Trends | Tools, Publications & Resources The Center for the Future of Libraries works to identify trends relevant to libraries and librarianship. This collection is available to help libraries and librarians understand how trends are developing and why they matter. Each trend is updated as new reports and articles are made available. New trends will be added as they are developed. Trends will be organized into seven categories: Society, Technology, Education, the Environment, Politics (and Government), Economics, and Demographics (STEEPED). If you have suggestions for additional information that could expand our coverage or ideas for additional trends that should be included, please contact the Center. Organization and Classification of Trends Many futurists and trend scanners encourage the organizing or classifying of trends to help improve our understanding of trends, piece them together, and to ensure a broad view of the trends shaping our world.

I’m currently the Principal Lead, Digital Pedagogy and Curriculum at the University of Southern Queensland. Teaching and learning Teaching and learning has been a passion throughout my academic career. From 2017 to 2019, I worked in a role that didn’t involve actively teaching, but I continued to work on research in the teaching and learning space. In my current role, I lead a team of academics who work on digital pedagogy and curriculum innovation projects. In the past, my teaching has been primarily focused in the Information Management and Library and Information Practice majors of a Master of Information Science program. I have a background in teaching dual mode cohorts, with both internal and external students who move fluidly across study modes from course to course and even week to week.

W. 11th & Bluff It started as a joke. My friend Jackie was describing a complicated cheesecake recipe she was baking for a party while I was browsing through the smoothie recipes on a vegan blog, when I stumbled across a recipe for Raw Vegan Strawberry Cheesecake*. I immediately suggested she switch recipes, to which she responded, "How can it be cheesecake if there isn't any dairy!?" A year later Jackie has come to Dubuque for a visit, and I immediately realize that this is my chance to have someone who knows how to bake food help me in the creation of the mysterious raw vegan strawberry cheesecake."Wouldn't you rather I show you how to make a real cheesecake?" she asked. I've seen other libraries post reviews of recipes from their favorite cookbooks, and I knew that our collection includes vegan cookbooks, so all that was left was to identify a recipe and bake a cheesecake. In the end, we decided to try making two different vegan cheesecakes: ~Sarah, Adult Services
