Volunteers: the new challenge for the cultural heritage arena Sophie Visser
‘Volunteering is part of our social fabric. It supports fundamental values of inclusion and citizenship.’ These words from the European Commission also concern the role of the volunteers in the cultural heritage arena. With governments limiting their financial support, the contribution of the volunteers becomes even more vital. They play an extremely important part in preserving and presenting our cultural heritage. Nevertheless, infrastructure and tools are still largely being developed with professionals in mind. The two cases presented here offer a different perspective, putting the volunteer at the centre stage: his contribution and his needs.

The document discusses the challenges of digital curation, particularly in the mobile age. It defines curation as collecting, preserving, archiving, exhibiting, contextualizing, and interpreting. Curation is now more interactive, collaborative, and performed through social media where everyone can act as a curator. Examples are given of curating public art, oral histories, and interpreting urban landscapes through mobile tools. Key challenges discussed include content management, metadata, and making curation more dynamic and open through aggregation, remixing, and connecting projects.
Through long-term community engagement, research, and cultural documentation projects, TAEC works to empower source communities and safeguard their intangible cultural heritage for future generations in a culturally sensitive way.

A library visit is not just a number: The impact and value of public librariesChristian Lauersen
Christian Lauersen presented on the value and impact of public libraries. He discussed moving beyond quantitative metrics to understand the qualitative, individual experiences and benefits libraries provide citizens. Libraries offer emotional, intellectual, creative and social impacts through their programs, collections, guidance, facilities, and staff. Specifically, libraries function as havens for contemplation, provide enlightenment and perspective, foster togetherness and a sense of community, inspire creativity, and serve as trusted sources of information through the support of library staff. To better communicate libraries' value to society, a new language is needed that is used in political, workplace, library professional, and media contexts.
This document summarizes a presentation about the future of libraries. It discusses how libraries are changing and expanding their roles from traditional book lending to becoming community centers that provide learning resources, technology access, collaboration spaces, and cultural programming. It provides examples of new library services like laptop lending, 3D printing, and mobile apps. It also highlights strategies libraries are using to engage diverse groups and address issues like digital inclusion. Overall, the presentation envisions libraries transforming into vibrant public spaces and ecosystems that facilitate knowledge sharing, community building, and lifelong learning.
A library visit is not just a number: The value and impact of public librariesChristian Lauersen
This document discusses the need for a new language to describe the value and impact of public libraries beyond just usage statistics. It proposes examining the individual experience with libraries and understanding the emotional, intellectual, creative, and social benefits they provide. Libraries are described as havens that provide perspective, build community, foster creativity, and offer trusted staff support and resources. The document calls for developing and promoting this new framework with library professionals, media, and political leaders to better articulate the value libraries provide for citizens and society.
This document provides an overview of libraries and their evolving role. It discusses how libraries are transforming from traditional spaces focused on physical collections to becoming more community-centered places that facilitate knowledge creation, learning, and social interaction. The document highlights several trends driving this change, such as new technologies that expand access to information but also risk exacerbating inequality, the rise of online education, evolving conceptions of privacy, and empowerment of new voices. It also shares examples of innovative library programs and services that exemplify this transition, from mobile libraries and 3D printing to collaborative workspaces. The overall message is that libraries continue to play an important role in society but must adapt to remain relevant by becoming more open, people-oriented institutions that see

A library visit is not just a number: The value and impact of public librariesChristian Lauersen
The document discusses developing a new language for describing the value of public libraries beyond just statistics. It proposes examining the emotional, intellectual, creative, and social impacts on individuals and then working outward to understand broader societal benefits. Libraries provide citizens with a haven, perspective, sense of community, inspiration for creativity, and trust. The next steps are to release this framework and create a new language to change perceptions of library value in political, professional, and public discourse.
The document discusses the changing role of libraries in a digital world and proposes a vision for European library policy. It argues that libraries should (1) integrate services into citizens' daily lives, (2) develop services supporting societal goals like lifelong learning and inclusion, and (3) offer diverse programs relevant to all populations. Libraries are shifting from primarily providing access to information to delivering complex learning and community activities through both digital and physical spaces. E-inclusion is crucial to fighting social tensions, and libraries can help bridge the digital divide through ICT training programs.

Public libraries in The Netherlands: a powerful networkFers
In this presentation I will briefly present the structure of the public library network in the Netherlands, with particular emphasis on the way public library innovation is “organised”. There is currently a community of practice (CoP) organised for every specific area of library innovation which at the same time also addresses officially established national priorities, i.e. lifelong learning, development of traditional library services, education of the young population, etc. Librarians in each of the CoPs share experiences specific to their field based on which they identify future activities aimed at the development of the particular field. Librarians included in this CoP system come from libraries of all types and sizes regardless of the province or region.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

9. Inspiration space
• The space for meaningful experiences that is to say
experiences that move us
• The space should open up to the irrational, emotional and
chaotic by communicating a diversion of aesthetic
experiences.
• This can happen through storytelling or other artistic
expressions within all kinds of media, cultural forms and
genres.
• The inspiration space should make the user want to move
beyond the usual choices and to come back.
• The library space in itself may also be an experience and
work as a stage for events and cultural arrangements.
• The inspiration space especially supports realisation
(cognition)/experience and innovation.

13. Learning space
• Space where children, young people and adults can experience
and explore the world and thus strengthen their competences
and possibilities through free and easy access to information
and knowledge
• Learning is seen as a dialogue oriented process that is based
on the users’ own experiences and their wishes to define their
own learning needs
• Often takes place in informal settings which do not have
learning as the goal – learning happens through play, music and
many other activities
• Should meet the needs of especially young people for a more
experience oriented learning through the development of playful,
interactive and social learning methods.
• Learning is strengthened through the use of homework cafes,
study places, open courses and experiment areas.
• The learning space especially supports realisation
(cognition)/experience and empowerment.Knud Schulz February 2015 13

17. Meeting space
• An open, public space where citizens as a third space
between home and work can meet others who are both as
themselves and different from themselves
• Arenaes, where you can meet other people with different
interests and values and encounter opinions that challenge
you through discussions and debate, are necessary
• In the meeting space both non-committal, random encounters
can take place through lounge décor with newspapers and
café atmosphere as well as more organised meetings
• This can take place both live and on the Internet in
chatgroups, blogs or other social media.
• The meeting space especially supports empowerment and
engagement
