The Library FedEx Day in 2 parts (Monday 27th and Wednesday 29th November)

An enthusiastic group of Library staff met this morning to make plans for a Library FedEx Day. The big idea with the FedEx Day concept is that participants decide for themselves what they will be working on, who they are going to work with, and how they are going to do it.

It’s not too late to join in for anyone else who is keen.

Here’s the plan: –
This week (13th – 16th November) Gather ideas for Library problems or innovations

Next week (20th – 24th November) Reflect on ideas, register teams and the innovation they’ll work on

The week after – The FedEx Day Pt. 1 Monday morning 27th November; Reflection and refocus then The FedEx Day Pt. 2 Wednesday afternoon 29th November

The week after that – Library report back – What the teams did : What the teams learned

If you’ve got an idea or a problem you can add it here use the code 765778
Managers will be asked to sponsor the innovations in their area of Library responsibility

The FedEx event is strictly contained within the 2 half days after which the work will be handed back to the Library

We discussed how teams would be formed and agreed that: –
Participants can register as a team of one, as a team or as an individual wanting to join with others to form a team.
Managers will be consulted after registration to check for any issues with work that might need to be covered
Teams may include participants who are not library staff but this is subject to agreement by the senior sponsor and must be negotiated in advance
