The Library’s Information Resources Working Group will be hosting an eBook forum on Friday 16th April 11am-1pm in Room 210.  All library staff welcome (just turn up on the day).

Topics covered will include: Major external challenges and trends (publisher landscape, new publisher models, cost escalation, shift to online teaching, OERs, student engagement with textbooks), current practice, the Library’s eTextbook statement and the Information Resources Policy.

The eBook landscape continues to evolve and change and so the challenge for us is continuing to adjust our practice in response.

Format of the session: lightning talks, Q&A, working in smaller groups using the Problem Solving Circles methodology.

Aim for the session: sharing of knowledge, ideas generation and identifying changes needed in time for Semester 2, 2021.
