Reach out and Touch: Innovation to Connect with Non-Traditional Library Users at Community Colleges
Retha Hall, Central Piedmont Community College
With the proliferation of media options and information, more than ever, libraries are competing with various technological advances in efforts to maintain their visibility and relevance. To address this issue, the CPCC Library conceived and implemented “Librarians on the Go”, an innovative outreach project using technology to expand reference services and to connect with “non-traditional” library users on the Central Campus. In this session, participants will learn how the idea was conceptualized, implemented and the challenges associated with providing services at a community college. Other innovative ideas and experiences on improving and expanding services will also be shared. Through this presentation and discussion attendees will be inspired to think of innovative ways to help extend the scope of library services while creating a presence beyond the bricks and mortar.
Retha Hall is responsible for outreach and marketing, reference and instruction at CPCC’s Hagemeyer Learning Resource Center

Big Read, Big Benefits: Creating Sustainable Partnerships Across Communitiespmano
Getting the community involved can be a tricky undertaking for an academic library. Following a successful collaboration in 2013 with a local public library on its Big Read programming, this university library decided to form a team, take a leap of faith, and apply for their own Big Read grant from the NEA. Every aspect of the process, from writing the grant to planning the events, was new for the librarians on the committee, but the results were greater than anyone could have hoped: sold out events, rave reviews from participants and local media, participation from residents of two large cities, and best of all, sustainable partnerships with local organizations for future campus and library programming.

The cloak of invisibility: Mind-reading, magic & other librarian superpowersSenga White
Librarians know their “superpowers” and a collaborative mind-set is but one of them. However, they often feel like they’re wearing a cloak of invisibility when attempting to establish their role in supporting the curriculum in schools and initiating collaboration in less “traditional” areas, or outside the physical library environment. The need for such collaborative approaches in education has never been more important or urgent. They are foundational to effective pedagogy and enhance the way schools function in an increasingly networked world. (Core Education, 2018), but effective outcomes-based collaboration is not yet deeply established – so there are few friends or colleagues to learn from. (Munby & Fullan, 2016). This workshop will discuss the current New Zealand research into teacher/librarian collaboration, and explore the role of librarian leadership in this while providing examples of how and why it works.

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.
