Dear collective wisdom,

 

I’m plotting a series of workshops next year where I’ll use play (either making things or playing/making games) to get people to talk about information skills / academic skills in a library setting – very brief outline here: https://library.hud.ac.uk/blogs/library/blog/2013/06/25/creative-library-workshops/

 

I’m hoping that some of the things created (especially games?) could be used by the library afterwards with a bit of extra work…

 

Anyone done anything similar? Any tips, stuff to read, pointers of any sort before I pin it down a bit more?

 

Thanks,

 

Andrew
