Reading Group information has been moved from its own libguide to a tab on the Development libguide!
This will be an informal opportunity to discuss what other libraries are doing, explore areas of practice and interest and reflect on ideas in a supportive group. Reading material could be anything from a journal article, blog post or report.
Meetings will be held once per term and will take place over lunchtime for one hour. To reflect the varying interests and roles in the library, there will be rotating facilitators so we have a range of reading material and voices leading the discussion.
Benefits of engaging with reading groups include:
Look out for the meeting date and reading material which will be added to the Padlet, if you are planning to take part, please email Amy McEwan. Everyone is welcome, if you want to turn up on the day, that's fine too.
If you can't make the meeting but would still like to take part, you can add add thoughts or comments on to the discussion board on this guide in advance of the meeting. A short summary of the discussion will be added to the discussion board on this page after the meeting, so check back if you are interested.
Facilitators will be responsible for choosing the reading content and leading the discussion at the meeting. Here are some general guidelines for facilitators:
