The Heart of Librarianship: A Topical Literature Review of Outreach in Academic Libraries (open access)

The Heart of Librarianship: A Topical Literature Review of Outreach in Academic Libraries

This literature review provides an overview of outreach in academic libraries over the last five years. The review aims to centralize the common activities and general purposes of outreach while also bringing emphasis to more strategic outreach efforts such as the incorporation of learning outcomes and assessment into outreach. The review also provides commentary on how outreach can be used to affect information literacy and research.

Multimodal switching of a redox-active macrocycle (open access)

Multimodal switching of a redox-active macrocycle

This article looks at molecules that can exist in multiple states with the possibility of toggling between those states based on different stimuli. They have potential for use in molecular switching or sensing applications. The coupling of two different oxidation states with two different charge-transfer states within one macrocyclic scaffold delivers up to five different optical outputs. This molecular switching manifold exploits intramolecular coupling of multiple redox active substituents within a single molecule.

Electrostatic equilibria of non-neutral plasmas confined in a Penning trap with axially varying magnetic field (open access)

Electrostatic equilibria of non-neutral plasmas confined in a Penning trap with axially varying magnetic field

This article describes a procedure for computing the electrostatic equilibria of non-neutral plasmas in a Penning trap with a nonuniform magnetic field by solving Poisson's equation using an iterative method. Plasma equilibria in a model Penning trap with high and low field regions are computed. The plasma is assumed to follow the Boltzmann density distribution along magnetic field lines.

Artificially structured boundary plasma trap

This article presents a computer simulation of single-species non-neutral plasma confinement using an artificially structured boundary. The results support the prospect of developing plasma space-charge based confinement, with an unmagnetized plasma of one species of charged particles confined by an electric field produced by an edge-confined plasma of a second species of charged particles.

A New Approach to Academic Library Liaisons

This presentation reviews the University of North Texas approach to revamp the philosophy for, and means of supporting, subject librarians as they provide library services to the university community. Crafting a new philosophy of liaison librarianship can be both an exciting and a daunting process. New models of service have emerged that offer exciting opportunities to improve librarian skill sets, clarify expectations of subject librarians, standardize assessment of liaisons, and identify a variety of strategies for providing liaison services.

An acoustic analysis of American English liquids by adults and children: Native English speakers and native Japanese speakers of English (open access)

An acoustic analysis of American English liquids by adults and children: Native English speakers and native Japanese speakers of English

This article is a study investigating acoustic characteristics of American English liquids produced by native English (NE) and native Japanese (NJ) speakers reported in Aoyama, Flege, Guion, Akahane-Yamada, and Yamada [(2004). J. Phonetics 32, 233–250]. The secondary aim of the study is to compare the acoustic nature of English liquids between native speakers and Japanese L2 speakers of English. This work was presented at the 170th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America on June 25, 2017 in Boston, MA.

Altitudinal gradients in Magellanic sub-Antarctic lagoons: the effect of elevation on freshwater macroinvertebrate diversity and distribution (open access)

Altitudinal gradients in Magellanic sub-Antarctic lagoons: the effect of elevation on freshwater macroinvertebrate diversity and distribution

In this article, freshwater macroinvertebrate diversity associated with lakes and ponds along the altitudinal gradient of a Magellanic sub-Antarctic watershed are assessed. A monotonic decline in species richness was observed with increasing elevation, with simpler and more even community composition at higher altitude. This pattern differs from the mid-peak trend found in streams of the same watershed. Functional feeding group structure also diminished with increasing elevation.

Hidden Gems: A Partnership Between the Digitization Lab and Photography Studio Art at UNT

Poster presented at the 2019 Texas Conference on Digital Libraries (TCDL-2019). This poster discusses how inter-departmental partnerships, particularly between UNT's Digital Libraries and Department of Photography and Studio Art can provide a win win collaborative environment for all parties involved. While the Digital Projects Lab can hire experienced photographers to operate and oversee its capturing system, as the same time MFA students can gain high level photography experiences in a real world project outside of the College of Visual Arts and Design which would help them diversify their skillset.

Giant spin Hall effect in two-dimensional monochalcogenides (open access)

Giant spin Hall effect in two-dimensional monochalcogenides

This article, using calculations from first principles, reveals for the first time giant intrinsic spin Hall conductivities (SHC) in these materials. In particular, the article shows that the SHC resonances can be easily tuned by combination of strain and doping and, in some cases, strain can be used to induce semiconductor to metal transition that makes a giant spin Hall effect possible even in absence of doping.
