Nominally it covers the year ending August 31, 1989, two months after Doug Mclnnes's term ended. The annual report gives the Librarian a vehicle for putting before the Senate, the University, and selected parts of the off-campus world, a review of what has been going on during the reporting period. This particular report also provides an opportunity for recognizing and thanking Doug Mclnnes for his contributions to the Library and the University over more than a quarter century. His colleagues and friends salute him and wish him well in his headship of the Woodward Library. The report is in the traditional format and style, with a first section presenting information in brief narrative form and a second consisting of statistical resumes. REPORT OF THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARIAN FOR THE YEAR 1988/89 Of special concern during the report year were questions relating to the Library's external relationships, the continued implementation of new technologies, and the long term solution to the shortage of space. TRIUL activities The need for close cooperation among the libraries at UBC, Simon Fraser, and the University of Victoria led to several meetings of senior library staff during the course of the report year. Principal items for discussion included the planning of library support for degree-completion programs introduced in the colleges, and proposals to share and improve access to online catalogues and other databases. Planning for degree-completion programs Following the announcement that UBC would be involved in providing degree-completion programs at Okanagan College and Cariboo College, the Library has been working with the college librarians to determine what kind of supplementary resources might be needed from the UBC Library and how these might be provided most effectively. In the college and university library proposals, emphasis was given to the early development of core collections at the colleges in support of the new courses. However, the need for supplementary materials from the UBC collections would become significant and would have to be met through improved interlibrary loan arrangements The "electronic library" The Library was invited to participate in planning for improvements in the sharing of catalogue and other information available in electronic form. A committee with wide representation from B.C. post-secondary libraries established to develop and submit proposals. Introduction of the first OPAC terminals The online public catalogue was introduced in March, 1988. Access within the Library was limited by the number of public terminals available. However, dial-up access from other campus and off-campus locations proved to be very popular. In addition, remote access to the catalogues provided to the Simon Fraser University and the University of Victoria libraries and to B.C. college libraries. Establishment of Friends of the Library Council An organizational meeting of the Friends of the Library Council was held in June 1988. Dr. P.R. Sandwell was invited to serve as its first chairman. Appointed by invitation of President Strangway, Council members include representatives of the business and academic communities and - 3 of the library profession. A list of members and Council's terms of reference are provided in Appendix L. In November at its first full meeting Council heard a presentation on the Library's plans and on current issues affecting the Library. Ceremony honoring Dr. w.c Gibson The extensive contributions of Dr. William C. Gibson to the University were acknowledged at a ceremony in the Woodward Library on September 7, 1988, where the Woodward Library's exceptional collection of historical works in science and medicine were named in Dr. Gibson's honor. As the first Chairman of the History of Medicine Division of the Faculty of Medicine, Dr. Gibson was largely responsible for the development of the collection. Physical facilities In the spring of 1989 the University decided that a proposal to provide new central library space on the old bookstore site would not proceed. Alternatives would be raised in the fall of 1989. (Planning began in February 1990 for new space to be completed by 1994/95.) Other branches of the UBC Library system for which new quarters were being planned were the Curriculum Laboratory and the St. Paul's Hospital Library Continued popularity of debit cards and new copiers The replacement of Library copiers and the use of debit cards in place of coins for photocopying have resulted in a very substantial increase in copying done on Library machines. Availability of improved copy service has also resulted in a drop in external loans as fewer materials are being charged out for copying on machines outside the Library. Senate Library Committee The major activity of the Senate Library Committee in 1988/89 was to consider the recommendations of the Library Review Committee and to submit a report of its findings to the President. The Senate Library Committee endorsed some of the recommendations, while rejecting others. Its major criticism was that the report was driven purely by financial concerns and lacked a clear sense of what the Library was, had achieved, and offered to the University. Since then some of the recommendations have been implemented, others are being considered, and still others are awaiting the arrival of the yet-to-be-appointed University Librarian. COLLECTIONS Annual budget for collections The collections budget for 1988/89 was $5,312,563, increased by 6.65 percent over the previous year's. For the year 1989/90 the budget was $5,568,563. This increase of 4.8 percent was made up of two components: 3.3 percent from the University's general increase to the supplies and expenses budget, and a special allocation of 1.5 percent as part of a long-term plan to compensate the Library collections budget for net exchange rate changes. Under this plan, the exchange rate changes for a typical package of library purchases will be calculated on a 10-year moving average basis. Over the past five years, the collections budget has increased by 29.6 percent, partly from new funding and partly from transfers of funds from the salary side of the Library budget. Year Collections budget 1985/86 $4,295,900 1986/87 4,611,900 1987/88 4,981,363 1988/89 5,312,563 1989/90 5,568,563 - 6 - The figures above refer to the basic operating budget only. In addition, some funding was available from the Pacific Rim Excellence Fund, and various specific purpose trust funds. Serial cancellations During 1988 and 1989, about 250 duplicate serial subscriptions were cancelled, with particular attention being given to the higher priced titles. The savings are gradually being applied to the purchase of new unique titles. In addition to newly published periodicals, attention must be given to the many titles which were first published earlier in the 1980's, and which the Library was not able to buy at that time. Grants, gifts, and donations Gifts in Kind Gifts to the Special Collections and University Archives Division included papers and records from Mr. John Munro, Ms. Jane Rule, Mr. Toni Onley, Dr. Harry Warren and MacMillan Bloedel. Further additions to the Malcolm Lowry collection were received from the estate of Mrs. Lowry. Donors of special books and collections included Mrs. Elizabeth Campbell, Mr. Pete Haworth, Dr. Ronald Jobe, Mr. Derek Lukin Johnston, Dr. Walter Koerner, Mr. Owen - 7 - Lauritzen, Dr. Harry Warren and Tetrad Computer Applications Ltd. Donations We note with regret the death of two of the Library's long-time donors: Mr. Samuel Lipson (the Lipson Fund for Canadian History) and Mrs. Phae Collins (the Mark and Phae Collins Fund for the Undergraduate Library). Among the notable personal donors this year were: Mr. Noel Owens, Mr. Naomichi Nishimura, Ms. Jennie Tarabulus, Ms. Carol Penfield, Mrs. Vera Pech, Ms. Colleen Sim, Dr. H. Rocke Robertson, Mr. Po Ting Ip, Dr. Kaye Lamb, and Mrs. Violet Eagles. Mr. James Phelps, Ms. Katherine Block and Mr. John MacDonald made donations in support of the Crane Library. Grants from foundations and organizations Support from the Woodward Foundation and the Vancouver Foundation was received for a joint project of the Faculty of Medicine and the Library to introduce CD-ROM MEDLINE and Computer Assisted Learning programs into the Woodward and Teaching Hospital Libraries. The Crane Library recording centre was re-equipped with a substantial grant from GO BC through the Kinsmen Foundation. This project was also supported by the Rotary Club of Vancouver. The Law Foundation of B.C. supported the purchase of special materials for the Law Library. Acquisitions of CD record players and CD recordings for the Music Library was assisted by the Koerner Foundation. The federal government Cultural Properties office made two grants during the year to support the purchase of material for Special Collections. In one case, the Vancouver Foundation's Ernest Theodore Rogers Fund also assisted with the purchase. The Children's Literature Roundtable made a donation to support the Arkley Collection in Special Collections. A number of organizations gave grants to the Special Collections and University Archives Division to facilitate the organization of collections by hiring project archivists and other staff. The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, MacMillan Bloedel and the Canadian Council of Archives were the major donors in this area. Cooperative purchase of census datatapes through CARL A sudden and very substantial increase in the cost of purchasing Canadian census data in machine-readable form prompted the Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) to negotiate a contract with Statistics Canada for a CJ - 9 - a q group purchase on behalf of its member libraries. By this means, each CARL member library may obtain the full set of data by sharing the cost of purchasing a single set of tapes and by paying the minor additional cost of having copies made. The census tapes may be accessed through the Data Library. LIBRARY SERVICES Use of the Library continued to be heavy in 1988/89. Adjustments in policies and introduction of improved facilities have resulted in some changes in traditional library service indicators. Overall, circulation decreased by 42,000 transactions, or by 1.9 percent. The greatest change occurred in the Woodward Library where the introduction of a copy machine in the reserve area and the anchoring of an additional 194 heavily used journals resulted in an 18 percent reduction in circulation for that unit. Throughout the Library photocopying increased by almost 50 percent over the previous year. Reference questions answered throughout the system increased by 8.3 percent over the preceding year, reflecting the increasing complexity of the University Library and the information gathering process. Computer assisted bibliographic searches decreased by 3.8 percent to 2,066, a direct result of end-user searching on CD-ROM. The number of orientation and instructional sessions decreased by 10 percent to 859 while the number of participants decreased by two percent to 12,405. Interlibrary borrowing and lending increased by 12.3 percent to 36,423, while document delivery among the campus and hospital branch libraries increased by 12.4 percent to 45,137. 11 Where some traditional indicators such as circulation and remote computer searches leveled off, reference service, photocopy service, document delivery and interlibrary loan increases suggest that use of library materials and services is continuing to grow. Library hours A Library Hours Task Force was asked to review existing patterns of hours of access and hours of service in the Library system, to consider the changing needs of the UBC community for Library access and service and to consider how the general public may be served with minimum detriment to services to UBC users. The resulting report recognized the need to simplify the patterns of library hours among the many library branches and divisions and to reduce the number of sessional changes to three: winter session, spring/summer session, and intersession. It recommended that hours of opening for the five larger libraries, (Main, Woodward, Sedgewick, Curriculum Laboratory and Law) should be increased. These and other recommendations of the task force will be implemented as resources and opportunity permit. Once again, the Library extended hours of opening in the largest campus libraries for the Christmas and Spring examination periods. Sedgewick, Main, Woodward and Law - 12 - provided needed study space on the weekends and in the evenings. Journal anchoring in the Woodward Library On the recommendation of the Ad Hoc Committee to Review Journal Circulation Policy in the Woodward Library, five- year files of 194 critically important journal titles were made non-circulating. These titles were in addition to the 126 titles for which circulation outside the library was already restricted. A review of user experience was proposed after one year to determine the success of this measure in improving access to the core biomedical journal literature. CD-ROM Health Sciences Libraries CD-ROM was introduced to the UBC Library in the fall 1988 when CD-Plus MEDLINE was installed in the Woodward Library and the teaching hospital libraries. The Library, the Faculty of Medicine and the teaching hospitals cooperated to provide the financial resources required. The Woodward Foundation and the Vancouver Foundation provided additional MEDLINE workstations and support to install computed assisted learning facilities in each of the health sciences libraries. 13 CD-ROM MEDLINE at Woodward is booked by users in advance for 30 minute periods. Citations may be printed or downloaded to disk. More that 2,000 sessions were booked in the first five months. Reference staff provided direct assistance for users and began group instruction during the summer, 1989. Additional workstations, linked to a local area network were to be added with Woodward and Vancouver Foundation support. Patscan Service The Patscan Service continued to grow and to offer improved information resources. CD-ROM versions of the NTIS indexes and the CASSIS indexes of American patents were added to the service. The CD-ROM version of the Canadian Patent Index is being developed by the UBC Library to be released early in 1990. TECHNICAL SERVICES AND SYSTEMS Library Technical Services The technical services divisions continued to handle high levels of work in acquiring, providing records for, and processing the variety of materials that make up library collections. Cataloguing backlogs remained fairly constant, with some prospect of increases because of staff reductions while the rate of acquisition remained level. One additional catalogue librarian's position was eliminated, with work assignments and support staff reorganized among the remaining cataloguing units. This position had provided a specialization in handling audio visual and educational materials. Reallocation of the work to a number of other catalogue librarians minimizes the impact of this loss. Expanded use of machine readable invoice data continued to improve procedures for payment and accounting, in particular for serial subscription renewals. Slow response time on the library computer became a significant factor in reduced productivity for all areas of technical services. Further degradation would lead to bigger backlogs and reduced ability to provide services. The need for increased computer capacity was recognized as urgent, for library staff as well as for good patron access. 15 Library systems Work on a new user interface continued through a project to develop a prototype system to work in combination with the existing online systems. The prototype will include the use of a windowing environment, pointing devices such as a mouse, and pull down menus. Use of color to highlight information and user choices is also planned. Requirements for expanding computer capacity were documented. Some funding was provided to maintain existing services and additional funds were in prospect. Required is a major funding initiative to provide for two critical needs: expansion of online access for library patrons, and replacement of the library circulation system. The Faculty of Education and the Library agreed to work together in using machine readable databases acquired by the Faculty. Three databases were planned to be loaded on the library computer; ERIC RIE and CJIE, and PSYCINFO. The first stage of development will provide online access for reference librarians to assess the systems support and to determine the usefulness of these databases in their work. Subsequent stages will see these and other databases online and accessible to all library users. Increased computer capacity and more public workstations are key components to this development. STAFF The number of Library staff declined during the year from 103.7 librarians and 271.3 support staff in 1987/88 to 101.7 librarians and 266.6 support staff, a reduction of 1.8 percent. The total includes ten grant-funded or self- supporting positions. Doug Mclnnes left the position of University Librarian towards the end of the report year to become Head of the Woodward Biomedical Library. He had agreed to serve until the end of June while the search for a new University Librarian took place. As a replacement had not been chosen by that time, Bill Watson was appointed Acting University Librarian as of July 1, 1989. Maureen Wilson, Head, Map Library, and Doug Kaye, Head, Wilson Recordings Collection, both took early retirement at the end of June 1989. Maureen was appointed as a reference librarian at UBC in 1959. She became Head of the Map Library in 1965 and held that position until her retirement. Doug Kaye started at UBC in 1958 in the recordings collection of the then Department of University Extension. When the collection became part of the Library in 1965 Doug was appointed supervisor. In 1968 he became Head of the Wilson Recordings Collection, which he managed until his retirement. These two retirements led to an organizational review, and the Map Library became a subunit of the Special 17 Collections and University Archives Division. The Wilson Recordings Collection became a subunit of the Sedgewick Library. Turnover among librarians was higher than usual, as staff left to pursue opportunities elsewhere. Five librarians resigned during the reporting year: Beth Anholt John Cole in 1988; and Carol Wisdom, Connie Fitzpatrick Len Mclver in 1989. Dan Heino was appointed in April 1989 and Tim Ross in August, 1989. Terry Horner, Susan Andrews, Donna Carpenter, Leonora Crema, and Ron Simmer were granted confirmed appointments. Recruiting continued during the year for three half- time Bibliographic Associates with competency in Korean, Indonesian, and Indie languages. By the summer of 1989 the Library was able to appoint candidates with the required language proficiencies. One member of the Library's support staff retired during the year. Bianca Barnes, the Library's graphic artist, took early retirement in March 1989 after nearly 20 years of service.
