How about …

 

‘’Everyone who works in a library is a librarian’’

 

Or

 

‘’Aren’t you all volunteers here?’’

Subject: Library myths...

 

Hi,

 

I’m thinking about Welcome Week,  library induction, call it what you will.  I would like to do something with clickers and debunking library myths, eg “you can find everything you need on Google”.    I see this being done in a lecture theatre type setting. 

 

So far I have…

 

It’s really quick to find information for my assignments  (McLibrary – no it takes time, critical evaluation, etc )

Nothing on my topic  -

Everything I need is on the internet

Library staff are too busy to help or are too busy reading books, or re-pinning their buns and adjusting their reading specs. 

Library staff will find information for me ( as opposed to giving me the skills to find it for myself)

 

Anymore out there?
