5.6 PLA Elizabeth Szkirpan on quantifying library services for university success metrics
On today’s episode we have an interview with Elizabeth Szkirpan, Collections and Discovery Specialist at Harvard Business School's Baker Library, who is in conversation with Katie O'Hara-Krebs, social media manager for our journal portal: Libraries and the Academy. Elizabeth Szkirpan's new article for portal is entitled "Library Services Contributing to Institutional Success at R1 Universities: An Exploratory Mixed-Source Quantitative Model." Her article, which is available open access through Project MUSE, takes a look at how academic libraries are challenged in justifying their value in the current business-oriented higher education environment, particularly as non-revenue generating units with increasing costs, and how academic libraries can develop metrics to translate library service into key institutional performance indicators. This article, along with rest of this issue of portal: Libraries and the Academy is open access, available to read for free, thanks to the Project MUSE Subscribe to Open initiative. Elizabeth Szkirpan is a library and information studies professional with a research focus on the history of library technical services and business-adjacent practices for academic libraries. She currently works at Harvard Business School's Baker Library, where she assists with collection development and electronic resources licensing.

5.5 ELH Richard Gabri on race, liminality and passing in The Great Gatsby
Today on the podcast, we talk with Richard Gabri about his new article for ELH, “All White in the End: From the Passage of James Wait to the Passing of James Gatz; Intertextuality and the Riddle of Race in The Great Gatsby.” Building on the work of Carlyle Van Thompson, whose 2004 book The Tragic Black Buck: Racial Masquerading in the American Literary Imagination explored the ways that Jay Gatsby can be read as a white-passing Black man, Gabri and his high school students began a literary exploration of the classic novel, and discovered fascinating intertextual links between Fitzgerald's titular character to James Wait, the protagonist of Joseph Conrad's controversial novella known as The Children of the Sea. Gabri links Gatsby’s racial passing to Fitzgerald’s rewriting of Conrad’s James Wait, a Black imposter whose presence aboard the ship "Narcissus" produces projection, suspicion, and moral crisis. In pre-press, the article has already garnered a great deal of attention, with over 8000 downloads. In 2024, Gabri and his students traveled to the American Literature Association conference in Chicago, where they presented their findings — becoming perhaps the first high school students to present at ALA. Last year, as The Great Gatsby celebrated its 100th anniversary, the research received mainstream press attention, including an article from Bay Area PBS affiliate KQED. “All White in the End: From the Passage of James Wait to the Passing of James Gatz; Intertextuality and the Riddle of Race in The Great Gatsby” is slated to publish in the summer 2026 issue of ELH, and will be available #OpenAccess at Project MUSE. Richard Gabri teaches high school English at Bentley School in Lafayette, California, and holds a PhD in Comparative Literature from Northwestern University.

5.4 RHE Garcia and Morgan on Segmented Governance at HSIs
Today on the podcast, we talk with education scholars Gina Ann Garcia and Demetri L. Morgan about their recent article for Review of Higher Education, entitled “Mission-Based vs. Enrollment-Based Institutions: Segmented Governance at a Catholic Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI)” This article explores the role of governing boards of Hispanic Serving Institutions in advancing “servingness” — in other words, the embodiment of an identity for serving Latines, and the authors study this through the lens of the ways trustees at one Catholic Hispanic Serving Institution make sense of their organization’s identity. Garcia and Morgan conclude with their recommendation that HSIs trustees must understand their institutions as unique, and that governing boards have a distinct role in influencing “servingness.” The Review of Higher Education is one of our #S2O #OpenAccess journals, so this article, along with all of the issues from this volume year of the Review of Higher Education is free for everyone to read at Project MUSE.
