What's a TeachMeet?
TeachMeets are informal gatherings of (originally) teachers, designed to allow the sharing of ideas. Library TeachMeets are for librarians who teach! Find out more about the history of Library TeachMeets in the article "TeachMeet: Librarians learning from each other" by Niamh Tumelty, Isla Kuhn and Katie Birkwood.
Upcoming Library TeachMeets:
Please post upcoming LibTeachMeets below in chronological order below - this is a free wiki so you will need to request to join:
You are cordially invited to "Getting the message across" Library Teachmeet at Staffordshire University on Tuesday, 18 March 2014 from 11:00 to 14:00. Refreshments will be provided! There is no charge for this event.
Come along as a presenter or an enthusiastic audience member - full details are here:
http://staffs-teachmeet.eventbrite.co.uk
This event will offer you the opportunity to share how you 'get your message across'. Examples can include promotion (of your service or yourself!), support/training for students or staff, working with academics or embedding your service. All staff are welcome at the event – the more the merrier!
Learn something new, be amazed, amused and enthused. This is an informal gathering of those curious about libraries, learning, teaching and education. Anyone can share great ideas they've used in their library, ask important questions or simply sign up to take part in learning conversations.
You can have the floor for 10 minutes to present to colleagues some creative and inspiring suggestions. You are invited to present (via powerpoint / prezi / talk / bingo / drawing / anything) for 10 minutes on the theme. Time is your only limit.
Grab a bite and a brew from us from 10.30am and lunch is included in the event. We go through until 2pm.
Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements.
Come and join the fun! Best wishes, Eleanor Johnston, Staffordshire University
Library Teachmeet Manchester Metropolitan University
Wednesday 22nd January 2014
This is a free event, sponsored by the CILIP Information Literacy Group, exploring anything and everything surrounding information and digital literacy. Examples could include inspiring session content, unique outreach and promotion, thrilling use of e-technologies or, how-on-earth you got embedded into courses – absolutely anything so long as it’s theme-related.
There’ll be a thrilling Swapshop during the afternoon, giving everybody (including those of you not speaking!) the chance to swap any materials you use during IL sessions – hand-outs, slides, games, blank cheques for good feedback etc. Please bring about 10 copies/items to swap with your fellow delegates!
Tea and tasty biscuits are available from 12.30pm, for a 1pm start, and 4pm end, followed by networking at a nearby café-bar, for those of you who don’t need to dash off. Refreshments will be available throughout the event.
