Participant driven events: CLIC community experiencedarklecat
TeachMeets and Library Camps (or ‘unconferences’) have both been gaining in popularity over the last few years, as events that are slightly outside of normal conferences or staff development events. A shared factor is that they are predominantly participant driven events.
TeachMeets involve short repeated sessions where participants share a teaching/presentation tip with members of the community.
Library Camps bring together a community of library staff for a day. These events take place outside of work time and are free of charge. The ‘community’ of staff who gather determine the course of the day and are all full participants. How does this ‘community’ differ from main stream library conferences, and what are the factors that draw people to participate in their own time?
In the last year CLIC, in conjunction with library staff in Wales, has hosted a TeachMeet and run a Library Camp; this session will talk about these kind of events and what benefits they provide to the community of library staff attending, as opposed to more traditional forms of training events.

CILIP Working Internationally for Libraries Conference was a one-day virtual event supported by Arts Council England, in partnership with Libraries Connected, British Library, British Council, Carnegie UK Trust, CILIP International Libraries & Information Group, and CILIP Public & Mobile Libraries Group. The 2021 Conference explored ways of connecting with library services and sector professionals from across the world to inspire and inform local library services. Speakers from a diverse range of regions – UK, Europe, Canada, Africa, and the Middle East - shared best practices, new ideas, and successful examples of international working projects.

Kansas City Public Library hosted the first Wikipedian in Residence (WiR) at a public library in the country. Explore what a WiR is, how WiRs collaborate with community members and GLAM institutions (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums), and why collaborations between Wikipedia and public libraries are mutually beneficial and have an impact.
Kim Gile, Director of Branch Services & Engagement, will reflect on the residency at KCPL and give an update on the Library’s Wikipedia journey that started in 2018.

A talk at the DH Lab at the University of Exeter in February 2019.
The British Library's Digital Scholarship Training Programme provides colleagues with the space and support to
develop the necessary skills and knowledge to support emerging areas of modern scholarship. Their familiarity with the foundational concepts, methods and tools of digital scholarship in turn helps promote a spirit of innovation and creativity, encouraging digital initiatives within the Library and with external partners. Finally, the programme of events helps nourish and sustain an internal digital scholarship community of interest/practice.
In this talk, Digital Curator Dr. Mia Ridge will share some of the lessons the team have learnt about delivering Digital Scholarship training in a library environment since it began several years ago, and some of the challenges they still face.
The Canadian Linked Data Initiative: Charting a Path to a Linked Data FutureNASIG
As libraries prepare to shift away from MARC to a linked data framework, new convergences in the metadata production activities of our libraries' technical services units, special collections, and digital libraries are becoming possible. In September 2015, the Canadian Linked Data Initiative (CLDI) was formed to leverage the existing collaboration between the Technical Services departments of Canada’s top 5 research libraries and the Library and Archives of Canada. Working cooperatively, our objective is to provide a path to linked data readiness for our institutions and leadership for the adoption of linked data by libraries across Canada. To achieve this goal, partner libraries are working across departments and institutions to create new workflows and tools and adapt to a new conceptual understanding of descriptive metadata. This presentation is a preliminary report on the progress made in five key areas of interest: digital collections, education and training, MARC record enhancement, evaluation of linked data tools and vendor supplied metadata. Building on existing initiatives, the CLDI is investigating the potential of integrating linked data elements into digitized collections, as well as MARC-based bibliographic and authority records, with the aim of fostering new and interesting pathways for resource discovery. To strengthen and expand the professional knowledge of staff, partner institutions are collaborating in the production of educational and training materials related to linked data principles and practices. The evaluation and potential development of linked data tools is another area of concentration. Finally, with the goal of changing workflows upstream, the CLDI is working to engage publishers and vendors in the linked data conversation. In addition to reporting on the work undertaken in the first year of the project, this presentation will also cover lessons learned and outline some of the new opportunities gained from working on a collaborative project that spans across multiple boundaries.

18. Challenges
But available venues have limited
capacity, and demand for places is always
high. Without external funding of some
sort it is not possible to book venues that
could accommodate a larger audience.

22. Web admin team recommendations
• Develop the website primarily as a resource for
library staff in Cardiff
• But retain some basic information about libraries in
Cardiff on the website for the benefit of the general
public
• Use the website as the hub for building a community
of library staff by sharing resources & providing
information about events
• Remove the need to log in to access the staff area
• Create social media accounts to help publicise the
site and to get library staff contributing

25. Survey aims
• to establish what kinds of barriers might prevent
members from attending events
• to ensure the training & events on offer were what
members really wanted/needed
• to explore the potential for offering less formal
networking opportunities
• to gauge what members felt CLIC’s main focus should
be

26. Survey design
Cardiff: Libraries in Co-operation
Caerdydd: Llyfrgelloedd mewn Cydweithrediad
27. Survey results – brief summary
• Good mix of respondents from the various sectors &
differing job roles
• Most respondents want to see CLIC provide an equal
mix of networking opportunities & training
• Predominantly happy with range & quality of events
currently provided by CLIC
• The greatest interest is in events which allow learning
about & visiting CLIC member libraries
• Inability to arrange cover/scheduling clashes/prior work
commitments appear to be the greatest barriers to
attendance rather than lack of interest in training on offer

CLIC events?
Opportunity to network
Opportunity to develop

My line manager does not feel it
necessary for me to attend
I did not think I w ould be eligible to
attend
The places fill up before I can put my
