, and {\it not} to crystals of triplets. The first sizable plateaus appear at magnetization 1/8, 2/15 and 1/6, in agreement with experiments on the orthogonal-dimer antiferromagnet SrCu$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$, and they can be naturally understood as regular patterns of bound states, including the intriguing 2/15 one. We also show that, even in a confined geometry, two triplets bind into a {\it localized} bound state with $S_z=2$. Finally, we discuss the role of competing domain-wall and supersolid phases as well as that of additional anisotropic interactions.

description: We review the basic techniques for extracting information about quasar structure and kinematics from the broad emission lines in quasars. We consider which lines can most effectively serve as virial estimators of black hole mass. At low redshift the Balmer lines,particularly broad H beta, are the lines of choice. For redshifts greater than 0.7 - 0.8 one can follow H beta into the IR windows or find an H beta surrogate. We explain why UV CIV 1549 is not a safe virial estimator and how MgII 2800 serves as the best virial surrogate for H beta up to the highest redshift quasar known at z ~ 7. We show how spectral binning in a parameter space context (4DE1) makes possible a more effective comparison of H beta and MgII. It also helps to derive more accurate mass estimates from appropriately binned spectra and, finally, to map the dispersion in black hole mass and Eddington ratio across the quasar population. FWHM MgII is about 20% smaller than FWHM H beta in the majority of type 1 AGN requiring correction when comparing black hole mass estimates from these two lines. The 20% of sources showing narrowest FWHM H beta (< 4000 km/s) and strongest FeII (R_FeII >~ 1.0) emission (we call them bin A3-4 sources) do not show this FWHM difference and a blueshift detected in MgII for these sources suggests that FWHM H beta is the safer virial estimator for these extreme Eddington emitters.

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: High frame video (HFV) is an important investigational tool in sciences, engineering and military. In ultra-high speed imaging, the obtainable temporal, spatial and spectral resolutions are limited by the sustainable throughput of in-camera mass memory, the lower bound of exposure time, and illumination conditions. In order to break these bottlenecks, we propose a new coded video acquisition framework that employs K > 2 conventional cameras, each of which makes random measurements of the 3D video signal in both temporal and spatial domains. For each of the K cameras, this multi-camera strategy greatly relaxes the stringent requirements in memory speed, shutter speed, and illumination strength. The recovery of HFV from these random measurements is posed and solved as a large scale l1 minimization problem by exploiting joint temporal and spatial sparsities of the 3D signal. Three coded video acquisition techniques of varied trade offs between performance and hardware complexity are developed: frame-wise coded acquisition, pixel-wise coded acquisition, and column-row-wise coded acquisition. The performances of these techniques are analyzed in relation to the sparsity of the underlying video signal. Simulations of these new HFV capture techniques are carried out and experimental results are reported.

description: The purposes of this assessment project were to measure the effectiveness of the (1) directional and locational signs at the Burke Library at Union Theological Seminary and (2) Burke Library’s orientation session for incoming students at Union Theological Seminary (UTS). In particular, we were interested in identifying points of failure in the process of finding people, places, and things as users navigate the library building without any assistance from staff at service desks. Library staff recently revised a location guide and temporarily updated some signage within the library. Before investing in permanent signage, we wanted to make sure that the new, temporary signage was clear and helped users. To that end, a visitor wayfinding study was conducted. The results of this study will inform (1) the design of a coherent signage program to direct library users to people, spaces, and library materials, and (2) changes to the library’s orientation session for incoming UTS students.

description: Over the past decade, electronic books (e-books) have become increasingly popular in the academic community. In response to this demand, Columbia University Libraries/Information Services (CUL/IS) provides access to over two million e-books that support research, teaching, and learning activities across campus and within the wider scholarly community. While the aggregate results indicate that e-book use continues to increase, usage rates are not uniform across disciplines. Anecdotal evidence suggests that while e-book use has grown in the sciences and social sciences, scholars in the arts and humanities rely heavily on print books. The aim of this project is to understand scholarly e-book usage across different disciplines given the highly diverse research needs of the university community.

description: We analyze Hubble Space Telescope (HST) optical imaging of eight low-mass galaxies hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN) identified via their photometric variability in \cite{baldassare_search_2020}.
 We use GALFIT to model the 2D galaxy light profiles, and find a diversity of morphologies.
 The galaxies with regular morphologies are best fit with pseudo-bulges and disks, rather than classical bulges. We estimate black hole masses using scaling relations and find black hole masses of 10$^{3.7-6.6}$ M$_\odot$. We compare this sample to dwarf galaxies with AGN selected via optical spectroscopy. On average, the variable host galaxies have lower mass black holes. We analyze the brightest point source in each galaxy and find their properties are not entirely consistent with star clusters, indicating that they are likely AGN. These point sources are found to have lower luminosities than spectroscopically selected dwarf AGN, but brighter than the point sources in dwarf galaxies not identified as AGN. Our detailed imaging analysis shows that variability selection has the potential to find lower mass black holes and lower luminosity AGN than optical spectroscopy. These active dwarfs may have been missed by spectroscopic searches due to star formation dilution or low gas content.

description: Determining the family to which a malicious file belongs is an essential component of cyberattack investigation, attribution, and remediation. Performing this task manually is time consuming and requires expert knowledge. Automated tools using that label malware using antivirus detections lack accuracy and/or scalability, making them insufficient for real-world applications. Three pervasive shortcomings in these tools are responsible: (1) incorrect parsing of antivirus detections, (2) errors during family alias resolution, and (3) an inappropriate antivirus aggregation strategy. To address each of these, we created our own malware family labeling tool called ClarAVy. ClarAVy utilizes a Variational Bayesian approach to aggregate detections from a collection of antivirus products into accurate family labels. Our tool scales to enormous malware datasets, and we evaluated it by labeling $\approx$40 million malicious files. ClarAVy has 8 and 12 percentage points higher accuracy than the prior leading tool in labeling the MOTIF and MalPedia datasets, respectively.
title: Diverging development of akinetic skulls in cryptodire and pleurodire turtles: an ontogenetic and phylogenetic study
Creators: name: Werneburg, Ingmar
name: Maier, Wolfgang
Publisher: name: Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung
Year: 2019

description: Extant turtles (Testudines) are characterized among others by an akinetic skull, whereas early turtles (Testudinata) still had kinetic skulls. By considering both ontogenetic and evolutionary adaptations, we analyze four character complexes related to the akinetic skull of turtles: (1) snout stiffening, (2) reduction of the basipterygoid process, (3) formation of a secondary lateral braincase wall, and (4) the fusion of the palatoquadrate cartilage to the braincase. Through ontogeny, both major clades of modern turtles, Pleurodira and Cryptodira, show strikingly different modes how the akinetic constructions in the orbitotemporal and quadrate regions are developed. Whereas mainly the ascending process of the palatoquadrate (later ossified as epipterygoid) contributes to the formation of the secondary braincase wall in Cryptodira, only the descending process of the parietal forms that wall in Pleurodira. This is related to the fact that the latter taxon does not develop an extended ascending process that could ossify as the epipterygoid. Whereas the palatoquadrate directly fuses to the braincase in pleurodires by forming appositional bone of quadrate (called Eßwein-fixation herein), both structures are ventrally bridged by the pterygoid in cryptodires. Phylogenetic evidence, including fossil data, suggests that the cryptodiran type of skull fixation is plesiomorphic for crown turtles and that the pleurodire condition evolved secondarily within the crown. Embryonic neck muscle activity may be the cause of this shift of the palatoquadrate. Hidden-necked retraction in cryptodires pulls the palatoquadrate in a posterodorsal and -medial direction during ontogeny, whereas side-necked retraction in pleurodires redirects the palatoquadrate posterolaterally and -medially. These different muscle forces may result in differing positions of the palatoquadrate in relation to the braincase and eventually result in the two different attachment types. Moreover, the general construction of the jaw adductor chamber is affected by alternative fusion modes, which secondarily result in two different types of the trochlear system of the external jaw musculature. Related to that, changes in feeding habit through turtle evolution may have also triggered increasing stabilizattion of the skull. Palatoquadrate fixation, finally, was an important prerequisite for the reduction of the exocranial bones of the temporal skull region.

description: Recently, a comparison between the locations of 6.7-GHz methanol masers and dust continuum emission has renewed speculation that these masers can be associated with evolved stars. The implication of such a scenario would be profound, especially for the interpretation of large surveys for 6.7-GHz masers, individual studies where high-mass star formation has been inferred from the presence of 6.7-GHz methanol masers, and for the pumping mechanisms of these masers. We have investigated the two instances where 6.7-GHz methanol masers have been explicitly suggested to be associated with evolved stars, and we find the first to be associated with a standard high-mass star formation region, and the second to be a spurious detection. We also find no evidence to suggest that the methanol maser action can be supported in the environments of evolved stars. We thereby confirm their exclusive association with high-mass star formation regions.

description: The purpose of this project was to investigate the ways that professional staff members of Columbia University Libraries/lnformation Services (CUL/IS) collaborated with one another, both through formal and informal channels. Before beginning this project, we had some anecdotal understanding of how collaboration was happening between and among the staff of CULIIS, but we were interested in conducting a systematic investigation and evaluation of this collaboration. Our goal was to reveal the collaborative interactions of the staff and analyze these interactions in order to provide understanding about the types and frequency of interactions conducted. After learning more about the collaborative interactions, we aimed to assess how the collaborative interactions we collected mapped to known information about the activities of the professional staff, including an alignment to organizational goals and strategic objectives.

description: In recent years, library performance measurement and assessment have seen expanding interest to provide evidence and context for library priority setting and decision-making. In order to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of services and collections, the number of library assessment activities has grown exponentially. The demand for assessment and evaluation expertise has led to full-time positions, and sometimes evaluation units, charged with sole responsibility for library assessment and planning. At CUL/IS, the Assessment Coordinator provides centralized leadership, coordination, and support for division-based and library-wide assessment activities. Taking a consultative approach, a single full-time librarian works with division staff members to carry out assessment projects. This approach is based on the premise that staff engagement in assessment endeavors is vital to the success of an organization-wide assessment program. However, the success of this approach has not yet been assessed quantitatively. The goal of this poster is to evaluate engagement in the Assessment Program and to understand how collaboration happens among professional staff of CUL/IS.

description: Sphalerons of a new gauge interaction can convert a primordial asymmetry in B or L into a dark matter asymmetry. From the equilibrium conditions for the sphalerons of both the electroweak and the new interactions, one can compute the ratios of B, L, and X, where X is the dark matter number, thus determining the mass of the dark matter particle fairly precisely. Such a scenario can arise naturally in the context of unification with larger groups. An illustrative model embeddable in $SU(6) \times SU(2) \subset E_6$ is described as well as an equally simple model based on SU(7).

description: The temporal smearing of impulsive radio events at cosmological redshifts probes the properties of the ionized Inter-Galactic Medium (IGM). We relate the degree of temporal smearing and the profile of a scattered source to the evolution of turbulent structure in the IGM as a function of redshift. We estimate the degree of scattering expected by analysing the contributions to the Scattering Measure (SM) of the various components of baryonic matter embedded in the IGM, including the diffuse IGM, intervening galaxies and intracluster gas. These estimates predict that the amount of temporal smearing expected at 300\,MHz is typically as low as ~1 ms and suggests that these bursts may be detectable with low frequency widefield arrays. A generalization of the DM-SM relation observed for Galactic scattering to the densities and turbulent conditions relevant to the IGM suggests that scattering measures of order 10^{-6} kpc m {-20/3} would be expected at z ~ 1. This scattering is sufficiently low that its effects would, for most lines of sight, not be manifest in existing observations of the scattering broadening in images of extragalactic compact sources. The redshift dependence of the temporal smearing discriminates between scattering that occurs in the host galaxy of the burst and the IGM, with tau_host \propto (1+z)^{-3} if the scattering probes length scales below the inner scale of the turbulence or tau_host \propto (1+z)^{-17/5} if the turbulence follows a Kolmogorov spectrum. This differs strongly from the expected IGM scaling tau_{IGM} ~ z^2 for z < 1 and (1+z)^{0.2-0.5} for z >> 1.

description: As a result of the speed and direction of rural depopulation, between 1986 and 2006, 59% of rural settlements were deserted in Iran’s second most populous province, Khorasan Razavi. In Iran as a whole, 37% were abandoned. A Moran’s I = 0.56 suggests that the desertion of villages in Khorasan Razavi followed a clustered pattern, with the highest rate of depopulation being in rural areas covering less than 5% of the province’s land area. Macro-economic and policy causes are outlined, as are some of the consequences and ways to promote more balanced and equitable development.

description: In this contribution, a first look at simulations using maximally twisted mass Wilson fermions at the physical point is presented. A lattice action including clover and twisted mass terms is presented and the Monte Carlo histories of one run with two mass-degenerate flavours at a single lattice spacing are shown. Measurements from the light and heavy-light pseudoscalar sectors are compared to previous $N_f = 2$ results and their phenomenological values. Finally, the strategy for extending simulations to $N_f = 2 + 1 + 1$ is outlined.

The urban system of Russia from 1991–2020: gradual development instead of radical transformation

description: An analysis of the evolution of the urban system of the Russian Federation in the period from 1991 to 2020 reveals an increase in heterogeneity of city development due to the growth of large cities and a decrease in the population of small cities, alongside a spatial shift in an east–west direction, although these changes are far less marked and slower than originally anticipated at the start of the transition from a planned to a market economy. Market potential, specialization, infrastructure, the administrative status of the city and geographical location all play a role, but market potential and its individual components have ambiguous effects because negative competitive aspects of interregional relations outweigh positive cooperative aspects and positive effects work mainly at the level of the individual subjects of the Russian Federation.

description: Developing countries lack subnational data to assess mega-events. Accordingly, an economic proxy is developed to quantify city-level income growth of economies of the South African cities that hosted the 2010 FIFA World Cup by performing a geographically weighted regression between night light data and total city-level income and using it to predict total income from 1992 to 2013. A panel data comparison of income growth in host and non-host cities revealed similar income growth. However, the cities that invested the most in building or renovating their stadia experienced 9% lower income growth than other host cities, suggesting the limited ability of the World Cup to stimulate economic growth and the presence of inefficient investment.

description: Student simulation supports educators to improve teaching by interacting with virtual students. However, most existing approaches ignore the modulation effects of course materials because of two challenges: the lack of datasets with granularly annotated course materials, and the limitation of existing simulation models in processing extremely long textual data. To solve the challenges, we first run a 6-week education workshop from N = 60 students to collect fine-grained data using a custom built online education system, which logs students' learning behaviors as they interact with lecture materials over time. Second, we propose a transferable iterative reflection (TIR) module that augments both prompting-based and finetuning-based large language models (LLMs) for simulating learning behaviors. Our comprehensive experiments show that TIR enables the LLMs to perform more accurate student simulation than classical deep learning models, even with limited demonstration data. Our TIR approach better captures the granular dynamism of learning performance and inter-student correlations in classrooms, paving the way towards a ''digital twin'' for online education.
