The library offers many resources for patrons beyond just books. It provides free access to Ancestry.com for researching family history, as well as access to seven local county genealogy databases. Librarians are available to help patrons use these genealogy resources. The library also supports literacy in the community by providing materials and assistance to book clubs, and hosting events like a poetry contest for National Poetry Month and a workshop on health and wellness.
The document discusses strategies for libraries to better advocate for themselves and frame their value. It suggests that libraries should focus on being influential rather than advocacy, use verbs to describe their positive impacts, and emphasize the human staff that contribute to success. The document also stresses the importance of communicating value, impact, and positioning to stakeholders over just providing statistics, and of collecting personal stories from users to highlight the library's importance.
Escaping the Echo Chamber: Advocacy outside our own circle. Ian Clark
A presentation delivered at Lighting the Future - a joint SLG, SLA & YLG week-end course in June 2012.
The presentation covers the how, why and what of the national library advocacy organisation, Voices for the Library.
The document discusses how humans make war like a game, destroy natural spaces, and spend too much time being sedentary. However, humans can achieve any goal if focused, though the outside world can feel lonely and people value superficial things. Simple things can become complex, but humans continue innovating despite problems and are not limited by space.
The library welcomes visitors and provides information about upcoming events, including a book fair during parent-teacher meetings and a visit from author John Green. QR codes throughout the library allow users to access additional digital content. The librarian's roles include teaching research skills, purchasing books, assisting teachers and students, and promoting reading.
This document provides guidance on marketing the library through effective communication strategies. It emphasizes that libraries must promote themselves in order to attract users, as people will not automatically know about improvements or new offerings. The key recommendations are to clearly define the target audience, positioning, promises, and desired actions when marketing the library. Specific tactics discussed include newsletters, displays, events, and finding creative ways to engage both regular and new users. The overall message is that libraries need an intentional promotion plan to build awareness and encourage greater use.
Conversations in the International Librarian Networking Program: USA and Lith...IRRT ILNP
The document summarizes conversations between Amy Taylor of the Johnson City Public Library in the USA and Paulina Sutkutė of the M. Valančius Public Library in Lithuania as part of an international librarian networking program. Both libraries provide resources and safe community spaces. While some programs differ, the purpose of serving patrons remains the same. The participants discovered similarities and differences in their work and cultural perspectives, and hope to continue collaborating, including a potential teen program.
The document summarizes a strategic planning process undertaken by the Stratford Public Library to gather community input on envisioning the future of the library. Over 150 community members participated in visioning and collaboration sessions, sharing over 150 themes and stories. The data was analyzed to identify 7 key themes around how people think about libraries and segmented by participant type. Insights showed values like trust, love of books, and connection. The library is challenged to tell its brand story, provide accessible services and spaces for various needs, and serve as a participatory community hub with no walls.

Kate McGuinn and Alison Sharman, University of Huddersfield
Broaden my Bookshelf (BMB) is an initiative to increase the range of authors represented in the University of Huddersfield Library. The main focus is on books written by marginalised people (e.g. from a Black, Asian or minority ethnic background and/or who identify as LGBT+). It was launched in October 2018 and is delivered in collaboration with the University of Huddersfield Students Union (UHSU). It grew out of our desire to work with UHSU on improving the quality and breadth of reading lists, along with a growing awareness of issues raised by the Why is my curriculum White? Campaign.
BMB also aims to encourage and assist lecturers to diversify their reading lists. This led to the creation of a Reading List Toolkit in 2020. The Toolkit provides a rationale for decolonising and diversifying reading lists with testimonies from minoritized students. It also includes a checklist for lecturers to self-assess their lists, also access to the BMB book collection and relevant journal collections as well as less traditional resources, including video playlists and podcasts.
Throughout the period since 2018 the BMB team has worked to raise awareness of the campaign by organising events such as panel debates and an author event with the author and photographer Johny Pitts. We have also taken BMB out to the schools of the university with “roadshow” events and gathered feedback from students about their experiences of the curriculum from a diversity perspective. We have also promoted BMB each new academic year using a variety of print and social media, including videos created by the UHSU Education and Equalities Officers. Our latest promotional event was a Human Library which we ran at the university Teaching and Learning Conference on 28th June 2023.
This presentation was delivered at Reimagining Higher Education: journeys of decolonising at De Montfort University, Leicester, on Wednesday 8th November 2023.

Research found that 14 eighth-grade avid readers described reading pleasure with sophistication and said pleasure supported their engagement with texts. Students said reading helped them learn about themselves and what they could be by imagining themselves in situations from books. They also discussed how the Harry Potter series gave a sense of belonging and bonded them with peers who shared the experience.

This session will provide information on how the Mortola Library at Pace University (Pleasantville, NY) used the Human Library program to build community through the sharing of unique experiences from university community members through the borrowing of human books. Steven Feyl and Phil Poggiali will provide lessons learned from the conceptualization, planning, implementation, and reflection on the program experience.
This document discusses applying Amartya Sen's Capability Approach to support for students with Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs). It argues that the Capability Approach provides an alternative to the medical model of disability as deficit by focusing on what students can achieve and their individual capabilities rather than their limitations. The document examines how the Capability Approach emphasizes individual agency and well-being over diagnostic labels. It suggests reframing support for SpLDs around student capabilities and functionings in order to empower students.

The document discusses strategies to close the attainment gap between BME and other students at Solent University. It provides data showing Solent's BME student population is 19% of the total, with attainment gaps ranging from 15-33% depending on the school. A literature review identified complex factors contributing to the gap. Solent's strategy includes interventions like assignment preparation sessions and submission checklists, piloted in a HEFCE-funded project involving other universities. The goals are empowering staff and mainstreaming inclusive practices to support 100 units in rolling out the interventions.
The purpose of this paper is to explore the higher education space and employability agenda through the lense of Gamification. The Higher Education landscape is being shaped by many agendas; employability is a key theme in this. Employability and the development of skills, knowledge and attributes of graduates form the basis of our programmes and any enablers to develop credible policy and change in this area is positive. The growth of the consumerist paradigm in Higher Education is problematic. Students relationships with their HE Institution and tutors are changing, and not for the better. This paper will set out the potential for using Gamification to move higher education learners from passive learners to engaged learners, through the use of Gamification in teaching.
Lecture capture technology allows for recording of lecture sessions using software. A study examined perceptions of lecture capture from multiple stakeholders including lecturers, students, and learning technologists. Surveys found that overall, lecture capture was perceived to be efficient, cost effective, and a success. However, there were mixed views on whether it enhanced interactivity. Duration of lecture capture use positively correlated with perceived efficiency but negatively correlated with perceived failure. Perceived cost also positively correlated with perceived failure. The research is ongoing and will include interviews with additional stakeholders like university management and software developers.
