“…IRC studies have consistently demonstrated that students find them a valuable addition to library services (Magi and Mardeusz, 2013a; Butler and Byrd, 2016; Rogers and Carrier, 2017; Bezet et al , 2018; Sikora et al , 2019; Bradley et al , 2020). A systematised review of IRCs reported similarly consistent levels of positive feedback (Stapleton et al , 2020). Additional student feedback and perceptions of IRCs have been identified in individual studies.…”

“…Magi and Mardeusz (2013b) reported that participants placed a high value on the specificity of consultations to individual projects. Two studies and a review reported additional affective benefits relating to increased confidence in research activities following IRCs (Magi and Mardeusz, 2013b; Stapleton et al , 2020; Bradley et al , 2020). Increased metacognition relating to knowledge of research activities was reported by Magi and Mardeusz (2013b), with participants reporting that attendance at a consultation aided them in understanding aspects of the search process they were previously unaware of.…”

“…Individual research consultations (IRCs) are a well-established student-support services (Stapleton et al , 2020). While research has demonstrated the popularity of one-on-one consultations (Magi and Mardeusz, 2013a), the high level of input required to deliver individualised support requires librarians to assess both the impact of such interventions and explore methods of maximising potential gains (Watts and Mahfood, 2015).…”

PurposeResearch consultations are a long-established means of providing support to students undertaking research activities (Stapleton et al., 2020). The literature on research consultations consistently reports high levels of satisfaction and that students value the individual, bespoke advice received via one-on-one librarian tuition. However, research consultations are resource-intensive and maximising the learning potential of consultations is a priority to justify the expenditure of time and ensure the sustainability of services. This study reports on the outcomes of a service development where students attending research consultations were offered a screencast recording of their appointment to support retention and application of information literacy skills and research processes covered in the research consultation. The study explored student use and perceptions of the service and how the recording of the appointment was integrated into research practices.Design/methodology/approachThe study used a mixed-method approach including a questionnaire and interviews. Quantitative elements explored if and how students engaged with recordings made during research consultations while qualitative elements investigated students' perceptions of the service and how content from the recordings was used to complete research activities.FindingsFindings indicated a high degree of positive feedback on the service and reveal complex user behaviours when using appointment recordings. The study demonstrates that the addition of multimedia recording during individual research consultations (IRCs) may offer significant benefits to students by improving knowledge retention and application and for librarians by reducing follow-up enquiries and increased engagement with the service.Practical implicationsThe findings of this study give an evidential basis for library and reference services interesting in incorporating synchronous recording into a research consultation service.Originality/valueThis study is believed to be the first to investigate the perceptions and use of synchronous recording of research consultations between librarians and students.

Olimpiade merupakan perhelatan olahraga terbesar karena diikuti oleh hampir seluruh negara yang ada di 5 benua di dunia yang tercermin dari 5 cincin yang saling berkait sebagai logonya. Sejak diadakan pada tahun 776 SM yang dikenal dengan olimpiade kuno hingga olimpiade modern pertama pada tahun 1896 di Athena, olimpiade tetap konsisten menggaungkan olympism sebagai filosofinya yaitu meningkatkan dan menggabungkan secara seimbang kualitas tubuh, kehendak dan pikiran manusia secara utuh. Olimpiade bukan hanya perkara adu gengsi prestasi keolahragaan tiap negara, tetapi mampu menjadi gerakan olimpiade bagi masyarakat dunia yaitu peningkatan gaya hidup aktif menjadi salah satu poin penting bagaimana olimpiade memberikan intervensi terhadap masyarakat yang semakin dipengaruhi oleh pesatnya industrialisasi terutama bagi negara berkembang seperti Indonesia. Kebijakan pemerintah diharapkan menjadi kekuatan utama sebagai pilar untuk mengokohkan bangsa, terutama bagaimana menjadikan Indonesia sebagai negara yang akan beranjak dan berusaha mengikuti ritme dunia saat ini dengan tetap menjadikan gaya hidup aktif sebagai sumber kekuatan utama dalam mengimplementasikan semangat olimpiade. Karena faktanya tidak banyak atlet Indonesia yang mampu berbicara pada ajang olimpiade menjadi gambaran nyata rendahnya kesadaran masyarakat Indonesia terhadap gaya hidup aktif, karena atlet elit lahir dari partisipasi masyarakat terhadap olahraga. Bahkan selama 68 tahun digelarnya olimpiade, Indonesia hanya mampu mengantarkan sebanyak 331 atlet atau hanya setengah dari jumlah atlet yang dikirimkan oleh China dalam sekali ajang olimpiade yaitu sebanyak 596 pada tahun 2008. Meski begitu, secara perlahan tapi pasti kebijakan pemerintah terus berupaya selaras dengan semangat olimpiade yaitu meningkatkan gaya hidup aktif masyarakat agar kedepan semakin banyak terlahir atlet-atlet Indonesia yang mampu berlaga dalam olimpiade dan mengharumkan negara
