LIBJAM

 

  • While the program is being compiled, we will be libjamming.
  • Take 3 minutes (and no more) to tell the group some ways that your library or you personally are "getting hands dirty" - it may involve going where the users are, trying innovative service, keeping something that has worked well for years, collaborationg with different parts of the community, putting the library "out there" in the community, trying new tools, stepping outside of the traditional role. 'You can do a PowerPoint, painting, clay modelling, interpretive dance,show a mini movie, act it out, recite a poem about it , just say your bit - whatever.

  • Curtin University Library - the story of a library blog

*

Curtin University Library blog

started 2005, initially few comments only spam now lots of comments no spam. Students enjoy opportunity to offer their opinions and participate. Comments aren't moderated. let faculty know about new books and library classes. good place to offer tips. rss feed from blog goes straight into student portal.

Also have a staff blog


 

  • SLWA Blog & wiki proliferation - any & all from SLWA

*

State Library

used to have no web stuff now 3 blogs, 8 wikis - ideas sharing for young ppls services, better beginnings blog to share ideas for early literacy support in public libraries. internal wikis for procedures; graduate wiki. New better begininings wiki, public libraries handbook wiki will replace old hardcopy handbook, aging workforce project and others.


 

  • Health Dept. - A Wiki as a collabrative tool in the Health Library network

*

WA health libraries wiki

Slides

until recently no web presence, now have 1 wiki, 9 independent libraries so wiki allows them to work collaboratively. Use internal one called docuwiki because can't host anything offsite. docuwiki doesn't require a database in the background. mostly just use it for document exchange, collaborative projects, procedures and reference info, LMS update files and manuals. Also using for tips, how tos, suggestions, product news, minutes. Mostly working well but some issues getting people to adopt it and learn using it and to overcome habit of using old ways.


 

  • Water Corporation - promoting the library with a Library Toolbar

 

 

Watercorp

promoting our library with a librarytoolbar that sits just under the toolbar in your web browser, searches library catalogue, quick links to email library and other resources. created using free demo of toolbar creating software called "toolbar studio"


 

  • What happened since my last unconference - Hoi (really love to hear about YOUR stories too!!)

 

Hoi

issues with using free software and website links due to fear of hackers and lack of understanding.
