SI 643 Winter 2014 Blog. Bloggers in Library Land. What “counts” as a book club? A successful book club? Dempsey’s article made me think about the issue of scope when it comes to me thinking about University* wide book initiatives as well as the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti Reads Program. At the University of Wisconsin, all freshman are given a copy of the Go Big Read book. Other examples of “successful” book clubs on a large scale: Book It!

From the library (and mind) of an aspiring librarian. Week #14: The finale. April 16, 2014. April 16, 2014. So this is it, the last week! Looking back, I’m amazed at all that this class has done: we’ve created our own screencasts, we’ve hosted one-shot workshops, and we hosted our own webinars as well. That’s really something to be proud of, my fellow 643-ers! All of those activities will prove useful in our future careers, whatever they may be, I’m sure. It was nice working with you all. I think this we...

Last class, we did our One-Shot Workshops, and they went really well! I had been really nervous beforehand, but after I was done, I couldn’t even begin to imagine why because it was actually a lot of fun! The five we had were:. Collaboration between school, public, and academic librarians (which was mine and Mollie’s). An introduction to the World Digital Library.
