OCI/OEI Empowerment Project Team – insights and opportunities
The OCI/OEI Empowerment Project Team has placed some information on the C3LR, (Culture Change Community Learning Resources), SharePoint site that may be of interest to Library staff. These insights and opportunities were formed as a result of the team’s interviews with Learning Resources staff on the subject of empowerment.

If you have any questions about this, they can be addressed to Tim Stedman or me
