The document summarizes a group brainstorming session on bridging the physical and virtual library. The group discussed visions of combining the physical and virtual library, important themes like facilitating interactions between the two, and mashing up the library's collection. They chose "matchmaking" as the most important angle, with ideas like interest groups that meet both physically and virtually in the library. Their proposed activities aim to get people to the library and give space for interest groups and themes. The goal is to support creative communities and open up the library.

norDist: sociallearning
This document discusses the creation of an online community of practice called norDist for adult educators in Nordic countries to further their competencies using technology. It would provide various social media spaces for profiles, discussions, interest groups, a wiki, blogs, and activities. Creating an ongoing discussion space allows educators to learn from each other through observation, sharing, collaboration and asking questions, similar to social learning theories. Elements like user profiles, active sharing of content and experiences, and ad hoc collaboration help make the community engaging and move the participants' learning forward.
Nordist sociallearning-160601182109
This document discusses the creation of an online community called norDist to support the learning of adult educators. norDist aims to bring educators together from Nordic countries and elsewhere to further develop their skills and competencies using technology to enhance learning. It will function as a community of practice where educators can observe, share, discuss, ask questions, collaborate and learn from each other through social media features like profiles, discussions, groups, blogs and activity streams. The document reflects on what encourages and inhibits participation and learning in online communities and what norDist is learning as it tests and develops its approach.
Community of Practice & Civic Infrastructure
This document discusses building civic infrastructure to support dialogue and deliberation work. It highlights common elements like facilitation and creating safe spaces. It also notes challenges like being under-resourced and isolated. The document recommends pooling resources and knowledge through communities of practice. It outlines elements needed for strong civic infrastructure like safe physical spaces, facilitation training, and fact-based media. Universities and specialized communities of practice are presented as parts of this infrastructure. The document concludes by noting the challenges of coordinating such efforts and provides contact information for further discussion.
TYPO3 Communications Workshop: Communities
Communities form for social and practical reasons. They allow people to feel a sense of belonging and to build social capital by sharing ideas, skills, and collaborating on goals. Communities can be interest-based, practice-based, or circumstance-based. Successful communities often contain subgroups that focus on specific interests, practices, or circumstances. Diversity within communities is important, both in surface characteristics and deep skills/personalities. Open source projects function best as interest-based communities that encourage diverse participation.

Libraries: Making communities smarter through connections
Libraries are making communities smarter by connecting people and providing access to information and learning opportunities. Makerspaces in libraries allow people to gather, share resources and knowledge, work on projects, and build skills. The connected learning approach in libraries empowers individual interests and passions through peer support and spaces that value all people. Libraries remain strategically important and their role is more essential than ever in modern societies by delivering services through mobile tools and inspiring people globally to act locally.
The Prosumer
The document discusses ideas for transforming libraries into hubs that allow users to create and share content. Some key ideas proposed include:
1. Creating facilities like a film studio, creative kitchen, and open mic space to allow users to express themselves through various art forms.
2. Partnering with local companies and cultural organizations to provide expertise, equipment and resources beyond what the library can offer alone.
3. Empowering citizens by giving them access to resources and technologies for creating and sharing ideas, regardless of their financial means. This can promote culture and democracy.

Unit x – John Ryland Library
Josh proposes hosting an exchange event outside the John Ryland Library to promote the library. Attendees would exchange books, possessions or knowledge. Josh and others would create flyers and internet posts to advertise. Media students would document the event from start to finish in a film.
Maria suggests fine art students create one or more sculptures out of books, newspapers or leaflets about the library near its style. Media students would film the sculpture's creation process and the final pieces.
Teo's idea is a large-scale snakes and ladders board game installation for public interaction that recalls childhood. Interchangeable cardboard box pieces could be constantly changing as the public adds their own contributions throughout the event.
Wikiludology
Despite an explosion of scholarly interest in social media platforms and projects like Wikipedia, YouTube, and Digg, a yawning chasm persists in reconciling existing theories and assumptions about what motivates user contributions with observed behavior. I argue for a shift away from conceptualizing contributions to social media projects as altruistic, reciprocity seeking, or other concatenation of intrinsic and extrinsic motivations towards understanding the participants in these projects as gamers. This paper examines the evolution of Nupedia into Wikipedia to demonstrate how early policy choices affected the ability for the participatory environment to assume ludic properties. The case offers an example of how the misattribution of motivation or failure to anticipate these ludic imperatives can undermine editors’ motivations to contribute as well as the implications of designing environments and communities that engender and reproduce a ludic space.
Nsla Project 5 Sep 09
The document discusses community created content and how libraries can better meet community needs through a digital transformation.

The gallery's program applies this framework by slowing down tours, using inclusive language, and promoting collaborative learning. Feedback from docents found the program helpful for observing tours critically and generating discussions that further develop a culture of thinking about art and teaching.
Leo appleton Internet Librarian International October 2015
This document summarizes a presentation given by Leo Appleton on the power of public libraries. The presentation discussed Appleton's research project which aims to measure the impact of public libraries on individuals and communities. Specifically, it examines how public libraries can advantage individuals and influence citizenship. The approach involves focus groups and interviews with library users and staff. A pilot study was conducted using focus groups to discuss knowledge, inclusion, and access at libraries. Analysis of the pilot found that libraries provide knowledge through resources, foster inclusion by being inclusive safe spaces, and improve access by providing open access to information. The research anticipates further findings on how libraries develop citizenship and demonstrate their value through access, integration and knowledge.

Patron-Driven Programming: Creating a Culture of Participatory Learning in Libraries Part 1 (October 2019)What makes a great place? A story about people, learning and libraries
Christian Lauersen discusses what makes a great library place. He argues that libraries should be workshops for research and cultivate thorough learning. A great library provides an open platform for education and events using digital methods, hardware, software for data analysis and visualization. It offers a dynamic, inspiring learning environment. The most valuable asset is not furniture but the librarian and users. Facilitation of activities like digital methods sessions and data sprints helps build community. A sense of belonging is important. Libraries support different kinds of learning in an alternative setup to the classic. Key to success is the evolving network between the library, universities, and other institutions. Challenges include defining the library's role and positioning itself in the research environment.

It promotes the idea of the library serving as the "linchpin" of the community by leveraging different types of capital to build vibrant communities. Specific outreach strategies are proposed, including business outreach using resources like LinkedIn and attending local events, and reengaging communities through entertainment events and book clubs. The future of libraries is discussed as needing to provide just-in-time information and act as a local hub for collaboration, aided by librarians with knowledge of community needs.
The Notable Reports Panel Strikes Again: WAPL 2017
From the Wisconsin Association of Public Libraries 2017 conference and presented by Vickie Stangel, Director, Dodgeville Public Library; Kelly TerKeurst, Director, Dwight Foster Public Library (Fort Atkinson); Gus Falkenberg, Technology and Design Director, Indianhead Federated Library System (Eau Claire); Cindy Fesemyer, Director, Columbus Public Library; Sara Gold, Community Liaison and Service Specialist, WiLS; Andrea Coffin, Community Liaison and Service Specialist, WiLS
Back by popular demand! Each year, a number of new reports about public libraries are produced by organizations like Pew, OCLC, Library Journal, The Aspen Institute, and others. These reports contain valuable information that can help us plan, develop services, and improve existing services, but unfortunately, few of us have the time to read every single one. The goal of this session is to help attendees get an overview of those reports and their implications for our work. Each panelist will share a summary of a report they believe is significant and discuss how they have used or will use the information at their library. Attendees will be encouraged to share other reports and insights that have mattered to them, too!
Guelph public presentation
The document provides an overview of Stephen Abram's keynote presentation titled "FrankenLibraries or Librarytopia?" given at the Guelph Public Library on June 7, 2016. The presentation discusses potential futures for libraries, including the increasing role of technology, changing user needs, and new skills required of librarians. It raises questions about libraries' core purpose and strategies for remaining relevant through disruption. The presentation also provides examples of emerging trends and ideas that could impact libraries, such as makerspaces, augmented books, marketing on social media, and libraries supporting e-learning.
Community Generated Databases for NY State History Conference 2013
This document discusses community generated databases (CGDBs) which utilize volunteers outside of traditional organizations to create searchable historical records and collections. It provides examples of the Church Records Preservation Committee, New York Heritage, and Viewshare projects. CGDBs make collections more accessible and useful by indexing, transcription, and digitization done by community volunteers. Standards and training are important to ensure quality. CGDBs can unlock underutilized collections and engage new audiences through volunteer contributions.
Crowd Sourcing of Library Services
This document summarizes a panel discussion on crowdsourcing reference and user services in libraries. The panelists discuss challenges like distinguishing good contributions from bad, systematic biases, and keeping contributions up to date. They also provide examples of how platforms like LibraryThing, Birds of North America, and Encyclopedia of Life have addressed issues of scalable curation, systematic biases, and the update problem. One panelist discusses her research on CrowdAsk, a crowdsourcing platform for student questions at Purdue University that aims to provide contextual answers and strengthen online communities.
Age Awareness
What stereotypes do we have around growing older? Are these realistic or do we fall victim to what we hear and see in media? This interactive session will give the opportunity to reflect on how we label different generations and ways in which we can break down barriers around ageing.

The document outlines the agenda for the first day of the Ice Camp 2010 conference, including welcome and introductory sessions in the morning followed by an introduction to challenges in the afternoon, with the strategy group introducing 6 challenges for participants to reflect on and provide ideas for, related to topics like families, prosumers, visualization, popularity, business models, and reclaiming the future.
Branding pecha kucha
The document discusses creating a brand for a library. It notes that while libraries were traditionally associated with books, they now focus on relationships, development, and innovation. When creating the library brand, the first step is to create ground rules with staff, the second is to involve users and the community, and the third is to design the physical space to give room for people and allow for change. The proposed brand values for the library are to be APPLE - Available, Proud, Present, Listening, and Efficient.

New Model for Public Libraries
The document summarizes the key recommendations from a 2010 Danish report on transforming public libraries. It recommends that libraries develop new concepts for physical spaces, establish partnerships, and create flexible services. It also presents a four room model for libraries with spaces dedicated to inspiration, learning, meeting, and creative performance. The model is intended to help libraries reimagine their services and activities to better serve communities.
Final challenge fabriries
The group proposes an idea called "The library to go" to help families have quality time together on public transportation through interactive activities, spaces, and content from the library. They focus on developing games for families to play together or competitively based on locations, news, and trivia. Implementing this idea would require partnering with public transit agencies, game developers, and others to develop a pilot project testing mobile games accessible through tickets that make traveling more fun while promoting libraries and green transportation. The goal is to increase library users and brand recognition through innovative experiences for busy families.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
