Kia ora koutou,

this project team of Margaret, Dave C, Swee Hoon, Saharu, Rebecca F., Donna T, Alison Mc (until April) and Lyndsay worked to design and deliver targeted Library inductions for all international students and all students new to UC.

Induction is a process and refers to experiences to develop “know how” and assisting students as they get started with doing their work and achieving their purpose for being here. As the team only began its work in January, we quickly realised that this objective needed a restricted scope for 2018, and we acknowledged that there was crossover with other Library groups. However, the achievements were considerable, and we made new relationships in other parts of UC in the process.

Read more at K:\LIBR-Library\Projects\Induction to the Library\Induction to the Library closure report 2018-09. This report will be tabled at a Library Managers’ Operational meeting in November.

Next steps: the team is in the process of reforming to address Phase Two and embed this year’s work into the 2019 year. There is space to accept a couple more team members if this is an area of the Library’s work that interests you.

FYI this objective was part of  2018 operational plan objective 2.3 Actively support students and staff to achieve the UC Graduate Attributes.
