Lego® Play: Implementing a Culture of Creativity & Making in the Academic Lib...Megan Lotts
May 2015 “Lego® Play: Implementing a Culture of Creativity & Making in the Academic Library”. Invited Speaker at Westchester Library Association (WLA) Annual Conference. Tarrytown, New York.
"Being a More Visible Support for LGBTQ* Communities – What Some Canadian Libraries are Doing to Promote LGBTQ* Services, Inclusivity, and Community Engagement" is Part 2 of "Nowhere to Turn, Nowhere to Go," representing a greatly expanded update from the previous version.
Part 1 is a separate SlideShare file entitled "Library Service and Collection Policies and Strategies for Supporting LGBTQ* Communities."
The core conviction is the same as for Part 1: Librarians are catalysts for social change and personal transformation.
Part 2 shows in vibrant visual images what some Canadian libraries -- post-secondary and public -- are doing to support and promote LGBTQ* services.
It also challenges viewers who are library service providers -- and at the same time it informs viewers who are library service users -- to address the question of: If there aren’t any now, how could you create LGBTQ* inclusive programs and services at your library?
Suggestions for promotion and advocacy to support LGBTQ* communities are addressed, but they are just suggestions. Visuals and narratives in this presentation show what 15 Canadian libraries in these two sectors are doing to support LGTBQ* populations, from specialized collections and reading lists to Pride parade engagement to the creation of public library GSAs to myriad events, workshops, guest speakers, special celebrations, collaborations and partnerships, and library volunteer staff groups.

South Brooklyn Branch Library : Public Meeting #2ksuCUDC
Presentation given at the second of 2 Public Meetings for the South Brooklyn Branch of the Cleveland Public Library. The meeting took place on July 13, 2016.
Presentation on conference 'Stadt der Ströme' - City of Flows in Potsdam. Presentation of Aarhus Urban Mediaspace as an example on how a new library building changes the town, changes the library building as a concept and how the library functions change from a building for books to a building for citizens and relations
The success of libraries in the future will be determined by its ability to create stories rather than provide them. One way to accomplish this is by putting technology and people together so patrons become creators in makerspaces or other learning environments. Discover great new learning technologies and techniques for patrons, and how to build your new fablab or hackerspace. Arm yourself with facts for having interactive spaces to get buy-in from everyone from staff to public to the IT teams. Lastly, we will discuss ways to continually train and engage the staff so that your environment will constantly evolve.
Have you ever wanted to bring new technologies like iPads, podcasting or video editing labs to the children and teens in your libraries, but felt like you can't even enter the discussion because funding is so tight? This program from the 2014 ALSC Institute addresses those concerns.

In 2009, the incredible power of social media was demonstrated across the state during the Save Ohio Libraries campaign. Social media is an entirely new form of communication, and many of the old rules about communicating with our patrons no longer apply. Doing social media effectively takes more than just setting up a Twitter or Facebook account. It takes work and expertise to use this medium successfully. Learn the nitty-gritty of doing social media so it matters.

Presented at PSLA Conference 2015
project description of story- and data-driven qualitative brand audit/market research for public libraries seeking to demonstrate ROI to their stakeholders via innovative community sentiment/insight mapping techniques
Presented by Betha Gutsche at ARSL, 9 September 2017, St. George, Utah (USA).
Learn from the dynamic experiences of fifteen small libraries, who reimagined and reconfigured “smart spaces,” where community members co-create, participate in hands-on learning, and strengthen social connections. You’ll learn how to uncover community needs, interpret the input, generate ideas and prototype those ideas with simple, low-cost materials. It’s transformation!
A program called "Top Library Building Trends" that was conducted at ALA Annual 2010 (June 28, 2010) by LLAMA BES.
A panel of architects, librarians and consultants will provide an overview of new and exciting ideas in planning public and academic library facilities. Topics will include the rethinking of spaces for services, new building design, and other “must have” items to keep your library up-to-date. Each panelist will provide a brief presentation with slides. The entire panel will then field questions from the audience.
Speakers: Kimberly Bolan Cullin, Providence Associates LLC, Indianapolis, IN; Joan Frye Williams, Sacramento, CA, Library Consultant and Futurist; Barbara Norland, District of Columbia Public Library, Senior Librarian, Building Projects; Jeffrey Scherer, Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle, Ltd.

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.

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.

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.

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.

72. ER&L: #IdeaDrop House
Sandy and Bonnie Tijerina from ER&L
found the perfect location for the
IdeaDrop house, a space not far from
the convention center where people
came together to connect, share ideas
and discuss important topics in
libraries and beyond. With the help of
their fabulous AV tech Albert, the
house not only live streamed
conversations from librarians and
thought-leaders, there was a
"confessional" where people could
record their thoughts on SXSW and
librarianship. They also live streamed
the Ed Snowden simulcast so we could
avoid the crowds, enjoy mimosas and
watch together from the comfort of
the couch.
79. EveryLibrary
EveryLibrary ensured we were well
fed and well connected over the
course of the weekend, sponsoring
breakfast each morning at the
IdeaDrop house and meet-ups at
our favorite Austin jaunt Mugshots.
John Chrastka, a 2014 Mover and
Shaker, talked with start-ups and
venture capitalists about how
investing in libraries is investing in
a healthy economic future. At
breakfast each morning, we'd
discuss our successes from the day
before, what we were excited
about, what we had planned for
the next day.
80. ULU/VLB
The radical team of Christian
Zabriskie and Lauren Comito
took to the streets of Austin

Brigade, conducting story
times and street reference
for awe-inspired passersby.
The passion of this power
duo is infectious, and they
brought fresh ideas to this
year's efforts.

81. Library Test Kitchen
A serendipidous and delightful
addition in 2014 was the presence of
the Labrary, Library Test Kitchen's
prototype library space out of
Harvard. Jeff Goldenson and Jessica
Yurkofsky are two of the coolest
people you'll ever meet and
converged on the lawn of Austin's
O'Henry Museum to show off their
student-designed library machines.
They provided inspiration and
participation to SXSWi attendees,
showcasing the possibilities and
creativity that abound in libraries.

141. Want to help?
Ringmeister
• Coordinate people & partners (within and outside of LAM), be accountable, inspire, lead, roll
up sleeves, ensure it happens, whatever it is...
Logistics Team
• Make plans; keep us ahead and confident; head-off last-minute frenzies; provide logistics at
major milestones (i.e. physical events at ALA MW and SXSWi); keep the curves rounded and
road rock steady...
Marketing & Branding Team
• Keep lib*interactive informed; keep world informed about lib*interactive; promote
panelpicker submissions and voting for library-oriented panels among libraries; solicit press
and blogger coverage; coordinate media opportunities with #ideadrophouse; keep our brand
clear and consistent; spread the love the the four corners of the earth...
Budget and Fundraising
• Someone’s gotta pay for all this stuff. Creative fundraising ideas, execution and collection.
Guide budget partnerships (with marketing team) for sponsorships or co-branding…
SXSW site impact team
• Save $ where needed, spend where needed. Seek out & cement mutually beneficial
relationships to ensure sxswLAM mindshare at the conference. Create focused, impactful
approach. Reissue legacy ideas (libraryboxen?) and find new avenues. Working with logistics
and budget team, coordinate event presence, cheers bar, parties, and other groovy stuff.
