Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Content available on LibGuides in the academic library context would benefit from being viewed and curated/edited as individual and distinct collections. Viewing LibGuides through this lens provides academic libraries with a new perspective for resolving the well-documented user experience issues that afflict this mode of information delivery. Novel considerations that emerge from this approach include: a) the value of formalizing a collection acquisition policy for individual LibGuides; b) the importance of creating content responsive to emerging research directions; and c) an emphasis on the need for weeding and deselection processes. Although the author anticipates especial resistance to the idea that content on LibGuides would benefit from regular weeding, from the stance that virtual content takes up minimal space, this paper argues that the prioritization of high-quality, curated content in the era of the attention economy is a practice of prime importance.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
