What is Evidence Based Library and Information Practice and what’s in it for me? An introductory workshop
Have you ever thought about evidence based library and information practice, but wondered….
… what it is?
… what benefits it offers you?
… how you could do it?
… how you could find the time to do it?
… what tools or skills you need to implement it?
The Library & Information Research Group in collaboration with the organisers of the 6th International Evidence Based Library and Information Practice conference (EBLIP6) has designed a workshop to help you. Facilitated by successful writers and practitioners within the Evidence Based Library and Information practice field (Andrew Booth, Alison Brettle and Maria Grant), it targets all library practitioners who are interested in finding out how an evidence based approach can be relevant to their practice.
