Moira Bent of the University of Newcastle and Christine Purcell of the
University of Durham are the first winners of the £1000 UC&R Award for
Innovation.
The award is intended to reward and support an individual, group or team
pursuing innovation and excellence in the broad area of learning and
teaching, and learner support, within academic, national or research
libraries
Moira and Christine will investigate the use of a VLE to develop and deliver
collaborative library staff training, initially at Durham and Newcastle
University Libraries, but with the potential to extend this work to other
university libraries in the north east.
The UC&R panel felt that their application had clearly articulated and
impressive deliverables, with extra interest provided by the collaborative
dimension. The award winners already have experience of collaborative
training and development in the form of the LibLearn programme and we are
confident that they will disseminate their work to a wider community.
