Lynch Syndrome Educational Workbook

We have created a workbook about Lynch Syndrome, a genetic condition that means an individual is at high risk of developing certain cancers, and family testing. It is important that patients with Lynch Syndrome tell their family members about their condition so their family members understand their risks and can be tested for Lynch Syndrome too. We are testing our workbook with a small group of patients with Lynch Syndrome to understand if the workbook is helpful in managing their condition and talking to family members.

Understanding School Mental Health Supports for Adolescents with Suicide Risk during COVID-19

Mental health care for adolescents at-risk to suicide is often provided in school settings and school professionals play a role in suicide prevention by fostering a sense of connectedness to schools. The practice of social distancing to reduce the spread of COVID-19 has disrupted these school-based mental health services and left adolescents with few opportunities to connect with peers or adults outside their home making them vulnerable to suicide. Despite these challenges, this time period affords an opportunity to learn how to mitigate the impacts of this disruption, providing insights that extend to school closure related to inclement weather, natural disasters, and extended leaves due to mental health crises (e.g., hospitalization) faced by adolescents with suicidal urges. The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of parents and adolescents with suicidal behaviors receiving school-based mental health services and supports during COVID-19. This study aims to provide

Technological Shifts in Academic Libraries

Academic libraries have always needed to be responsive to changes in emerging technology over time. Adopting or integrating new library technologies requires librarians to acquire and develop proficiency in new skills. In recent decades as academic libraries have continued to become ever more digitized, this has resulted in a growing need for librarians to gain new technological skills. This qualitative study will use focus groups of academic librarians to explore what current technological shifts academic librarians are experiencing, what skills are most needed to navigate those changes, and how academic librarians are gaining those new skills. This study aims to gain insight into current factors impacting technology in academic library contexts like the continued impacts of Covid-19 and AI, factors unaccounted for in the existing literature. The results of this study will be of interest to current and future academic librarians, library administrators, and LIS educators.
