Some students feel uncomfortable coming to the staff and asking questions. Having informal workshops, or mind…[Read more]

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]
