Teaching SIG on ARLISNA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoHey Christine! I would second what Carla-Mae and Lora have said. I would also add that these types of workshops are relevant to the business of libraries in a variety of ways.

It’s…[Read more]

Teaching SIG on ARLISNA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoHi librarian hive mind. I was wondering how many other librarians, esp. in art & design schools and universities, put on “fun” workshops for their students and/or faculty.
