2 ANNUAL REPORT
A M E S SAG E FROM
DEAN SANDRA G. YEE
We’re also moving forward in the area of strategic planning, as we work to develop new directions that align with the goals of
the university. We focused on developing fresh values that serve as a source of navigation, driving our actions as an organization.
Holding strong to our core values of service, expertise, respect and communication, we also added new values, like collaboration
and innovation that will allow us to explore relationships and re-imagine ourselves through creative technology use and
responsible risk taking.
As I was thinking about writing my message for this report, the one theme
that kept popping out at me was “movement,” particularly the idea of how we
actively bring information to our users, but also through our programs, exhibits
and outreach services, we take people on journeys that wouldn’t have been
possible without the Wayne State University Libraries. The Libraries are in a
constant state of advancement; continuously exploring new ways to connect our
users with quality information, programs and services that enhance teaching,
learning and research. We push ahead to make access to information easier and
more efficient. We strive to stay on top of trends and bring that knowledge
to our users. We actively search out collaborations that foster creativity and
innovation. In 2014, we let our energy drive us to excel in everything the
libraries had to offer.
Often movement and momentum come in the form of community and global engagement. In the past year, the Libraries have
hosted a number of displays and exhibits, including participation in the Wayne State Insiders program. Not only did we have
many campus participants join us for the Insiders tour and Special Collections showcase, but we also had many members of the
community visit us to learn more about the hidden gems of our collections that are available for research at Wayne State.
The Libraries are building momentum in the area of innovation, where we’re
exploring and creating technologies to better serve our users. In 2014, our
Discovery Services team worked extensively with Google Glass and Android
phones to create an application called “Wayne State Campus Explorer,” a
discovery app that allows users to move through campus and learn about the
environment around them. Our new custom-built digital collections platform
now makes searching and finding items faster and more efficient—and the more
discoverable our resources are, the more that people can access the unique items
housed at the Wayne State Libraries.
On the global level, our staff and librarians connect with other information professionals around the world by traveling to
national and international conferences and meetings. On the local end, our librarians travel extensively throughout campus and
the metro Detroit area to perform instruction and outreach, teaching users how to get the most out our library resources. Later
in this report, you’ll see just how many places they travel to!
A popular quote associated with libraries is “A library is full of new worlds to travel,” but we often don’t realize that the library
itself is a destination. At Wayne State, faculty and students can virtually access our services and resources from almost anywhere.
We host scholars from around the globe as they come to our libraries to study rare and exclusive research materials. As part
of the Pivotal Moments capital campaign, we are working to fund a special collections room that will hold some of our most
treasured and unique materials while providing a comfortable, supervised space for researchers to interact with these resources.
A room such as this would make the Wayne State Libraries a premier research destination.
Think about the ways that the libraries have helped take you somewhere that you’ve never been before. Perhaps it came in the
form of connecting you with our world-class resources or on a tour of our buildings or collections. Maybe a librarian showed
you or taught you about information that you needed for study or research. The library buildings themselves may have been
your destination for study or other programs that we offer. Every interaction that you have with the library is a journey towards
knowledge. As you read through this report, you’ll see all the places that we’ve taken you in 2014 and the Libraries look forward
to many future travels with you in the years to come.

As part of the Wayne State Insiders program in June, the hidden gems of the
Wayne State Libraries were unveiled in a guided tour of the Reuther Library and
a Special Collections-focused self-guided tour through the Undergraduate and
Purdy/Kresge Libraries.
The 90-minute program split participants into two groups: one group took
part in a behind-the-scenes tour of the Reuther Library headed by archivist
Louis Jones, while the other group was provided maps and embarked on a selfguided tour of Special Collections highlights in the UGL and P/K. From elephant
memorabilia and keepsakes belonging to Florence Nightingale, to a lock of
Abraham Lincoln’s hair and the sister to the pistol used by John Wilkes Booth in
the Lincoln assassination, the group was treated to a trove of historical treasures!
At the end of each tour, the groups switched, ending up with a complete
libraries and archives experience.
The Wayne State Insiders features a different campus location each month
and introduces participants to an “insider” view of that place. Alumni, friends,
students, parents, faculty and staff who serve as informal ambassadors for
Wayne State and the Midtown community are welcome to join in the events.

In September, as part of the Print City Mid-America
Print Council 2014 conference, the Undergraduate
Library hosted The Artist’s Hand: Connecting Printmakers
with Library Special Collections. Members of the Libraries’
Special Collections Team assisted visitors in viewing a
display of treasures from our collections, selected to
inspire printmakers and artists interested in print culture.
The Print City 2014 conference was hosted by Wayne
State University in collaboration with the Mid-America
Print Council. The conference included workshops,
demonstrations, panel discussions, keynote speakers
and exhibitions.
In February, the Libraries hosted 1812, a traveling exhibition produced by the
Canadian War Museum in Ottawa and arranged through the Consulate General
of Canada in Detroit. 1812 explores the War of 1812 through the perspectives
of the four central participants: Canadians (including Canadian First Peoples),
Americans, the British and Native Americans. The exhibit was on display in the
Undergraduate Library atrium throughout the entire month of February.
1812 vividly conveyed the motivations and aspirations of the four participants,
their experiences of the war and its effect on their future. It brought to life key
personalities, such as Major-General Sir Isaac Brock, who was fatally shot during
the Battle of Queenston Heights and became known as “The Hero of Upper
Canada”; Francis Scott Key, the Baltimore lawyer who after witnessing the British
bombardment of Baltimore, Maryland, wrote the lyrics for what would eventually
become the American national anthem; and the Shawnee leader Tecumseh,
one of the best-known and most respected Native American military leaders who
fought alongside the British and was killed during the battle of the Thames.

Dudley Randall (January 14, 1914 – August 5, 2000) was a Wayne State alum,
African-American poet and poetry publisher from Detroit. He founded a
Robert Hayden at his home in Ann Arbor, circa 1973
pioneering publishing company called Broadside Press in 1965, which published
many leading African-American writers. Randall penned his most well-known
poem “The Ballad of Birmingham”, in response to the 1963 bombing of the
Baptist church that Martin Luther King, Jr belonged to in Birmingham, Alabama.
In April, Shiffman Medical Library Outreach Services presented “Conversations
for Caregivers,” an all-day conference at the Charles H. Wright Museum of
African American History that set out to demystify the roles and responsibilities
of caregivers. The conference featured a panel discussion, forum and breakout
sessions that connected caregivers to legal, financial, healthcare, long-term care
and research experts.
Robert Hayden (August 4, 1913 – February 25, 1980) was a Wayne State alum,
African American poet, essayist and educator. Hayden was elected to the American
Academy of Poets in 1975 and from 1976 to 1978, served as the first African

AN D A S TRO PHYS I C S LE CT U RE
In September, the David Adamany Undergraduate Library hosted Here, There, Everywhere, a traveling NASA exhibit that illustrated
how familiar phenomena on earth and across the universe are connected by basic physical laws. Consisting of ten, visually
stunning panels, the exhibit covered topics including shadows, wind, electric discharge, bow waves, lensing and the collisional
excitation of atoms.
To accompany the exhibit, Wayne State University astronomer Ed Cackett delivered a lecture called “Neutron Stars: Humanity
in a Sugar Cube,” where he discussed neutron stars, a type of stellar remnant that can result from the gravitational collapse of
a massive star during a supernova event.
Here, There, Everywhere was conceived, designed and generated by a team at the Chandra X-ray Center, which is part of the
Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Chandra X-ray Observatory is NASA’s flagship
mission for X-ray astronomy and one of the “Great Observatories” along with the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space
Telescope and the now de-orbited Compton Gamma Ray Observatory.

NEW WEBSITE
D E BU T S I N FALL 2 014
Last fall, the Libraries debuted a new website with a
streamlined, mobile device-optimized, easy-to-navigate
interface and a new URL: library.wayne.edu. New and
enhanced features were added to make searches more
robust and results more plentiful. The Libraries launched
Summon, a search index that integrates nearly 99% of
all licensed articles into a single set of results. This new
index has been integrated directly into QuickSearch,
a tool that organizes search results into navigable
categories so users can easily find what they need.
QuickSearch combines the search power of Summon,
the library catalog, research guides, DigitalCommons@
WayneState, digital collections and the Wayne State
University website into a single search interface. Visit the
library website to take the new site for a test drive and

In 2014, the Libraries took part in the Google Glass Explorers program, a
testing program developed by Google that allowed a small group of users
across the country to work and experiment with the wearable computer. Out
of this research, the Libraries developed an application for the Google Glass
and Android smartphones called “Wayne State Campus Explorer,” a discovery
app that allows users to wander the campus while getting information on the
places around them. As the user draws closer to a location, the app displays
other information like building hours and other points of interest. Currently,
all of the libraries are plotted in the app as well as major campus buildings.
With the recent withdrawal of the Google Glass from the market, the Libraries
will continue to further develop more robust features on Wayne State Campus
Explorer for Android and, in the future, other smartphone platforms.
To try out the app, visit the Google Play store at play.google.com.

Last May, the Libraries launched a new, custom-built digital collections platform.
The state-of-the art platform offers much faster loading speeds and access to
higher resolution images. It fully integrates the Libraries’ digital collections content
and improves information discovery for researchers, educators and students.
Out of a need for an updated, customized approach to the Wayne State digital
collections, members of the Discovery Services unit built the platform to take
the place of DLXS. The new platform currently hosts eleven photographic and
text collections, including Virtual Motor City, the Herman Miller Consortium
Collection, Lincoln Letters, Changing the Face of the Auto Industry, Michigan
Opera Theatre Performance Images and more. There are plans to add more
collections in 2015.

“A S SE S SM E N T I N ACT I O N ” PROG R A M
Last summer, the Libraries were selected by the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) to take part in the
“Assessment in Action (AiA)” program, an initiative that aims to further academic libraries’ efforts to participate in higher
education discussions of accountability by teaching librarians how to demonstrate their roles in student learning and success.
Over a three-year period, 300 institutions selected to participate in an AiA learning community will develop and implement
an action-learning project that assesses the impact of various aspects of libraries on student learning. Projects are led by team
leaders, which consist of a librarian and campus team members. Wayne State’s campus team includes: Librarian Judith Arnold,
Associate Provost and Associate Vice-President for Undergraduate Affairs, Joseph Rankin, and School of Library and Information
Science Assistant Professor, Deborah Charbonneau, who will be focusing the Wayne State project on the connection between
the use of librarian consultations and academic success. The project is being carried out by the AiA Task Force, which is made up
of library staff members Judith Arnold, Paul Beavers, Veronica Bielat, Cindy Krolikowski, Monique Oldfield, Sharon Phillips and
Jill Wurm. The project will help librarians fine-tune research services for students by providing data from which the Libraries can
define and enhance success strategies.

NEW DIRECTOR
Last fall, Erik Nordberg joined the Wayne State University Libraries to serve
as the director of the Walter P. Reuther Library and Archives of Labor and
Urban Affairs.
With more than twenty years of archival experience, Nordberg came to
Wayne State from the Michigan Humanities Council in Lansing, where he
served as executive director. Prior to his position with the Council, Nordberg
was the university archivist and head of archives at Michigan Technological
University in Houghton, where he played a pivotal role in creating the
Keweenaw Digital Archives, a grant-funded, searchable database of digitized
historical photographs documenting Michigan’s historic copper mining
district. The digital collection continues to grow, more than doubling in size
since its establishment in 2005.
Nordberg received a bachelor of arts in combined humanities from the University Of Ulster at Jordanstown in Northern Ireland
and a master of philosophy in Anglo-Irish literature from the University of Dublin, Trinity College in the Republic of Ireland. He
completed a master’s degree in library and information science at Wayne State University and is currently a doctoral candidate in
the program of industrial heritage and archaeology at Michigan Technological University.
The author of numerous grants, presentations and articles, Nordberg has research interests in Michigan mining history and a
pro-active stance on born-digital records in archives. “It’s important that we carefully select records and provide an environment
that we can trust not only preserve the records, but allow them to remain authentic,” said Nordberg.

E S TAB L I SH E D
With the goal of maximizing the impact and visibility of Wayne State research,
in 2014 the Libraries formed the Research Data Services (RDS) unit. Made up of
librarians Jim Van Loon and Cole Hudson and research data specialist Katherine
Akers, RDS works with Wayne State students and faculty researchers through
all phases of the research data lifecycle. From help with the planning and
publishing of data to providing education about data management through
presentations and customized training, RDS delivers expert guidance in the
organization, management and curation of research data to ensure preservation
and access.

Last summer, the family of Peter Sieruta donated his extraordinary collection of children’s literature to the Wayne State University
Libraries. The collection contains over 3,000 items, which will be added to the Ramsey Collection of Literature for Young
People, a special collection that continues to expand with award-winning titles and outstanding works. Sieruta’s collection will
enhance the Ramsey Collection by filling a gap in the young adult area. It includes contemporary literature as well as rare and
special editions of books, many of them signed by the authors. The Libraries have currently catalogued close to one-third of the
collection with plans to add the remainder of the collection to the catalog in 2015.
Peter Sieruta was a library assistant responsible for juvenile cataloguing at the Wayne State Libraries for nearly 22 years until
his death in 2012. In addition to his work at the libraries, Sieruta was an author, book reviewer and blogger that was nationally
known in the world of children’s literature. In 1989, Sieruta published Heartbeats and Other Stories, a collection of nine young
adult stories. Heartbeats attracted positive notice from School Library Journal and Publisher’s Weekly but Sieruta largely moved into
criticism and reviewing throughout the remainder of his career. In the early 1990s, he was among the first reviewers for The Horn
Book Guide, and was a regular contributor to The Horn Book Magazine from then until his death. In 2007, he began maintaining
a blog called “Collecting Children’s Books,” where he discussed older children’s books and shared information and opinions on
new books.
