Article analyzing the 2020 Texas Public Library Statistics and a portion of the 2019 and 2018 data. It examined various services from libraries located in the areas with a population of less than 5,000. This is the Accepted Manuscript version of a published article.

Article examines the nature of the super-short vowel-like segments between the C- prefixes of the Lamkang language by combining acoustic analysis with speakers' intuitions about syllable structure. The authors argue that an accurate phonetic description of Lamkang vowels must include these super-short vowels, as well as long and short vowels, which are phonemically distinct.

This article is an exploratory study providing empirical data on language archive user needs and supports some anecdotal evidence of known issues facing language archive end-users, depositors, and managers in primarily academic contexts.

This article analyzes the Association of Academic Health Sciences Libraries (AAHSL) member libraries’ COVID-19 LibGuides to determine volume and origin of links included. This is a manuscript version of the article. The article was published online November 17, 2022.

This article focuses on citation recommendation in the related studies section by applying the term function of a citation context, potentially improving the efficiency of writing a literature review. The citation recommendation strategy can be helpful for valuable citation discovery, semantic scientific retrieval, and automatic literature review generation.

This article builds on health information behavior literature and participatory research models with indigenous communities to develop strategies for future work with indigenous communities of speakers of endangered languages, proposing a participatory methodology for future work with communities of endangered language speakers related to health using ethnographic interviews and focus groups.

This article reports the first empirical investigation of various dimensions of organization and representation of recorded knowledge and information in language archives. The study used a combination of semi-structured interviews and content analysis. Results demonstrate that, while some of the phenomena related to organization of information in language archives are specific to these types of archives, others are more typical and have been addressed by libraries in past research and practice.

This article investigates information transmission networks and news-sharing behaviors regarding COVID-19 on Twitter in Korea. The real time aggregation of social media data can serve as a starting point for designing strategic messages for health campaigns and establishing an effective communication system during this outbreak.

Poster discussing practical methods for ensuring the quality of descriptive metadata associated with linguistic datasets in language archive deposits. Digital language archives are valuable tools for facilitating language revitalization, providing data on lesser-known languages, and supporting reproducibility of research and development of linguistic theory, though their potential remains unrealized as the data available in language archives are rarely accessed by linguists or language communities. Reasons for this under-utilization are the issues with data standardization and metadata quality. Including basic grammatical and typological information would allow wider audiences to reach the material.

This presentation explores the variation in interlinear-glossed text (IGT) in 5 closely related South-Central Tibeto-Burman languages with verb stem alternation, reduplicated adverbial modifiers, and pre-verbal directionals. While IGT is a rich representation of language, IGT for even closely related languages can look markedly different due to individual linguists’ divergent analyses. In comparing the discrepancies between representations of such features, we gain insight into the underlying analytic thinking of the annotator to reexamine and improve analyses.

This article is from the 26th ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education and discusses the design, effectiveness, and curricular impacts of an introductory data science course focused on practical programming skills and allowing students to concurrently complete the course in Python, R, or MATLAB. Students indicated a preference for the multi-language course design and the course became the recommended first programming course for a newly developed and approved undergraduate data science majors.

This article is a study describing the canal transportation of the different file systems in various combinations of the “Glide path (Gp)” by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Video recording of the third webinar from the Oral History Forum. The theme of the webinar explore best practices and considerations for ethically informed preservation and archiving of oral history.

Video recording of the fourth webinar from the Oral History Forum. The theme of the last webinar of the series explores innovative uses of oral history collections and pushes for equitable access to oral history collections.

Correction to article changes the name of one of the authors.

Presentation exploring how information is organized in digital cultural heritage collection in Arabian Gulf countries. Study reveals high metadata quality overall but lack of consistency for many metadata fields, explained in part by the absence of metadata creation guidelines and professional training for metadata creators.

Article reviewing one particular challenge to data management relevant to South Asia, which is the complexity of names (of individuals, groups, and languages). It was presented at the 1st International Workshop on Digital Language Archives held on September 30-October 1, 2021 as part of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2021.

Article describing a pilot project undertaken at the Computational Resource for South Asian Languages (CoRSAL) which explores a collaborative archiving approach to enable language community members to tell their own stories by adding contextual information to archival materials. It was presented at the 1st International Workshop on Digital Language Archives held on September 30-October 1, 2021 as part of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2021.

Conference paper elucidates the issues facing language archive managers and users through two steps: content analysis of information organization in language archives, and semi-structured interviews with language archive managers and users. Primary challenges identified include lacking institutional support and a range of factors which impact authority control in language archives. This version is the author's accepted manuscript.

Article on the development of a workflow process that can accommodate the range of different language depositors in the Computational Resource for South Asian Languages (CoRSAL). It was presented at the 1st International Workshop on Digital Language Archives held on September 30-October 1, 2021 as part of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2021.

Article introduces the collaboration between the Computational Resource for South Asian Languages (CoRSAL) group and the University of North Texas (UNT) Digital Library to build a series of interconnected digital collections for various language communities. It was presented at the 1st International Workshop on Digital Language Archives held on September 30-October 1, 2021 as part of the ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2021.

Presentation addressing the need for effective training in metadata creation for library and information science students through an overview of the metadata creation skill-building content of the online introductory graduate metadata course at the University of North Texas, results of the analysis of quality in student-created metadata records, and discussion of how the observed common metadata quality issues might inform curriculum development.

Poster focuses on developing a conceptual framework to understand data literacy needs in community colleges. The authors propose a framework for studying data literacy by conceptualizing data literacy and explicating the core content and competencies associated with it. It was presented at the 2023 Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) conference held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This work is part of an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) grant.
