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. Engaged or active learning experiences (like the ones you’ve described) are a fundamentally important pathway for learning. They are also important manifestations of…[Read more]

Teaching SIG on ARLISNA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoI think these kinds of workshops are a great idea for the library. They draw students in and help them feel less intimidated by the library. “The library of the future” is innovative, and that includes unconventional activities. Some students feel uncomfortable coming to the staff and asking questions. Having informal workshops, or mind…[Read more]

Teaching SIG on ARLISNA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoHi Christine,
My library does a lot of these kinds of events. We’ve had puzzle, coloring and lego tables, whiteboard prompts on random topics for the students to write/draw their responses, therapy dogs, zine making etc. As you suggested, we view these as a way to make the library a welcoming community hub – not unlike the public library. 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. If so, do you get any pushback from administration because it’s not specifically research-related? How do you justify it to those who object? At Columbus College of Art & Design…[Read more]

Shannon Marie Robinson replied to the topic ARLIS Mexico City Meeting? in the discussion
Architecture & Planning Section on ARLISNA Commons 2 years, 11 months agoHi Aimee,
The meetings are happening virtually in the weeks before or after Mexico City. I submitted a date but it may be tentative as I have not heard back from ARLIS/NA. The dates / Zoom links for all meetings will be part of SCHED and they do not want more than 2 meetings in a time slot.
So, that said I submitted Tuesday, May 2 at 12pm CDT.…[Read more]
