Supporting the learner in the digital age: role and impact of libraries across all sectors: study afternoon 10th December 2010, Loughborough University
Libraries and information services in all sectors are developing roles and services around supporting the digital learner. In these times of financial constraints, it is even more important that library staff who work across the sectors can learn from each other. The purpose of this study afternoon event is to both support the sharing of good practice as well as allow librarians to explore common issues and concerns.
The event is aimed at all library staff with an interest in on-line services and/ or digital learner support. Places are limited so it is recommended that a place is reserved as soon as possible. Please contact Katie Jeffers, Library Administrator at Loughborough University Library (e-mail: [log in to unmask] or telephone 01509 22 2341) if you wish to attend and/ or need further information. A charge of £10 will be made to cover costs with money collected on the day (and a receipt given in return). Further details are below:
