Dear Friends,
How can you tell if a story is fake news or contains "alternative facts"? SA国际传媒 librarians have teamed up with faculty to offer workshops and integrate analysis and evaluation into courses. In this issue of @SA国际传媒_Library, you鈥檒l read how the Library's Head of Instruction & Assessment worked with a core English class to create a guide for the public about fake news, media bias, and editorial perspective.
I believe everyone should have access to the research and scholarship conducted by faculty as a matter of social justice. This is why SA国际传媒 promotes Open Access, a movement to make faculty research and publications available to everyone for free. The Library participates in open access through , our online institutional repository. We also partner with organizations that advocate for open access and publish open access articles and books.
Because of your interest and support, we are able to develop forward-thinking initiatives like these. We were thrilled this year when our efforts to innovate and transform were recognized with a prestigious national award. Thank you for all you do to support SA国际传媒 and the University Library.
Jennifer Nutefall
