This document discusses building the digital capability of libraries to tackle digital exclusion. It outlines that libraries are well positioned to play a role in digital inclusion due to their local reach and accessibility. The Library Digital Inclusion Fund pilot project found that libraries increased digital skills and confidence for over 1,600 learners. To further build digital capability, the document recommends that libraries use digital inclusion tools, secure training and resources, improve data collection, and develop sustainable digital champion programs.

Competition for Library Services
Larry Nash White, East Carolina University
In today’s information service economy, information users and customers have choices like never before as to where they obtain their information. Information seekers can literally obtain information from any where in the global market place, so the library’s service environment is experiencing increased competition for customers like they never have before. To complicate the situation further, the service environment of libraries is becoming more competitive at a time when resources to operate libraries are becoming more difficult to obtain.
In order to strategically respond to these challenges, today’s libraries need to show evidence of understanding the global market place. In order to do that, they need to compete for customers, resources and community connections in innovative and strategic relationships with stakeholders. The library workplace has to have cultures and processes that support continuous innovation and entrepreneurial development or services and their delivery processes. Library leaders need to demonstrate visionary leadership that incorporates both “high touch” and “high tech” in allowing the library customer to shape and control their library experience to best meet their information needs.
The presentation will review the competitors and how they are competing in the information service economy and how libraries are responding to this challenge. Examples of competitors, competitive practices, and research of library response to increasing competition will be presented. Environmental scanning, survey data, and real life examples will be used to present a picture of the current competition of the library service environment and whether libraries are demonstrating evidence of understanding the global market place.
Dr. White is an Assistant Professor and Co-Interim Chair of the Department of Library Science at East Carolina University.

Librarian building blocks; or, how to make the ideal librarianDom Bortruex
"Librarian building blocks" will explore recent changes and needs in librarianship, introduce strategies for learning new skills, and inspire participants to implement these skills. This presentation is for a general audience and will cover skills for all libraries. To build the ideal librarian, we determined what skills and knowledge a contemporary librarian needs to succeed. Since job postings and MLIS curriculum reflect current, popular trends in librarianship, we developed a data harvesting Python script that gathered the data for more than 600 librarian job postings and MLIS curriculum content. Based on this data, we will present which skills are being taught and which skills need to be taught. The presentation will explore what these changes in technology and librarianship mean for current librarians and how they can stay up to date in the continuously evolving field of librarianship.

Getting Tenants Online: Digital Inclusion & Social HousingHelen Milner
Many people who live in social housing (public housing) are on low income or older making them much more likely to lack basic online skills. They are also likely to benefit from online savings, and will need to interact with Government online too. I've been working with Housing Associations for three years advising on how to help tenants to get those digital skills they need. Some information about the Digital Deal programme - £400,000 grants for social housing. And Stats and facts about Housing & Digital Inclusion.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

10. Library Digital Inclusion Fund
• October 2015-April 2016
• 16 library services funded across England, delivered in
over 200 branches
• Over 1,600 people supported to gain basic digital skills
o/w over 800 gained digital health literacy
• Reached vulnerable people
• Different models tested: partnership, tablet lending,
mobile classroom
11. Library Digital Inclusion Fund - findings
• Learners improved their digital skills and confidence
• Libraries increased local awareness of their services
• 87% of Library Services will continue using Learn My Way, 62% to
capture data on digital skills
• 94% formed at least one new partnership, 73% thought the project
helped them raise awareness of their work with local authorities
• Staff have become digitally engaged and some Library Services are
continuing to deliver digital inclusion
12. LDI Fund - feedback from libraries
Doncaster Libraries
“The UK online centres
network provides support
and a framework for us to
deliver one to one IT help
sessions to people who really
need a helping hand in
getting online”
Barnet Libraries
“Being part of the UK online
centres network has helped
us to develop new ways of
supporting Digital Inclusion in
our local communities”
Derbyshire Libraries
“Learn My Way helps us to
focus on a clearly identified
local need to help people in
Derbyshire to develop their
basic online skills”
13. The opportunity for libraries
• Libraries ideally positioned to play a significant national role
in tackling digital and social exclusion and the £63 billion
digital skills gap
• Mobile is essential in delivering outreach and engaging older
and vulnerable people
• Potential channel shift savings: £493 pp/pa, if similar levels
of activity across all 151 library services in England = £7.5m
• Libraries are not demonstrating their impact to
commissioners as strongly as they could – better data
collection would help
14. ● Use digital inclusion tools
● Secure training and resources
● Better data collection
● Build sustainable capacity
Building digital capability (1)
Eg. Learn My Way v4
Building confidence/skills
Demonstrating impact to LAs
Digital Champions: ‘cascade’
17. ● Encouraging more Library Online Centres and use of #digilibraries
● Support to make the most of Learn My Way v4
● Promotion of training/resources and Digital Champion training
● Sharing case studies of successful models of digital inclusion, data and
impact, and interaction with local authorities
● Working with national partners: SCL, CILIP, Libraries Taskforce
Next steps
