9. NEXT STEPS
• Do you like this meeting format?
• These meetings are termly – would you prefer more meetings? Or maybe a termly
meeting along side a rolling programme of drop-in sessions on different resources?
• To include as many staff as possible we will run these meetings on different days of the
week.
• Ideas for hands-on sessions – Libguides (for those staff who need it), Mindview (good
for producing flowcharts), Canva (for creating images), how to make a simple
screencast. Have a look at the Resource tab on the Learning Lab guide.
• Could we have a volunteer to send out a poll (maybe just a simple Doodle poll) to ask
what resource staff would like to try at the next meeting?
